I Shall Not Survive Another Winter

Sowing nothing, reaping nothingness Barely navigating through this fucking mess A permanent vortex; a veil of contempt Barely enshrouding endless resentment Justification for permanent immersion In this blind rage that is my inertia The sadness returns once you burn off the hate Until you’re proven finite, loathing, abominate

Never Was 06:01
Without understanding Of what it could have been It’s been torn from within my reach Gutting me from within I yearned to be excited Something positive was ahead Though what it was, an oasis I have been misled again instead Futile dreams, worthless thoughts Basing my life on an impossible cause But how can there be nothing left of something that there never was? Every day I grasp for truth Struggling to live; to be satisfied Though no matter what my palm holds Never am I gratified No matter what I fucking say Or how many times I’ve tried Nothing inside me will settle to normal Until the hindrance between us has fucking died Hateful daydreams, restless nights Surviving on remnants of our cause But how can there be nothing left of something that there never was?

You think something new is coming Anticipation rotting you Old plywood under a bed of moss stronger than your inner structure Something is lurking, Leviathan undertow Dragging you to death from below Internal breakdown, all systems have failed Humanity’s problems pale in comparison to what lies inside A solitary human once their mind has died You still think it’s coming but it’s not Simply continue to rot. Too cold to kill Trapped by old concepts As the dim sun sets for another cold night Alone. Awake. Trapped inside this place I call my home.

about

GRIDFAILURE’s post-apocalyptic style of horror merges influences of jazz, world music, hardcore, and dark ambient music into a confrontational contagion on I Shall Not Survive Another Winter. To be released on the Fall Equinox, each song on the record grows longer than the one before, creator David Brenner delivering tension and paranoia through effects-soaked guitars, bass, vocals, keyboards, synth, harmonica, field recordings, drums and percussion, and more, also handling the recording and artwork. Guest henchpersons include Richard Muller (Vise Massacre, The Third Kind, Future Hunter), BJ Allen (Full Scale Riot), Benjamin Levitt (Megalophobe), Robert Levitt, Christian Molenaar (Those Darn Gnomes), and Mark Steuer (Those Darn Gnomes).
