Iceage: The Holding Hand +FRISSÍTÉS: Vendetta – újabb klipdal a Seek Shelter album bejelentéséhez

Az idén 2011-es New Brigade tinédzserpunk-debütalbumuk 10 éves jubileumát ünneplő fiúk a másodgitáros Casper Morilla csatlakozásával kvintettre bővülve és a Mexican Summer amerikai független kiadóhoz leszerződve jelentették meg The Holding Hand című új kislemezüket, melynek videója a korábban MØ-, Trixie Whitley- és Savages-klipeket is jegyző koppenhágai vizuálművész Anders Malmberg rendezésében készült.

There is no shape, there is no form
But a smoky rolling mass
So it billows like the sea
Surges overcome to pass

Some power exceeds muscle
Even the weightless can outweigh
Put one over in the hustle
Teacher becomes protege

And we row, on we go, through these murky water bodies
Little known, little shown, just a distant call of sound

See the couplets in the sun
In an alabaster hue
Slouched across these spangled acres
Rich outlandish revenue

See it come and see it go
As you find it then it’s lost
Far beyond the holding hand
In a pipe dream double-crossed

And we row, on we go, through these murky water bodies
Little known, little shown, just a distant call of sound

‘O limp wristed god, limp wristed god
Don’t you know I’m not at a fault in your weakened arms
Sent off at a breathless pace
Softened come the fall from grace
‘O limp wristed god, limp wristed god
Don’t you know I’m not at a fault in your weakened arms
Knocking on your window is a cavalcade
Pleading for relief, a call to aid

.

FRISSÍTÉS: két héttel később a Vendetta című groove-os új dal Jonas Bang-klipjével együtt megérkezett az albumbejelentés is. . .

Tired of misbehaving
Call those shots upon those pricks
We’re fixing to skin ’em
Every trickster knows there’s an onslaught
And every city’s flooded with cocaine
Fuck a broken backbone, You’re wasted on this site
Did you earn to belong here
This ain’t no place for a sightseer

Looking for promotion
Mitigate a problem then dump it in the ocean
Nurse onto these grudges for my sake
Here grievances run within the family
Meddle into interest where business you got none
See yourself deemed a stressor
Every man is someone’s successor

Beating on an iron door
You’re looking like an animal
Cock the hammer, tuck it in
We keep it close, we keep with kin
Vendetta
Vendetta
Imma gonna getcha

The plates from which we eat from
Life in the trenches of a Ponzi scheme to come
Cutthroat contract jackleg wildflower
A nettle in the nursery humdrum
Hellbent chasing paper upon a mile of road
Buyer, seller, seller, and buyer
How much are you taking for hire?

Beating on an iron door
You’re looking like an animal
Cock the hammer, tuck it in
We keep it close, we keep with kin
Vendetta
Vendetta
Imma gonna getcha

Vendetta
Vendetta
Vendetta
Imma gonna getcha
Vendetta

a Lockdown Blues szöveges videója tavaly áprilisból:

Your river flows again my love (again my love)
I know you’ve been choked
A loosened clamp around your beak
While crowds and parties mock the weak

A sudden fatal tenant seizes room
Didn’t grasp what I had until
It was robbed absent too soon

COVID-19 lockdown blues
The only way out is through
A wraithlike peril spread across our seven seas
Empty shelves, barren streets
Confined domestic quarantine
How the itching for lost touch is deafening
COVID-19 lockdown blues
COVID-19 lockdown blues

The lid’s on the kettle
Measured to subdue
Steamed figures rising
In a sulk warped for its roof

Like rings propagate in water
Motion’s no vaccine
Those cut-off wages, darling
Don’t rinse down with Listerine

I got the COVID-19 lockdown blues
The only way out is through
A wraithlike peril spread across our seven seas
Empty shelves, barren streets
Confined domestic quarantine
How the itching for lost touch is deafening
COVID-19 lockdown blues
COVID-19 lockdown blues

COVID-19 lockdown blues
COVID-19 lockdown blues
COVID-19 lockdown blues
Among us in the glaring daylight
