LYRICS | SLOWLY DOWN TOWN On a watching of trains - you’re steaming around Getting out of control and the night is young Got a feeling of bass - you strong the power And then you roam - you ravel tears If you’re going down, if you’re coming round If you run behind, even when you run If you’re out of line, if you look, you’ll find Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town Nothing fun is a waste – you’re pressing it down And you’re speeding ahead to the heart of town Got a Lobo to burst – you strong the power And on your own, you ravel fears If you’re going down, if you’re coming round If you run behind, even when you run If you hold the line, if you look - you’ll find Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town And like in a film, when you don’t want it to end Just look for yourself, just look for yourself Just look for yourself, just look for yourself If you’re going down, if you’re coming round If you run behind, even when you run If you hold the line, if you look - you’ll find Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town Slowly Down Town

LYRICS | LiGHT OF THE LiFE Drifting from the time you know your rage inside had started growing Dripping of sweat which glides as a signaling alarm, alarm, alarm Dreaming of an angel fighting when the trouble is clear as night is falling When a brick is a bill on your back and the ladder evolves and on you go It’s a lifting back, you know, from the main road to your own It’s a lifting back, you know, to the place where Abraham sworn It’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life, It’s a light that no one can pre confine Well, it’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life It’s the light that no one sees when it's bright No one knows if they're right, well, it’s the light of the life Drifting on, you know, is something that you neatly can before you’re trying When the horse, that you ride on its’ back, is directing along, along, along Dreaming hazed to a halting point, when the lights at the back reflect the laughs in the front And the muses are loud, and the volume is strong, strong, strong It’s a lifting back, from the place, that you thought you want to know It’s a lifting back, to the place, that may lead to what you want It’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life, It’s a light that no one can pre confine Well, it’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life It’s the light that no one sees when its bright No one knows if they're right, well, it’s the light of the life It’s a lifting back, you know, from the main road to your own It’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life, It’s a light that no one can pre confine Well, it’s the light of the life, it’s the light of the life It’s the light that no one sees when its bright No one knows if they're right, well, it’s the light of the life

LYRICS | NATURAL SWEAT Sitting like a blind man, watching all the things I could have seen Running like a dumb man, screaming all the things I should have said But if I was deaf, I could not even laugh and ask now How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? And though I’m normal, you say I’m acting very strange And you don’t think I am normal at all, No you don’t think I’m normal at all – very strange Sitting like a blind man, watching all the things I could have seen Running like a dumb man, screaming all the things I should have said But if I was deaf, I wouldn’t have to pretend that I didn’t Hear what you said, hear what you said, Hear what you said, hear what you said, And though I’m normal, you say I’m acting very strange And you don’t think I am normal at all, No you don’t think I’m normal at all – very strange And like any other girl you re-tell me about your Charming prince, the knight on the white horse The man you’ve been waiting for all your life Which is much taller, stronger, smarter and blond and blond Sitting like a blind man, watching all the things I could have seen Running like a dumb man, screaming all the things I should have said But if I was deaf, I could not even laugh and ask now, How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? and ask now, how does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? and ask now, how does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? and ask now, how does it feel?

And all through the years I dreamt of the day That you’d return to my arms And all through the years I imagined your lips, kissing my tears We will meet again some sunny day

What I’m going to tell that little girl about this world that I think is crazy How I’m going to tell that little girl about this world that I think is nasty The sky around is having trouble to feeling secure again On sunny islands we get blinded, danger’s now sensed by pain What I’m going to tell that little girl about this world that I think is crazy How I’m going to tell that little girl about this world that I think is nasty Acceptance, love and equal freedom – what’s so bad about this way? Step aside you evil monsters and let your children play What I’m going to tell that little girl about this world that I think is crazy?

LYRICS | HOT iN A DOGGY DAY Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Rust in a race, need to rest my soul Finding a plate and a place to go No one’s deceiving me, that sets belief in me Tied to a tin, want to tent my toes Pleading for cats and some cash to blow If they’re receiving me, that sets belief in me Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Clipped to a clamp, need to clean my cloths Calming my self, not too far to go When no one’s chasing me, that sets relief in me Look for a lick, need to lift my jaws Scrubbing a way, and I wag towards a wodge of meat That’s lying on the floor But Mummy always told me It’s not respectable even for a dog Easy to say when you’re not hot in a doggy day Slide to the side, need to slake my sloth Bridling my dash as I dab the bone If they’re receiving me, that’s set relief in me Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day Hot in a doggy day, doggy day

about

Semi-plugged hard-rocking affair.

After 3 years of mostly recording demos for record companies, this was a first stab at recording and releasing a full album independently.

A simple start of going back to basics with some old favorite songs and making the most of the limited equipment in hand.

The album was recorded in Britten Close, a small street in Golders Green, named after the British composer, Benjamin Britten.

It's organized by order and consists of 14 albums - all 100% DIY, home-made.

Some of the albums are more properly produced, some are recorded with just vocals over an acoustic guitar, and 2 are improvised live.
