Kiss of death You’re so unaware Yet you know your evil Will come Evil will come, Come, come Evil will come. We’re here to watch The wicker burn. It’s caustic It’s glowing white Hot It’s caustic Hey and it’s done Fourteen years we’ve Seen one side on The dice of many. Fourteen years we’ve Seen one side Now one side is Too much.
2.
Your white walls We divide, we divide. Four white cells Unite to make Something better. Your white walls Not too tall, Foothold to scale. Former voices can Be heard All across the Forehead plains. Cruel fiction, this is Not my cruel fiction Cruel fiction, Cruel Fiction writes history. You’d re-write history If you could. Oh be calm, Oh be calm, Oh be calm already

Black Bones Stress on the sole, The ligaments. The flesh, the flesh And bones The strength of Your arms, The aim of your heart Shatters tiny parts. This is your art, Die for your art. This structure arcs and Breaks your... Just when you think You’re all washed out Colours run like life’s Sweat endeavours. Take a pinch Of your skin Take a pinch because there’s nothing else.

Playing this game Doesn’t lead anywhere Spending your time to care If everything is now going well You seem to be scared Of sharing your pain, How can you keep All these things for yourself? Nobody could win your trust and, And you do not care. So tell me what you’ve got to win then? Only pain! As a border Which you’d be the keeper, Appearances are safe Nobody would think to cross the line. Maybe sometimes You wonder why, Why you cannot tell This single word to free yourself. Trust me So please let me in. It’s not a matter of weakness. Why are you still scared?

Does anyone know What happens in your head? You’re cheating. Your body’s here But your mind is now escaped As a mirage, you leave our planet again. Nobody questioned, nobody questioned yet. “Complicated”, that’s the word you said With your finger you drew a line We couldn’t cross your mind. Behind your eyes I can see this heaven Your own shell to keep you out of this world. Baring teeth when someone comes too close. You know the world is wicked, Pushed against your own wall. Without regrets you leave our planet again. As a mirage, we’re chasing a mirage.

5 track Red vinyl 7" Limited to 300 copies.
Brassneck Records exclusive sleeve limited to 75 stickered / hand-numbered copies. Other un-stickered sleeve colours also available.

Following on from Chestnut Road's debut LP earlier this year, this 7" sees 2 brand new songs that are their best yet. Staying true to the style that we love there is plenty of Leatherface, Husker Du, Broccoli, Hooton 3 Car, etc worship going on here.

This is New Alaska's debut vinyl release and sees 3 of the songs from their amazing demo finally pressed on wax where they belong. Solid post hardcore with a heavy Dischord influence and a nod to bands such as Fugazi, Deerhoof, Shudder To Think, etc.
