Weapons Down

Sunday Funday 

Don't slow down
I can barely keep up now
What did my liver ever do to you
You look so good moving to rock tunes
On that jukebox
Dancing slutty on the table tops
Don't ever let me make you stop
Turn it up until our ears pop
Drunk smile, i'm down for the count

The room's spinning
Face tingling
Oh, my words are slurring
Maybe you should take me home
My heart's racing
Eyes chasing
Libido escalating 
Maybe just one more for the road

Got your drink on
Singing off tune to our favourite songs
What did those poor boys ever do to you
Leading on every man in this room
You know you're hot
Lining up all them tequila shots
Don't ever let them make you stop
Turn it up until the bass drops
Drunk hearts, we're down for the count

Fun, you are just so much fun
You're my favourite drunk
Oh you're just so much fun
No you're just so much fun...

Always Summer Time

Albert Meintjes - The very silence of waiting in this place

A style of music that I have been longing to do for quite some time, but couldn't find the right producer to work with till I met with Mark Beling and a new direction was created... Song was produced and mixed by Mark Beling, and Mastered by Andre Dias from Post Modern Mastering. 
A song about missing the old days and creating time to make things work... Hope is the last thing to die :) Enjoy it

At the age of five, Albert was already on stage singing in his school choir which were the runner-up in the Applause national choir competition. In 1997 his music career took him to the rock stages of SA and he soon found himself sharing the spotlight with the cream of SA talent, including bands like Strange Weather, Duusman, the SAMA award winning Not My Dog and the ever so popular Scicoustic of which Albert has been the front man for the past eleven years.
Albert has performed with New Porn alongside Arno Carstens, supporting the Metallica tour and on stage with some of the top artists in the country like Albert Frost, Anton La’mour, Karen Zoid, Greg Georgiades, Valiant Swart, Shaun Morgan (Seether), Hugo De Waal , Lani van der Walt and Moseu Kettlele just to name a few.
