like a dead sun rising dawn is severed from the light.
like a snake pit writhing Eve is swallowed by the night.
like demons devising to set fire what in sight.
We sold it for the weight of gold
but the price could not be told
we sold it for the weight of gold
here the hell hounds whining with blood theyve filled their beggars bowl
here the new widow pinning her soldiers fate was not his own.
but the flame soon rising twisted metal shackeles fail
we sold it for the weight of gold
but the price could not be told
we settled for an empty botlle
sold the salt in our bodys for some broken lonely hovel
we waited for the promises given they never came
lies thicker than blood thicker than oil
we sold it for the weight of gold
but the price could not be told
we sold it for the weight of gold

holy locust are incredible with imagery and metaphors, and this album is particularly good at expressing the horror of the world we live in through the most beautiful imagery and sound. i love the instruments used and the way folk blends with punk with this band. holy locust please come to the UK so i can hear the music live <3 you-are-a-saucy-boi

I remember when I first discovered Holy Locust, seeing a live performance that I was having trouble seeing over the heads of Bridge City Sinners lmao! But I have been in love with this album ever since I heard it. My homie has it on in his car constantly. The music is so rich and textured and beautiful, I'll never get over how amazing it is! Truly a masterpiece! werederg
