Great.

fractalform Yam's polished performance in Great. is a testament to the group's artistry, chemistry, and hard work; each track represents a clever blend of art rock frame and punk core. The use of mixed-meter rhythms & vocals makes each instance of the guitar feel engaging and momentous. Ash's vocals are powerful and practiced, encouraging a poetic and empathetic contemplation of witty & timely lyrics. I chose Dogs as my favorite track because it's just fucking brilliant, but Workforce is also <3 peak punk. Favorite track: Dogs.

Outta Pocket 01:10
Talk is cheap, but it takes upkeep Fit you with the bill, I'm gonna Bit big for your britches, seems real ambitious But take another spill shot, gonna It's in my nature, second guess my behavior Swallow that pill, I'm gonna Truth of the matter is I'm tired of the chatter You'd think I developed a stutter But I can see you talking, your eyes come out your socket Picturing your locket next to mom and dad I'm outta pocket, toss the key once you lock it Try before you knock it, but vanity is a fad Got a real gut feeling I'm about to hit the ceiling Take a step back I'm gonna Gonna need some fresh air before you pull out my hair Which side of the bread is buttered? You can say the same, but you won't take the blame Pack my bags I'm gonna Gonna get out of town So your sorrows can drown And maybe one day I'll I don't know, join a band and like Shack up with some drummer

What 01:41
What a damn good day Not a thing to say Keep my mouth shut if I've got Nothing good to say Momma told me I'd go far if I just obey But Beam is all I need And silence is my crime Beam is all I need Compliance on my mind What Keep my mouth shut if I've got Nothing good to say Momma told me I'd go far if I just obey Beam is all I need And silence is my crime Beam is all I need Compliance on my mind So keep your fingers out of my mouth And I'll keep mine out of yours Then maybe I don't have to taste What's underneath those fingernails Gross

Workhorse 02:10
Sleeptight, R.E.M. Wake right at 2AM When will I get enough? Can't get enough Brownbag breakfast everyday Brain tastes like cheap champagne When will I get enough? Can't get enough My mouth is dry and wanting No time for hygiene, yawning Through foot sores, Plantar's warts Keep moving, of course of course Don't worry, it's essential Builds character potential Hands dirty, 4:30 Look down and don't worry My time is valuable on their dime Round the clock, ticking time bomb Got on my knees and by the skin of my teeth PM rolls around, my own damn fault I'm on my way to Clock in, clock out Clock in, clock out, workhorse Lose yourself in the workforce
