TurnsIntoWine at the beginning, I went with the flow, not fully realizing what was going on, then I caught it, all the layers, all the links, all the threads. woven together into a beautiful album that combines the style of plunderphonics and the structure of the 'Kingdom' style albums. and that ENDING. Bae Arisen is such a powerful end to this album.

in other words; I have done nothing but listen to this album for the past three days. Favorite track: Bae Arisen.

Quentin Blazey This is such a throwback mixtape from dds mixing new techniques with that sampling style that we've come to appreciate from the group. Great project! Favorite track: Black Hole Omegachurch.

lime 💀 somehow, every new DDS drop is my favorite DDS drop yet. awesome and insanely immersive uses of samples. this album made me feel transported to some place nostalgic but totally new. Favorite track: Desperation II.

I know that this is all a propagated myth, A misunderstanding ‘Cause I know infatuation, momentary bliss American candy How you can jump across and still survive the fall Depends on the landing But I know that love is just a tonic to the sixth American candy I treasure your love I never wanna lose it And I've been through the fires of hell And I know I've got the ashes to prove it There's always something magic There's always something new And I've been through a lot of pain in the dirt And I know I've got the scars to prove For you I know that this is just a chemical I want American candy I know that this is just a chemical I need American candy I hope Ohio burns and California floods American Candy I know that this is just a surrogate for more American Candy I know that love is just a chemical I want American candy I know that love is just a chemical I want American candy

How could I ever love someone else? How could I ever love someone else? Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you You're my only one I let go, there's just no one who gets me like you do You're my only, my only one And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay Now that I'm gone Red lights, stop signs I still see your face in the white cars, front yards Can't drive past the places we used to go to 'Cause you know I still love you babe Here I go (Sidewalks we crossed) Scream my lungs out and try to get to you (I still hear your voice in the traffic, we're laughing) You are my only one (Over all the noise) I let go (God, I'm so blue, know we're through) There's just no one who gets me like you do ('Cause you know I still love you, babe) You are my only, my only one And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay Now that I'm gone

Just Friends 05:17
All of my friends, All, all of my friends Well I work all day with All my friends And we work all of the time From day into the night Then it's time to have fun in the stage lights and... All my friends work with me We all do good for the company We work Monday and Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday too Then the weekend comes It's just me and you All of my friends, All, all of my friends Well I work all day with All my friends And we work all of the time From day into the night Then it's time to have fun in the stage lights and... Tell your friends that you left me If it makes sleeping easy You can tell them I said I was sorry Even if the truth's a little blurry I'm not gonna lie I was the bad guy I'm not gonna lie You can tell me a hundred times I bet you think I changed on purpose Took a picture of who you loved and burned it It'll break your heart for certain When someone you love is a different person All my friends work with me We all do good for the company We work Monday and Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday too Then the weekend comes It's just me and you Friday, Friday Gotta get down on Friday Everybody's looking forward to the weekend

Never ever have I ever felt so low When you gonna take me out of this black hole? Never ever have I ever felt so sad The way I'm feeling yeah, you got me feeling really bad Never ever have I had to find I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind I've never ever had my conscience to fight The way I'm feeling, yeah, I just don't feel right... Going up to the spirit in the sky That's where I'm gonna go when I die When I die and they lay me to rest I'm gonna go to the place that's the best I've never been a sinner I've never sinned But I've got a friend in Jesus So you know that when I die He's gonna set me up with the spirit in the sky Oh my baby, oh my baby Oh why, oh my... Going up to the spirit in the sky That's where I'm gonna go when I die When I die and they lay me to rest I'm gonna go to the place that's the best I've never been a sinner I've never sinned But I've got a friend in Jesus So you know that when I die He's gonna set me up with the spirit in the sky Give me Jesus Give me Jesus Give me Jesus Give me Jesus You can have all of this earth You can have all of this earth You can have all of this earth Give me Jesus

Disconnect 03:45
When there’s nothing to light up the night I only stare in the infinity mirror When I have the weight of the world You know I’ll… I disconnect When there’s something that catches my eye I concentrate on a divinity number When I face the kingdom of one You know I’ll… I disconnect So when you see me Before you talk to me Just let me know if you might object To all the distance And all the own-brand apologies but What did you expect? When there’s nothing to light up the night To pull me out of a death animation When it’s time to shed the veneer You know I’ll… I disconnect

