Oh man, I don't even know where to start this one. The Browning has a new song out called "Disconnect" and the lyric are just… so bad. I know we're pretty well-known to get on Emmure's Frankie Palmeri's case about his lyrics, and basically everything the dude does, but his rapping section on this track is far and away the best part. It sort of sounds like Watsky, and while the lyrics aren't great, it looks like scholarly writing compared to The Browning's lyrics. Some excerpts of genius within include…
Look up.
Look me in the eyes, you sheep.
Why are you so blind?
Or The Browning's distaste for your fucking friend requests.
I don't want your fucking friend request.
I'd rather put this knife into your neck,
You fucking bitch.
Poetry. Absolute poetry. I'm not saying that this is horrible and other band's lyrics are clearly superior, but this is just a song packed with nonsensical lyrical tropes and, for some reason, threats of violence against people who are annoying on social media (I think).
In all fairness, if you do dig the track, you can pre-order The Browning's upcoming album Isolation before it comes out on June 24.
