Pig Pen 01:52 video
Rub it in, Ensure the stain No rain that could wash it away Pull the mask down and hide your face Take the pain, learn to push it away And, hey Tell it to yourself enough and you can make it all true But if it’s yourself you’re fooling, are you the fooling or fooled? It’s all the same Cuz either way I guess the joke is on you. Exposed, laid on display Atop that bed that you made Could never tell the love from the blame Easier just to push it away It’s all the same.

Seeds 02:05
Oh, What’s that saying about a chain and it’s links? I’d make my point if you could feel as strong as You think One that bends into your head til it sticks Instead I bite my tongue til I bleed Forgot your lines? What you scripted you’d say? Not the turnout that you’d hoped for your little charade? Lone audience, we’re at the stories end Nowhere to run away Can’t call it chance because it’s never been missed You’re bottom of your mind, they’re at the top of your list You leave out seeds so the birds can feed While you wither to bits Know it’s just the part that you’ve chosen to play The one you’re left alone with at the end of the day You leave out seeds so the birds can feed While you wither away Give all your seeds so you’ll never know What could become if you let a seed grow

Circles 01:58
Fight to find a crack to break this mold That has its hold on me and take control Time and time again I try but I know I just keep on comin, runnin back to the old What never ends It can never begin Guess I learned the meaning of the word again, again It’s hard to know When it all feels the same But the sun seems lower than yesterday It’s hard to know When it all feels the same But the sun seems lower today And now all I see Is in shades of grey The colors, they all but fade away Fight to find a crack to break this mold That has its hold on me take control

Jump on in, the water feels great! Absolve the sins that you have yet to create Is it really swimming if you’re goin with the flow? Who cares where you’re headin if you ain’t going alone You dream of being smarter You dream of feeling stronger You dream of just… You dream of just being more You dream of being martyred You dream of treading water But your feet… Your feet are touching the floor Better to play it safe Than swim against the waves You’ve longed for so long for something that feels like Something you’d call home Change your face to fit the crowd And pray nobody will know You dream of being smarter You dream of feeling stronger You dream of just… You dream of just being more You dream of being martyred You dream of treading water But your feet… Your feet are touching the floor

about

Following their debut EP released earlier this spring, Squint is swiftly back with their follow-up, “Wash Away”. The two pair nicely together, where “Feel it” is much more driving and abrasive, “Wash Away” leans more into the poppier sound influenced by ‘90s DIY indie-rock from bands like Superchunk, Archers of Loaf, and Dinosaur Jr.

While “Wash Away” still does a great job of displaying Squint’s angsty, melodic hardcore heard on their debut, this batch of songs sound more upbeat with guitar melodies acting almost as backup vocals for Brennan to shout with. Again, Squint has carved their own path in this modern age of melodic hardcore with a unique rhythm to easily get stuck on repeat.
