Mothermeat 03:08
these hues grow life I think red suits you when time feels just like swallowing sand I'll know my primes have I been away for too long, nursing my rhyme? I know I rarely move a limb engaged in solve, revolve, and vote I hope I will never couple with what you have guided me to know Violette, I feel like scrubbing the sidewalks again rake, I'll take my time to develop myself or you blueprint me fine mud bitch quicksilver quick the licking of venomous dick waiting for life, sitting aside under grease, caked - pale skeptic chewing new meat, digesting rainbows puking vomit of gray synthetic so old cannot help going and trying to clear the mould it decided what I need and you don't need to go I can't help it, I break in two E-F-F-O-R-T I O U waiting for life, sitting aside

Camwhore 07:20
distant business ties me down again, day-bound instant vibrations lay waste to the boy once Amanda breathes in lesson is learned hard sum of all answers, freeze frame I am home now, marvelling the partings never went so well breathe in missing has turned hard beyond the dusty high - hell to light the wake in this body I found my exit into a voyeurist cull start over by tomorrow the one is actually three and smiling the killer must've been me I'm alone now, facing the pulsing need I'm gone for good as I recline oh but I can dream I pray that you've got what it takes to be my wife lesson is learned hard sleeping dogs will lie with strained eyes while my fever's dying five thousand angels burn into minds of our hosts “you and I are finite flavours, keys, and cues; no time to waste, make our body move” know your size on this night all your sin spreads you thin noise and bone, bread and home voice and vein disobey coin your lies on this night know your sin, heads - you win draw the line that makes you mine I cut through (like the moon) stable through inertia, if I stop I fray to single strands I've made my peace, I've drawn the line I cross my heart and hope to try friction to light to strengthen the system reducing the devil back down to a stain on my jeans I feel ready for summer I can't help but hang my halo too high no shame, no guilt, I just breathe and I keep pushing through splinters

Bear in Mind 06:20
another cow inside the meatkeep where fleeced sheep and ram collide I shove my horns into your heartbeat you plant a seed inside my mind think back look back keep track is it safe? your tree gave up all its fruit to trade for stronger roots I burned the entire woods to make it to you I wasn't all that inclined to check its wrongs or rights now she's as vicious as you bear in mind design bear in mind break and gag her in the smoke faking, tardy, out of hope keeping heartbeats in the line (getting closer to things we shouldn't know) take this body and this oak “take this body” Alice cried reading minds makes for dead wives you carry back your broken neck dead birds and broken leaves all the signs have failed me some advice from the free: plead insanity held in tightly in the grey raped and hungry, led astray feed the heartache, cancer grows (walked on water once, now pulled in low) take this body and this oak “take this body” Alice choked reach inside me, tear it all run, scout till you black out she will kill you digging to the bone for the fruit way in me convenient for concealing truth afraid to let go of the tame pondering savage harvesting beg full release, come back to me centrefold queen of cancerous dreams saturated with gold

days won't contain me when I'm inside the months cover eyes those who trace the lines between the floorboards, their welcome's outstayed a weakness that you keep letting win will soon become unique (it all belongs to him) I count the truths we've lost to the thickness of the walls I divide wisely silence amid my friends - they know commitment I forget I regret burning through the threshold you share with me for re-alignment stains my feet I bring hospitality this could work make these hands seemingly idle how? I know now all she needs is traces of dignity of a choice all she needs is trophies invest in second-best - mend to break, of course I realise the phrase: “my home is yours” they don't need your penitence, they only want you to... kill your friends for me let it end let it in scissors on your wedding day rosy shredded grin coward, coward sever dirty skin learning the tropes, breaking off more we are broke and bare, we'll never make amends my home is yours

he wants in choices wear him thin sand may find a way to turn to glass experts only ever see black (you best keep your secrets from me, who am I to say?) you peek inside and bite the fruit, now half that world - it is gone it's no longer what you dream – it's what have you done? I never want to be caught dead specificity will Midas life to let-downs through power-drunken cold illuminators watch your back, it's changing hard put your dream inside a morgue more is key and less is more is more sweep the stakes of come and see make it A/B, unmake believe glad you would, now get up glad you would, it's not enough and we will materialise to shreds experts always play pretend (I want it all to seem like more; I keep all my eyes closed) this was nothing, baby just wait the potential's coming back to me this is nothing, baby wait till you get paid just wait till you see the money

Red Herring 02:00
EVERYTHING WILL FALL IN LINE EFFORTS WILL EXTEND LIKE ARMS TALENTS WILL SHARPEN AND TONGUES WILL DULL MAY THE MAGNITUDE OF THEIR FOLLY BE REVEALED TO THEM IN A BLINDING FLASH IN YEARS' TIME TIMELINES WILL SHRINK AND CONVOLVE TO AID YOU
9.
I've been waiting for too long, now this moment is more than opportune quit your baying, your nay-saying find the mind to shove your manifesto I swear I'll be content when I am in control another time, another mind may let this grow let it all go I hate to break it to you I won't let you tear it from me please don't let them feel supreme so (b)elated neglected maintenance fashion statement very customary stifled, constipated, bad blood's circulating got a little system and the system works I pray it's fine, I can't deny I'm in control another time I'll do it right and I'll explode never again I hate to break it to you I won't let you tear it from me please don't let them feel supreme (everything will fall in line efforts will extend like arms talents will sharpen and tongues will dull may the magnitude of their folly be revealed to them in a blinding flash in years' time timelines will shrink and convolve to aid you) surely, slowly, surely... your deliberating doesn't even phase me I've got the spite to do this for another year a friend for life need more time benevolent time (give me more time)

about

THE ARISTOCRATS is a report from a mental journey; a strenuous attempt at recording the tangle of thoughts, intents, and actions that give rise to one another.

Spirituality and animal instincts form a confused kaleidoscope of the intimate and the vulgar. Pieces that are essentially songs of loving, abhorring, and anger, are interwoven with themes that are impersonal; here, sex, addiction, and frustration are entwined with the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Discordianism, as well as John Calhoun’s thoughts on rats. Short pornographic ecstasy exists on equal grounds with grand yearning, and fulfillment shares its bed with guilt and failure.

THE ARISTOCRATS refers to a cult anti-joke; everyone knows the punchline and the only thing that counts is the duration, the delivery. We all know how this ends -- let’s be here together for a while then, to make this trip. A trip from a state of being torn, of no control, through hurt, panic and isolation, to acceptance and realisation.

about

Godbite Szczecin, Poland

We entertain ourselves by conjuring up ideas way bigger than the feeble bodies that will exercise them. Ill-equipped, repeatedly losing our rehearsal spaces, members, and wits, we endure instability.

With ourselves as our only weakness, the group is now armed with more movie quotes and dream journals than you could shake a stick at.

Unable to take a hint, Godbite continues writing new music.