I know just how to whisper I know just how to whisper And I know just how to cry And I know just how to cry... I know just how to fake it I know just how to fake it And I know just how to scheme And I know just how to scheme... And I know just where to touch you And I know just where to touch you And I know just what to prove And I know just what to prove... (To the honey gallows) And I know the night is fading And I know the night is fading And I know the time's gonna fly And I know the time's gonna fly... (To the honey gallows) I shall never grow up Make believe is much too fun Can we go far away to the honey gallows? This place is so lovely It kind of makes me very happy Let's go far away to the honey gallows I can make the others stumble I can make tonight forever Or I can make the final block And I can make it disappear by the dawn... (To the honey gallows) I shall never grow up Make believe is much too fun Can we go far away to the honey gallows? This place is so lovely It kind of makes me very happy Let's go far away to the honey gallows

You must love me You must love me You must love me You must love me... Where do we go from here? This isn't where we intended to be We had it all, you believed in me I believed in you Certainties disappear What do we do for our dream to survive? How do we keep all our passions alive As we used to do? Deep in my heart I'm concealing Things that I'm longing to say Scared to confess what I'm feeling Frightened you'll slip away You must love me Deep in my heart I'm concealing Things that I'm longing to say Scared to confess what I'm feeling Frightened you'll slip away You must love me You must love me You must love me

Rumination 05:38
When it's not easy to forget then It's so hard to disconnect When it's not easy to forget then It's so hard to disconnect... 'Cause every touch reminds you of Just how sweet it could have been And every time he kisses you It leaves behind the bitter taste of saccharine... And every touch reminds you of Just how sweet it could have been And every time he kisses you You get the taste of saccharine When it's not easy to forget then It's so hard to disconnect When it's not easy to forget then It's so hard to disconnect...

Bae Arisen 12:19
Through the day As if on an ocean, ocean, ocean Through the day As if on an ocean, ocean, ocean As if on an ocean 'Cause I've made some real big mistakes But you make the worst one look fine I should've known it was strange You only come out at night I used to think I was smart But you made me look so naive The way you sold me for parts As you sunk your teeth into me, oh Bloodsucker, dream crusher Hey Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful angel Love your imperfections, every angle Tomorrow comes and goes before you know So I just had to let you know And this is why we got to touch (Touch) Sometimes words are not enough (No) Painted in your golden kiss Honey drippin' from your lips I thank God and my lucky stars Darling, don't you know what you are? Yeah, baby, you are Mine Hands on your body, I don't wanna waste no time Feels like forever even if forever's tonight Just lay with me, waste this night away with me, you're Mine Hands on your body, I don't wanna waste no time Feels like forever even if forever's tonight Just lay with me, waste this night away with me, you're... I think I've finally had enough I think I've finally had enough I think I maybe think too much I think I maybe think too much I think this might be it for us I think this might be it for us I think that life's too short for this I think that life's too short for this Want back my ignorance and bliss Want back my ignorance and bliss I think I've had enough of this Blow me one last kiss Hey Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful angel Love your imperfections, every angle Tomorrow comes and goes before you know So I just had to let you know Hate to give the satisfaction asking how you're doing now How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about? Just what I wanted "Look at you, cool guy, you got it." I've made some real big mistakes But you make the worst one look fine I should've known it was strange You only come out at night I used to think I was smart But you made me look so naive The way you sold me for parts As you sunk your teeth into me, oh Bloodsucker, dream crusher Mine Hands on your body, I don't wanna waste no time Feels like forever even if forever's tonight Just lay with me, waste this night away with me, you're... I think I've finally had enough I think I've finally had enough I think I maybe think too much I think I maybe think too much I think this might be it for us Blow me one last kiss All of my friends (There's always something magic) All, all of my friends (There's always something magic) Well I work all day with all my friends (There's always something new) And we work all of the time (There's always something magic) From day into the night (There's always something magic) Then it's time to have fun in the stage lights (There's always something new)... Every touch reminds you of Just how sweet it could have been And every touch reminds you of Just how sweet it could have been... I shall never grow up Make believe is much too fun Can we go far away to the honey gallows? This place is so lovely It kind of makes me very happy Let's go far away to the honey gallows You must love me You must love me You must love me You must love me You must love me
