    The third Sharks' Teeth record to come out in 2019 is their best work of the year so far. The title of the record taken from the title of the third track from their first release of the year, "Demon Canal". The cohesion between the first two releases is clear, combining the rich synth pads of, "Demon Canal" with the down tempo, intimate songwriting of, "Brighter Candle" and many other Sharks' Teeth records we've come to love. The tape medium suits this record exceptionally well, giving warmth to the already breathy tones of the vocals and the delicate, lofi sounds of the drums. The design of the tape was made to not interfere with the beautiful album artwork from Blake Bumpus and the obi strip serves to help in this regard. It strongly holds the cassette packaging together while conveying all the information one needs for the record.

    Mastered for tape by the Banana Tapes in-house engineer and dubbed at normal speed to ensure highest possible audio quality, each tape is hand made by the Banana Tapes crew in Nashville, TN. Edition of 50, only available while supplies last.

Janus 03:18
oh Janus my plans was to settle down for the thou sandth time if you’re behind this just tell me now if my heart is part of his i should be proud and for now trust Janus understand what it’s not about i’ve had it to here with the sinking doubt that I’m bound to inhabit a sick planet and watch it drown i’ll admit it i panicked and let the pain keep me down but lost faith is no help if everything counts both hands tired peeling it’s clear then i’m losing sight of the notion that it's part of my bright plan courage thats lost in a night spent blaming yourself not the acid angrily planning my exit i am a part of his toxic attitude too

Rosebud 01:59
the more you change it still doesn't go away they didn't tell ya the bigger problem ignoring pain i shouldn't say you should go away and let me break down to mend in place under the table that look on your face could say i'm supposed to it's not a game i wouldn't play you you're losing faith i'll make it up to you if i could escape in the ways you pay to then bask in pain i'll save some for you

Gold Leaf 02:34
gold leaf on a pale design hold me for the thousandth time i'm weak from the balanced high dissolving in my heart long week for the talents like calling just to tell us hi i leave the intentions i devote and glow inside of showing through the palest eyes that sleep doesn't count if i'm powerless without weed in my inclosing body's cycle palm leaf that reminds me why i'm pulsing and still alive hot lead that's dissolving my pain i lived inside of

iI'm only telling you the truth to hide behind my answer i'm only telling you the truth so i can sleep and finally get a good night like an adult in a room designed to be so clever i'm only telling you the truth that bothers me and how i wanted to die with all of this time left i can see violets all along the window from the car with all of this time left all i can see diamonds she can't but wants to try to have a really good time

Great Pith 02:26
this thought could change the body's type my hope dissolves and takes the shape of his heart is split in two the side you're always on won't grow can't chill at most i stay because i love you does that change? no way i think about you all damn night and i cry when i remember

Ruined Nap 04:28
then i decide that i wouldn't take any other shit from this guy that doesn't make anything right now that i'm crying now i start to hate my desire i've had it with mine i know it's possible they'll recover your mind be honest it belongs on the side that i'd rather leave with parts of me that i let die and evolve like strands of our evil habits are how i handle a thought and unlock his metallic heart involuntarily call you back invited back to the same disaster i harness that excited gasp i've got a map that leads to psychosomatic trauma and proves you care i ran my lens over the burning portion that's what it's there for

wish you knew how nothing's wrong this all has been going on long before you had a thought when no one forces us i could try setting up analog five mics over you don't just pretend to not hate when the chorus sucks this crop is spoiled it sounds just like attempts at them to get this right to give me force feed me on what you write that i borrow makes a thought you could change that's when i'm most excited to

Sick Planet 05:34
you recite "disorder" to seem treated like you need to to see awful lie can't you believe what if I tell you man please i'd offer my pulverized empathy how could i send through machines what you were like i attempt to repeat
9.
Year of Glad 03:34
when you've almost died to find you there uncoiling pride to descend like you called that i would meet you there and sighed to be in this too to break and then decide to fall while the desire raged inside of my heart the hate is already gone when the haze is wearing off i'm lazy protected in your arms call me baby and full of juvenile problems lately attacking for the wrong things creating less hope that we aren't going crazy i want you to rely when i mostly just can't control a thought when it's racing and already gone and leading us to
10.
it's all in the words "dad, don't throw me away" it's all better when you are gone forever i'm falling through sideways but should have never been by calling you back when of course i shouldn't i've got a new life to wake up and defend from things that you knew so much better than why didn't i side with the words i could've read we'd celebrate right through until we turn on you but i stayed and got lied to and i knew all summer that bad intentions can yield truth that you can measure had everyone gone through the sequence of events that cover and made you this broken person my heart is about to explode when i begin forgetting the whole truth is such a bummer and i stumble and try to be so subtle that you'd understand
