Crawlspace 03:39
Let's crawl No time to blink No time to think Coldness, sweat, it's drawing near Scrape the excess Blood crawl Go blind feeding it's my time It's my fear Save my Skin spirit Lift me up now Crawl Space Crawl In crawlspace Crawl Crush, fall, feel all time out of bounds now Nowhere Crawlspace confines, a temporal climb Wriggling through, a journey in time Echoes of past, entangled and tight Trapped in the crawl, a time-bending plight Yeah crawl Go blind feeding it's my time It's my fear Save my Skin spirit Lift me up Skree-ah ma ting-a Skree-ah ma ting-a Crawl Space Crawl In crawlspace Crawl Out of time now In a fairyland Here comes a clown Who was I? In the crawlspace's grip, a time-warping bind Wriggling through moments, now lost and entwined Past whispers surround, in the confined space Trapped in the crawl, crawl a temporal embrace Temporal embrace In the crawlspace's grip, a time-warping bind Wriggling through moments, now lost and entwined Past whispers surround, in the confined space Trapped in the crawl, crawl a temporal embrace

Screambled 03:27
A signal sent, lost in cosmic expanse Echoes of distress, a plea left to chance Through void's silence, it fades away Lost in space, where these stars hold no sway Lonely frequencies A distress call In stellar silence, the message astray A plea unheard, adrift out the way Galactic winds carry the signal far But in the vastness, only a dying star A cosmic SOS, a plea to erase Fading away in the endless space Lonely frequencies A distress call In stellar silence, the message astray A plea unheard, adrift out the way In the cold emptiness of space Wounded from cosmic collision Suit breached lifeblood Spill into the Void Unbeknownst to them The peculiar mix of their blood Essence mingled with stardust, a miraculous metamorphosis occurred Coalesce, forming a luminous orb

In the ancient ruins a young mage discovered A hidden chamber whispered about only in arcane legends Illuminated by an eerie glow The chamber held a fabled grimoire Let’s go Swords unsheathed themselves from the walls Axes swung with ghostly precision Blades materialized from the very air And try to evade you’ll get a witch's fingernail in your ear The young mage, trapped in a dance of deadly blades Desperately tried to shield himself with magic Yet, the traps seemed attuned to his every move In the midst of his struggle, the room echoed with haunting laughter Ethereal presence, the spirit guarding knows Swords unsheathed themselves from the walls Axes swung with ghostly precision Blades materialized from the very air And try to evade you’ll get a witch's fingernail in your ear Blades cut through Leaving him surrounded Ethereal storm of glinting edges Grimoire’s glow intensified, absorbing the essence of the fallen mage The chamber once again cloaked in silence Held secrecy to eternal magic Magic

Beneath a cosmic tapestry, traveler in cloak so worn Gaze upon a fading ROM, forlorn and screeching To harness spell guts, a tangled new art Extract like bone from sand, reboot a dying disc With a wave of its hand and a solemn decree A violent purple emerges A sprinkle of hope, a rope descends Paint relinquished, cable in grasp Disc flourish, spinning in mystery To harness spell guts, a tangled new art Extract like bone from sand, reboot a dying disc In sacrifice profound, solitude Hidden in a moon On lunar sea A solitaire wish Tattered cloak billowing, where once fantasy brewed Unknown now Unknown now Its only trace Shreds of fabric Its only trace To harness spell guts, a tangled new art Extract like bone from sand, reboot a dying disc In sacrifice profound, solitude, wormhole food

In the shadow of the first born where the night smiles A clown doll dormant, with empty eyes But when the purple orb weaves its haunting thread, Plastic turns to flesh From the toy chest, a little guy stares, Cackling whispers, beneath the moon and stars Dance with me Stitched with nightmares Pale orange shoes, a sinister clacking In a realm of wishes, cast a spell, the doll's awake Laugh with me Cotton grin, candied stitches Feel a sticky, squishy dream Playmate forgotten, turned porcelain With twisted, wicked step, the creaking floor beneath From the toy chest, a little guy stares, Cackling whispers, beneath the moon and stars, fucker Dance with me Stitched with nightmares Pale orange shoes, a sinister clacking In a realm of wishes, cast a spell, the doll's awake Laugh with me Symphony of teeth Smile in your sleep Smile Go Spells of madness, dreams on display, Inner circus finds its way Skull-fed carnival, where we dance and play Little guy’s presence, piercing Its painted face, a distorted grin A cold touch of laughter, begin With each step, and every twisted prance, A plastic-to-flesh dance Carousel chaos, red lips seem real Waltz into reality Soul-shed carnival, where we cry and pray Little guy’s presence, piercing Its painted face, a distorted grin Dripping sweat, learning how to live With each step, and every twisted prance, A plastic-to-flesh dance Just laugh with me Just laugh with me And dance Bleed like you Breathe like you Pierce your skin Become the old me Unblinking eyes, at the sound of my clacking feet

about

It’s 1999. Somebody someone from nondescript suburbia opens a dusty, old toy box tucked away in a crawlspace underneath a bedroom closet. Out comes a purple clown doll, animated with clacking footsteps, smiling, and singing indecipherable words. Stone, ice, and chains suddenly emerge out of purple smoke emitting from the doll, warping all surroundings into a dungeon. All nearby inhabitants become subject to the clown’s morbid sense of amusement and games of magic and mischief.

written & produced between November 7-23, 2023. Tape edition released on WereGnome Records: weregnomerecords.bandcamp.com/album/spell-piercings
