One blurry moment
One chance to get it right
Concentration, impossible to achieve
A hand reaches out and grabs me
Barely afloat and I’m caught in the rope that was thrown out half-assed on a prayer
Let me sink down
Way down under
Don’t know if I’ll ever make it over there
Don’t wanna know if I’ll be here tomorrow
Stitches and dives
You know you’re alive when pain is all you feel
When I’ve been scrapped, I get my boots strapped on for the road ahead goes on for now
No matter what it is now, everything is going to be alright
From angst to apathy
Self-loathing homicidal rage
I’ve gripped so tight my hands are bleeding
Lobotomy would make me feel alright
Last place in competition
I’ve got no ambition to make it in your world
Your design is fundamentally screwed
A month on the streets would do you good
Stitches and dives
You know you’re alive when pain is all you feel
When I’ve been scrapped, I get my boots strapped on for the road ahead goes on for now
No matter what it is now, everything is going to be alright
Though I may never understand
Let me go
Let me down
Let me fall to the ground
I will rise
I will rise
No comprehension for failure, no compromise
As sure as the sun in the sky
This is ATD firing on all cylinders creatively. Hardcore, punk jumping shredders, anthemic, gang chant-y street punk--this album is all muscle. 'A Total Disappointment' is what a 20 minute powder keg sounds like. thewreckedneck
This is one of the best albums to come out last year. Rarely does a modern day hardcore band write something this catchy and solid all the way through. 10/10 robolitious
On their debut record, the London hardcore upstarts cross-up mosh-ready fare with melancholic ambient passages, weeping guitars, and virtuosic vocal harmonies, but its romantic veneer is much more complicated than it seems. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 30, 2019
