Take as Needed for Pain

A suffocating fusion of New Orleans blues and hardcore punk. Recorded in an abandoned department store, it sounds like a slow-motion breakdown in a humid basement.

It sounds like Tony Iommi drowning in a bathtub full of dirty needles and cheap whiskey.

A relentlessly bitter and broken-down atmosphere that finds a strange, swinging groove in the midst of squalor.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The piercing wall of feedback that introduces Blank before the drums collapse into a slow, agonizing crawl.
The transition from the frantic punk energy of Shoplift into the suffocating, bluesy weight of the mid-album tracks.
The way the title track drags its riffs like heavy chains, punctuated by Mike Williams' desperate, indecipherable rants.
