Anberlin - High Stakes (Official Music Video)

Equal Vision Records 2024-10-18 | “High Stakes” is the latest single from Anberlin. Stream/download here: anberlin.lnk.to/highstakes

Directed & Edited by Jacob Moniz & Nate Young

Lyrics:
Never been the one to fold
And give up a game
But what’s the point in playing
When it all ends the same
Cause King plays for Queen
Queen plays for Keeps
Like the secrets up your sleeve
That you’re hiding
Shoulda cashed out
When I heard you were lying
I went all in but now the
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player
Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak
Banked on beauty
But I shoulda bet on myself
I wish that I could
Put the blame on somebody else
But I showed my hand
You showed your plan to get away
Just like a thief in the night
And all you left me with was

Doubt and wondering why I was
Blind from the start
When you played our
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player
Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak

You went and walked away
You had your reasons why
Still there we stood with you
We stood by your side

Just know you’ll be ok

Always here- BY YOUR SIDE

If you ever walk away don’t ever turn around

When we’re still standing
Thankful for the ones who stood by our side with you we carry this pride
We'll be by your side!

Never Fear - BY YOUR SIDE
Always here- BY YOUR SIDE

Armor For Sleep - What A Beautiful World

Equal Vision Records 2024-10-11 | "What A Beautiful World" is the latest single from Armor For Sleep. Stream/download here: afs.lnk.to/beautiful

Lyrics:
Time loops of our past lives
Play inside my head
Over again they repeat themselves in the dark Till I'm dead
Staring at the shadows
Of our life left behind
Dreaming of the day they come untied from my mind
(What a beautiful world we made)
What a beautiful world we made
Too bad we made it go away
Dreaming of the day that my memories start to fade
You and I were drowning
On the day we met
Holding hands we swam deep down as far as we could get
Strange how castles we build
Piercing through the sky
Turn into the tombs that cradle us when we die
(What a beautiful world we made)
What a beautiful world we made
Too bad we made it go away
Dreaming of the day that my memories start to fade
How much pain Can you take Before you turn And walk away?
A lucid dream we couldn't save Such a shame, such a shame

just give it time

take my hand, i hear you calling

“this world is coming to its end”
there’s no time
this moments everything i hoped that it would always be for me

this won’t work out in the end
this won’t work out for me

take my hand, i hear you calling
i know you’re scared
this little lie has caught on fire
you better hope that you’re dead

can’t see your face, it’s been so long
god damn i have been so ugly

take my hand, i hear you calling
i know you’re scared
this little lie has caught on fire
you better hope that you’re dead

LYRICS
My spirit and soul are made out of glass
You only live once
Well, depends who you ask
Very few things are matters of fact
My life’s not worth much but I’d bet it on that

In my bones, in my bones
There’s a lot we don’t know
Can a man torn in half ever find his way home?
Searching for the answers
The trails keep getting cold
In my bones, in my bones, in my bones

Is everyone’s heart inherently bad?
Or is it the weight that makes us collapse?

How many licks will it take me to get
To the center of the icicle plunged in my chest

Filmed, directed and edited by: Jaakko Manninen / wordup.video
Produced by Jeremy Comitas
Audio Production by Mikhail Marianas

Lyrics:
Do you see what’s free
Even if you don’t agree
Go on, gotta place your bets
while we hide from the gun threats
I bet you feel brave from behind the internet
It can’t be taught to last
If we settle our differences fast
Now our kids learn to write and read
and everything between
and get down, cover and freeze
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won’t matter who is right
Do you see what’s free
A holiday facade of freedom
Give away human rights to feed them
Headline news, we bleed on
Give up paychecks to seed them
Teens get killed, an audience fulfilled
You gotta keep the people engaged
Even if it keeps them enraged
Profits and numbers got something to say
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won’t matter who is right
Headline news
“An unarmed man murdered!”
Wait, adjust for views
“Man not following orders!”
Headline news
“The world is overheating”
Just hit snooze
“It’s starting to feel like spring!”
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won’t matter who is right

Nova Charisma - Pain Giver

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "Pain Giver" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
Pain giver you were such a challenge. Paint thinner drink it by the gallon. Dark side of the princess Heathenistic ways.
You say you want to be distant. Then why you on my waist? Why you at my place?
I see with a distant eye.
Confusion in where it lies.
I’m starting to believe when I want it I will get it. Feel it.
You’re it.
Soothsayer learning how to balance. Go figure - wanting me to want it. Dark side of the princess Heathenistic core.
Every time that I move in it’s like going into war. You’re the Berlin Wall
I see with a distant eye.
Confusion in where it lies.
I’m starting to believe when I want it I will get it. Feel it.
You’re it.
Father I could not find the half life for every lesson that you taught. My emotions just forgot.
It’s like a war when getting close.
I’m moving mountains just to try to close the distance. It’s like a war when getting close.
I’m moving mountains just to try.
I see with a distant eye.
Confusion in where it lies.
I’m starting to believe when I want it I will get it. Feel it.
You’re it.
Want it. Get it. Feel it. You’re it.

