The Taking 03:55
Walkin' these streets Like we got some kind of life My buddy's sliding on the ground With a smoke, for a wife We learned everything That we'll need to know You're growing up too fast and I'm feeling so slow Well the city and the shadows They go hand in hand you got a good job but good luck paying' for the land And the people aren't so pretty but they sure put up a front and leave me feeling stupid Yeah they treat ya like a- Take us all through all your weary proses Stone the victim and burn them with the roses Tell me now there's a light at the end I used to feel so weightless Now I'll never feel again I know what's in my future And I know what's in yours I know who wins I know I know who'll keep keeping score And it won't be me cause I'm busy paying dues Can't you see I'm terrified That's why I'm haunting you Haunting you Well I never felt comfortable in my own skin I don't like to tear it off Get a glimpse of what's within But anybody else, I wanna Watch somebody die I wanna hear their final wish Lets talk about you and I Take us all through all your weary proses Stone the victim and burn them with the roses Tell me now there's a light at the end I used to feel so weightless Now I'll never feel again

Rorschach 03:26
Welcome to the last lone refuge Of all those that are proved To be alive Secure the angel's tidings Hold fast and take a look inside We are chosen dancers Cast adrift so make this last Cause everyone knows The world is round And I'll drift forever Until I'm found If that's your aim Relaxed thoughts Tempt the notion The events Set in motion I'll change hearts And change my mind If I do ever have the time Cause everyone knows The world is round And I'll drift forever Until I'm found Yeah There's a star Callin' my name An apparition Across Aurora's flame And it shines so bright It burns Rorschach Is that you Cleave the dog's head Right in two This world Is not for you And it certainly Well it's not It's not for me

about

Drawing from an array of genres from pop to prog to shoe gaze, the young group brings to the public two songs both aggressive and beautiful. "The Taking" is both a testament to minimalist Indie Rock and a celebration of musicianship, wrapped in emotion. B-side "Rorschach" shows another side of that same approach.

about

Within Rust Vancouver, British Columbia

It's a unique kind of ethic that results in songs like “Rorschach”, with a clear ode to 90's Post Hardcore, and “The Taking” a Killers esque Indie track with a nod to Pink Floyd. In mixing such disparate genres as Progressive Rock and Post-hardcore, there’s a lot of room for error, but Within Rust winds these and more into a strange and accessible Indie Rock package. ... more
