SECOND 2 TOUCH From the static of the video screen emerged the symbols The symbols flashed before my eyes like morse code You can't undo the same mess you sold All you hear are the stomping of boots, a light flashes and you're gone Felt so good it was almost a crime Why am I second to touch, second to touch? I swear that it will be alright this time Why am I second to touch, second to touch? From the crowded street corner emerges the sound It grew forever in tone, deafening to all that heard In this modern era, we've forgot how to use words All you hear are the stomping of boots, a light flashes and you're gone Felt so good it was almost a crime Why am I second to touch, second to touch? I swear that it will be alright this time Why am I second to touch, second to touch?

BACK INTO THE LIGHT FROM WHICH YOU CAME Madeline, what if I'm right? What if I'm right this time? I've given you just one chance to change your mind What if I'm right? You go back into the light from which you came You go back into the light from which you came Madeline, what if I'm right? What if I'm right this time? I've given you just one chance to change your mind What if I'm right? You go back into the light from which you came You go back into the light from which you came

Blood Beach 01:43
BLOOD BEACH You want to be a man? A real man never turns his back on the sunset Don't you walk away I'm not quite finished yet What's that you said? I'm too fucked up to remember anyway Stop crying I'm too fucked up to remember anyway You want to be a man? A real man's always got a pistol in his hand One thing I'm never gonna be is another martyr on the street Hands to the sky, only god can finish me What's that you said? I'm too fucked up to remember anyway Stop crying I'm too fucked up to remember anyway

Cut & Shoot 02:47
CUT & SHOOT Hey, I've got this feeling Running over me in slow motion I'm on the cross I want to get get get off, get off It's all this pain streaming into me Tendrils creeping from every direction It takes away, the void cannot be filled Pushing further from real Sometimes I feel lost Like the wind through the pines Sometimes I feel lost Like the wind through the pines Sometimes Hey, it works it's way out Reverberating through my every appendage I feel so lost I want to get get get gone, get gone It's just a wave pouring over us all Sweeping away the fragments of dreaming The time has come, you can only swim when you're young Or else you sink into the mud Sometimes I feel lost Like the wind through the pines Sometimes I feel lost Like the wind through the pines Sometimes

Portals 03:44
PORTALS As I stood over the harbor I saw an object glistening in the water And I fished it out with my sleeve It was the very last thing I remember doing Next thing I knew, you were standing naked on the stairs And you were bang bang banging on my door What do you want, what do you want? The sound in my head, it feels like too much You were bang bang banging on my door What do you want, what do you want? As I stood over the harbor I saw an object glistening in the water And I fished it out with my sleeve It was the very last thing I remember doing Next thing I knew, you were standing naked on the stairs And you were bang bang banging on my door What do you want, what do you want? The sound in my head, it feels like too much You were bang bang banging on my door What do you want, what do you want?

about

DEATH INSTINCT is a musical statement woven with noise fury, misery and delusion. It was recorded in fits and starts between 2016-2019 by Nate Kuszaj at his studio, Exclusion Zone; first in Philly, then in NYC. A colorful torrent of personal issues hamstrung its release for quite a while, including last-minute moves, homelessness, hard drive failure, a wonky reel-to-reel, court appearances and general incompetence. It is finally here at last for you to listen, and being given away FOR FREE for the love of the culture. Enjoy the heavily distorted sounds of our suffering. XX

about

Twin Symptoms Brooklyn, New York

Founded in Philadelphia in 2012 by Nate Kuszaj and Shane Stowers, Twin Symptoms sounds like grey skies, neon reflections, gasoline halos on black concrete, and living inside of the urban maze. TS provides an accurate soundtrack for our uncertain times. Bits of 70s punk, 80s post-punk, and 90s indie rock are thrown into the sonic blender and congeal into a strange new form.
