Volty Being a huge Dark Souls fan I thank Vaati for working with Tanuki (then Tanooki Suit) and Lordvessel being born, which led to me getting to know this EP.

Every song is amazing and for some reason Oh My Stars has made me tear up on several occasions. When music reaches and touches you in this way, you know it's done right and it's special.

Thank you Tanuki. Favorite track: Lordvessel.

Shun-Li About 4 years ago, a good friend of mine introduced me to an indie rock band named Tanooki Suit. I couldn't be more grateful to him for doing so as I would soon become a fan of that band's music.

There's something about the way you write your lyrics, whether it's about an pop culture or your own life experiences, that breathes life and emotion into your music. And that's such a powerful talent to have as an artist!

And that's why I became a fan! :) Favorite track: Bones.

Bones 03:40
This will end in blood Only these bones can stem this flood These quiet walls descend into a restless Earth And build for me this shallow tomb An empty bed; I toss and turn in tangled sheets Keep me locked inside my head I awoke With nothing more than blood and bones I've been dying to take this And cut it to pieces I can't fight this feeling any longer It constantly haunts me And I can't sleep at night I don't ever want to close my eyes Who knows what hides within the corners of this space All the hurt I can't erase And in my dreams My teeth fall out The silence of this room is deafening I long to scream out loud but always forget to breathe My pulse; it pushes and pulls While my heart is skipping beats again My bones; a prison and a home And I've never owned the key The night gets cold My eyes grow tired and old And I fall Like my empty glass of Aperol And I'll never sleep at night I'll never want to close my eyes I'll dig another hole Bury these bones

I am an unhappy man I was built with no purpose beyond just to satisfy The tireless thoughts of these curious minds But what went wrong They sought to tear me apart They tried to stop this mechanical heart of mine I was never enough to ever be loved in his eyes Have you forgotten me Did you erase what you've done How could anyone Accept a broken son Hope rides alone There's now another one like me Cradled in my father's arms Like the golden boy he's built to be Someday, somehow, someway I will make them pay for all of his mistakes What is life What right has he have to decide Am I so much of a failure in his mind I am more than he could ever be I proudly wear his disgrace Go on and abandon me Erase every trace Set fire to everything Let the mad doctor rebuild me There's no going back Let him arm me to the teeth I bring hell with me On broken wings Is there no joy to be found in this life I no longer can call it mine It's no longer mine

Kaiju 03:41
Sound the alarm There's been a containment breach Initiate the lockdown Terminate the class-D's Pile bodies, build a barricade And pray it keeps these things at bay Don't look away from the sculpture Just try not the blink And never avert your eyes It dresses your neck with its arms Snaps at the base Severing your spine I've never known fear quite like this If I could forget this all I would Sound the alarm I'm not running away from these monsters I'm arming this bomb underneath Making peace with the fact this'll be the death of me This thing just won't stay dead A thousand eyes grow out the back of its head You would refuse my gift Some semblance of peace and warmth before your death He wears a shadowy shroud Consuming everything not washed by light Not even pictures are safe Don't stare at its face The size of this sight is expanding The pen carries your hand as you write The voice at the end of the phone Cries to be saved before it's replaced This room is alive and breathing Much like this mechanical mess But who can speak for the thing we forget Cut all the losses There's no escaping this The blood will run like a river of red through these halls We fight for life and light But beg for death before the end I bought all the time that I can To get you out alive If you're hearing this It means that we'll all go down together Oh captain, my captain I'm not waiting to die I've never liked long goodbyes

Oh, My Stars 03:15
Miles across this state And hours away Looking for a reason to sing Like nobody's listening to me My dear friend Oh, how I've longed for us to live again This distance between us Has never been to great to keep Our voices from dancing together I fall in love with the world all over again Wrapped in the sound That's greater than the sum of all our parts And everything that we were taught I've put on mileage Like a Japanese automobile They tell me Give it up, give up the ghost I can't let go, it's all I've ever known Of life and love and everything that's Ever meant anything to me Oh, my stars and garters What if I were to open my hands And keep my arms held wide I would make you believe That a boy can fly Oh, my stars Is a name I won't forget

Lordvessel 03:36
Well what have we here Is it a pilgrim from the asylum Carried aloft By a friend to our lady of sin Where to begin Listen well, boy There are two bells to ring The parish above The blighted bog found deep below And their guardians Still thirst for your cursed blood Drop your sign For the brothers in need to find I will walk through the fog As I welcome death I will pillage these bodies I will feed to the fire These shards of a soul A magnificent father In a desperate attempt To stave off the end of his age He runs himself hollow And burns all his knights alive A shell of his former self They lock him away Far beneath this crumbling shrine A radiant sun Forged by the feeble hands of a child Not fit for his throne A clever deceit To make everyone believe The lords haven't left them behind Like a moth Flittering towards a flame Vereor nox If only I could be so grossly incandescent I will march through the dark Like the hero before me I have died many times I'm replete with humanity
