    Following three 7"s, Great Apes' debut full length, THREAD, will be released this fall on Asian Man Records. The lyrical and musical material on Thread was inspired by and pieced together from written conversations and interviews with close friends.

Essentially, each song represents a different person.

lyrics

fear your future?

captivity in waste?

oh mortality, I won’t settle in haste

prescribed to a life with a finite ending

they’ll be no after mending…



strife in balance:

risk and safety

in love with time, who else deserves me? 



when the bind it beckons you, spit it jagged / tell it true

when you give until you break, take stride in mistake

but save room for fate / gouge out your space

expand your roll/ control is a fantasy


we’re drops in the rapids, you and me


pin in the middle - horizon in chains

oh duality, I won’t settle in strain

when it’s raw and real some will stray away

panic to progress?

or take comfort in decay?


strife in balance:

weigh the give and take

slivers of movement, defined in bliss and ache



when the bind it beckons you, spit it jagged / tell it true

when you give until you break, take stride in mistake

but save room for fate / gouge out your space

expand your roll/ control is a fantasy

we’re drops in the rapids, you and me

about

Great Apes San Francisco, California

Insert hype-up descriptors here. Plain and simple, San Francisco's Great Apes are a lyrical punk band. Music, much like a bio, is often at its best when it’s spit out intensely and quickly, with concision and honesty.
