    These four songs make up the first American Nightmare release, a demo of raw Boston hardcore released at the band's first show on Feb. 11, 2000 in Portland, Maine. The release changed hardcore instantly, veering from the traditional positive, community based lyrics of fast hardcore to an inward, personal and depressing perspective.

    Recorded in 1999, the demo was originally self-released on cassette and then issued on 7" by Malfunction Records and has been out of print for the last few years.

    Includes unlimited streaming of 4 Song Demo via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

I won't go
Because I've been there before
And it took twenty years to pick my face up off the floor
I'm not "sorry" if "things" aren't "the same"
But sleepless nights are hardly worth the cheapness of your game
And if you know what I mean then live for yourself
Because life is too short to waste it on somebody else
There was a time, and I swear that I cared...
I got burned
And now I walk with this fist in the air
I don‘t care what they say
They're not the ones who have to live with the pain
Black Heart Breaking, Broken Bonds
I should have known all along
Don't talk to me
I'm as deaf as I am blind
Thanks for making me cheap
And thanks for wasted time
