I don't believe in nothing no more And I fail to see, fail to be, fail to me So you can keep your cool cities Dot your I's and cross your T's Cause I just don't believe No I just don't believe I don't believe in nothing no more I'm in a great amount of pain My life's going down the drain But I can't take the blame No I can't take the blame Fell short of my desire Extinguishing the fire Made myself a liar Heart rate rises higher Try to slow my pace It's written on my face Now that I've got the taste Been driven to disgrace I don't believe in nothing no more x2 Keep on keeping on Couldn't slow down if I wanted to x2 chorus I just don't believe in nothing Tell me that I'm good for something

Every Song I Ever Write Is About You Need to top me up Enough is never enough Don't know how to hurt So just act tough All I can hope is that it keeps you Far away yeah Far away yeah Throw away all the regret Trying hard just to forget I'll find a way yeah Now I'm falling down Because I think too much The shortest straw I try to clutch The closer I get the further I'm (chorus) When you're feeling blue At least it's something to do Just one more step To keep away from you The less that I think, the further I'm (chorus) I’ll find away yeah x4

She likes the boys who play football 'Cause they don't treat her well She goes a million miles an hour And then she wonders why she's still in hell He plays call of duty When he's not on Facebook He busts his ass for a paycheck Just so he can go out for a look (We got to celebrate the weekend) I want to get my kids a private education And I'm so sick of talking About my big dumb head Sick of trying to find the answers When I should be giving up instead I'm gonna need some money Guitar might pay the rent But it won't give my kids a chance Unless they want to turn out like their dad (Would it be so bad?) chorus I want them to be all they can be An opportunity to get the opportunities they deserve A chance to be heard chorus

Stonapop 03:02
Keep your name on my lips, say You always gave me your time Got your thoughts in my head today Sometimes I'm way out of line Gotta say I'm a cheap skate Are you sure that's all right? Got the feeling your missing me When I turn off the light I'm trying to see out the night Cause I want you to see I was right and I want you to see what you do to me I used to try but now I don't want to fight Past don't pull on me backwards Future please take your time Love, you may as well stick around But just keep it to yourself chorus x2

#1 Son 03:22

Tragedy 03:40
This ones for all the pretty girls I loved in High School All the ones that were never there for me And this ones for the people that still believe in me Should've seen just how I used to be Every mistake becomes a tragedy Every fumble helps me fall apart Every mistake ends in a tragedy Every fuck up brings me back to the start This ones for all the strangers that never notice me Or as far as I can tell And this ones for the friends that still deceiving me I guess I'll see you all in hell Every mistake becomes a tragedy Every fumble helps me fall apart Every mistake ends in a tragedy Every fuck up brings me back to the start [Every stupid thing that you said It repeats in my head Like the window wipers on my way home]x2 Every mistake becomes a tragedy Every fumble helps me fall apart Every mistake ends in a tragedy Every fuck up brings me back to the start

Touch it, But don't hold it Just enough, For you to judge it Greens go, And red's stop And orange is you shouldn't but you do it anyway Live it, But don't breathe it Just ghosts, Who still need it Greens go, And red's stop And orange is you shouldn't but you do it anyway So high Be mine baby Avoid all consequence Just slaves of substance Greens go, And red's stop And orange is you shouldn't but you do it anyway You think it's indulgence It's not greed, it's compulsive You know you should stop It seems so easy but you do it anyway So high Be mine baby I don't want to die But I can't stand the thought of living

Triggers 03:30
They used to get me but now I've strayed Took it's time for my mind to change They can't get to me anymore So I better go make some more Believe in now Took my own vow To never stay the same You got to know That when you're low Embrace a triggered change It's getting easier now to see What kind of difference it makes to me The things that used to freak me out Are the things I've come to doubt (chorus)

about

After an EP and 2 singles under their belts, Ultrafeedy have felt it necessary to release a full- length album to be lost amongst the rabble of countless bands releasing music independently. The 10-track debut began production in late 2015 at Alchemix Studios, with all overdubs being tracked at lead singer Reuben Aptroot’s home studio. It features 2016 singles Stonapop and Private Education as well as new songs Slaves Of Substance, I Don’t Believe In Nothing No More and fan favourite #1 Son.

The title Aggressive Sincerity refers to the lyrical theme running through the album. They are an honest, direct and sometimes blunt commentary of trying to find one’s place in society. There are also observations on the binge/party culture of young people and personal struggles with mental health issues that are all too common these days.

However bleak this may seem, these stories are packaged in boundless energy and power pop sensibility. Drawing on influences from So-Cal punk, desert rock and local grunge revival outfits, Ultrafeedy focus on recapturing their spirited live performances. Not wanting to sound over produced, a conscious effort was made to keep the recordings raw, with most of the guitars being tracked in one day. These recordings were then mixed back at Alchemix by long time collaborator and friend Marly Lüske.

Ultrafeedy Brisbane, Australia

When 2 young up-start's from the northern suburbs of Brisbane decided to temporarily put down their beers and pick up some instruments, the ever-loud rock outfit Ultrafeedy was born. Bursting with energy, and some hearty banter in between, these guys take performing their art seriously (unlike their band bio). ... more
