Haze all along the floodplain Blackened by eternal dust Thick with everyone you ever knew Feel the heat intensify behind you As God eviscerates everyone you ever knew I have turned my face I return my tongue My every hole is yours Slick with sweat and ripe for bliss I have turned my face I return my tongue My every hole is yours Slick with sweat and ripe for filth Don’t forget I’m nothing, Don’t forget I’m nothing but a moment passing Just stretch my cavity, make me yours Make use of my wicked insides Will my energy out suck God’s green earth of its vital power Pour and pour and pour and pour and pour this everlasting constellation

Gather everything I owe you Breathing in the Western wind (Warm just like when you’re inside me) I bike right past your boyfriend’s you need (cast a spell to the asphalt wide) Biking til i’m someone you need (What you need what you need) Every day I need you to tell me one thing Just enough to get my fix Just enough to keep me on the edge. Look in through the empty hallway Debris and rain all through the building I step inside and the floor’s collapsing And see your body grey like oceans Every day I need to tell you something (every day i tell you something) It’s just enough to get my fix (it’s just enough to get my fix) Every day we invent that something (everyday we invent that something) It’s just enough to get my fix It’s just enough to keep you on the edge Always on the edge of something Hungry for the borderline

Cast in the pool from the firmament Filled with silicone again Cast this incantation Til the angel reappear Skeletal and silken black He enters into my naked lack The hole that swallows viscera What soul, what matter is here Further into our naked lack Further into our naked lack Come and disappear into Further into our naked lack Cast in the pool from the firmament Filled with silicone again Cast this incantation Til the angel reappear Further into our naked lack Further into our naked lack Come and disappear into Further into our naked lack

about

Filth is the final chapter in the long and storied collaboration we started in 2007 with a song called Malone that we made over MSN Messenger, before we'd even met in person.

Half our life later, many things are different but in some ways these methods and locations - remoteness, friendship across borders, the internet as a kind of portal - remain true for us on this album as ever.

Named after a long lost 1995 compilation from Travis' childhood collection, Filth reimagines sounds from the cosmology of 90s alternative culture, the music that first captured our imagination as kids.

This album wishes to echo the feeling of awe that these sounds awoke in us, that angst-rich pre-millennium feeling of vacant ecstasy and suburban trouble that swept through 90s youth from the normies to the freaks.

Of course, these sounds - from nu metal to shoegaze to post rock to rave music - come back haunted, mutant and hybridised, because nothing is ever the same again.

We look back in a joy that mixes well with horror - these are songs about staring into an abyss gladly and we relish in sounds that are as lurid as they are dreamlike.

Collarbones advocates for bad taste, now and forever.
