Dig It

waking up and walking out to the world
digging myself deeper into the earth
wanting to drift away into the unknown
counting down of all the time that i own
my time's coming up
my time's ticking down
i spent time digging down into the ground to bury all the things that i found
setting out to bury all that i know
skeletons and ghosts will surely follow
don't you waste no time. drop me in the sea
pray the ocean is deep enough for me
my time's coming up
my time's ticking down
i spent time digging down into that ground
dig it
pick me up and carry me to the grave
let me down and bury me all the way
take me out to sea, that watery grave
let me drift away, carried by the waves
my time's coming up
my time's ticking down
i spent time digging down to the ground to bury those things that i found

Drive Around

it's been so long
quit your unrequited lovesong
it's gone so late
time's been laid to waste
in the short run
he knows something has to be done
leaves the zip code
takes to the open road
this boy has gone mad
this madness really makes him glad
watch him drive around way across town
picking up the lost and found
drive around, drive around
recover all the lovers, who've broken down
they can see him
they wonder if they recognize his face
these things don't matter
when you really need to up and leave this place
this boy has gone mad
this madness is the thing that makes him glad
watch him drive around way across town
picking up the lost and found
drive around, drive around
recover all the lovers, you’ve broken down

Waited Too Long

waiting for my time in the sunshine
cursing the life spent outside of the light
i challenge conventions that lie deep inside of me
i open up my mind and i’m longing to be free
i've waited
too long
i've waited
for far too long
to get where i belong
growing complacent is no place for me
seeking to strike out all i can see
i won't wait much longer. i'll walk into the light
i'll let it reveal every single truth in sight
i've waited
too long
i've waited
for far too long
i realized that i was in the spotlight all along
i'll sing it louder now, i'll sing aloud my song
i've waited long
to get where i belong
i tried to pray
oh every day
but i was turned away
and now i'm on my own
all alone
on my own

In the Eyes of Time

it is eerie, though to a degree
as i watch them live their their lives around me
and everyone i used to know
their agendas run in the same fashion
all is the same; all has passed
20 years from now; 20 years past
those wasted hours
i wished i saved away
those wasted hours
i could use them one day
and that day may never come
count your regrets one by one
and live with what you haven't done
those wasted hours
i wished i saved away
those wasted hours
i could use them today
as the years float by
we're left to wonder why
in the eyes of time
which is the greater crime
could you live with all the things you've done,
or should you live with what you haven't done?
what speaks louder, action or inaction?

Earthy, jammy progressive rock with thick, chewy guitars and tasty organs. The music is loose and drawn out but rarely loses itself. Just a really vibin' listen.

Just saw them at RippleFest in Austin. Great live band! Really like this Demo album- sounds great on vinyl. Slightly different sound to the vocals, which I liked quite a bit. Music fantastic.

Starts out like a big truck and rolls on triumphantly and confidently.

Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.
go to album
Italian stoner powerhouse Tenebra has the heft of Sabbath and the hooks of Saint Vitus in their powerfully imposing tunes.

Sonic Praise
by Ecstatic Vision
Percussive, guitar-driven, psych-chaos from Philly trio who never take their adrenaline-fueled feet off the gas.

Burning of The Season
by The Flying Eyes
supported by 22 fans who also own “In the Eyes of Time”
This album is utterly and completely fantastic. Just mind-blowing heavy psych. A shame that this band folded after this album, because it’s just so, so good. Yet another Ripple release that gets played regularly.
