about
"Emerging from the influential sounds of the 90s industrial and post-punk era, American act Before After Again recently unleashed the killer track The Water That Pulls You Underneath. Melding old-school industrial with EBM and dark wave, this sonic creation could be the rebellious offspring of Nine Inch Nails’ twisted spirit, Front Line Assembly’s aggressive ethos, and Project Pitchfork’s melodious EBM. It masterfully combines raw intensity with melodious elements, embodying a diy, independent spirit, while steering clear of anthemic and radio-friendly commercialism.
The Water That Pulls You Underneath is a testament to Before After Again’s ability to channel the raw energy of its influences into a distinctive and impactful musical expression." - Last Day Deaf

lyrics
Automatic-cratic
With a taste for thrills
Focus on terror
And a pitiful soul
Baby’s got a chance
But the pretty don’t show
Watch yourself run
While the memories unfold
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
Existential truth
And a pain that’s real
Lock your heart in
Let it fall into place
Damage is done
Count your losses and fails
Pretty one loves
All the pain that it brings
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
Ticking time bomb
And its locked onto you
Cover your eyes
Like there’s nothing to do
Losing your mind
As you bask in the toil
Never look back
At the lives you destroyed
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
With a taste for thrills
Focus on terror
And a pitiful soul
Baby’s got a chance
But the pretty don’t show
Watch yourself run
While the memories unfold
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
Existential truth
And a pain that’s real
Lock your heart in
Let it fall into place
Damage is done
Count your losses and fails
Pretty one loves
All the pain that it brings
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
Ticking time bomb
And its locked onto you
Cover your eyes
Like there’s nothing to do
Losing your mind
As you bask in the toil
Never look back
At the lives you destroyed
Hold on don’t breath
You won’t succeed
I am the water
That pulls you underneath
