diehardCFC Can’t wait for this to be released. The one track that’s on there so far is fucking awesome and I’m sure the rest will be. 2 Minute Minor seriously kick arse and their past material has been consistently good. Can’t wait for the new material. Buy it, you won’t be disappointed!! Favorite track: Snake That Ate Its Own Tail.

Life is unpredictable you got to roll w the punches, It can hit you pretty hard! Keep Your Guard! Don’t believe in the Lie that you’re to far gone. Keep your head up and stay strong. We’re not Criminals We’re not tattooed animals We did not start this fight We just wanna make it right *Don’t believe in the Lie that you’re to far gone. Keep your head up and stay strong. UNITE! Fence Walkers not welcome here. The Fence Walking Dead! Just because you don’t fancy politics does not make you a Fence Walker. Human Rights for All! Politics in the trash Can Life is unpredictable you got to roll w the punches, It can hit you pretty hard! Keep your guard! KEEP-YOUR-GUARD!

You can build an empire Still not in control Tear down a kingdom You’re not running the show I’ve lived in the shadows for far too long It’s my time now to sing this song They say this is not the time Nor the place God’s last name isn’t damn If anything it’s Grace *I can’t play God I’m exhausted I’m tired weak and broken down My hands are stained metaphorically with blood SO MUCH BLOOD! Stand your ground For what you believe to be true This is your story to write It’s really up to you *I can’t play God I’m exhausted I’m tired weak and broken down

Such a shame! *We’re to Blame Bottom Feeder Palm reader Widows Cry Widowers Die Beg for your life It’s a Plague! Why so Vague? I’m drawn to you like a Moth to a Grave. I’m chasing after you like you chased me.... Empty thoughts and such a heavy heavy heart See inside a crows eye! *We’re to Blame Bottom Feeder Palm reader Widows Cry Widowers Die Beg for your life It’s a Plague! Why so Vague?

Solve the problems of community within the community. I won’t let a gang in uniform intimidate me *Don’t call the ...the law dogs ...the heat ...the bronze ....the pigs.... Or the bobbies CPD stay away from me!! Their help & protection comes with a fee. Johnny Law seems to be on a shooting spree lately *Don’t call the ...the law dogs ...the heat ...the bronze ....the pigs.... Or the bobbies To serve and protect is for the 1%. If you have the money they are for rent. The Fuzz are coming after you what in the fiery hell are you gonna do? *Don’t call the ...the law dogs ...the heat ...the bronze ....the pigs.... Or the bobbies The boys in blue have no intention of helping you Corruption runs deep in the streets patrolled by the Police CPD stay away from me The pigs & the Bobbies

In come the Rich, Push out the poor, hipster invasion what an eyesore Fancy coffee shops on every street Is it finally time to retreat? Forgo a park to build a high-rise No more room on the ground... ... so build up to the sky *Gentrified Ghetto Give us back our streets Gentrified Ghetto We won’t except defeat Gentrified Ghetto working class stand tall Gentrified Ghetto We will rise above it all Ma & Pop shops are closing their stores Evil corporations are moving next door Made in America is a thing of the past Open up a sweat shop that sells that trash Pay workers a unlivable wage part of the plan to keep us all slaves... *Gentrified Ghetto Give us back our streets Gentrified Ghetto We won’t except defeat Gentrified Ghetto working class stand tall Gentrified Ghetto We will rise above it all Tax the working class until we break our backs We will never retire Are the facts Gentrified Ghetto It must be diverse Gentrification is a deadly curse

Life comes around In full circle Hard Lessons learned we’ll never forget. Fight the good fight forever strong This world is not our home we don’t belong *Snake that ate its own tail That’s still digesting a rat. Snake that ate its own tail Does it end just like that? Snake that ate it’s own tail It’s the circle of life Snake that ate its own tail Had to pay the price Will we continue to repeat our past? can the human race really last? destruction forever follows man. infinite cycle of Gods great plan. *Snake that ate its own tail That’s still digesting a rat. Snake that ate its own tail Does it end just like that? Snake that ate its own tail It’s the circle of life Snake that ate its own tail Had to pay the price Life comes around In full circle It’s chapters it’s not certain It’s a blink of an eye We must say our earthly goodbyes From birth until the time that we die

about

This album is dedicated to Omar “Bulldog” Higgins Of Negro Terror.
Omar was a huge part of the Hardcore scene, his loss will be felt greatly. God bless you brother and Rest In Power.

Welcome to 2Minute Minor’s 3rd release. This EP is interesting because in a way you almost have to think of it as 2 separate EP’s. We went through a revamp of the band during the writing and recording of this EP.
Songs 1-5 were recorded with the old lineup in July of 2018 and Songs 6-11 were recorded in March of 2019 with the new lineup having Wiley Willis on Vocals and Bob Shields on Guitar being the consistency throughout this whole EP. We decided to name the Album “Snake That Ate Its Own Tail” because it’s a symbol of the eternal unity of all things, the cycle of birth and death-The Infinite circle that continues, a Rebirth if you will. We feel that 2Minute Minor has been reborn and find this album title quite ironic; appropriate and suitable for our reincarnation of this circle of 2Minute Minor.
Enjoy.
Stay Positive.
Unity .
