    First pressing of 'The Perfect Violence', our debut album. Recorded together but apart in lockdown isolation and fizzing with mythical pop culture references and gothic dreams...A self published, defiant and dreamy introduction to a band that invite you to dance wildly in the night with the dark old things.

lyrics

We lay together
But you don’t feel me
Except in the drop

In room temperature
That chill in the air
That kisses your bones

You start to shiver
Need to warm yourself
And step into the day

I follow you outside
And I evaporate
Flit into the shadows

I pick up dry leaves
And I can make them dance
In the street
In the street
just the way
Just the way
I long to dance with you

I brush my hand against your face
And see the tiny hairs
On the back of your neck rise
I will wait for you forever
In the corner of your eye
Until the day the dead rise

Sometimes you hold
Your breath
And I convince my self
That maybe you have seen me

The ghost of my heart flutters
Into a whisper of a blush

I brush my hand against your face
And see the tiny hairs
On the back of your neck rise
I will wait for you forever
In the corner of your eye
Until the day the dead rise

I pick up dry leaves
And I can make them dance
I pick up dry leaves
And I can make them dance
In the street
In the street just the way
I long to dance with you
In the street
In the street just the way
I long to dance with you
I long to dance
with you
