lyrics
From a young age boys are instilled with a fear of talking about their problems,
Starts at home or in schools, as living room arguments with your father,
Stupid jokes, ancient tropes, family hopes rest upon your shoulders,
School yards skint knees, pretty please can i be like my father someday.
And you, i see right through, your bravado is fake and you don't know what to do,
And you, i see right through, masculinity is dying and you don't know what to do.
The older you get, the more its a threat to ignore your issues,
You drive a wedge between your heart and your head, ignorance is bliss and solitude is sexy,
Lad chats at the bar, forget who you are for male acceptance,
Abuse the women in your life, to deal with your own strife, your father figures have failed you.
And you, i see right through, your bravado is fake and you don't know what to do,
And you, i see right through, masculinity is dying and you don't know what to do.
I am my Fathers son, destined to do what he's done, my Father was my Grandfathers son, they're waiting to see what i become.

Why do I love this record? it has a haunting sound with a destination. The vocals are very sweet and the riffs hook you in . The songs have a great momentem they begin at once place then end some other place and don't go in a circle . if that makes sense? jimmyfuc
The Mary Wallopers are one of the finests bands from the actual Irish folk scene. Playing traditional tunes with great talent and a sophisticated sense of humor ;)
I hope to be able to see them live, on a stage or on a session as soon as possible ! mael_true_x
Terrific, marauding post-punk that will thrill fans of Idles with its pairing of cutting riffs and wry spoken/sung lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 26, 2022
The first new album in 30 years from these noise rock pioneers, featuring the iconic Thalia Zedek, positively rips. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 12, 2019
