Unicorn Hole Between the shrieky, panicked screams and guttural growls, between the sudden drops to clean guitar sections and the abundance of overpowered bass drops, and between the digital influences and catchy hooks, Overly Excited could totally be a followup to ISMFOF's Slaughter. And it's kinda better than the followup we did get, just sayin. Awesome stuff guys, hope I make your top eight. <3 Favorite track: Aqua ft. Chesley Ova.

I should have killed you When you had your first birthday I think I shot myself Wouldn’t that be so Hysterical Wake up Every day feeling uncertain Unnatural Trying to catch My bearings but in all honesty I’m unsure of how to Cope Expected but can’t stay busy But the portal Keeps slipping through my fingers Every once in a while (Once in a while) An apathetic thought Helps me convince myself I’m not just here to die I’m pretty sure I found you now (Was that where you where hiding all along?) Because I was right there (I could see you) The stars were compatible And now we’re not so innocent And now we’re not so innocent And now we’re not so innocent (Thats what I said) And now we’re not so innocent (You spoke in me then) And now we’re not so innocent I was all right to be thinking about this Expectations were among us Like two young cats batting with claws Receded, Now I’m expanding substantially Tell me where Tell me where You think It resides It resides Universal consciousness Is reaching out its arms And now I’m wide awake So suck me Into your vortex I wasn’t even feeling That siding effect of (You know you couldn’t get away) Wake up! Wake up! I knew something was wrong Something was wrong That will suffice Wake up! Wake up! I knew something was wrong But now This is the end *whimpering Bitch you don’t know Or understand how insignificant You are to me now I fucking forgot about your habits Your personality Is that of a Toxic substance spill…

Put your hands up You’re in denial Be aware that we’re still on trial If you want to be the judge I’ll be the jury The verdict is in You’re guilty I’m just gonna dip my toe in the pool Misguided but never tried it I’m so desperate to reinvent myself Who’s that person? In your body What do you take me for, a fool? If you want a declarative statement This is bullshit Your lips Are so chapped Doesn’t that hurt when you talk? Say goodbye To the distant memories We had We have to acclimate To the situation That we did not create Put your hands up You’re in denial Be aware that we’re still on trial If you want to be the judge I’ll be the jury The verdict is in You’re guilty I’m just gonna dip my toe in the pool Misguided but never tried it I’m so desperate to reinvent myself *angry yelling So this where We try to ask ourselves What’s wrong with me? I’m not sure anymore Is that a thing in my arm Or a fucking polyp in my nostril? I think it is In your body (I think I need a doctor) (I think I need a doctor please) If you want a declarative statement I know I have at least a couple of friends Wait a second Did you say Swimiing’s lame? You are a fucking liar Wait a second Did you say Swimiing’s lame? You are a fucking liar You might think that But your wrong Time and time, time and time Increasingly infuriating me You think you’ve got opinions But you’re wrong You’ll change my mind once it’s made You bitch We’ve got to maintain and sustain Just give me one moment Let me explain We’ve got to maintain and sustain Just give me one moment Let me explain

Waking up next to you Everyday I get high Here’s the change in mood Conflict of interest What’s going on Going on in my head At times you feel ideal At times I hate myself Remember There’s something wrong with You I told you I could die now It’s all the same I don’t want to bother you with my P’s and Q’s Don’t make a mistake Ooooooo And even if you circumvent the situation About this time About this time Tomorrow’s here So make the best of it React like you don’t care You seem like you don’t know It’s apparent But it’s so fucking obvious I swear to god This idle state Well I’m guessing the answer I don’t know Let me tell you the truth It might hurt but seriously We’re not here to pretend Listen, listen We’re not here to pretend Listen, listen I swear, if there’s one thing I do Wait a sec, what did I say? I forget about it, it seems unlikely to me We always try to cope There’s nothing wrong with what you do Experiment Let go, Let go *rant I guess one person can make a difference It’s a realization of what is to fend I guess one person can make a difference It’s a realization a supposition I guess one person can make a difference It’s a realization of what is to fend I guess one person can make a difference It’s a realization a supposition I resign

I couldn’t be anymore of a fucking Empath, you don’t Understand how it is to Live It is to Live in my skin, I guess What’s the word What’d they say Its not like him To act this way I think your memory is fuzzy So here’s a refresher So I do recall A sense of coherence Not over analytical And it’s not like that And it’s not like that It’s only me feeling erratic Over nothing You’ve gotta stop These self indulgent Tendencies Because it seems to me Because it seems to me If you feed the flesh Then you feed the beast Subsequently now you know You’re your own feast I’ll get over it, theres nothing wrong with them I could even see there’s nothing Quite naturally When you’re left On your back this time It’s because of why? *solo So I do recall A sense of coherence Not over analytical And it’s not like that And it’s not like that It’s only me feeling erratic Over nothing So i’ve been Awkwardly prearranging Contingency plans Yeah, it’s artificial When you speak you crawl Get up, become accustomed I’ll get over it Theres something wrong with him Been awkwardly prearranging Contingency plans I’m the biggest one in this room (What does that make you?) Now the next question How we presume and consume All these answers What’s the word What’d they say It’s not like him To act this way I think your memory is fuzzy So here’s a refresher What’s the word What'd they say It’s not like him To act this way I think this is what I am It’s who I choose To be

about

"Overly Excited For Underwhelming Situations" is an EP of pure post-hardcore nostalgia crafted by young homebodies Bryan Hampton & Caleb Trice. The two spent months writing and recording a majority of the EP's demos throughout 2017. After working out the finer details between hiatus's, the songs were finally complete by early 2021. Influenced by coming-of-age, break-ups, anxiety, & lack of sleep; "Overly Excited For Underwhelming Situations" brings a nostalgic charge of sincerity to our lives, a communal rhythm that has seemingly been lost. Now here and never too late, Chidori is found.
