SitCalm wants for nothing except to petition its listeners to hold on to the moment for as long as humanly possible; to take off that coat of disassociation and toast to life with the walking wounded. Crafted in the vein of the existentialist credo (eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you die), this audible silver lining seeks to have its audience stay in the ever present moment in perpetuity for it realizes felicity and conviviality are fleeting and momentary at best. Defying conventional wisdom,
the euphonic melody somehow finds harmonious accordance with the anxious under current which exhorts us to live in the existential now in an almost desperate manner. Ultimately, it is meant as an intermission and respite from painful introspection and arduous exploration of self crafted catastrophes that both life and the rest of the album provides; it’s escapism escaping from itself.
lyrics
Tabinstereo/JadeGritty:
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)
We seek to keep ya minds open
Life To quick to quit and die hoping
Find the piece ya need that's been broken
Just Raise up your drinks cause we toasting
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)
Tabinstereo:
I'm hittin my peak in a speak easy
I am ken Kesey
Un cooked sashimi
It's that easy
Sip my tea with Mussolini
Reach the kundalini
Now you hanging with genie
Robbin the ingredients
Disobedient
Hopped off the median
Comedian
Chameleon
One in a million
Is there really an infinity to begin
I need a definitive
I need to get into it
We need to get internet
Coors lite and cigarettes
N Meanwhile
I'm feeling the bitterness
Taboo:
Ya willingness is limited and so is your understanding of the infinite
This is the last chance to hit eject... final countdown we only have minutes left all of the systems check Morpheus in the flesh ironically enough I am the plug for your disconnect
Cacophonic and clamorous accurate with every dart heavy hearts for the amorous ... Hatfield's and McCoy's Montague and Capulet's ... that fear is just poison to our common view and narrative
Tabinstereo:
Back when I was in my optimist prime
pessimist time
God bless em it's fine
I Tune the guitar into the morning star
Feel I'm going too far into the cornered off
Underdog
Under god
Over easy
Uninvolved
Just remember
That it doesn't mean shit it all
-don't count the minutes off
Taboo:
never find me with an empty jar lines full of conviction they penitentiary bars I'm deadly they won't let me spar every scar is in the shape of a sensi stat that's the type of friends we are
On a different note gotta fix it if it's broke Misanthrope on a mission to find that missing hope
Don't matter if u sink or float there's sharks in this ocean of dreamers so we're gonna need a bigger boat
Tabinstereo/JadeGritty:
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)
We seek to keep ya minds open
Life To quick to quit and die hoping
Find the piece ya need that's been broken
Just Raise up your drinks cause we toasting
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)
Taboo:
Try to tell me that wer're not amazing
looking we just stepped out of a Dali painting
the pot i'm blazin got everybody in the lobby fainting
as my mind's escaping like a rocket through the constellations
a belief in time is optional...
but losing your mind is probable
I am quite phenomenal
so exciting everything in your mitochondrial is a minor obstacle
Tabinstereo:
Underwater for the overhead
To Push away is holding
-All the weight i put my shoulders on
Achcaic arcade
Watch me get my quarter on
-Cortisone
Itching for
Intermittent moral zone
Take a portal to the corner stone
Corner store
Caught applause
For the overture
-This is what I got a motive for
Down to the last bud
Passed up
Flash flood
no insurance
Taboo:
...it all turns to despair quickly... Working past the circumstances cause they're shitty damn, I know my plan is looking mad iffy Listen homie Like Mowgli gotta bear with me
But they can't just let it live shooting off at the mouth and you know it's unregistered the love's evident but Taboo got that stand alone complex and that's his one negative
Tabinstereo:
Uncredited
Made it what you never did
Still searching what never is
-Inbalanced
Old hat
New talent
Speak Behind boards
Like I'm next door to Tim Allen
-Written rants
Chillin with the sycophants
Small plans
Bigger man
That was when I gave a damn
Beta wave
Never weighed a gram
Getting paid
Its the new demand
Reinvent the plan like
Tabinstereo/JadeGritty:
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)
We seek to keep ya minds open
Life To quick to quit and die hoping
Find the piece ya need that's been broken
Just Raise up your drinks cause we toasting
I don't think we've got it all
But I don't need a thing at all
Just this day And I'm in awe
So hit replay
And stay awhile (you can)

Need to Believe motivates me so much. Ill put it on for workouts or just when I need the motivation to do things. Its a deep track and the album as a whole is just a masterpiece. davidloomis

Christ this shit is so good. can't really identify with his take on gays running the media or the Jesuit stuff, but all that is irrelevant, because he made a reference to Dune, Talking Heads, and a bunch of other cool stuff. The flow is very fluid which pairs well with the beat. compared to mainstream artists, his lyricism is especially clever. I'm going to look out for a T-shirt with the Vrilmatic album art on it because it looks fucking awesome. Worm

This album proves that you are a TOP TIER writer. Every song is so well written and speaks from your heart. It is an album i play and just read the lyrics along with it and get lost in my thoughts. Thanks for sharing such a personal album . Also I don’t know if anyone you see these messages but if there’s any shirts with this album art or any other albums i’d be interested in purchasing davidloomis
