All these people Falling on their knees Life's at our throats Choke Heads to the floor sore Torches you all adorn Blank stares take her nowhere In the midst of denial For your truth to behold now Breathe in my little liar Our ears to the pavement Did we run out of enslavement Whoa no Behind their eyes lie We realize - ize No truth! In you! Behind their eyes lie We realize - ize No truth! In you! She has her desires Her eyes are wired Sealed my fate to oh just salivate Demonize These sedentary lives Now we're living in In the midst of denial Justify my discontent Breathe in this omnipresence Blank stares take her nowhere Shoving our fist to the sky In time we realize Behind their eyes lie We realize - ize No truth! In you! (x4)

Severed Ties 03:47
Shift the pace Opened eyes Severed ties And so have I (x2) And so have I I’ve been clinging for so long Always been so headstrong When it felt so oh wrong Back in her day Stinging still remains Such a shame she’s so lost Lapping up this bleak awe Lapping up this bleak awe Shift the pace Opened eyes Severed Ties And so have I (x2) And so have I I’ve been clinging for far too long Always knew we’d go wrong When you left at what cost Back in her day Stinging still remains Such a shame she’s so lost Lapping up this bleak awe Lapping up this bleak awe Shift the pace Opened eyes Severed ties And so have I (x2) And so have I I just want to see through this Never going back I just want to live through this Going down the abyss (x2) Shift the pace Opened eyes Severed ties And so have I (x2) And so have I

Pardon 03:23
Wings beneath us Singed to their tips Words we’ll never learn Burned into their eyelids Absorb what you’re told It’s all you know But the lies are justified By your demise Absorb what you’re told It’s all you know But the lies are justified All just to paralyze you Are you forgiven Are you wicked (x2) Wicked Born to bear the wrath In this sunken mischief Sea of bullshit Behold the pedestal Absorb what you’re told It’s all you know But the lies are justified By your demise Absorb what you’re told It’s all you know But the lies are justified All just to paralyze you Are you forgiven? Are you wicked? (x2) Wicked! Are you forgiven? Are you wicked? (x2) Wicked!

I just want to go outside and play with my friends But misinformation causes severe unrest All over the unknown pavement Stop Oblivion in the holds of a liar Can only salivate in my mire Your lips drip venom Ensnared in the hazes of my mind Bleak unrest All over you! Sovereign! We get what you deserve Sovereign! Oh the sky Open wide for me For me, for me, for me

about

Pleasure Venom's first full-length, Rebirth/Return, surges forth with new energy as the band hones their signature sound and pushes it a step further. The EP is also their first release featuring the eviscerating riffs of guitarist Chase Dungan and pummeling bass of Jordan Emmert, both bringing fresh ears to the group. Screaming guitar laid over pounding rhythm on burners “We Get What You Deserve” and “Daunt” are in contrast to groove-heavy tracks like “Peril” and “Acidity,” showing the band having as much fun in the pocket as they do in the pit, while more melodic pieces “Sucker,” “Lose It,” and “Behind Their Eyes” demonstrate a knack for emotive melodrama as well. And as ever, the record is held together by Audrey’s distinctive lyricism and inimitable vocal chops as she takes a more introspective turn. Long-standing drummer Thomas Valles's relentless hammering carries it all home. Ringo Deathstarr’s Elliott Frazier engineered and produced the joint, his second with the group after 2018's Self-Titled EP.