Nova Charisma - Prophet

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "Prophet" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
It’s so hard just to listen when you, you’re trying to be discreet. You talk about your ethos and you, you’re lying through your teeth.
In my solar vision I see flares above.
Talk about inclusion as you bite your tongue.
Careful when you make demands. Therefore just write it off.
Like a tick on me hidden you’ll stick to where I’ll be. Let you let me lead you wherever I say.
But I’ll pick you off when I please.
Caution pretty baby -
You could hurt your charm.
Look around and realize you bend backwards
Careful when you make demands.
Therefore just write it off.
And for the way I am, I’m careful to vibe at all.
Carry on.
Never changing.
Once forgiven always looking around the floor. Never changing only waiting until it forms. Listen, all around me I was aching sore. Attention to the leeches, always wanting more.
I understand you think you’re breaking out but your breaking off from the profit
I understand you think you’re breaking out but you’re breaking off.
I’m the prophet.
Careful when you make demands.
Therefore just write it off.
And for the way I am, I’m careful to vibe at all.
Carry on.

Lyrics:
F E A R of big disaster.
A E I Owe You my attention. Honey you make me smile faster. Little turtle we love to float.
I’m on call how about you? Are we cool? Love ensues. Caught your kiss Texas gift. If it lasts we do too.
Savor. I will savor
Every walk to your apartment. I’m so there.
F E A R of big dilemmas.
I owe you nothing but the truth. Feature flick in the lust cinema Statue torture. I want to move.
I’m a god and so are you. Five feet tall attitude.
Secret kiss - catch my drift? If it lasts we do too.
Savor. I will savor
Every walk to your apartment.
I’m so there.
Savor - never sever.
I could stay in the compartment that you wear.
Ran in circles. Changed my virtues. Ran in circles. Changed my virtues. Just because.
Savor. I will savor
Every walk to your apartment.
I’m so there.
Savor - never sever.
I could stay in the compartment that you wear.

Nova Charisma - Two Eighty

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "Two Eighty" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
Call to arms!
All my soldiers line up quick.
This is who we are, it’s a metaphor.
Big shot acting like your skin’s so thick.
But your voice is not and the way you cower says anonymous.
(Anonymous)
Spout your shit into the void - nobody cares.
(Nobody cares)
It’s the same as being annoyed when every activist acts callously confident. My God, we live so divided.
We live so divided.
Pacifist, can’t we all just find resolve. No, we’re militant and so vigilante. Play by all the rules you preach to live. Take and never give.
We all think we’re right.
(Anonymous)
Spout your shit into the void - nobody cares.
(Nobody cares)
It’s the same as being annoyed when every activist acts callously confident. My God, we live so divided.
We live so divided.
We live so divided.
Are we really free or are we judgingly degraded. While we instantly, instantly berate for any reason. Are we really free or are we judgingly degraded. While we instantly, instantly berate.
(Anonymous)
Spout your shit into the void - nobody cares.
(Nobody cares)
It’s the same as being annoyed when every activist acts callously confident. My God, we live so divided.
We live so divided.
We live so divided.

Nova Charisma - All My Thoughts Into Hooks

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "All My Thoughts Into Hooks" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
Stall.
It’s so peaceful.
Us sleeping around the floor. Reaching, just out of touch.
I’m so sure yea
Yea caught in the rhapsody war. Breathing so I can howl. Careening ourselves to bed.
They know I’m a type A.
You though: you’re the type for me.
Once a day I replay all the ways that you’d feel. Soon one day I’ll awake to have made it to you.
I pre-form
All my thoughts into hooks.
I’m reaching around, afar...
Still, you remain out of touch.
It’s okay.
Do your thing, yea, do what you want. It all leads you back to here.
And I feel you getting near.
I know I’m a type A
You though: you’re the type for me.
Once a day I replay all the ways that you’d feel. Soon one day I’ll awake to have made it to you.
Turn up, turn out.
I’m running in place.
For now no doubt you’re running my way.
Turn up, you’ll turn out then be coming my way.
Yea.
Soon one day I’ll awake to the state that I dreamt.

