I went to the supermarket to buy a loaf of bread and I ended up with coco pops and an apple pie isntead. I went to the supermarket to buy a thing of juice, but instead I got some grain waves, snickers and a chocolate moose. Ginger beer, foccacia bread,tiny cheese, nutella spread, chocolate milk, onion rings, carrot cake, so many things to buy. This is why you dont shop high, so much delicious food to buy. Smoke some weed, eat some food. Weed is mean, food is good. Om nom nom nom nom.

Chocolate milky goodness with a little surprise inside When I found I got a puzzle I almost fucking cried All I wanted was a toy just like any other boy Left with a shitty chocolate egg. I wish I was dead.

I like to wear a lot of black 'cause I have a lot of fat, but when it's time to drink a lot there's only one shirt I got. Party shirt! Let's get drunk. Party shirt! Let's get crunk. I like to wear bands on my shirts to show that i'm a punk rock nerd, but on weekends i'm only trying to look like a big fat hawaiian.

Pizza slicers aren't hard devices. So why can't you get it right? Eight even pieces would be nice. Dominos sucks Mr Wedge - You fucked it up Vegorama - You fucked it up 6 Meats - You fucked it up Godfather - You fucked it up I've looked right into your eyes and I know you're dead inside But do you think you perhaps could just this one time get it right?

Open up the cupboard, we have no snacks. A mueslie bar, biscuit, bag of chips is all I really ask I can see soya sauce, tin of kidney beans, but the empty packet of oreos is what really hurts the most. No snacks, no snacks. Snackless, no snacks. We have no snacks. Snackless, no snacks Just bread. Brown bread.

Two dollars in, disappointment out. The cookie hangs while I go without. I paid for you you belong to me. The next guy gets one for free. Customer service, put on hold. Cookieless depression feels so cold. Fuck you cookie.
8.
Starting off the night real slow, before the booze start to flow. Then you get those saucer eyes, now you're the one that I despise Face turning red, clawing at my shirt, yelling in my ear, if only you'd pass out. But you'll suffer the final revenge on the walk home my annoying friend. Booze wears off as you hear chirping and begins "the true punishing".

Don't have change, drivers mad at me. Sitting next to the guy who smells like pee. Beady eyes staring at me. Why don't you sit where I can't see you? Gangster scribbles all over the glass. Shouldn't you fucking kids be in class? Chris Brown ringtones still don't hide talk of who got fingered at lunch time. This would be better if I was drunk, probably, but probably not.
10.
I don't throw rubbish in the sea and I know that I won't now. I saw this shit on the tv and it buzzed me the fuck out. The sea is full of plastic. That is not fantastic.
11.
I don't want to go to the gallery, I want to stay at home and play. I hate looking at paintings, they all look fucking gay. Last time we went my legs got really sore, so I threw a tantrum and sat down on the floor. I'm 18 dad, I can do what I want.
12.
I know you like the meteors, in fact I think I've heard you say that they're just the best band around but I would disagree. I see how you like it. It is quite consistant. But psycho billy is just a wee bit silly. If they just stopped worrying about their quiffs maybe they would write more interesting riffs.
13.
Years spent building my keratin cred, but just one invasion to strike it all dead. Clawing my head til its bloody and raw. This scalp scratching nightmare I cant take no more. Tiny blood sucking parasites here to suck my crust powers away. Insanity through excessive itchiness and only one way to make them pay. Crust punk robert smith. Drink red wine, smoke a spliff. Modern day hipster quiff. Fuck the cure and fuck my life.
14.
Down the bottom of every bottle there's a man with arms wide open, six feet from the edge and he's thinking are we having fun yet? No. Eddie Vedder, Scott Stapp, Chad Kroeger, you're all crap Pearl Jam are such a bore. So much to answer for. I cant take anymore. The sound of one man's jaw.
15.
No greater man will ever be narrator for the BBC. Filling my days of tv with your knowledge of biology. I could watch you every hour, trippy insects and buzzy flowers. Life in cold blood to life of mammals, Attenborough on every channel. Grass is growing and im waiting in anticipation for your softly spoken scientific explanation. David Attenborough, you're quite thorough. "Nature themes"

about

Second (and final) release by Christchurch powerviolence band XfrankgrimesX once again delves into the depressing nature of modern life, covering a diverse range of topics including vending machines stealing your money, getting nits and looking like Robert Smith when you cut off your dreads, the horror of public transport and pizza places that still can't cut eight even slices.

Album is free to download (though we'd love a donation to try and pay back the recording costs) and comes with all the album artwork if you want to make your own hardcopy, or just check out our sweet collage, so do that instead of downloading every track, it just makes more sense.

about

XfrankgrimesX Christchurch, New Zealand

Bored one afternoon a group of friends decided to start a powerviolence band where they could write songs about subjects that mattered to them. No metaphors, no politics, no poetic bullshit. Emerging from the Christchurch earthquakes and being influenced by bands like Spazz and Charles Bronson they have played up and down New Zealand, disappointing people just as life has disappointed them. ... more
