The Shrike 04:10
lyrics
buy track
I need this to stop - you can't keep coming back. This cyclical nightmare, an altered state under attack. An unwelcomed distraction, I was spent so long ago. You are not welcome in this space any more. There is no escape from our mistakes as you won't admit one ever took place. The Shrike. I do not want to feel this way. Sometimes you are left behind, sometimes there is no way out. This designed collapse of civil dignity: is this not progress? This is where you'd have us be? Crushing in its loss. I don't care. This isn't for me.

Painless 02:31
lyrics
buy track
This time I'll plead, I'm desperate. Help this cannot continue this way. I will not help pull you from this misery. This is not a guilt trip I'm just losing my grip. You are on your own. All senses, a ghost - forgotten pieces, with a forced lapse. Unwelcome reflection, every time that I go back to this lost space where that scared boy once hoped to be someone stronger. An apprehension unprovoked. You are all alone. Most wish that you were never here.

I Cannot 03:49
lyrics
buy track
So painfully stubborn: zero re-adjustment, no refocus. Just negligent entitlement. Squawking crows on sun baked rocks, watching, one by one, as our future is stolen from us. Under claw, torn asunder by the fading shore. Under claw, torn asunder, there must be so much more. One last request, choking on faltered breath. It's so fucking hot. A not so gentle reduction of thought. This longing for enlightenment and proof of concept. It's never been more apparent that we've gotten this all wrong. I don't think there is valour in making it to the other side with so many that you despise.

about

KEN mode's 9th LP on 12" vinyl, CD, cassette and digital download.

VOID, the companion piece to last year's NULL LP, has a decidedly more melancholy and disappointed aesthetic than its predecessor. Featuring 8 new tracks recorded and produced throughout the fall and winter of 2021 by Andrew Schneider, mastered by Carl Saff, with artwork and layouts by the band's longtime collaborator Randy Ortiz.
Released Sept 22, 2023. Shane Mehling of Decibel Magazine describes it as "It's like the first record is you fighting, and this one is you losing".
