lyrics

Pass – shut up – pass me admission,
Drug store member, do you remember,
I raised you like a stegosaurus?
Grab your mag, drug store fiddler,
Proud sniffer of money order,
Order a scent of tragedy – as close as I can get

Shoulda gone with the mezzanine

Good play on a insect platter,
Dear neighbor has terminal eye flutter,
With instincts as fast as celluloid,
Bones along a big bone blinker,
Now I feel like a balcony stinker,
Shoulda gone with the mezzanine

All of the impressions were spot-on,
Safe to say the intermission was the exit that I got off,
I’m exhilarated, I’m bored, I’m exhilarated, I’m bored,
I’m exhilarated, I’m bored, I’m just trying to absorb

I’m exhilarated, I’m bored, I’m trying to implore,
That I shoulda gone with the mezzanine

Grab your mag, drug store fiddler,
Proud sniffer of money order,
Order a scent of tragedy – as close as I can get

Mezza-ninety-nine bottleneck slides in unison
Mezza-ninety-nine bottlenose twins

about

Twelves Madison, Wisconsin

Madison outfit Twelves play jagged, rumbling, noisy rock that leans a bit toward the mad complexity of bands like Don Caballero or The Jesus Lizard, moving seamlessly between twistedly catchy melodies and bursts of scalding dissonance. -- TONE Madison

Sure, it's easy to say they sound like Steve Albini with some delay, but that really misses the bigger picture: Albini never used delay. They guys are doing some things that Steve never thought to and that's worth a listen. Gbro
