"Phone when you’re ready for me / Cause I can’t feel no / Bones in my body honey / Not like I used to / Don’t put your money on me / You might just lose me too..."
The absolutely dark cloudy heaviness of "across the board" by Vienna, Austria's alt rock outfit Trauma Glow seems to exorcise demons in a barrage of guitars and pounding drums as the vox pour out abstract poetry, melancholy and spiraling, "Phone when you’re ready for me / Cause I can’t feel no / Bones in my body honey / Not like I used to / Don’t put your money on me / You might just lose me too...". The vocal melodies mirror the bent psychedelic guitar lines or vice versa and the drama never lets up, the pummeling of sound intently looking for crack in the walls, of light to run toward.
Chrome in my dummy body
Can’t wait to get back
Home, I don’t feel safe
I better watch my
Tone when you’re talkin’ to me
Still I can’t feel my
Can’t wait to get back
Home, I don’t feel safe
I better watch my
Tone when you’re talkin’ to me
Still I can’t feel my
There is a lyrical sense of self deprecation or even self flagellation drawing emotional blood.

The massive sound is something to get lost in. A metallic cathartic wash or storm of sound.
