Heddbuzz (I.R. Puffinstuff) Pitt duo already knew the tape would be in this collection, which features no shortage of 2-piece bands. But it would be hard to find one with the shreds or very-impressive (at times) vocals quite like these guys. They could've told you we would say that tho. Favorite track: Collapse.

Implosion 05:29
You are keeping busy Wasting time Stacking up on righteous Because you know that’s right. You can fight the silence But it’s mine Fracture all you keep And lose on down the line. I can hear you dreaming, I don’t mind, Like a terror rising And I know, it’s an implosion... BANG. All you knew as holy, In your mind, Falling through contraption On your way down of the hive. I can hear you screaming I don't mind Memory is fleeting, It’s gone… RUN. Washing all my love away Forced a rapture, undone restraints But wave it clear But it’s only our love my dear
2.
Intertwining in my head I can feel her cry I can see it creeping in Straight through my eyes If I call it back into my brain To my shadows lurking there Can you feel my shame Hear it crawling back again I could let it flow through me until I’m dead I could always tear it from my skin I could never understand what fueled all of your whims
3.
Lonely Days 03:17
I couldn’t force it if I tried Sunken underneath all it’s lies I will find out Lost in confusion that you know I will find lonely days I can remember what she said Locked aside your trembling state it shows Worried minds fall through its waste they go
4.
Sunshine falling on your legs Why don’t you grow a pair When you’re blooming Read the leaves I know one day you’ll wilt to shreds Seasons changing Turn your head And look to frost that lays ahead Take a look around you’ll see When it’s come and gone you’ll be pushing up daisies Take a beauty by surprise Send away your bees now you’re drowning in time I smell honey trapping flies Sweet sweet nectar in your eyes I believe her life is led in misery Sometimes someone’s got to weed
5.
Fracture 03:32 video
I kept on chasing Nothing to be found Caught in erasing Stuck underground But I know I could push it through I would let it live I should crack a smile Daydreams, they’re fleeting, I let it roll The fear consuming, just watch it fold The light escapes They watch it break Don’t test the fate I heard it fracture
6.
Alone 03:14
Looking through her eyes Are you a man Staring back into Going insane Drowning desert’s fate Alone Sinking from the heat All by it’s hands Watch her as she weeps Buried in sand But Will you find her again clouding your shame Throw it all away back where it came
7.
You wear the flowers in your hair all the time. The cold-hearted loss of days unknown, what a crime. Destruction, lost in reason, it’s all mine, But in the end I hide it well, I won’t stop. I know your secrets. They reek of hell. Unkempt desire, You can’t prevail. Wake up sleepwalking in a maze, Soaked in nightmares fueling lies, And you know the reaper’s tempting, And now you’re mesmerized.
8.
Do you believe weighted dreams are burning? Drifting in seas, as they’re slowly churning, Dousing the need to be free, no searching. Watching the scene, do you bleed? This is what you’re aiming for. Dominate a metal earth of steel. Casting a wave, or a maze, uncertain, Slowly behave, know your ways, you’re learning. Do you believe weighted dreams are burning? Do you believe all she sees is nothing? Oxidizing where you’ve been, This is what you’re aiming for. All stirring in sin. No surprising, melting whims. This is what you’re aiming for. Don’t you think you’re dead?

Collapse 06:16
Seeping through the dark lies winded As it goes through his head explodes Hold him downward spiral mass revival Looking through staring back at you Look away to life exempt of crisis Run away when you hear your name When your sky begins to collapse Blood is warming thoughts are forming All the lies spawning from your kindness is Crushed by burden angels curse reality and in their deceit gave consent is fleeting mindless breeding Looking through staring back at you I can start to see you collapse Looking through, staring back at you

about

“Collapse” is a continuation of the concept which Fortune Teller launched with their debut. As many of us aimlessly wandered through the confusing and chaotic pre and post pandemic worlds, the protagonist which the ‘Fortune Teller’ story follows has been fighting the same battles. In “Collapse”, as the title insinuates, the combatant is now dealing with the broken pieces and damaged psyches that are left behind in the dust by their opponent, as their sky continues to collapse around them. All of us can see ourselves as the center piece of the Fortune Teller world from time to time, and inevitably, even when we seem to pick up our pieces, the blemishes remain - looking through, staring back at you.

Sonically, the record finds Fortune Teller dialed in, tighter, and meaner than ever. The liberties which were taken in the past are tightened down, pinpointed, and deadly. Featuring an eerie, noise-soaked mix of ferocious guitars, colossal drums, and impassioned vocals, “Collapse” is forty minutes of riffs, breakdowns, explosions, and surprises at every turn. Fortune Teller is a veteran band which has honed their craft for half a decade, and found the secret ingredients for a wall of sound which turns heads.
