Don’t excuse
Raw prawn stance
Do not excuse
My lemon lips
Truth teeth
Fucking speak
We do the raw prawn
To get at you.
Don’t confuse
The give with take
Don’t confuse
My heart with your head.
What we follow
Our own star
We love Raw Prawn
Because we want to.
Liberation
Do you understand it baby?
Liberation
Over everything
Liberation
Un-assimilation
No confusion
Is no excuses.
A new room
Is what we need
A new way of moving
Is what we are.
A few more
Nerves are sore
Yet another
Disconnection.
And one more
Untruthful answer
Do the Raw Prawn
Do it RAW.
Vivre la liberation
Vivre la difference.
A non discourse
(is) a new limit
Leaves me raw
It cuts me sore
It leaves me sore
It leaves me RAW
A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
A record so nice, I bought it twice. I haven't stopped listening to "Book Of Curses" digitally since it came out in November. So when Bandcamp Friday came around and I saw a few copies of the limited edition were left, it was time to buy it physically. A perfect, contemporary encapsulation of where the four members came from before, and where they'll take music going forward. Here's to hoping they make it to the States when this whole pandemic thing gets sorted out. Ape Mummy
This Seattle 3-piece blast out their frisky punk LP via Kill Rock Stars. You might want to avoid their couch, though. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 16, 2015
This Baltimore group rough up post-punk with dark post-hardcore riffs and chaotic choruses, never losing a fine-tuned sense of melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 13, 2024
