Reactionary 02:06
Reactionary Always annoyed You've got your act and Arguments all on point Take shots from your shelters No cause for debate Seething with anger Misdirected hate Prepackaged labels Hot iron brands Scathing abuses It's all in demand It's a big party Come pick your side It's a great time For us to be alive Reactionary Always annoyed You've got your act & Arguments all on point Symbols of hatred We've turned into Gods Judgement upon all For I am the Lord Witch-hunts & trophies Lynch all the snakes Blackened & painted & burnt at the stake Assassinate Incinerate Don't tolerate Burnt at the stake OUTRAGE! CLICKBAIT! VIEW RATES! STREAM HATE! Reactionary Always annoyed You've got your cause & Arguments all on point

Double Down 03:46
Try to read my face I'd be damned if you could see through Your eyes give away The thoughts inside your mind I know your kind Show me what's your next move Predicted it, like I thought You made me wait for you Countless hours & at what cost Drank it all away Gave it all for what Done taking all the hits now I'm not your fucking bailout Done placing all the bets now I'm not your fucking bailout x2 Take an arm for a helping hand Ripped the shirt right off my back Cause you're a thief I'm a survivor I can fend for my fucking self Play me like your next move Called your bluff & you got caught You used me through & through Endless times for all I'd got Took it all away Sold it on the spot Done taking all the hits now I'm not your fucking bailout x3 Done placing all the bets now I'm not your fucking bailout YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCK! x2 Skies open Lies spoken Our lives broken You won't get no forgiveness

Pedigreed 03:34
Conversations we make Restroom stalls, coffee breaks Boardroom meetings, interviews Shirt & trousers, shiny shoes Know what makes em Better than you Buy them coffee Join their crew Read the rules Lead the herd You'll only get what you deserve Conform & prosper, masturbate Don't worry bout it, you're doing great Make way for the cool new breed Can't compete those pedigreed Know what makes em Better than you Grades & foreign accents too Leaders, prophets wearing suits Projections, targets in pursuit Everyone's expendable Management’s called for review Hope you find your own way out Pack your stuff We'll see you soon Can't compete Those pedigreed x2

Lost in the promised dream Steel girders & beams Dark hues from a murder scene Disposable second hand lives Crushed, choking alive Hear it play in the back of your mind Gnashing jaws Grinding against the grain House of cards A debt waiting to be repaid No time for second thoughts in your head There's a child to be fed Another breadwinner dead I hear just silence Silence I hear just silence Less unfortunate fools Not quite unlike me Tricked & conned by those that serve their own selfish means Cogs & gears that tick & function Never to retire Running out of time As we light our own funeral pyres Dear God (what God?!) My plea (what plea?!) Where lies my promised dream? Reward (these dogs) Their schemes (they're thieves!) No safety nets, no sleep Oh God (Fuck God!) Believe (our grief) How all our fates are sealed! Their ploys (deployed!) Deceit (indeed!) Warrants & death receipts Colourless lives Greyscale dreams

about

‘Greyscale Dreams’ explores sounds and themes that stem from the angst of the daily grind, the people that get lost, perish in the process and remain forgotten in the apathetic, vast populations of Mumbai, the city the band is based out of. The lyrics are a commentary on the human condition in a bleak, black-white-and-grey world where the world gets farther from the light with each passing day.

about

Pacifist Mumbai, India

Pacifist is a Bombay based Post-Hardcore act that takes inspiration from the anxiety & despair of urban existence as much as it is inspired by the lyrical & emotive range of 90s hardcore, the minimalism & loud-soft dynamics of post-punk, coupled with a sound that’s awash in noise & melodic crescendos to deliver powerful, fuelled performances. ... more
