lyrics
I took the pills, it made it worse
I took the medication everybody said it works
I gave 'em money, they gave me lies
I took a couple hits, I think I'd rather fucking die
Modern medicine I think the sick is settin' in
So here we go again, I'll choke it down again
I'll cough it up and I'll wretch out a lung again
They said there's side effects, the worst is coming next
I'll close my eyes and I'll hope for the worst I guess
I took the pill from my doctor, now the night's getting darker
Now the night's getting longer, and I'm not feeling better
No I'm not feeling better, no I'm just feeling bitter
I took the medication everybody said it works
I gave 'em money, they gave me lies
I took a couple hits, I think I'd rather fucking die
Modern medicine I think the sick is settin' in
So here we go again, I'll choke it down again
I'll cough it up and I'll wretch out a lung again
They said there's side effects, the worst is coming next
I'll close my eyes and I'll hope for the worst I guess
I took the pill from my doctor, now the night's getting darker
Now the night's getting longer, and I'm not feeling better
No I'm not feeling better, no I'm just feeling bitter

hardcore punk, jazz, alien themes, kind of all my jams wrapped into a tight package. Intense, freaky, lean runtime but feels dense especially being sectioned into essentially 4 parts. Easily one of the best punk records of the decade so far. Also that drumming...holy shit

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!
