Prospect Hill – S/T (CD)
“A Patriot’s Anthem” is a great introduction to Prospect Hill, as it allows listeners to see every part of the act work together in the creation of a memorable track. Prospect Hill skillfully moves through emo, rock, and even metal over the course of a few short minutes, all while the extraordinarily charismatic vocals hit on all cylinders. The production, while not as important as the performances of Prospect Hill themselves, is similarly strong. This means that each instrumental element is given a proper spotlight, rather than acting at crosspurposes with the rest of the band.
“Secret Me” is a much more emotive type of track, allowing listeners to experience another side of Prospect Hill. Rather than making a direct ploy to fans of a lighter sound, Prospect Hill craft a unique type of track that is epic in terms of styles broached and overall output. In much the same way as “A Patriot’s Anthem”, “Secret Me” has that extra shot in the arm provided by the strong vocal side of the act. “Superhero” represents yet another hit for Prospect Hill; it is the instrumentation this time, and particularly the guitar shines here, that will draw attention to the act.
Of all of the tracks on this self-titled release, I feel that “Dirty Mother” may be the one that converts the most fans. The track is difficult as it does show a considerably different piece of Prospect Hill than had been previously present, but the band is able to use their skill to bring this rougher-edged track in line with the rest of the album. The bombastic drumming and Tool-like guitars will ensure that listeners will be whipped up into a frenzy well after the disc closes up. “Into The Light” is a track that brings together these disparate elements and represents in microcosm form what exactly the band stands for; it is yet another required listen for those that wish to know more about the band at this point in their career. Make sure to pick up Prospect Hill’s self-titled release when it hits stores on September 25th; you will be blown away.

Hello Everyone!

We just wanted to take a moment to thank each and every single one of you who came out to hang out with us at the Oxford County Fair in Oxford, Maine this weekend. You guys are awesome and always make us look forward to the next time we come back to Maine. To play in front of a crowd as massive as we did Saturday night truly is a humbling experience. We're just a bunch of kids who like to make noise together and you guys dig it. It is such an honor to be able to meet all of you after we get on stage and hear how a particular song makes your feel, think, or how it pertains to your life in one way or another. Hearing stories like that really makes everything we go through on a day in and day out basis all worth while. Also, thank you for providing us with a few firsts. Never before have we signed so many random things. Shirts, hats, sticks are all somewhat common...but skin, shoe laces, other people's pictures, balloons, headbands, pants, shorts, boxers, belts, etc...thats a little more rare. It provides us with great memories and stories to remember and hopefully share with many more people in the future. To everyone we took a picture with, or if we signed something that you took a picture of, please tag us in the photo or send us the photo so we can add it to our page. We all look forward to coming back up to Maine next month and hope to be able to see you all at that show. Make sure you keep checking back to our page for added shows, song clips, and pictures. We definitely need to give out a huge thanks to our boys in Dead Season. It was an honor for you to have us on the bill with you guys. The original blog did not have a thanx and we didnt mean anything by it we of course appreciate it. Thanks a lot guys, glad we have this great relationship growing.

BREAK DOWN

Here's to the nights that we would spend

Lying awake naked in my bed

I can hear you whisper in my ear

Nothing ever felt so real

Into the nights through sands of time

The memories of your every smile

Listen to your heart this time and share with me

Break down, and show yourself to me

Break down, allow yourself to be

Break down, and let it all out

Break down, break down

Here's to the nights that never end

Glass's raised toasting with our friends

Looking back on everything

I can almost taste your lips

All of the nights you spent afraid

So unfair, so unaware

Removed from memories

You break down, and show yourself to me

Break down, allow yourself to be

Break down, and let it all out

Hold back those tears you cry out loud

Remove

Take down those walls you built around yourself

Remove

Cause you know

You hold my world

Within yourself

You know

You find

If you let go

Just reveal yourself to me

Break down the walls

BRIGHTER DAYS

The days grow long as the seasons change

Life passes by while statues remain

Sentenced to a life with no amaze

A dull life after years of age

Open eyed and mesmerized

You look to the sky in search of surprise

You kiss the sky with your eyes as you feel it falling down on you

Allow your mind to swim in an ocean of clouds, an ocean above

So true

Kiss the sky, with your eyes

As deep and dark as a new dug grave

The walls of that hole begin to cave

Surround yourself with familiar ways

Afraid to look for brighter days

Open eyed and mesmerized

You look to the sky to feel alive

You keep on ever searching

Brighter days, for brighter days

From the shadows they will come

If there's only space for one

Brighter days, for brighter days

You kiss the sky

BURIED

Gave it my all, gave it my everything

I have to go without

It was never enough, never enough for you

Then you chose to walk away

Take the time

To understand

It was never mine

If it's in your hands

Giving into temptation of desire

Lost your heart and fire

Leaving the gifts, leaving it all behind

Now it's lost within time

I buried myself on the inside

This is the way I feel

Seconds go by

Minute by minute and hour by hour and you're still gone

Gone

Seconds go by

Minute by minute and hour by hour and you're not mine

Every word remains unspoken

This is the way I feel

I still remain buried

Amongst the likes of me

I still remain buried

Amongst the likes of me

My heart remains now broken

This is the way I feel

DANCE

Dance the night away

Dance the night away

Oh, Dance the night away

Show it to me baby

Lay down for me

Baby lay down for me

Dance

The night away

I see you eyeing me from across the room

My heart is racing now

I feel the music pumping through my veins

So right, tonight

Baby you and me

Dance the night away

C'mon and dance with me

Dance the night away

Dance to a different beat

Dance the night away

Show it to me baby

Lay it down for me

There's bullets dropping with your every move

It's heating up in here

Our eyes are tight

And you're ready to go

So right, tonight

I'm inside of you

Oh, c'mon, c'mon and dance with me

C'mon baby it's you and me

C'mon baby just dance with me

C'mon baby, it's you and me

FACE THE PAIN

Headline reads and now the story today

The dead lay, how unfortunate

Yes they try, they try to get away

Far away from that

Killers face

See and face the pain

That's shown through media

Calling out your name

as if to beckon you

Ever closer now

To the pain

Yes they see that history repeats again

Over and over again

They say

That we'll never ever get away

Never get away

Face the pain

 

