Cloak and Bladder,.. this song has the perfect short story morale filled ending. It's a good run and pleasure to get to that point, or so in feels in rehearsals.

lyrics

It has been made as a means to an end
It has been made to withstand the test of time
It has been made with majesty, beauty, horror and
It has been made in such a way it must be mine!

It's my unfriendly, giant friend..
I raised yesterday in utter discontent..

Have you seen their crest?
It has wings upon their chest
That's what they think,
That they're above us and the rest!

And so i walked for miles and miles
Through scattered ash an broken promise,
Covered in cloak of hope and futile eforts
Can i dwell in this man made solace?
In this desert divided only by my passing..
All rewards!
All rewards!
Justly awarded..
Justly awarded!

I want everything faded in the background
Focus needs to lay else where,
No matter what you do, it will not be enough
Persistence is futile, you know we've all been there!

I better tell Keith to warm up his gun
'cause now i know that love..
It's not enough, so sell me a gun
The exit strategy,
A contingency.

To sum it up, the inside of this nutshell, so vast and uncaring,
Imagine your whole life waiting on becoming a hurricane..
And they name you "Gert"..
Goddamn it.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf Bucharest, Romania

The Boy Who Cried Wolf started their activity as two local bands from Bucharest collided ( CHESTER & Breathelast ), and Bogdan and Mihai reached out to Alex (PZFI, Backstage Hero) to give it a sincere go at writing some tunes that would better react to their primal needs to play some wild, fast paced music, inspired by old school metal combined w/ Hardcore / Punk vibes. Other sounds may occur. ... more

Grandeur
by White Walls

supported by 4 fans who also own “Cloak and Bladder”

Il faut oser appeler un album Grandeur, mais dans le cas présent, White Walls s’avère largement à la hauteur de cette ambition. C’est un opus qui combine une puissance de feu impressionnante avec un sens de la mélodie indéniable et une technicité sans faille. (Chroniqué sur https://alias.erdorin.org) Stéphane Gallay
