lyrics
HICIMOS HISTORIA PERO NUNCA NOTICIAS
LA GOTA
ELLSO VIVEN
LOS AMAS
SIN SABER NADA
Exploding heart
Hungry belly
Wakes the night and steal our sleep
Who can tell that without darkness
Nothing ever comes to birth?
Exploding heart
Hungry belly
Wakes the night and steal our sleep
You don’t know what to name it
If/when you look deep in its eyes
It’s not our place to point it out
Or lay on hands
Hold everything dear
Dancing on the spine of the hoochie-coochie war machine
Cobra and the Mongoose spinning in the gyre
I’ve listened again and it’s still there
Ghosts within ghosts
I’ve listened again and it’s still there
Ellos viven
Machines all silent
Machines all hum
I promise to come while the world’s still turning
A palha a palha que arrio ou camelo

You don’t know what to name it
If/when you look deep in its eyes
It’s not our place to point it out
Or lay on hands
Hold everything dear
Dancing on the spine of the hoochie-coochie war machine
Cobra and the Mongoose spinning in the gyre
I’ve listened again and it’s still there
Ghosts within ghosts
I’ve listened again and it’s still there
Ellos viven
Machines all silent
Machines all hum
I promise to come while the world’s still turning
A palha a palha que arrio ou camelo

Plays Hard To Get
by Robocobra QuartetThe superbly woven jazz, hardcore and a-little-uncomfortable lyrics. My tapping foot and swinging hips. The teasing moments of transcendence in my beer stained straight edge haze.

Atonalism
by Atonalist feat. Gavin FridayThis is beautifully produced and played. Gavin Friday has done some of his most relaxed, confident vocal work to date. This is a big dark cinematic record that should be widely heard.
