    Comes in a reusable plastic sleeve with the artwork as like a flappy sleeve thing. I know there's an actual name for this type of packaging but I can't find the actual name right now. Good news is it features all the songs on our first EP Terra in glorious digital sonic waveforms.

    You can pop it in a cd player and listen to it, you can use it also as a drink coaster. Despite what you think it wouldn't make a good frisbee, you should use an actual professional frisbee for that. Oh! Or are they called flying discs? And frisbee is one of those situations where that's a brand and we associate all those products with that brand name now, like kleenex instead of tissue.

    Well hey. you get the CD if you buy.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Terra via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Scour
Root
The grassland
in search of the Colossus

Grip the earth, then push away
Distance closes (target nears)
Territory Violated
Two tonnes of flesh and armor
outnumber, the Rhino charges
Surrounded by foes on the African plain
Stone teeth on sticks, can pierce to bone
yet hubris shows in their naked skin

Man
Circles beast
Like the planets
Cycle
Around the sun

Exhaustion snares every muscle
Desperate (Retching blood)
Spark of life irrefutably fading
all things return to Mother Earth
Mortality certain, the Rhino Charges
Banishing man to the clay
Whittle them down, Only one remains
tense with adrenaline and fear.

Mutual wound,
solemn gaze exchanged
an unspoken vow to finish what was started

Ivory rends flesh
spear enters throat
feud stilled by death
foe next to foe.

"This is a bit of a weird and borderline one. All things considered, we feel that this is more on the heavy, sludgy post-rock side, as opposed to metal."
