  • Cassette + Digital Album

    Limited edition of 50.

    These 4 tracks will only be available physically in two choices of beautiful colours of cassette.

    Each side opens with an official Single followed by a previously unreleased song.

    So, the only decision is which colour tape to go for either 'Faded Orange' or 'Dollar Bill Green' (yes, those are the official names!).

    Or how about both?

    ...Now there's an idea ;-)

    Includes unlimited streaming of 72 Hours (EP) - Limited Edition via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
    ships out within 3 days

lyrics

Another dragged on through insipid years
You prophesize and drown in all your tears
Hung & cold beyond embrace
The mornin’ sun leaves a bitter taste again
So… question everything boys I should know
But I wake to sleep and take my waking slow
Climbing up a winding stair to where you think it lies
There’s nothing there

Now the sun has cast a shadow over me
Do you have the right to be free?

A mother’s ruin will always take its toll
And all the lies that’s cast won’t save your soul
In the end a test of time
That sits right up and offers no disguise
I remember looking out to sea
I remember wishing it was me
Waves crash 6 foot 2 & 3
I wish that they would wash right over me
Now the sun has cast a shadow over me
Do you have the right to be free?

Now the sun has cast a shadow over me
Do you have the right to be free?
Overboard’s an ocean so make your wish
And I’m telling you this… It’s stick or twist
