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.

lyrics

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
