The loves I’ve lost, the hearts I’ve broken, Haunt me nightly. The things I’ve said, the things I’ve done, Haunt me nightly. Jesus didn't die for my sins; I will die for my own. My fathers words, my mothers tears, Haunt me nightly. I cried out for a saviour, but all I got was a monster. Be your own god.

Cold Cross 03:02
Born into this hell, baptised in boiling water, Disowned by the world; like a lamb to the slaughter. Don't pray for me, I forgive myself. He won't heal your hurt, he won't save you.

Burnt Eden 06:20
Dear Jesus, I hope I disappoint you, Dear Jesus, my hate is pure like sunshine. From the ashes of your bones we will rise, united in hate. We will rise. We will end our father’s wars, We will start one of our own, Against you.

Death Hymn 04:00
This is not your home It's just where your misery lives These sunsets Were not meant for you Too much silence Has left you hollow The silence stretched forever It shattered you inside Dear child You must fly the nest And soar high Then burn it down If no ones's saved you yet Then no one ever will And when I'm gone Tell my family That it hurt For the longest time

"A venomous, hateful piece of work" - robertmaddison

This self-recorded demo is full of bile-filled and spiteful metallic hardcore, mixing up down-tempo, mosh and crust parts. This is ugly music with passionate vocals, that can barely contain its own rage.

Originally released on tape by Church Of Fuck, and limited to 50 copies which sold out in just 2 days, and as a free download from Bandcamp. It was received positively, and has hailed comparisons to Cursed, American Nightmare, Converge, Rise And Fall and Fall Of Efrafa.

This CD version features the exclusive bonus track 'Death Hymn' which is a bleak acoustic number, and also has a video, created by Dom Moss, of Esoteric Youth / Night Terrors Records, which can be seen here www.youtube.com/watch?v=656dzwc7o94

The band recently broke up so it also now features 'World Past Saving', the last song they wrote/recorded, and 'Field Of Flames' the b-side from the tape version on Church Of Fuck featuring Dom Moss of Esoteric Youth, making it a Complete Discography.

Limited to just 100 copies, in a handmade gatefold CD sleeve, with artwork by Dia Artio, handscreened by Giant Iron Face and designed by ACDSleeve. The CDs have been stencilled/sprayed by the band.
