hope that distance makes the difference six weeks, never sleep I can't leave everything which is the flesh? which is the cancer? I can carry myself road maps broken paths no compromise days past cold flash every sunrise
2.	Born Ready 04:46	lyrics	buy track
lay in bed for weeks how'd you get here? these dreams are bleak they don't own you I know I've failed again and again where do you go to forget? buried in myself can't call for help frozen in step locked into death give me something to need give me someone give me air to breathe I can't breathe
3.	Starstuff 02:34	lyrics	buy track
I have a death wish I thought I outgrew The methods you left with I couldn't outdo The message you gave crawled up my spine Glued itself to my mind I don't want to know that you're alone Peace in the grave / no rest in my head Nothing is quiet now that you're dead Slam into reverse / erase the stain Half of a memory / twice the pain
4.	Tortured Mess 04:11	lyrics	buy track
Torpid days / wasting away Ancient age / weaknesses slain Tortured mess / laid to rest Old Crow's doom / death's vacuum

Drink or Die Records / Headdress Records

Love Moon is a psych-sludge band from Oakland, CA. Bred in the Midwest, Love Moon relocated from Indianapolis to The Bay Area in the Summer of 2014. Having established a national basement reputation with their previous band, Male Bondage, Love Moon (named after the now out of print Male Bondage LP) is poised to annihilate West Coast eardrums with superfluous amplification and celestial catchiness. With influences taken from vintage heaviness (The Melvins, Black Sabbath) mixed with more contemporary reflections (MBV, Torche) Love Moon creates a wall of noise that sounds oddly familiar but remains otherworldly. Tour-hards by nature, it is inevitable that Love Moon will eventually be hauling an excessive number of amps into your town, drinking most of the beers, and leaving a weird, foggy, but ringing memory in your ears and hearts.

This one really goes deep. Tremendously heavy and bleak, yet crushingly groovy as well. You can easily see these guys destroying any venue they'd hit live with this. The heavy hitting slow to mid-tempo tunes are sort of tranceinducing. It's very easy to listen to it multiple times in a row or even get lost in it totally. mourner
