SNOWBEAST 05:40
Leave me alone in a wooden house With all of my fears and all of my doubts If only i could put my mind at ease And capture a glimpse of a Snowbeast But i don't see Colours anymore Ever since you left And i cant speak Even if i tried Cause you ripped out my tongue And i cant hear When you call my name Cause you never did And i cant taste Your lips on mine Cause they're on some other guy But i can feel, and i can love Yeah, i can feel, and i can love But i cant do this anymore I cant do this anymore I cant do this anymore Leave me alone in a wooden house With all of my fears and all of my doubts If only i could put my mind at ease And capture a glimpse of a Snowbeast

Broke down my arms were full Don't know where we should go Worked all day killing trees Washed their blood of our jeans It takes a push make a storm A brave bee to make a swarm Dark red leaves on my hands After we're making plans Broke down my arms were full Don't know where we should go So let me know when you're home From somewhere Ontario We're young our blood is gold We're young our blood is gold We're young our blood is gold We are, we are getting old I will run to the shore Setting fires to the floor I will run to the shore Setting fires to the floor I will run to the shore Setting fires to the floor I will run to the shore Setting fires to the floor

Backyards and alleyways Skateboards and roller blades It's all stayed the same It's all stayed the same It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed Backyards and alleyways Skateboards and roller blades It's all stayed the same It's all stayed the same It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed It's you that has changed

Everyone says you gotta go outside I just wanna be left inside Everyone says you gotta find yourself I just wanna be by myself And kids at the beach are running around I'm in the water being pushed around I just wanna be pushed around Just gonna let the waves push me around No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto Maybe we'll live in the ghetto Maybe life's good in the ghetto Maybe we'll be happy in the ghetto Take a bus down to the East Monroe And when we get we'll just lay low I just wanna dream all day long I just wanna dream all day long I just wanna dream all day long I just wanna dream all day long No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto No one wansta live in the ghetto Maybe we'll live in the ghetto

We woke up on the beach We lost what we found, what we found was our beat We sold out for some meat We wanted something else to eat One day... We played for some kids They bought out name on some disks They showed all their friends So we drove, and we drove, and we drove off a cliff One day... As we were falling down As we were falling down I swear I heard a sound I swear I heard a sound As we were falling down As we were falling down I swear I heard a sound I swear I heard a sound As we were falling down As we were falling down I swear I heard a sound I swear I heard a sound As we were falling down As we were falling down I swear I heard a sound I swear I heard a sound As we were falling down As we were falling down I swear I heard a sound I swear I heard a sound A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf A howl like a wolf

Dingus on Music:
"There is something so heartbreakingly beautiful about Snowbeast. Perhaps it’s the mixture of growly vocals and smooth guitars. Whatever it is, I can feel the emotion just bursting out and it’s enough to set my soul at ease. This is an album that has impact and purpose"

Wake the Deaf:
"▲ S N O W B E A S T ▲, is a swirling concoction of musical styles that is hard to pin down. There are relaxed surf rock baselines (‘Backyards and Alleyways’), Vampire Weekend-esque African influences (‘No One Wants to Live in the Ghetto’), electronic beats and fuzzy repetitive choruses (‘A Howl Like a Wolf’) and in-your-face shouty bits (‘Snowbeast’ and ‘Somewhere, Ontario’)."

Vancouver Weekly:
"Snowbeast’s sound is like a goody bag stuffed with Beach Fossils rhythmic beats, Vampire Weekend well-strung pop and a generous scoop of roughed up Julian Casablacas-esque vocals."

Sound Vat:
"The EP has two contrasting but equally important traits when speaking of the band’s talent – cohesive to the max, it sounds like a full record, but because it’s only five songs long and also awesome, it leaves you wanting so much more."

What's Protocol?:
"This Canadian trio stood out immediately. There’s something that just sounds so good to my ears in that jangly, lo-fi rock and roll, nostalgic vibe, I find myself hitting play over and over again."
