3) Mouth, Hobart, Australia
This artist description concerns the Tasmanian punk band Mouth who formed in 1991 and disbanded in 1995. Consisting of Tim Evans (later of Sea Scouts and Bird Blobs), Cameron Stopps and Paul Evans. Forming in Hobart, Australia, Mouth took the energy and ethics of Fugazi (who themselves claimed to be big fans) and made music of razorwire guitar (no top E-string needed), violent bass and solid drums over which Tim Evans screamed teeth-cutting punk poetics concerning Homophobia, feminism, ageism, social rights and psychological theory, delivering these songs with such rightous energy as to kickstart a minor revolution.
Releasing the rapidly-sold-out cassette-only "Mouth" in 1992 and "jaw-droppingly intense" CD Victim Chant in early 1994 (released on Destroyer Records, and re-released in 2005 on Solar Sonar/Shock Records) which continues to convert listeners in increasing numbers Mouth continued to shock audiences live, where they truly shone. While the songs stand up on CD, there was no escaping the power of Tim Evans, 6-foot-something and with a a red, spiked crown of hair screaming with an unforced intensity about social injustices.
Tim Evans' characteristic DIY-mentality saw a slow start come to a premature end once relocating to Melbourne and turning down label interest. After disbanding, Stopps joined Little Ugly Girls, Tim Evans began Sea Scouts and Paul Evans returned to the birthplace of he and his brother, Railton, Tasmania.

Mouth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My cheeks are hollow as I feel
You're really gonna hate this
I still can dial your number in the dark
But whenever I pull
I'm pushing us further apart
And I take them out and stitch them up
Caught in the open in the rained out parade of you
You're really gonna hate this
I still can dial your number in the dark
But whenever I pull
I'm pushing us further apart
You're really gonna hate this
Pieces of you swimming in my brain
Drenched to the bone
Waiting for you in the rain
And it pours
Life becomes the things you're putting off
If you're not sure what you've turned on
I should just throw this bag away
Caught in the open in the rained out parade of you
Fumbling for cover in the rained out parade of you
You're really gonna hate this
But my fingers know your number in the dark
Whenever I call it
I'm pushing us further apart
You're really gonna hate this
Pieces of you swimming in my brain
Drenched to the bone
Waiting for you in the rain
I'll take back what you took from me
I'll hide where you won't look for me
And I can't see that being too hard
The lyrics of Mouth's song "Parade" explore the emotions and experiences associated with a broken relationship. The first verse suggests a sense of detachment and numbness, as the singer admits to not waking up until their shadow is longer than they are, and feeling hollow. This could symbolize a loss of identity and a lack of emotional fulfillment. Despite this, the singer still holds on to memories of the past, as indicated by their ability to dial their ex-partner's number in the dark, but acknowledges that their efforts only push them further apart.
The second verse reveals the singer's internal struggle. They keep fragments of their ex in a bag in their closet, which they take out and attempt to piece together. This could reflect their longing to hold on to what they once had, even if it is broken. The chorus emphasizes the pain and longing associated with the breakup, as the singer feels like they are caught in a parade of memories, exposed and vulnerable to the rain. It also highlights the singer's desperation to hold on to their former lover, even though it seems futile.
The bridge introduces a sense of reflection and realization. The singer acknowledges that life becomes defined by the things they put off, and questions whether they should let go of the bag of memories and move on. The final chorus expresses a mix of determination and resignation. The singer knows that their actions will push them further apart, but they still hold on to the hope of reconciliation, even if it means enduring the pain of waiting in the rain.
Overall, "Parade" captures the conflicting emotions of longing, pain, and desperation following the end of a relationship. The singer struggles to let go of the past and attempts to salvage what remains, even though they know it may only cause further separation.
Line by Line Meaning
I never wake up 'til my shadow's longer than I am anymore
I don't start my day until I feel overshadowed and overwhelmed by the problems and challenges in my life
My cheeks are hollow as I feel
I am emotionally drained and empty, reflecting my inner turmoil
You're really gonna hate this
You will dislike what I am about to say or do
I still can dial your number in the dark
I haven't forgotten your contact information, even when things are obscure or challenging
But whenever I pull, I'm pushing us further apart
Every time I try to bring us closer, my actions unintentionally create distance between us
I keep my fragments of you in a closet bottom bag
I store my memories and reminders of you in a hidden and tucked away place
And I take them out and stitch them up
I revisit and mend the broken pieces of our relationship in an attempt to make sense of it all
Caught in the open in the rained out parade of you
I find myself exposed and vulnerable in the midst of the emotional chaos caused by our relationship
Pieces of you swimming in my brain
Thoughts and memories of you constantly occupy my mind
Drenched to the bone, waiting for you in the rain
I am emotionally soaked and thoroughly affected, eagerly anticipating your presence or attention
And it pours
The intensity of my emotions and longing is overwhelming
Life becomes the things you're putting off
Procrastination defines and controls one's existence, delaying growth and progress
If you're not sure what you've turned on
When you are uncertain about the consequences of your own actions
I should just throw this bag away
I should let go and discard the baggage and emotional weight of our relationship
Fumbling for cover in the rained out parade of you
I desperately search for protection and refuge in the chaos and turmoil caused by our relationship
But my fingers know your number in the dark
Even in difficult times or when things are unclear, my subconscious remembers your contact details
Whenever I call it, I'm pushing us further apart
Each time I reach out or try to communicate, it unintentionally creates more distance between us
I'll take back what you took from me
I will reclaim what you have stolen or deprived me of
I'll hide where you won't look for me
I will go into hiding and keep myself away from your search and reach
And I can't see that being too hard
I don't consider it difficult to disappear and remain out of your sight
