Have a Nice Life - Sea of Worry

Artist: Have a Nice Life
Track: Sea of Worry
Release: Sea of Worry
Album out November 8th 2019

Released by The Flenser and Enemies List Home Recordings

If the soul survives - like I do every summer - and I’m still a fucking bummer? Then, everyone I know is still alive by no choice of mine. I know exactly what I did...I opted out by never really opting in. And never really thought I would survive. Nothing new, under sun and moon. Because this just can’t be right...since the right co-opted nihilism, I’ll decide not to decide. I’m still my father’s son, only ever looking out for number one. Who knew life could be anything, but? Fell every tree in the forest. Put a bullet in every poet. Flatten every mountain, level every hill. You’d best believe...because they fucking will.

[SilhouetteLifter]

Whoa. Cool to see them focusing on the post-punk side of their Post Blackened Industrial Ambient Shoegaze Doom Folk Drone Rock/Metal/Punk sound.

[jtendy]

When Dan said "ooooOOOooooh" I felt that.

[HulksterHogan]

When you wanna go surfing but you're also extremely depressed.

[ghoulish]

For the HANL homies that didn't live to see the release of the third album

[SuperHess]

I can't believe HANL made a goth surfer track...I love it!

[poisonapleproduction]

This has the most badass chorus I’ve ever heard in my life. Perfect

[skullsouljah]

Probably one of my favorite blackened bands

[TortureWorld]

HANL track with actual, physical drums? Truly we have entered a rift in universes.

[mistersimplguy]

Is it really a HANL song if you can distinguish every word on first listen? Really this track is so good

*LYRICS*




[Verse 1]
If the soul survives, like I do every summer and...
I’m still a fucking bummer? Then...
Everyone I know is still alive by...
No choice of mine
I know exactly what I did
I opted out by never really opting-in
And never really thought I would survive
And this just can’t be right...
Since the right co-opted nihilism, I’ll decide not to decide

[Bridge]
I’m still my father’s son, only ever looking out for number one
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Who knew life could be anything but?

[Pre-Chorus]
Fell every tree in the forest
Put a bullet in every poet
Flatten every mountain
Level every hill
You’d best believe it
Cause they fucking will

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Who knew life could be anything but?
And this just can't be right (Fell every tree in the forest)
Put a bullet in every poet
I’ll decide not to decide
Flatten every mountain (And this just can't be right )
Level every hill
I’m still my father’s son, only ever looking out for number one

Fell every tree in the forest
And put a bullet in every poet
Flatten every mountain
Level every hill
You’d best believe it

[Orsan_]

The “OooOOOooo” in this song rivals with the “Whoooo!” on Black Wing's Luther.

Can't believe my bois are finally back.

[hldr]

I hope the ones that have been with us, and are no longer can enjoy this, be it in the afterlife or in the next life.
Godspeed, and always remember: you are not a golem, you can always create, you don't need to destroy your life, search for psychiatric and/or psychological help. I don't know you, but I hope you are okay, and that you can live enough to listen to the album, and any other subsequent releases.

[rafaelaguilar]

I hope the whole album sounds like this so i can cry and jam at the same time

[ronbent]

I love how the drums sound, they add so much. But basically this is a HANL song in the best way: a pop song that makes you want to sit alone in the dark. Maybe HANL are the new Smiths!

[lucastarg]

I literally made one of my first international purchases just to listen to this.

[cecildibiasi]

I’m in a bad storm right now and the powers out, listening to this just completes the mood

[rooftopsignals]

I can't stop listening. So different, yet so much like the band i grew to love,
I can't thank you enough for doing what you do, really.

This feels like something, almost real to me

[sauzeeee]

Too late to explore the world, too early to explore the galaxy, but just in time for a new HANL album.

[shugazi]

Giles Corey really 9 years ago? wtf man time flies. Great to hear you guys still. Hope everyone here in the comments stay strong, well make it.

[bicyclehorsethesixth]
