Brains 02:57
I am not like all the others You see I died before today But still I walk amongst the living Six feet blows where I should lay But I want your Brains I want your Brains Brains I've got thirst for your vital fluids Coursing through your blue veins My thoughts are few and far between My heart feels no pain Cuz I want your Brains I want your Brains Brains

A call in the night, you can’t make a sound and you’re left all along above the underground You’ve made a wrong turn, who can you turn to now? Just when you try to speak, a light turns on across the street. Come out from the cold and into a warm safe house You can’t outrun a loaded gun I wish it were the good old days like Richard Burton and the CIA. Who can you trust when they’re tapping your phone for lust? Just when you try to keep all your secrets nice and neat, out they come for everyone to repeat You can’t outrun a loaded gun; no you can’t outrun a loaded gun You gotta hide (cause they’re coming to get you) Hide (you’re looking over your shoulder) Somewhere they can’t find you Hide (there’s no turning back now) Hide (you’re on a one-way track now) Somewhere they can’t find you Middle eight With one eye open you try to sleep, but your lock is picked and this old floor creaks You move like a shadow and a knife never makes a sound Just when you have found the reason is when they’ll call you out for treason You’re front-page news, they all know your face now You can’t outrun a loaded gun; no you can’t outrun a loaded gun You gotta hide (cause they’re coming to get you) Hide (you’re looking over your shoulder) Somewhere they can’t find you Hide (there’s no turning back now) Hide (you’re on a one-way track now) Somewhere they can’t find you

I must be crazy To keep hangin’ around Hidin’ deep in my pockets Goin’ so far down And nothin’ is changin’ Same old sweet shit The girl’s got an uncle You better get used to it And yes, you better get used to it She’ll have you robbing them banks Driving them tanks And yes, you better get used to it And so, who are you? Who do you think you are? You think you can tame her Do you think you’re a star? ‘Cuz sooner or later You’re gonna crash down Don’t know exactly how But it’s gonna sound loud And yes, you better get used to it Knowing me and knowing you What more could we do? And yes, you better get used to it A girl’s gotta know If there’s a man in her life And if that won’t suffice They say two would be nice And yes, you better get used to it She’ll have you robbing them banks Driving them tanks And yes, you better get used to it You better get used to it [repeat]

The Closer 03:50
Upside down Here we stand Unaligned, uncompromised I won't cry Give you time You will see me Down the line You gotta call on the closer When the deal goes down Gotta put on a performance Inside out Shape shifter I pretend I'm myself I won't break down I don't have no special love For myself You gotta call on the closer When it's not for the faint of heart I will take on that persona You gotta call on the closer... Ooooooooh... [etc.]

about

Basic tracks for DIRTMOUTH II were recorded one night at Tim Jim's studio in Prospect, on Saturday Oct 22, 2022. Charles Austin recorded the full band playing these four songs together at The Shed (thanks Tim Jim!). Of the three guitars, Max is on the right, Curt is on the left and Jeff is in the middle (except, in some instances, where there are solos). Overdubs were recorded at Ocean Floor with Charles from November '22 to March '23. Mixing was a collaborative effort between the band and Charles. The EP was mastered by Francisco Lopes in April 2023. Artwork is by Willis Ryan

Atlantic Canada's dirtiest new band from Halifax's venerable independent music scene! DIRTMOUTH are a five piece, capital R rock ensemble. They take cues from 60's psych, 70's singer/songwriters, and from their own freewheelin' experimentation! Their first EP, dirtmouth I, was recorded at OCEANFLOOR HFX - AVAILABLE NOW!
