Into Water 07:12
medicine into water cannot hold what it's given form dissolves into silence circling medicine into water buried in mid-air your smallest pleasures are the most that you can bear it's not for us to reach through memory decomposes carries backwards it knows an end horizon descends this breath is drawn for years you're left with sundials
3.
Black Shores 05:55
where will you and I dream at the starry drop of a riverbed you and I will sleep
4.
open a way to carry this through the sun stabs exhausted soil and wind flutters shadows a fairy call would flower here every peach, every apple a delicious carriage our mute web recedes but its ruins stand here insistently sundials left ticking on this despicable earth warm but for their untouchable core bitter summer whispers here lost on open dawns they must have used it too silent through some half sleep night will open a haunted gravity
5.
Carried 06:59
knowing the lifespan of silence a light that breaks unevenly the present empties slow into dusk an hourglass turned aside each one describes the other in reverse to make room for smaller things glowing with insect phosphorescence this absence can find itself it will not hold the thing you call out for the future was always screaming with desire for polishing symmetry depending on mountains to hear a cloud pass and wanting each grain retold it will not hold the thing you call out for
6.
open, fade out I see us coming closer open the latch, take out what's left I see our eyes drawn by embers we will find only the flames of survival it is stone and air now our misfortunes were singing a slow and dull rewilding of the soul a single line, ever outward green has found us in this place it is stone and air now I can see, she said look up there, as she points and tightens her eyes it is a smile from the landscape we were soaked through with this place it won't last, it won't last, it won't last
7.
Half Sun 04:29
I can see from a distance light without rays a dissolving of boundaries waiting for self caught in ascending silence it's simple to know I will toss it to the stream cut into you each point will agree to give way in silent unison the exhausted floorboards of winter will open to us a thousand suns haven't grown these leaves dissolving outward stillness gorges itself here becomes a threshold an oceanic concession dizzy with light under something inside us dissolving this dream each point will agree to give way in silent unison the exhausted floorboards of winter will open to us

about

Receive's (FKA Anura, Hey Exit) 'New Abrasions' is a project born from the early days of the 2020 quarantine, ripped up and started again twice before arriving at last in its final form. The result is a rich and expansive album of art rock and heavy music that draws from a whole slew of other subgenres, inspiration coming from everything from trip-hop to harsh noise. 'New Abrasions' is a dynamic album that never pulls the same punch twice, and warrants close and repeated listening.