Nova Charisma - The Better It Gets

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "The Better It Gets" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
I see the way that were taught to dwell on the things we don’t want. And that idle hands do the devils work.
If we could all just commit to nothing And let our vision play out.
Would it alternate how we all create?
I could feel what you’re saying if you just spoke up. You could seal off your fate if you trust it.
I hear about all the bombs in Dresden and how half of us starve. And it marinates in a way I hate.
When I focus on the dark I can’t get away from it.
I think I just want to feel good.
I feel bad to look away, I feel bad to look at all. I swear I just want to feel good.
I could feel what you’re saying if you just spoke up.
You could seal off your fate if you trust it.
There’s a phrase you should know. That it’s just ebb and flow. It’s just ebb and flow.
And a place you should go where there’s ease to your flow. Ease to your flow.
Found the truth in everything.
Inner waves - they never end.
You see how this goes? You see what you’re told!
I could feel what you’re saying if you just spoke up.
You could seal off your fate if you trust it.
There’s a phrase you should know. That it’s just ebb and flow. We just ebb and flow.
And a place you should go where there’s ease to your flow. Ease to your flow.

Nova Charisma - Where Do You Come From

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "Where Do You Come From" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
Wait, can I set me free?
But will I be the same when I feel the need to breathe?
Dance around the fire with a grin.
Get behind the fake withdrawal.
Like a round of tears mixed in with gin. We all bathe our wounds with salt
Stop standing on the bridge. (Setting on the fringe)
I could be irrational.
Stop standing on the bridge. (Setting on the fringe)
We all take it personal.
Start running away from the “Where did you come from” question -
Get in front again.
Fought running away from the visceral outcome just to feel myself again. Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Should we love one another? Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Would you kill just to live?
Can’t believe the things I dabbled in. Took a lot to be enthralled.
Like a round of tears mixed in with gin. We all bathe our wounds in salt.
Stop standing on the bridge. (Setting on the fringe)
Hurry up be rational.
Stop standing on the bridge. (Setting on the fringe)
We all take it personal.
Start running away from the “Where did you come from” question -
Get in front again.
Fought running away from the visceral outcome just to feel myself again. Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Should we love one another? Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Would you kill just to live?
Live in another place on another day. Never go to waste.
I cannot be rational.
Stop standing on the bridge. (Setting on the fringe)
We all take it personal.
Start running away from the “Where did you come from” question -
Get in front again.
Fought running away from the visceral outcome just to feel myself again. Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Should we love one another? Ce la vie
What’s for me?
Would you kill just to live?
What’s for me? What’s for me?

Nova Charisma - Irresistible Frame

Equal Vision Records 2024-08-09 | "Irresistible Frame" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
All it took was a bullet to go public. Please don’t look.
Beg for the person, not the lesson. Won’t it work?
My heart is in your hands. Your heart has other plans.
Fine! You say I don’t have second thoughts. I only care to not get caught.
Too much at stake.
Yea, this I know.
Harmony in the armory that you built to stop the hook. Ominous and synonymous with the way I’m sure this looks.
Irresistible frame says what is says.
Does what it does.
You’re caution-operating at the brink of letting go. You’re caution-operating everything
Fine! You say I don’t have second thoughts. I only care to not get caught.
Too much at stake.
Yea, this I know.
Too late, mental estate is eroded and now out of play. Couture - memory’s floor in a building where I can’t behave.
Irresistible frame says what is says.
Does what it does.
You’re caution-operating at the brink of letting go. You’re caution-operating everything
Fine! You say I don’t give a second thoughts. I only care to not get caught.
Too much at stake.
Yea, this I know.

say goodbye to love my dear
you were all we had
those days are gone, start giving up
on what defines a man

you never asked, i never told
thats how this game is played
a moment held in every home
youll never hear me crying, baby

i cant stop all that i started and
i cant let it out
regrets flower into spaces decayed yet still abound

i want to be whole again
cant seem to shake this idea
unburdened and innocent
with so much left to choose

Chase it
Feel it start to shake
Too much but not enough
Tonight we take it all
Now drown

Kaonashi - Exit Pt. VI (The Guilt In The Rearview)

Lyrics:
The bitter taste of swallowed pride.
Feelings of fear that I would hide.
The truth is orange and red tonight.
I wish I was the one who died.

I’m scared of tomorrow.
So I’ll portray all of our yesterdays.
I’ll paint the picture my way.
Impressionism of what you say.
Once power, now guilt.
This trip isn’t fun.
And I’m truly ashamed to be their son.

The bitter taste of swallowed pride.
Feelings of fear that I would hide.
It isn’t yours but isn’t mine…
I wish I was the one who died.

