lyrics

Rusty Axe Through Aaron Turner's Head

Short-haired clean-shirts posing in a row,
Epic structures, big crescendos,
All in flannel and twenty pedals deep,
Ready to rock their bland fans to sleep.
Bullshit post-rock trend....
Loud-quiet-loud-quiet obvious style,
Gatefold double-vinyl’s stacked in a pile,
Po-faced noodling that never seems to end,
Boring bullshit post-rock trend....
Songs so long that they ran out of tape,
Slavishly copying the bands they ape,
Isis, Jesu, Red Sparrows,
Boring bullshit.
Mogwai, Pelican, Godspeed! and Mono,
Hundreds of clones by this time tomorrow,
You say this style is supposed to be epic,
I find it so unoriginal its pathetic!
Post-rock bullshit....
Emotional sound that’s so contrived,
Top notch gear but boring live,
Soon enough this shit will be dead,
Rusty axe through Aaron Turner's head.
