    'Ugly Truths vol 1' compiles the 'Oblivious' and 'Undermine' EP's onto one 12" and adds another 4 songs for good measure. The LP comes in a 12"x24" fold over jacket and is accompanied by an 8 page lyric booklet with new art and essays not included in the original EP's. The combination of additional songs, art, and commentary hopefully make it worth owning even if you already own the EP's.

    Please note, the remaining copies are all on BLACK vinyl.

lyrics

Undermine
Complacent inaction yet internally enraged
Granting them power by not being politically engaged
Easy to control - just as easily ignored
Nothing to fear from our fractured horde

Undermine
Undermine

The time has come to make our demands
No more sitting back on our idle hands
Contempt constrained for far too long
Rise up against all that's wrong

Together we will
Together we will
Together we will
Undermine

The assumption exists that we will not fight
Aimless degenerates with no foresight
Underestimated we lurk underground
And with bricks and hammers we will tear them down


Mired
The neighborhood writhes and heaves
More shots fired no time to grieve
Juvenile felons teen pregnancy
A constant struggle to meet basic needs

Corner stores peddle processed waste
Junk food, cheap booze, beer by the case
Fuel for survival amongst poverty and guns
Immersed in a culture of gangs and drugs

Mired in poverty - the system falls short
Mired in violence - we all fall short
Mired in poverty - the system falls short
Mired in violence - we all fall short

A constant struggle to meet basic needs

PxP firmly embrace that vehicle in the hope of advocating the idea of personal growth & change; personal is political.

Straight Edge.
Veganism.
Human Rights. ... more
