Alive for fleeting, subtle thrill
Inhale the air atop the hill
Before my rock rolls back down to shadows
An aced audition for a play
That spans a birth til Judgement Day
We watch the role dissolve to shadows
I took a long walk through a short trap door
I ventured out knowing that I would be washed to the shore
I took a long walk through a short trap door
A day's work gone to cinders, who could ever want more?
Alive for fleeting, subtle thrill
Inhale the air atop the hill
Before my rock rolls back down to shadows
I long for hands to lift the veil
And make the promise bound to fail
To God, who’s long been in the shadows
For the first time, again and again
For the first time, again and again
I took a long walk through a short trap door
I ventured out knowing that I would be washed to the shore
I took a long walk through a short trap door
A day's work gone to cinders, who could ever want more?

Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long.

A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many
great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them! perpendikel
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
