Tribes With Knives

A hefty chunk of that art metal stuff. If Tribes with Knives was a style of painting, it would be the nature landscape. While listening to You May Safely Graze, I envision rolling mountains and frozen lakes. I hear songs about existence, swans, and miracles, you know, that man versus himself and man versus society crap you learned from your English Literature class. This album is thinking man’s grunge.
