dopethrone - hochelaga
released: 2015
label: totem cat records
remember back when you were a kid and you and your friends would always go out on adventures? you'd always go into that abandoned building just outside of town and throw rocks through what windows there were left and you'd go around teasing all of the neighborhood dogs and you'd go into the wooded area behind the pharmacy and pass around that pornographic magazine you'd found in a plactic bag that had been stuffed inside of a hollowed out tree. yeah. those were the good old days,huh? and then there was that day where you and your friends wandered outside of your normal route and went off into the woods near the train tracks because you'd really wanted to throw rocks into the river. none of you cared about the warnings your parents had given you. you needed to throw rocks into the water. it's all that you were able to think about that morning during breakfast. it had to happen. who cares about some guy that may or may not even live in an abandoned camper. what could that guy even do? there would be 4 of you against 1 of him. just let him try something! besides. it was probably all just something that parents told their kids to get them to eat their vegetables and to do their homework and blah blah blah....
you're still not able to remember all that much about that day. why would you want to? even if brad and darryl were still around would they remember anything? would they even talk about it? you could always go and visit ryan but he hasn't said a word since that day. you're not even on his visitors list.
that day.
that day.
you know the guy you saw in the woods that day? the one that lived in the abandoned camper? the one that your parents had warned you about? with his long and unkempt beard and dirty flannel shirt and his ratty looking pants and that smell you could smell even if you were standing a dozen feet upwind from him? and those sunglasses. why was he even wearing sunglasses? there wasn't any sun getting through those trees. why was he even wearing sunglasses?!
that day.
that day.
if that guy were music he'd be this band.

Thanks
