Featuring ex-members of With Honor, Ambitions, and The Risk Taken, Connecticut's LIFT deliver three tracks of crushing yet intricate hardcore on their second E.P. "Harsh Light of the Truth". Drawing comparisons to Snapcase, One King Down, and Riot Stares, LIFT is undoubtedly a band to watch. This is the third press on white vinyl with a black screen printed B side. Limited to 150 copies.
Includes unlimited streaming of Harsh Light of the Truth
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics
A serpents tongue
Behind your teeth
Waiting to spew your
Skewed beliefs
Taking advantage
Of the down and broken
Hate runs in
Every word you’ve spoken
I’m waiting for your end
You’ll get your due,
in the harsh light of the truth
You claim you’ve changed
But the fact remains
You use and abuse
The ones who give you their faith
You claim you’ve changed
But the fact remains
Always playing the victim
You’re in love with the pain
Fear through force
Lying to the people
For your own sick gain
You’ll do anything
To save some face
Confronted with something
You can’t escape
I’m waiting for your end
You’ll get your due
In the harsh light of the truth
You claim you’ve changed
But the fact remains
You use and abuse
The ones who give you their faith
You claim you’ve changed
But the fact remains
Always playing the victim
You’re in love with the pain
Now at the end of the noose
The gavel comes swinging for you
Dragged out into the light of the truth
The gavel comes swinging for you
You’ll get your due
THE GAVEL SWINGS
The gavel swings for you
