about

Throat Full Of Ash explores a final apocalypse inflicted by Mother Earth as punishment for her maltreatment over the time humans have been exploiting it. Despite it being self-destruction, it's instigated by the deeds of humans. We're not all equally responsible, though.

Multi-national conglomerates and billion-dollar enterprises are gutting the planet and causing immense suffering to underserved peoples and settings.

In the case of this track, Mother Earth recognises that she's inflicting death upon those who don't deserve it, but that culpability lies on those who have selfishly exploited her without regard for others.

lyrics

I painted you a picture of the only solution there is, pointing precisely in its direction
The colours were so bright and defined but you just went ahead and decided to let yourself die

Expired, Expired

It’s my turn, to slaughter

You can’t even blame it on errors or oversights, it was just plain gluttony
More interested in keeping the green in your pocket than keeping it under your feet

But but but but was it worth it?
Tearing the womb from your own mother
Enjoy // destroy

A foot on my throat but now you reap what you sow
The mass purging of your own

Expired, expired
A power, unrivalled
To bring about the end
Of my own suffering
If I go down I take you all with me

I bring about the extinction
You hide, terrified in
My own defiled sanctuary
You broke our trust
I turn the world to rust

It’s pretty obvious who’s at fault here
Don’t look away when I’m speaking
The ones you exploited weren’t able to avoid me either
That grievous misanthropy is on you

Broken heart, broken world

And there were so many chances
I had endless patience but you still fucked it up

You know I held out hope for such a long time
I could feel the sentiment more than the sediment decline
My lungs breathed in the hope of some more life
That reciprocation I used to recognise in mankind
It’s kinda disappointing to say that I think you absorbed my words of wisdom the wrong way
I said to leave no stone unturned but you drilled the foundations
and let my body burn


Burn
The connection between mother and child lost
(Burn)
Did your benefits outweigh the cost?
(Burn)
I lament the lives of those who had no hope
(Burn)
It’s my smoke yet your own hands that choke

It’s your hands that choke

It’s my smoke yet your own hands that choke
It’s my smoke yet your own hands that choke

about

Sugar Spine Sydney, Australia

Angry, hard-hitting, and unflinching. These are only a few words to describe the freshly established Sugar Spine, a hardcore- infused metalcore project from Sydney, Australia. Born out of the creative captivity of quarantine and self-isolation during the pandemic, Sugar Spine isn't as sweet as it sounds.
The music revolves around raw emotion, and zeroes in on sheer rage.
