After five albums with Canadian progressive rock band Fen, vocalist/guitarist Doug Harrison launched a solo project called Slug Comparison. Blending darkness and light, acoustic and electric, the project has released two full-length albums, featuring members of The Devin Townsend Band, Fen, and Vancouver drum guru Randall Stoll. The latest album, When You Were Living Here, was released in 2019 by Rock Company, a record label from the Netherlands. In collaboration with Swedish filmmaker, Peter Wiholm, Slug Comparison created a video for the song, “Bringer of Doom." Slug Comparison is based in Victoria, Canada.
lyrics
paranoid that it won't be much longer
paranoid that I've come all this way
with hardly a loss and hardly a word against
but who's keeping track that I've been getting it slack
bringer of doom, enter my room, tell me the wait is over
bringer of ends, it only makes sense to cut through this safe enclosure
paranoid that I'm soft in the middle
paranoid that piss'll run down my leg
strangers will watch and loved ones will turn away
but who's keeping track that I've been getting it slack
bringer of doom, enter my room, tell me the wait is over
bringer of ends, it only makes sense to cut through this safe enclosure
and find out what I might withstand
never had a beating, left motionless and bleeding
I've never had a car crash and taken flight
never had a break in where innocence was taken
I've never had a good friend jump through the light
bringer of doom, before you I swoon, carry me limp and senseless
into your den, let no one come to my defence, I'm wholly willing
to find out what I might withstand
to find out what I might withstand
to find out what I might withstand
to find out what I might withstand
