about

Song meaning:This songs about living in shitty rented accomodation, with an assorted cast of scumbags, all to make a slumlord some profit, which is a thing that happened to me.

Its also a nod to the housing crisis, and probably the most personal song on the album for me.

lyrics

V1
Maybe it was the creeping mould,
That made us lose our minds
And become modern day slum dwellers
And prop up vulture scum
I still remember mothers letter
Oh what had she done?
The creeping claws of industry
And I was on the run

Chorus
High Rent, Low Life
Scum Twist The knife
Drain all my worth
Slumlord from birth

V2
A cast of hideously warped,
Human parodies
A man who chattered to the spirits
A tortured entity
A monster with a box of keepsakes
Sickness hidden deep
All this curated by the slumlord
Malefactor in chief

Repeat chorus

Second Coming of Heavy Chapter One - Geezer/Borracho
by Geezer/Borracho

supported by 10 fans who also own “Slumlord”

Are Geezer the heaviest heavy blues band out there? Probably, but if you’re unsure, just listen to these four songs and decide for yourself. And while your eyelids get heavy from all that smoke, Borracho have the cowbell to lead you home. This is a stoner rock goldmine, folks, so bet in the van whilst you can. We got nine more of these trips to go! Kirk Gauthier
