lyrics
i met you in the woods
saved me from myself
descended underground
the horror, the horror
i witnessed the dispair
the ferry man on the shore
two pennys on my eyes
i will, i will
donned my robe of black
followed every step
the circle hears the screams
the restless, the restless
crossed the river of souls
unconscious in my dream
lucifer awaits
blackened soul
no rest for the damned
the screams i can hear
a quest for the truth
there is no reprise
no saviour my own soul
dark laughter in thier eyes
the inferno, the inferno

Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
This Oakland group pulls no punches, serving up a hard-hitting punk album that recalls the blistering brilliance of Refused. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2020
