lyrics

I lie, I lie, I lie on your pitchfork hills- it's not the greatest ground for me.
The dirt is loose and other crumbs are bugging me- the worms are rolling out to see.
For all the effort’s worth, for all my gallantry, there is no fluttering.
I tried, I tried, I tried to measure- but the yardstick’s imperial- it’s not the greatest ground for me.

For all the effort’s worth, for all my gallantry, there’s still no fluttering.
The dirt is loose and other things are bugging me- the worms keep rolling out.
I tried, I tried to lay on your pitchfork hills- it's not the greatest ground for me.

I discovered these guys about a month ago and I'm obsessed. Alex has such a powerful voice and Paul's riffs are one of a kind. A unique band with a killer sound, heavy grooves and awesome melodies Anthony Rizzo

Family the Smiling Thrush

An amazing album 👍🏻 It took me a while to get into Boss Keloid’s groove. I knew intellectually that it was my kinda music but I didn’t take to Melted On The Inch like I thought I would. I think listening to lots of modern jazz limbered me up! This is really complicated prog rock with heavy ass guitars added for street cred. I’m so happy that anyone might consider this band cool. They’re fucking cool to me but music like this has been vilified in the past. All hail the new Gentle Giant! Crinklechips

If/when the apocalypse ever occurs, The Black Queen's Fever Daydream will be its official soundtrack and manifesto. And, I'm living for it as we dance ourselves into oblivion. DAS VILLAIN

supported by 4 fans who also own “Lying On Wormy Ground”

I'm deeply saddened that it took me until Sept. 2022 to discover the existence of this band and album. How could my music friends have let me down so thoroughly? How could I not have just sensed the presence of this masterpiece and channeled it from thin air. Absolutely crushing desert sludge, with groove that makes you want to bang your head...against a rusty nail on a prairie fence post. Hayduke X