Now conceive there's one amongst the crowded room

The quiet one

The lonely one

Lingering out

Change the way you act so we can live on

Listen and learn before it's too late

Too late

It's too late

As we're left here

As we face the pain

Never get away

Face the pain

Too late

It's too late

As we're left here

As we face the pain

FOR THE LOVERS, THE HATERS, AND THE DEAD

Give and take that we are reminded of each day

Do you call it payback when you act this way

That sick feeling inside of you

That you feel

When you're lied to

Nothing's real

You said you'd turn around

You said you turned it around

See I'm always left on the outside

Laid to rest and left with no emotion to betray

Torn from this world and into the next they say

Empty feeling inside of you

That you feel

When you lost the love

Can't be real

You said you'd be around

You'd always be around

Seems that's what should of mattered

Left  forgotten

Pushed away

Emotions torn apart

From what you didn't say

Got my head spinning around and around

My head is spinning, around and around and around and around

Lost in all of this

Confused on the outside

 

INVISIBLE

See you're judged by what you wear

Labels of identity

You might wonder if they care

Or do they see right through me

Take the best and disappear

What they fear themselves is only fear

No they never notice me

And they never chose to see

The person that I am inside is scared

And kept invisible

Set aside those people's gazing eyes

As they pass before me

So they take the best and reappear

For their ignorance is what they fear, yeah

No, never taking the time to care

So naive and unaware

Of what stands there before them now

No, never taking a single chance

Or even taking a second glance

To see who I really am, no

Cause they don't

PANACEA

Look up to the skies and you will see

That we're all just layers of transparencies

Held up to the sun for all to see

What we're looking for is the in between

It's only found by the truth

It's only the measured out by you

It's only the purpose to find

The cure for everything

State of emergency we seek

Single word definition that we won't see

Drop a bit of knowledge

And pass it around

You can't figure it out

Put your hands down

Right or wrong

You can't deny

You're human just like me

We all make the mistakes

But it's

It's only the purpose you find

The cure for everything

It's panacea

REFLECT

Reflect

They seem to hide

All the things that we'll never find

Take time to reflect on the forefront that's at hand

Backs to the wall

Tell me are we destined to fall

To take away the indecisions we have made

You live for the moment

And consume another way

You wait for tomorrow

You will find it out a better way

Maybe then

Stand up and fight

For whatever you think is right

Cause if I'm wrong we must exist along this plane

Can't see it all

Any closer the curtain will fall

So tangled up in the misery that you have made

Just wait to be right

The truth deep within your light

Underneath

Shredded skin

New light shows

Another life will be gained

 Stand forth

And consume another way

You wait for tomorrow

You will find it out much better than

Maybe then

Maybe then

You can reflect

SOE

A delusion of you

An illusion of me

Yes I know what you're thinking

All the times that we tried

Just to keep this alive

This shit just keeps repeating

I see you're trying not to make your amends

I'm feeding off your weaknesses

And this is where it ends

Here we go again (here we go)

You're going back on all you said

Here we go again (here we go)

Another heated argument

A conclusion to you

The solution for me

Is to find a new beginning

All the hate that you see

Is the downfall of me

So this is why I'm leaving

You're heart is beating

But to me you are dead

You pulled in both directions

Just to see which way I bend

Well deep down inside it's kept in a hate filled rage (rage)

Should feel no remorse from the lies and the games that you play (play)

It's gone on too long and now a decision is made (made)

I'll heal now and watch you fade away

THE DIVIDED

The ending of our story is getting closer

And I don't want to turn the page

Take a look within yourself

To see if you feel the same

Step outside the fiction

Before it drives you insane

Divide yourself

The stage is set

A happy ending to the ones that live with no regret

Take a look within yourself

To see if you feel the same

So surprised how much you can relate to a faceless name

Just release and open

You can't feel that weight

So often you live on forever

Long after we have lived and died

Should I tell you all the feelings you will recognize

That hurt, the pain is see in your eyes

And the sacrifice that keeps this burning flame alive

Divide

And sit outside yourself

THE RIDE

Hey there little one

Reaching out your hand

Look to me and you will understand

I can show you the ways

To live your life

That's all

It's up to you

Take the reigns

Here we go

On a star

And it leaves tonight

Hey now

Hold on

I'm taking you for a ride

Hey there lucky one

Be sure to understand

What it takes to become a man

I can show you the ways

To live your life

That's all

It's up to you

Take the reigns here we go

Here we go

On a star

Don't let it go

On a star

Shooting star

How I wonder where you are

Search the stars and in between

Know exactly what you need

And now

Wish on

Your lucky star

WALK HOME

Light the torch beneath your feet

Dance around obsolete

Natures watching over you

Darkened sky, a pale lit moon

Will there ever be an answer

We're left questioning why

Why you had to die so young

Are you happy now, you've won

Will you find your way back home

Will you make it back here, all alone

The difference is between t
