you had nothing at the end
but salt in your wounds
a bleak repetition
passed down to you
walled up and caved in
conquered with no cure
imprisoned in this
hibernationstate
hands up
map's amiss
land's full
lines in earth's chest
cast out and
blurred in orbit
nowhered somewhere
on the margins
captured relics
in your grips
from the pocket of history
tangled legs
conjured to bury
busted and glowing
in the spaces
on the pavement
a relief of a face
tolerance is demolishing
itself in its own name
absent and astray
waste has nested
implausible to stomach
listless enough
to sleep it off
without ending
swallowed by a fissure
the current rushes in us
exhausted untamed and flooded
gathering lies straight through a cut in the cables
future's been collapsing
heaved headed
it's where we're heading

Sleep Shock

sleep estranged
stolen doze
the nights are staged
another's face
standing in
voices call out
weather distance
nameless now
the phrase escapes
it's not enough
the price was paid
for waking up
shocked to morning
less and less
myths in darkness
are disappearing
heady in rest
panic settles
and colonizes
the weight is against you
razing the past you've grown
shorted out and thread-barren
leveled electric
a vision of excess
will learn you a lesson
time will fuck you
time will fuck you man

Misogamist
02:41
|
|
||
|
false tradition
explained away
familiar trap
domestic stage
stumbled in
your imprisonment
a cell of meaning
is meaningless
worth its weight
in dead ethic
the paper game
the looming exit
the puzzled other
never coupled
an origin in piss
built atop the pillar
cheated death while dealing it
time vampire
quit yet you're not finished
the milk days expire

Unknowing The End
04:25
|
|

|
you put the con in context
heavy cost of the unrest
you put the past in it's place
conditioned to disconnect
unknowing wasted life's work
been in
a pain
feeding
truth at knife point
in shrouded pages
some lurid science gives you
control
of guilt
clouded
in chronologic tidal waves
agency withheld
always at arms-length
grazing fingertips
or weaving right through them
naming the unnamed
stoned awakening
upened daydream
aghast and slaved away

French Screamoの中でも2000年代を代表する存在、Daitroの2009年アルバム『Y』が2020年に再発! どうやら2000年代再評価の流れは止まりそうにない。だが当時の激情バンド達の扱いを思うとようやくその評価軸が定まったようにも思う。むしろDaitroの表現、Funeral Dinerの表現、そしてkillieの表現の根底に共鳴していたものが2010年代のポリコレ時代を経て価値を取り戻しているようにすら感じる。白か黒か、正義か悪か、その先にお互いが理解しあえる世界は訪れるのか?それは我々ひとりひとりの行動次第、それぞれの日々の蓄積。その一歩を歩み出すことだ。表現の根底にある思想、主張を音に落とし込む過程において彼らの進化は必然だったと思う。当たり前のメッセージを伝えるために、遠回りをしながら激情を振るいにかけていく。最後まで個人を信じる彼らの表現は美しく儚い。
