  • vignettes of despondency/a life alimentaire [vinyl]
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Truly two sides to every story with this one.

    10 original punk songs recorded via contributions from all over the globe, produced and arranged by Jay Whalley and Clem Bennett at The Pet Food Factory. From the mentally questionable mind of Matt Downey (Cousin Betty, Death Mattel).

    The alternate side is the same 10 songs reimagined as pristine Jazz. Courtesy of the master-level skills of Andrew Scott (The Pocket Trio) the songs are recognisable but disparately brilliant.

    Includes download code.

    Tracklist:

    1. I Did a Thing
    2. Dear Jurisprudence
    3. Ten Hut!
    4. Hate Will Own You
    5. Goodies and Baddies
    6. Is There a German Expression For This?
    7. Everything Is Fine
    8. You Get To Be 50
    9. E-Racing
    10. Worth

lyrics

I spent a very long time wishing you were dead, but hate can own you
I wanted to cut away your skin with an arsenic ice-pick, but hate can own you
I wanted to fuck your life like you once fucked mine, but hate can own you
I’m with John I agree anger is an energy, but hate can own
Because you’re not worth the hypotension
I’ve got a life that wants me sound
Just knowing that you will die alone in knots
suits us both down to the ground
I wish activated kids in Antifa well but take care because hate can own you
I hope the hi-vis vests on the Parisian rues know that hate can own you
To the throng fighting wrong on the streets of Hong Kong be careful, hate can own you
I’m with John I agree anger is an energy, but hate can own

It can fester and manifest as something infectious I have learned
but if you’ll feel better off throwing that Molotov then just careful not to get burned

Because you’re not worth the hypotension
I’ve got a life that wants me sound
Just knowing that you will die alone in knots
suits us both down to the ground

LITTER Sydney, Australia

Originally formed in 2014 for a period of 1 month of shows, reformed with a new line-up and new album in 2022. This unique punk band is the brainchild of Matt Downey (Cousin Betty/Death Mattel). The new album is a two-sided exploration of cross genres, an effort to see if content is universal or exclusive to a particular tribe. ... more
