the truth is always a weapon in your enemies' hands without thought, we all jump to take a second chance i will deprive you of my most precious secrets this cup is filled with my imperfections overflowing with the worst intentions if there was an exit i'd be the first to go to laugh and say i told you so for each word there's one forgotten for each thought a memory rotten is life death in its purest form? its not the best time for your lazy mourns we didn't choose to be put here that doesn't mean you should disappear the world makes me hate everything can't flush these thoughts down the kitchen sink the more i age the less i can bare it looks like i was a little less than prepared we think too much, but not enough always ending up at we're all fucked you cannot change what is wrong with words to a song

If I happened to decide, that I wanted more than this. Feeling angry young and helpless. Undecided and incomplete, misguided and stuck in concrete. Give me an option to breath. Can I say, can I even move at all? I'm always circling the points that I'm trying to make, and you're always looking for a high to take you from this place. Grey skies, agriculture compromised, hunger and heartache my tests of size. They're walking heavy on thinning lines, blurring them all the time. I need something to hide behind, just something to hide behind.

about

"New Jersey 4 piece Casual’s opener Poison Counter drips with passive aggression and more unequivocally emo lyrics – complete with neat college stoner philosophies (“is life death in its purest form”) an anxiety loop written into words, and vocals that sit back and thread through simple chunky chords. Changes as predictable as the next descent into another spiral of self-defeatism: “for each word there’s one forgotten/for each thought a memory rotten”. The riff in Ex-Quaterback Material is wistful and the vocals rougher, higher, angrier, more to hang off. Guitar stutters, drums circle – group vocals pull the sound together, layer, shift, and the sound winds down, like shoulders sagging.

Good if you like straightforward American pop-punky emo. Bouncy in rhythm, lyrics turned inwards, stories spiralling just out of grasp. Turn it up and shout it out. Probably throw beer around." - Zine and Not Heard
