take me away, i’m a danger to myself.
lock me away, i’m a risk to my own health.
something’s wrong, something’s wrong inside my head.
i hope it’s not too long, cos it’s driving me mad.
give me a room with nice soft spongey walls,
and the same on the floor, so i don’t hurt myself when i fall.
i’m going down, i’m going down, i’m going down,
i’m going insane.
i’m going down, i’m going down, i’m going down,
the doctor said there’s something wrong with my brain.
i’m going insane.
it’s getting too much. my head’s in such pain.
cut off my hands, so i don’t hit myself again.
down, i’m going down, i’m going down,
i’m going insane.
i’m going down, down, the doctor said
there’s something wrong, wrong, inside my head.
i’m going down, down,
the doctor said there’s something wrong with my brain.
i’m going insane.

The brand-new five-track DAVY DOES KENT EP is now up for pre-order!
Pairing catchy
tunes with lyrics that claw at the human underbelly, Mr Wu's Pigs lays raw but melodic vocals over jagged power chords and unrelenting drum patterns. The songs have led to Mr Wu’s Pigs drawing unexpected comparisons to acts such as Buzzcocks, T Rex, Bauhaus and Nirvana....more
I've been watching The Long Knives play great shows for the past seven years or so, and they never disappoint. This album captures them perfectly. Mr Wu's Pigs
Lo-fi indie that recalls the glory days of Shrimper and Shimmy Disc, where rock-solid melodies sit inside rickety instrumentation. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 5, 2022
The terrific new record from Nyxy Nyx recalls the best of the early ’90s—slow-moving, shoegaze-adjacent songs with woozy melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 11, 2022
