Feels like I've been taken by the night
The air's getting heavy and low
With the door shut tight and the moon shining bright
Something is rattling my bones
Down here alone
When the fever came on
Madness is starting to show
A curse so thick by the whisper on your lips
Something is troubling my soul
Mmm, mm, mm I'm getting crazy
Mmm, mm, mm there's something creeping on me now
Mmm, mm, mm I don't know how to get away
Mmm, mm, mm, oh can you hear me howl?
Far gone now
Deep in the night
This torture is making me moan
Don't feel like I can put up a fight
Voodoo is swallowing me whole
Mmm, mm, mm I'm getting crazy
Mmm, mm, mm there's something creeping on me now
Mmm, mm, mm I don't know how to get away
Mmm, mm, mm, oh can you hear me howl?
I'm really losing control (losing control)
Your curse has really got me in its hold (shakin' in the hold)
I'm howlin' low
Yeah, I'm really shakin' in this hold (shakin' in the hold)
Your curse has put a fire in my soul
Yeah, there's a fire in my soul
I'm howlin' low
I'm getting crazy
Mmm, mm, mm there's something creeping on me now
Mmm, mm, mm I don't know how to get away
Mmm, mm, mm, oh can you hear me howl?
Mmm, mm, mm I'm getting crazy
Mmm, mm, mm there's something creeping on me now
Mmm, mm, mm I don't know how to get away
Mmm, mm, mm, oh can you hear me howl?
Oh, can you hear me howl?
Can you hear me howl?
Can you hear me howl?
Mmm, mm, mmm
I'm dancing with the devil now

Mastered by Adam Dempsey.
Combining the raw edge of punk with the driving force of rock, South shouts unapologetically over chaotic guitar riffs and
charging rhythms to themes of capitalism, feminism, privilege, and the power of community. With influences ranging from Grinderman and IDLES to Sharon Van Etten, the band go from from urgent hooks to unyielding power....more
Thank you very much. I hadn’t heard of you until Henry Wagons played your version of Dancing in the Dark. I can finally understand the lyrics now I’m hearing it in Aussie lingo. I love your take on it too.
Keep making music! petrosinoz
