about

The sound of T.A.C. comes from everywhere and nowhere- they carve a crudely drawn map and embark on a aural road trip through the shallows of blues music; from 70’s inspired satanic blues, chest thumping Neanderthal rock tone to swaggering proto-swing sneer straight from the archives and catalogues of any vintage and retro lover of rock music. "Have Mercy" is the epitome of the heavy dirge like blues rock that can be found on their forthcoming debut album.

lyrics

Have Mercy
By flood or by flame
See the sign of judgement
Come a blow my way

I don’t need no wash
From her river just to take me
Down to the sea

Gonna pray to the Hill
Just to raise that spirit and
The Holy Ghost

But I don’t need no spell
Just to lay me deep in
That mourning hole

I don’t
mind that sun
As it beats on my brain

Have mercy
She got a handful of sugar
And a mouth of gold
Just to wake the dead

You don’t need your troubles
Just to get like mine
So keep the gun by the bed

What you going to do
When the worlds on fire
Y'know it aint no skin

All the ash and the rust
And the stars start falling
Aint no hiding from Him

But I don’t
mind that sun
As it beats on my brain

Turn your lamp light low
Let it shine on me
Let em dig that hole