Cold calls come from in the house.
I want to answer, but there's no plea deal to be found.
Banging on the gavel for attention.
Begging to unravel all the tension.
Breaking on the gravel for a second.
And I cannot drive with these tears in my eyes.
You proved me wrong for being on your side.

I know you killed Ja

Lyrics:
I walk past your class at noon everyday.
I’m the one with the curly hair and 4XL sweater that’s gray.
I think our sisters were in the same grade.
Bittersweet, breaking the ice, I’m trying to make lemonade.

Overthinking and undertalking over sound of traffic and people walking.
Next time I'll pick you up.
Under the moonlight and you reach over to grab a brownie and half-flat soda.
I laugh cause it’s awkward as fuck.

Waiting for the day that your love will come my way and the sun will glow and yellow out the grey.

The apple of my irony.
The reason for my agony.
You and me sitting in a tree.
C A R V I N G.

Cause something is better than nothing.
I don’t wanna be alone in my loneliness.
Even if it doesn’t make sense.
I need someone to be at the bottom with.

Armor For Sleep - In Another Dream

Equal Vision Records 2024-07-18 | "In Another Dream" is the latest single from Armor For Sleep. Stream/download here:

Lyrics:
You know its my worst fear
Thinking I'll never
Get to see your eyes again with mine
Cause I know the years turn
As long as the sun burns
And it hurts to know that we're losing time
Endlessly losing the daylight
Hold on
I never got to say goodbye maybe in another life
We can share air from our lungs but never again in this one
Hold on
I never got to say goodbye
Maybe in another dream
There can be a place where we meet But you’re on your own without me
I'm still so afraid
But I know there's no way Getting back what we left behind
And I know the years turn
As long as the sun burns
And it hurts to know that we're losing time
Endlessly losing the daylight
Hold on
I never got to say goodbye maybe in another life
We can share air from our lungs but never again in this one
Hold on
I never got to say goodbye
Maybe in another dream
There can be a place where we meet But you're on your own without me
I know there is a place for us inside of my mind
It hurts just to open up that door but it's the only place for us I can find
Hold on
I can’t hold on anymore

Nova Charisma - Stolen From Each Other

Equal Vision Records 2024-07-12 | "Stolen From Each Other" is from Nova Charisma's 'Metropolitan' album, available now. Get the album here: novacharisma.lnk.to/metropolitan

Lyrics:
Whenever I drive through your hometown.
I close my eyes and hope to crash.
But it’s in vain: my mind knows these roads. So I’ll commit to loneliness.
Sitting in the green room. This time though you’re gone. Taunted by the brick that we carved our initials on.
How can these surroundings still contain your scent? Every corner of this state brings it all back again.
I have lost you.
But you’re still a part of me. You’re still a part of me.
Can’t confront you.
Because you stole a part of me. We’ve stolen from each other.
Old friend.
Later that night you entered my dream. Eyes swollen shut.
I can’t hear what your saying.
I try to embrace but you fade away.
So I commit to loneliness.
How can these surroundings still contain your scent? Every corner of this state brings it all back again.
I have lost you.
But you’re still a part of me. You’re still a part of me.
Can’t confront you.
Because you stole a part of me. We’ve stolen from each other.
Old friend.
Every time that I visited here.
Wish those moments would soon disappear.
For every place where we left part of us - leave it there. Leave it there!
I have lost you.
But you’re still a part of me. You’re still a part of me.
Can’t confront you.
Because you stole a part of me. We’ve stolen from each other.
Old friend.

Common Sage - Hiraeth (featuring Jason Gleason of Further Seems Forever)

Equal Vision Records 2024-06-28 | Produced/Mixed/Engineered by Brett Romnes
Mastered by Mike Kalajian
Video by Adam Scrio
Edited by John McColgan

Lyrics:
come
sit by the fire,
stand by the mess you made then vanished like a
dove
captured unbound, crushed till the bones collapsed and punctured through your lungs

this all seems so
wrong
no need to speak, no need listen out for whispers while you
haunt
felt all around, touched every blistering face disfigured by your
touch

so foreign
so far away
this is what you get when you replace the memories
say their names out loud

leave
lost in the wake, left in a fabrication, something like a
dream
cold like the sea,
cold like the hands that stole and dragged you underneath

so foreign
so far away
this is what you get when you replace the memories
say their names out loud

these are the words that you've spent your life waiting for
and these are the hands that will end all your suffering
now that you’re here, spill your guts, we’re not asking again
leave those regrets with the body you left by the door

show us that face, make it shine, you're a miracle, darling
(you've been so forgiving, nothing like before)
hide all your loss, hold it tight, lest it fade away too
(i can feel it slipping, all these changes)

Kaonashi - Straycations (Official Music Video)

Equal Vision Records 2024-06-27 | “Straycations” is from Kaonashi's upcoming EP, 'A Second Chance At Forever: The Brilliant Lies From Casey Diamond,' available July 26th. Pre-order the album here: kaonashi.lnk.to/casey

Lyrics:
I hate this part. Can we skip this?
A sob-story script and a stage kiss.
A gun in the first act aimless.
Paragraph, screenshot and a call missed.
A long ride home after 2nd shift.
Have we covered all of the basics?

