Inspired by Palestinian freedom songs, the Passover Haggadah, and Q And Not U's "Soft Pyramids"
lyrics
Whose god is whispering in my ear about all the things that I am owed?
Odometer’s pulse with each stomp on the pedal
The kingdom's locked after we open up the floodgates
The next plague comes five-fold
Twin H-A-R-D P-Y-R-amid schemes reflect across an ocean
From the soda to the stream, the sea to the shining sea
And a couple bushels full of chickpeas
All my comfort rests in your blood, coiled up like a rattlesnake
Dam, Va'esh, V'timrot Ashan
Hey that's plenty, thanks, dayenu
The next plague is two-hundred and fifty fold
Each knuckle clears more space for sprawl
With a strong arm, and an outstretched hand
All the days of your life, a claim on the land
The mix of shoegaze, punk, and noise from this Seattle band is notable for its urgency and bright, foregrounded vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 9, 2023
