Toxic Rift [SLICE033]

by CAUSTIC GRIP

/
1.
Silence chokes you up at mid breath An entry level catastrophe Try to not show signs of upset Crippled by the weight of your misery Thrown. Thrown from a great height …Onto the rocks below Caught off guard by the early onset Feel the anxiety grow!! Early Onset 50 Lifeline untethered swiftly Lost So lost Can’t fix me Early Onset 50
2.
Got To Know 04:23
Take this light and burn me down To illuminate the ugly underside Of where we stand, we live and breathe We cut our throats so we can speak I got to know You got to go! I got to know I got to go!
3.
A life lost. No enjoyment An existence. An unmarked exit I take the time to destroy it Crawling way down into the cesspit Broken Empty Lost Betrayed Crawling on all fours through this flesh filled maze! I am the destroyer! I take my time as I pull it apart I am the destroyer! I feel the crumble of my sinking heart!
4.
Cold Hands 04:36
Mourning This morning Distorting The waves beyond the precipice Warning Ignoring Extinguish The flames behind the eyes! My own hands are cold They’re my hands to hold Running out of time Where did the time go?
5.
Toxic Rift 06:45
Say. What do you think? How do you deal? Cos nothing in this place feels like it’s real! Set adrift in a toxic rift I feel I feel the pain in a body, ceased to heal! Hey! What do you know? Please tell me so! A lifelessness in a place where nothing grows! I’m neck deep in a toxic rift I drown I feel the pain as it’s coming back around! It’s coming back around again. It’s coming back around! Set adrift in a toxic rift i’m down I’m neck deep in a toxic rift I drown!

about

Released by Slice Records 2020. Label release (with remixes) and cassette version available via slicerecords.bandcamp.com/album/toxic-rift

Naarm’s (Melbourne, Australia) Caustic Grip has been creating hard and dark rhythmically charged electro-industrial since early 2018 with a variety of releases produced since inception, showcasing the ever evolving sound of the project.

Caustic Grip's New EP TOXIC RIFT is a huge step in Caustic Grip’s aforementioned evolution!

A heady mixture of multiple Industrial genres, darkwave, electro pop, goth and electronic body music, the EP reaches dark new depths of sonic depravity, textural exploration and bleak lyrical imagery. A synth charged, boot stomping assault of harsh infectious rhythm, melodic hooks and baritone voice, TOXIC RIFT is here, drenched in sweat and wrapped in leather!
