Blundertown 02:54
Don't think with your heart Think with your rage Bang bang / You're gone Out of sight / Out of mind The clouds are lined with silver again Sorry, I can't sell you a genuine smile They don't come cheap And I can't take back stained precedence Without a receipt We're all fucked / I & I We're all fucked That's just the way it goes Here in blundertown Flash a faux smile for it covers your frown What's a pretty feller like yourself Doing in this nasty place? The same as everyone else I'm disappearing without a trace

Hyaenas 03:02
Kinda not like / Disappoints in a way Furnace eats the coal / Flame licks the decay A fire rises inside / Expressions fade away Deafening laughter hollows and what lingers, lingers It lingers... It lingers... It lingers... It's lingering... To get direct to the point A dance, a step, and a slide Over the shards of glass A murdered child inside You suffocate the beast Keep it caged within Hyaenas feast on the prey Silence makes for a cold companion It lingers... It lingers... It lingers... It's lingering... Why is it that every time that I die You laugh

Ubiquitous 02:39
A flame is lost / The fire is out The wind, it blew it away / It's gone The candle wax drips off the dish The wind it swishes and sways It cuts / It gives no comfort but leaves no doubt The flame is lost / The fire is out A flame is lost / The fire is out The win, it blew it away / It's gone The candle wax drips off the dish The wind it swishes and sways Bitter incandescence left A contract with your name listed A chill that kisses you while you sleep The hand that caresses you while you weep A cold that tingles down your spine A bite that tears you down the line The wind, it strikes with no regard The incandescence once there is gone It cuts / It gives no comfort But leaves no doubt The flame is gone / The fire is out You're everywhere... You're everywhere...

Jaws 03:31
Fin slices along the surface & Yes I've got sharp teeth I've caught onto your scent & It's enraptured me & it's feeding time Yes your spine is mine It's feeding time Yes, i've learned how to swim In this pool you've filled Now you splish and bleed And I'm swimming in for the kill

released November 5, 2021

Moonlight Squalor were a folk noir 3-piece from Southern CA. Active from 2007-2008, the riffs between guitarists Alphonso Jimenez and Francisco Torres were dark, heavy, and possessed a delicate unease, providing the perfect backdrop for the menacing & impassioned vocals of chanteuse Josie Wreck, whose lyrics explored themes of identity, dissociation, desperation and mortality. The trio self-produced one album before disappearing into the shadows. They played a 13 year reunion show in May 2021. It is with great displeasure to present to you their long lost Imperfections.
