Mikey Moore This is gritty hardcore soaked with filthy rock and roll.
Some of the most original music to come out of the Melbourne hardcore scene. Favorite track: Roaches.

Jagged 01:56
I borrowed time from a fleshless man He said this space moves just like the sand Go and lose yourself in your own mind That’s just what I did That’s just what I did I’d do it again and I know why It’s not evolution In all this time I have never changed I am still a reclusive ghost That wandered here just yesterday. I’ve got a place in my head A tiny island ive made A paradise of silence I’m washing up in my shame The grief that spoils the beauty of everything ive made Desperate waters, battered shores An age old bottle of anger I’ve grown to adore I love the bitter twist on my tongue The pulse it scores through my veins Its this build up of scars That blocks my pain Where’s my paradise? Have I washed away?

Outcast 01:52
The atmosphere evaporates Extracting fear through my face As my nerve deteriorates, Blood is drawn to the surface In evanescent eyes The pupil is morbid Established judgement Is like a natural contortion Distorting the signs and Infecting the conscience ill by design, is a sickening concept. Ironic congregations (As we all do the same) Like father, like son (Are we all to blame?) You look down on me In my pit of despair I think to myself one day I’ll be up there Outcast, Outlast (I don’t fucking need you) Outcast, Outlast (We don’t fucking need you)

Lustre 02:24
Eyes deep like ruby As they burn right through me And the shield of bone can only Fend so long, so long my only My enemy She burns like propane A lantern in the dark, she lights my way The oxygen I breathe, it fuels desire A bright red flame will take her place Eyes deep like ruby As they burn right through me And the shield of bone can only Fend so long, so long my only My enemy Worthless this stone, In life and in death Valued or not, I have nothing left!

One more foot and I’m done Digging eager, I’m stunned I’ve etched my mark on a wooden case Here lies another man, Encroached in the earth and sand I am beaten again, even to my own grave Harmonious bones, with a skeletal grin I don’t envy death or the place he is in Nor the state I’m in Empty, where I sorrow. Decay, where I marrow. If passion is purpose with that I’ll thrive . Too not believe in life, is to pursue your own death

Ramrod 01:51
Careless not thoughtless as I’m shaking his hand Dedicated to the purpose of uniting the brand A black tongue (Burnt out) A firm stare that sustained Blue knuckles grasping onto this wrench of pain I’m still fucking twisting A yellow belly, the machine continues to churn. Holding seems futile As I feel how it turns It rattles, It shakes If I move I will break A howling scream as it rises I’m holding it down Ruination is coming Do you hear how it sounds? Every evil intention I see how it aches Doom has a purpose It’s an unrivalled hate
6.
Roaches 01:42
Revolution on my mind It is going to take a long time If you bow down here with praise in hand You destroy hope for all this land Those beneath him fear what he has in store All his weath is stolemn from the honest and the poor A deep trench deterrant, an obstacle of war. This wicked motherfucker is who I’m looking for HAIL! HAIL! HAIL! to the king His power, his madness and all of his kin HAIL! HAIL! HAIL! to the king Step over horseman salvation is coming Revolution on my mind It is going to take a very very fucking long time HAIL! HAIL! HAIL! to the king His power, his madness and all of his kin HAIL! HAIL! HAIL! to the king Step over horseman salvation is coming

D.S.H.C 00:58
We are coming on ten years living in this space I have built a bunch of friends that I could never replace But there’s a new look plastered all over the place Disrespectful little bastards And a bitter taste You fucking “Hardcore Kids” You don’t know fucking shit about this You come to my show, in my face And talking the trash I tell you fucking what; Hard riff a’int nothing but thrash I’ve got the right to be!
