whatever you take from influences such as: mastodon, breach, old man gloom, his hero is gone, anodyne, damnation ad., engineer, neurosis, coalesce, baroness, knut, asschapel, forensics, minor times, botch, face down in shit, coliseum, torche, black cobra, akimbo, ocean, generation of vipers and about a gazillion other bands...
no rays from the holy heaven come down
on the long night-time of that town;
but light from out the lurid sea
streams up the turrets silently-
gleams up the pinnacles far and free-
up domes- up spires- up kingly halls-
up fanes- up Babylon-like walls-
up shadowy long-forgotten bowers
of sculptured ivy and stone flowers-
up many and many a marvellous shrine
Wwose wreathed friezes intertwine
the viol, the violet, and the vine.
resignedly beneath the sky
the melancholy waters lie.
so blend the turrets and shadows there
that all seem pendulous in air,
while from a proud tower in the town
death looks gigantically down

PLANKS is a band that strongly disagrees with any pro views on fascism, rascism, sexism and homophobia. we will NEVER approve friendship to anyone or any profile that thinks these views are correct even in the slightest way. if you think in these directions don't even bother hitting that "add friends" button. it's a waste of time. also if you have "titty and ass" profiles don't bother asking either. to say it with good old Napalm Death: "nazi punks - fuck off!"
