Broke as a joke and I’m still laughing
Scraping by on the skin of my skull
Corner store breakfasts and fast food lunches
I’m livin’ the dream
Paycheck to paycheck to paycheck
5 figures dressed in red
I’m livin’ the dream
I’m livin’ the dream
Feel the pounding of the waves
Like wind through a keyhole
Born to feel the constant crave
And never in control
Feel the pounding of the waves
Like wind through a keyhole
With the night-talkers, glowing in the dark
Trading ghosts and doing it in the park
Tall-boys, shiny and cold
Kings & Queens without halos
I’m livin’ the dream
Fruit flies, mai-tais, we never close our eyes
I’m livin’ the dream
Close your eyes we’re under the lids
Selling shadows to feed the substance
Feel the pounding under your lids
Tonight doesn’t know the pretense
Across their second full-length, the London post-punks offer up thrumming motoriks, industrial tones, and sullen sing-a-longs in abundance. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 17, 2024
The soaring arcs of post-rock, the punchy rhythms of post-hardcore, and the jagged lines of post-punk all join on the latest from Aversions. Bandcamp New & Notable May 2, 2023
