Brillant EP for those who like their rock tunes (mel)low. Lots of pretty ear candy besides the regular instruments.
Favorite track: Sometimes Your Salvation Hunts You Down.

band has become one of the top (old school / real) screamoish/post-punk/hardcore or emo-violence or what the fuck ever bands around this poopy planet.
Concerns, concern. We surround ourselves with work. Lulling each other to sleep, we’re only putting off the dawn.
Concerns, concerns. We bounced ideas off of one another. What we see around us is dust, we work ourselves into it.
Concerns concerned. What we see around us is dirt. What we put faith in is a construct, we can't break away from it.
Can't you feel your body rust? Your mind is gaining weight, growing swollen. Your hands are arthritic.
Tough love is a timed response. I believe in you, you will do as I have done.
They'll take care of me.
Travel under street lamps, Rot under fluorescents. Words fill up my mouth, I begin choking on the sediment.
"I hope you smile like that in twenty years." I hope you find your sense of safety. A plea came from a vagrant and the years came with it.
One down for old masters. One down for new mentality. One down for youth’s ideals. One down.

A rollercoaster of rage-crying emotion sure to send you over the edge if you're not careful. Gotta love Old Gray and all the emo ragers they write for us. Mikey
