you're lookin' like someone just told you that your dog just died but no-one on earth has even got this figured out and it's closing on in please can you try and understand? i'm calling your name a pound for the peacebringer i drove a long road to meet a bad guy last night i didn't wanna do it but i got this worry now and i'm finding it hard to even try to understand and i gave him his due a pound for the peacebringer and it's so alone when it comes to stay trying to atone make it through the day and it creeps into every little ray often when it's due wish I could get away if i ever had something i could taste oh lord i'm a slave to it and another thing i could only blame i'm yours what a shame about all the other days wasted and not claimed downpour i got rained away i'm above shaming i'm not saved i'm done with this labyrinth juxtapose hitting all the same i'll change like the butterfly broken wings powdered all the same no blame i'll elaborate fixin' to apply lessons i remain i'll die i won't be afraid if you ever hear voices in your head which one will you listen to do you ever hear voices in your head? i do i can hear one now it's saying if you ever hear voices in your head which one will you listen to?
2.	Safe To Drown 03:03	lyrics	buy track
with fresh insight the day can't seem as long you're always talking and i'll climb to save you now hope not dashed too quick a long and storied fight you've been found wanting and i'm trying to save you now so cruel to watch you fall no longer able to fly forever hoping and no one can save you now
3.	Bellwether 09:12	lyrics	buy track
wise is the man who can control the story hopeless and helpless and bleeding somewhat from the head rise up and cast out all who would oppose him sticking to reasons and prerehearsed notions of dread sounding like someone who spares time for kindness could be your path to the hearts of their murderous ways lies justified by their own interference raving and drooling we'll show them a new way to pray piercing the bubble of mindsets confucian eyes that still burn from the old revolution falling for overly simple illusions thoughtless and feeling like somebody took you away smash every single compliant idealist this violence is nothing compared to what stands in your way retching with scorn at your hopeless solution eyes that still burn from the old revolution

the druid is fluid he sinks not float on he'll pass by in blink of eye he sinks not float on pass over us stop breathing in delay decay

about

Recorded sporadically over the span of the past seven years, "A Pound For The Peacebringer" delves into a loose conceptual exploration of the elusive pursuit of peace, encompassing various themes such as therapy, drugs, altruism, political movements, religion, and ultimately, the controversial notion of achieving peace through death. True to their signature style, Spider Kitten delivers a thought-provoking and introspective experience that will resonate deeply with listeners.

Renowned for their ability to transcend genres, Spider Kitten's latest opus seamlessly blends elements of doom, stoner, sludge, country, southern rock, pastoral folk, blues, prog, and psych. The result is a mesmerizing sonic journey that defies categorization, showcasing the band's exceptional versatility and musical prowess.

"A Pound For The Peacebringer" showcases the undeniable talent of vocalist/guitarist Chi Lameo and drummer Chris West, who form the core of Spider Kitten's current lineup. Their performances on this album are some of their strongest to date, displaying an unrivaled synergy that brings the band's vision to life. Joining them are the incredibly talented bassist Steve Jones (formerly of Lacetillia, currently of Made Of Teeth) and guitarist Gareth Day (formerly of Hogslayer, currently of Obey Cobra), who contribute their exceptional skills to the album's sonic tapestry.

Spider Kitten's latest offering promises to captivate audiences worldwide with its uncompromising exploration of the human condition and its ability to transcend conventional musical boundaries. "A Pound For The Peacebringer" is set to become a landmark release in the band's storied career, solidifying their position as one of the UK underground’s most innovative and influential acts.
