Ioannis Valiakos Ok, picture this. If Kurt Cobain had a bigger affection for Scratch Acid and Big Black than he did for the Pixies, then the songs on Insecticide would sound like this EP by Crooked Spine. Menacing guitar riffs and vocals, and a rhythm section that is solid as a rock. Many extra kudos for the killer cover by Shipping News (which I 'd never known before, but whom I 'd be definitely looking up). Don't sleep on this EP, give it a listen today, grab a copy yesterday! Great stuff! Favorite track: The Delicate (Shipping News).

Small sliver of moon Up above Hangzhou I'm dwarfed by the buildings In their neon glow Guard up at all times Split when trouble shows When I got nowhere to run to Where will I go? The money's coming in Its 2003 I look for cover Beneath a Shanghai white oak tree Guard up at all times In the shadow of the Bund Theres so many exits But nowhere to run

Sense of loss so real that it feels like a blow Fist to my face when I think about what happened All of his here hiding out from the compound because the truth don't set us free You spit in my eye But he was too far gone when you found him in the allow Feel like a chalk outline where a body used to be All of his here hiding out from the compound Still watching my back every step that I take All of us here hiding out from the compound because the truth... You spit in my eye

Clair came in breathing fire for the first time in months She's be out there in Montana underneath a true believer sun Told us all about the end of days Said it all got sketchy when they said she had to pay Now she's back, get her head in the game The boys are back in town but the town just ain't the same Thats when she got down to the matter at hand Said she a plan to put some money in our hands Took a little while to get into it Crossed a couple lines just thinking 'bout it But she said she's got it good Just to make it understood She looked at me and said "do you wanna make some money kid? Yeah do you wanna make some money kid" Cause I've been in a daze for days But I still no when to wakeup for a call that pays So if you're asking if I'm crazy enough to do it, well? Took a little while to get into it Crossed a couple lines just thinking 'bout it But she made it understood that she's got it worked out good And I'm backed in a corner Working for my money but my money brings me down Now you're acting like a tough guy, what you gonna now?

Last set foot on this soil 17 years ago Come back to find A revolution you don't know All those years in London banquet drinks held aloft Disadvantage of living Growing old but now growing soft Out in the foothills You still keep 'em on their toes Armored and ready Corsica below Spit at an emperor When he's just a young man Now you're too far gone To see you backed the wrong plan And those ideals of freedom They all melt away Defend old oppressions 'till your dying day Out in the foothills You still keep 'em on their toes Armored and ready Corsica below Out in the foothills All raring to go Armored and ready Corsica below
