Give Me More 03:30
As I sit in this pit of vomit and spit I dream and I think of that sexual stink …I'll never sink until I've had more until I've hit the floor Give me more Give me more I wanted more Give me more OH Feed me more Feed me more I needed more Feed me more OH HA I want more drugs they make me give good hugs fill my skin with bugs sink into the rug My mind and its craving MY body and its raging easier said than done until you've got the gun …I'll never love someone Give me more Give me more I wanted more Give me more OH Feed me more Feed me more I needed more Feed me more OH HA

In the setting sun the end is creeping on I can feel the day Drifting farther away But in the demise we rise This time has passed and died Now we grow to mold the pieces of this story untold Climbing every day up from the plastic haze Running and raging wild I'm God's dumb helpless child Let me live this way Forget what you were going to say But nudge me and guide my soul with your dynamic casserole ----- I don't wanna know What you've got in store But I'll take all the passes you throw I'll never ever go down any road you know But I'll bend over backwards to grow

Born in a family that other families do defeat. Support and love all around but it varies every day, you see? I'll always remember Split in half by the laugh that two people can forever meet. Starting at the young age of seventeen. I'll thank you forever They gave me everything, Filling my body with life I'll always remember They'd find my everything, Filling my mind with light I'll thank you forever (I'll owe you forever) I only know you cause you'll only ever know me. I'm identical to your half of the language that created me. I'll always remember Look me in the eye and teach me how to see. You are a piece of me that no one could ever be. I'll thank you forever They gave me everything, Filling my body with life I'll always remember They'd find my everything, Filling my mind with light I'll thank you forever (I'll owe you forever) Thank you for the life in me. You are my energy.

A hundred miles away I will see That every single day I'm never me and every word I say is a reflection of my shell In this little place I believe I'm living a disgrace This self I deceive and looking at the face of the man who gave me this curse My blade is drawn the cascade of my own problem My mind is floating, in the sea of manic emotion Now I know What's inside of me This pit that I am in is an open door to embrace what is within my mental war I know I'll never win but the time has come to begin I'm spinning down the hole of my own mind to understand my role I grind to find the darkness takes a toll when my weary head is full My blade is drawn the cascade of my own problem My mind is broken My father's illness is awoken Now I know What's inside of me

On Down to Heaven On Down to Heaven Down we go You will never know me enough to guide me through my mess. The walls you've built between us are the crux of my honesty. Father Father Father Far You'll never know You'll never know Hurting your mother with an evil fist, confusion clouds your soul. Everything you've done was just for fun in the eyes of you my son. Charlie Charlie Cousin and Friend You'll never know You'll never know On Down to Heaven On Down to Heaven Down we go Roaming round town in your worry boat, you'll always see yourself in the shade. Conditioning you with hate and abuse, only blinded by the game you've played. Sydney Sydney Sister Syd You'll always know You'll always know Inside my maniacal brain I'm toying with the world we know. Manipulating more victims with the care and love I show. I'm no better than the rest. I'll never know I'll never know On Down to Heaven On Down to Heaven Down we go

And you were crying But I was sleeping around And you were cold But I was dreaming about And I was poor Look at all that money you found But not no more The distance traveled by an audible sound And you were working But I was playing around Your worries don't matter We're all gonna rot into the ground And you were full But I was needing some more You'll never know The PLEASURE PAINS that tickle my soul

about

This album was painfully molded and filtered by self-inflicted limitations in the studio and on the streets over the course of 9 months. My hearing is damaged, posture unpredictable, butt cheeks scarred, lungs blackened and knowledge of dirty dumps increased. Getting to know the maniacal and addictive routines our brains can find, sucking them dry and scurrying seemingly fast to the next spark of new experience. Getting into pickles, LOVING these pickles and finding more. Emerging from these delicious jolts with a bucket of stories.

This is a collection of songs written originally on guitar and vocals and were later recorded with all the other layers. Each song was recorded, produced and layered within one night of awkward and "hard" work. Awkward work because Sloven is an experiment with new limitations. Recording without metronomes, mixing with foreign tools and programs, recording with horrible microphones, getting excited about the over distortion of songs, accepting and loving first takes and instincts, creating and recording on low amounts of sleep and basically making the whole process as difficult as possible. Comfort sacrificed in an effort to hopefully grab from these awkward, drained and manic places and bring an element of them to the surface.

It all sounds so negative, but to be honest......it was quite fun. Sloven was an interesting experience to say the least. Who knows if any of it is a success or not. It could have all been a waste of time and all those struggles were just for the sake of struggling. Just try to listen a little bit and it will hopefully be more clear. Slapping instinct to stubbornness, pushing skyways to trenches. This album is a pile of surprises. Quite the change to feel the bounds of this one go.



Thanks to my family.

You know who you are.
