Dragotin They're really good at sticking to their style, but still re-inventing it throughout the album. Favorite track: Choke.

Jaws 02:43
It was a nice day at the beach Til you sunk in your goddamn teeth Into my legs I couldn’t run away Into my chest I couldn’t stand the pain A walk had never felt so nice Til you told me what was on your mind You left your problems in my brain Do I look Like your goddamn drain Drain the pain

Talk 04:08
As long as I’ve known I was born to resist Patiently waiting to clip your problems to my wrist Cries for help delayed by the dark of night All in good time, the troops still have a reason to fight for you I’ll lower my defenses when you call Instead of trying to feel nothing at all Can you tell me what's happening to talk Time to tear down these crumbling walls Spent my life trying to feel the days away But it’s tough to do when all of your days are filled with pain Got all the way to panic who told me that there’s no room for you here I’ll lower my defenses when you call Instead of trying to feel nothing at all Can you tell me what's happening to talk Time to tear down these crumbling walls I’ll lower my defenses when you call Instead of trying to feel nothing at all Can you tell me what's happening to talk Time to tear down these crumbling walls

S'mello 04:16
I took a walk away from all the noise today. I’m overwhelmed with thoughts that I can’t satiate. 5 o’clock at 10am My face is numb, but god I can’t stand the thought of faking. My attention span is waning. Friends that feel like strangers. I’ll let you know when I’m coming around, I’m coming around, I’m coming around, I’m coming around! I think that I’d rather be at home Watching some reruns of Malcolm in the Middle. Or burning matches because you know that I really like the smell, it’s sorta comforting when I start to feel so by myself And your friend Charlotte? Yeah I guess she’s fine. We’d probably get along if I even cared to give the time. We could mellow out and try to make the best of both of our situations, but anything that’s good for me just won’t do! Oh! Why the hell am I still here? I’m supposed to be overthinking everything in bed by now. I feel so helplessly small in such a big room, and I can’t help that I feel so much less than you. Tactless rationalizations, I’m grasping for some recourse. I could try to walk it off but man that’s such a pain in my ass. I view the world in search of, I dunno, some deeper meaning. Just because I don’t want the help doesn’t mean that I don’t need it!

Choke 03:48
My conversations feel strange. I’ll talk myself in circles for hours straight. Don’t mind me, choking on my own medicine. wash it down with a tall glass of ignorance. How long til I croak? Get the cigarette smell out of my coat. How far will you go? Hiding in plain sight. How long til you choke? I can’t breath. How far will you go? Sleepless for days as a matter of consequence. Cleanse your soul of sin just to dirty it up again. Why don’t I know what I should know by now? Why don’t I know what you know? How long til I croak? Get the cigarette smell out of my coat. How far will you go? Hiding in plain sight. How long til you choke? I can’t breath. How far will you go? Are you fucking kidding me?! How long til I croak? (How long how long?) How far will you go? (How far how far?) How long til you choke? (How long how long?) How far will you go? Hiding in plain sight.

Helium 04:08
Tear me down Stare into my soul? Won’t you bring it out? ‘Cos it hasn’t seen the light in years Autumn falls She’s down here for good But she left her heart Where she left her tears On the floor On the floor Don’t you know? Don’t you know your words are toxic? Why am I so conscious? Why do I care what people think? When helium floats off my tongue all I do is sink? Helium, won’t you come and save the day? Helium, why can’t I have it my way? Helium, won’t you come take me away? Helium, won’t you come and save the day? Pick up my feet You pick up my mood But I’m torn between the other you’s You interrupt My incessant thought For the time being you’re the one I want My desire My desire Don’t you know? Don’t you know your love is toxic? Why am I so conscious? Why do I care what people think? When helium floats off my tongue all I do is sink? Helium, won’t you come and save the day? Helium, why can’t I have it my way? Helium, won’t you come take me away? Helium, won’t you come and save the day? Oh oh the fire Is burning brighter Oh oh the fire Is fueled by the helium Oh oh the fire Is burning brighter Oh oh the fire Is fueled by the helium

about

The Missing Letters Minnesota

With roots all over the Midwest, the suburbs of the Twin Cities became a crossroads for this rambunctious crew. Gearing up to release the last two installments in a trio of EP’s in 2021, the band has created a new sound for themselves grounded in the grunge footsteps of former members. The Missing Letters, create nostalgic emo/punk melodies that are heavily driven by coarse Seattle grunge rhythms. ... more
