Every Last Stitch

by The Mizzerables

supported by
Thomas Anderson
Thomas Anderson thumbnail
Thomas Anderson Short album with most songs in the 2 to 2 1/2 minute range...but what a wallop the 11 tracks deliver. Think of a lighter Rancid infused with some of The Clash sensibilities. Punchy and deep bass lines parade along with some sharp guitar work. Throw in some gang vocal choruses and you have a fun 25 minute rock/punk ride. Check out the tracks Fourteen, Pick it Back up and Every Last Stitch to get the flavor of The Mizzerables. Favorite track: Fourteen.

i've been bruised and battered more than a few times but i can't say i didn't commit no crimes after so long filled with anger and hate ??? she came along, brought me back from hell well it wasn't easy, i put up a good fight nobody could tell me that i wasn't right i burned all the bridges, and torched the town buried myself and wrapped my heart in a shell there were times i thought, i'd never come back headed west wolverine, my bags were packed drinking my pay, and wasting my days like Ness said, I had some evil ways spending nights, amongst the tired and lonely there's a side of me for your eyes only somewhere across town, where the children play they say we're down for the count, it's the end of our days pick it back up now slow and steady she's been here all along standing ready? and death may come, and memories fade but life goes on so pick it back up now sometimes at night, i drive for hours amongst the fallen homes and shining towers the smell of petrol, and the stains of industry reminiscent signs of recent captivity and through it all, the blood sweat and tears and the ones who dare stand against brotherhood she'll always be here till the very last breath reminding us all of what once was good pick it back up now slow and steady she's been here all along standing ready and death may come, for one and all but life goes on so pick it back up now

I’ve been played for a fool before Too many times all by my own self Wasting days along the river shore “You’ve got it all figured out, whiskey for your health” Take me, undo me, down to every last stitch Break me, dissect me, slowly brick by brick I’ve been running out, all these years now I’m tired of walking alone Spending nights along the avenue Thinking I’m the one who’s throwing caution to the wind Alibi’s you know I’ve got a few Easier in blackouts, I blame it on the bathtub gin free me, undo me, down to every last stitch Break me, dissect me, slowly brick by brick I’ve been running out, all these years now I’m tired of walking alone fill these lungs and raise these bones don’t count me down or out i’m tired of walking alone free me, undo me, down to every last stitch Break me, dissect me, slowly brick by brick I’ve been running out, all these years now I’m tired of walking alone

she's a little unstable to say the least a rabid beast cut loose from the leash but she'll love your tied up in chains left for dead in rain you played a game outside your domain another victim of the fatal valentine nowhere to run. you came here all alone. the stench of your own dung. you know you’re on your own. the howls and screams and pains from her bite tear through the night like angels in flight cut right through you tied up in chains left for dead in rain you played a game outside your domain another victim of the fatal valentine tied up in chains left for dead in rain she's like a drug injected straight in your vein another victim of the fatal valentine

Rise With Me 03:20
calling all the disenchanted i'm here to tell you i'm not ok calling all forgotten children stand up declare yourselves and say rise with me rise with me rise with me i am a battering ram here to take away your sympathy for narrow-minded masterminds and charge up a mutiny rise with me rise with me rise with me
11.
if you shined a light on me you could see all the shadows that hide behind as the days fade to night they incite after all that's their frame of mind let me invite take you out to sea where i'm free far from shore and sanctuary shake and wake your base instincts so distinct don't mistake the vows i break the scarlet letters that i forsake for anymore than my own war fought within as i awake come along with me and soon we’ll be off swimming with the fish in lake erie

about

Every Last Stitch, the debut album from The Mizzerables', is an 11 song artillery shot, whistling by your ear and blowing you off of your feet. Part therapy session, part declaration of independence, The Mizzerables tell you all what it's like to love, long and learn life's lessons the hard way.

From the single, "Bottoms Up" to more aggressive tracks like "Everything I Need," "Rise With Me," and "Every Last Stitch" through the infectious hooks on tracks "Fourteen," "Beauty Queen," "Fatal Valentine" and "Scarlett Letters," Every Last Stitch gives you everything punk and rock fans could ever want.

The single, "Bottoms Up," will be released July 9th on iTunes, Amazon, and at the band's bandcamp page, and the accompanying video will be out on BlankTV (dategoeshere). The full album will be available on iTunes, Amazon, and at the band's bandcamp page on July 23rd. CD & Vinyl release dates will be forthcoming.

The Mizzerables will be premiering the video at the Whoapacolypse show July 13 at the Token Lounge in Westland, MI. The digital album release show will be on Thursday, July 25th at Liars Club in Chicago, IL.

The bulk of the album was engineered and mixed by Adam Instefjord, who has also worked with Lights Alive... (etc waiting for list) at the band's Chicago studio. The final track, "Scarlet Letters," was engineered and mixed by Jeff Dean at Million Yen Studios. Jeff has worked on albums from The Bomb, Dead Ending, Samiam, and more. The album was mastered by Doug McBride at Gravity Studios, where he has worked with acts such as Veruca Salt and Smashing Pumpkins.

Music like this, by artists like these, is the glue of the world. It's what holds it all together. Without this, life would be meaningless. These are the kinds of tunes that will make you want to run up on the roof and sing them at the top of your lungs for everyone to hear. So check them out, you won't be sorry.
