lyrics

We started way below the ground
In a place that had a very small sound

We all felt, we felt the need
To press play on the movie that would be

In a basement far underneath the earth
where the echoes oh the echoes hurt

Two by two in a dirty, dirty room
Where the good and bad of people really loom

Guns were drawn as it would seem - There ain’t trust in technology
A made up lye- when shit hits the fan
No, he’s everybody's friend - he’s their man
Long way home and holding hands
The earth spinning round into quicksand

Three by three dreaming in a magazine
Six by six had to pick up the next fix

We knew right there that it would work
As he smoked a cigarette with a smirk

Space trip, a white suit, turned me on
In this rocket ship blast off just before the dawn

If we can out run than their god
We’ll be off the ground and leave the book without further cause

Uh uh uh - Impossible speed
Uh uh uh - The only ones who can breath
Uh uh uh - I just can’t bare
Uh uh uh - Fog clears and the truth is well aware

It’s all atmospheric fuzz that you see
Close the door and let the emotion really bleed
Million miles a minute baby - We stole the car
Fast on the scene in a minute - Like a shiny star

We started way below the ground - In a place that had a very small sound

Modern Sons

Rooted in garage rock the four piece brings a ubiquitously sonic ambience with crunchy guitars and sophisticated bass lines. Organic structures are not based in a particular style of music, but rooted in the expression of experience and the song itself. They effectively and skillfully uses textural changes of dynamic to step into another sub genre of rock they coin as Psychedelic Post-Punk. ... more