And I’d kill to be…
And I’d kill to be…

It’s always the same game, the cheating makes it fun.
The always the same shame, it’s on the tip of your tongue.
Just say it, you’re done
Just say it, you hate me, Jamie.
Just spit it out.

We’re perfect together
I know your actions exactly.
You’re way too sensitive.
You’re acting so fucking stupid.

And I’d kill to be what you are to me…

It’s always the same game, the cheating makes it fun.
The always the same shame, it’s on the tip of your tongue.
Just say it, you’re done
Just say it, you hate me, baby.
Just spit it out.

So why won’t you just tell me what’s wrong?
I wanna know what’s wrong with you.
Broken promises kept in your palm.
Why you stay and pray for an end to abuse.
You’re housebroken like an underdog.
Just waiting and hating but not learning from clues.
Morgan wagging your tail all along.
I wish you’d just stop aiming and shoot at the target you’re guarding.
So hard to forget how an underdog sits so loyal like a pet.

Ready, aim, fire.

I wish you’d just stop aiming and shoot.

Directed by Jesse Korman
Written by Julian Rosen
Edited by Jaakko Manninen
Filmed at Napalm Rainbow

Lyrics:
salt on your tongue
bleed this one out
savor the fabrication
your lungs are weak
taste just like glass
i should've seen this coming

write me a list, write me a list, black out the revelation
write me a list, write me a list, edit the script until its worn

please don't beg
never spoken, always ringing out
in my head
i always seem to lose
relive every moment til’ it's spent
recite lines until they stop making sense
start again

call off the search
caught red in hand
i stole what i was given
paint me deceit
thoughts left a wreck
it never ends, it never ends

write me a list, write me a list, black out the revelation, please
write me a list, write me a list, replace my name with others lost
and so it goes

please don't beg
never spoken, always ringing out
in my head
i always seem to lose
just follow every word until they all stop making sense
start again

I've seen forever and it's dressed in white

So don't you walk alone tonight,
It'll get better
Let these words always be your light
I promised that I would
Cry with you, hurt with you, bleed for you
So don't you walk alone tonight

If you ever feel you've gone too far
Look back and you'll see me running for you
I'm for you
With eyes deeper than my heart could know
Remember what I said when we danced slow
I'm for you

Coming soon.

Bane - (Its The) Truth Inside

Equal Vision Records 2024-06-14 | "(It's The) Truth Inside" is the latest single from Bane. Stream/download here: bane.lnk.to/truth

Lyrics:
The mirror is the hardest part
It sees through what you have become
Muscles flexed
Slogans empty
Thoughts picked and sculpted for you

Beneath your clothes, you see it
The truth inside won't go away
It’s in your eyes, you see it
The truth inside why won’t it go away?

It’s in the eyes of the kids you picked on
Things you’ve done but can’t erase
Schoolyard bully you’re a TV ad
It’s all right there staring at your face

I’d like to take you to that place
Your every action imitates
Far from inside daddy’s safe, suburban home
Where hard is hard and the real killers roam
Do you think you’d last ten minutes
Where the real killers roam?

Set Design by: Adam Lerner

Lyrics:
Just sit back.

Hey there, see my gaze?
All the while you just look away
I want you when I can’t get you when I want.

Cigarette in my hand.
Pretty girl. Smoking gun.
Now alone. One-night stand is standing up the phone.
Busy line.

In a way you took my move.
I don’t believe you for a second
Just get back
Just get back
Just smile.

To all the people who precede or follow me - stop!
I’m here simply to want you when I can’t get you when I want.

Cigarette in my hand
Pretty girl let’s be friends.
You say “Bye”, roll your eyes, and then hang up the phone.

If you want me to be gone just reciprocate it.
What a healthy pattern.
Keep it incubated.

I promised myself not to get here
But entertainment won’t create itself.

Cigarette in your hand.
Pretty girl. Smoking gun.
Now alone. One-night stand is standing up the phone.
Busy line.
Say “Goodbye.”

In a way you took my move.
I don’t believe you for a second
Write me off.
Write me off and smile.
