where were you when the breakdown began?

Some will never leave
And it's alright
They've never seen the outside
Too afraid to go
It's all they've ever known
It's no place for you and I

I see a familiar face 
Everytime
I can't go outside
In the shadow of the mountain
They know me
But not by name
They keep you in your place
They laugh at your disgrace again
Again
Can't get out
Will it ever end?

Help 
Get me out
This town leaves a stain on you
Cuts you up 
Knocks you down
And has its way with you

It's had its way with you

The selfrighteous 
Set themselves alight
We''ll watch the whole city burn
tonight

It's a black hole
Here in the shadow of the mountain

In The Shadow Of The Mountain

The McNulty Family: Rattigan's Fancy/Blackberry Blossom (reels)

We can always take it
If we want it
You know it's better off
In our hands
Throw it back in their faces
They won't even dare
You know they're all so crazy
No one would even care

They say it's all stolen
Either way it's mine
You can always fake it
And say it's a lie

We can always take it
If we want it
You know it's better off
In our hands
Throw it back in their faces
We did it better
You know they're all so filthy
It doesn't matter

You say it's all stolen
Either way it's mine
We can always take it
Again 
Any time

Ah, La Perfide Angleterre

"Y a-t-il ici un petit amour ?
Qui veuille jouer avec une petite belle ?
Nous pourrions jouer jusque-là fin du jour
Dans notre petit royaume des merveilles. 
Y a-t-il ici un petit amour
Qui veuille s'émouvoir avec cette belle ? 
Nous pourrions danser jusqu'au dernier jour
Dans un rythme très lent plein de beaux soleils."

L'amour qu'on ressent si intensément, 
Qu'aucune autre chose ne nous atteint vraiment, 
Le monopole vital de nos sentiments
Eclipse nos problèmes, nos inconvénients

L'amour qui nous ronge toujours du dedans
Dans le déluge extrême de nos émotions 
On cherche ses yeux parmi tous les gens
Et plus rien d'autre ne mérite attention

Alors on la cherche, 
On ne peut se résoudre,
Où mènent nos recherches
Orage ou bien foudre ?
On part à Séville
Juste pour lui voler
Une petite étreinte
Ou même un baiser...
Alors on la cherche, 
On ne peut se résoudre,
Où mènent nos recherches
Orage ou bien foudre ?
On part à Séville
Juste pour lui voler
Une petite étreinte
Sous un oranger…

L'amour qui survient, matin de septembre
Quand l'été s'éteint car arrive novembre
On reçoit ses mots comme de beaux écrins
Contenant trop d'amour pour être serein...

L'amour est toujours une chanson touchante
Mais l'hiver est là, fine lame tranchante
Les résultats tombent, on n'y peut plus rien
La belle aux oranges, y peut encore moins

Alors on la cherche, 
On ne peut se résoudre,
Où mènent nos recherches
Orage ou bien foudre ?
On part à Séville
Juste pour lui voler
Une petite étreinte
Ou même un baiser...
Alors on la cherche, 
On ne peut se résoudre,
Où mènent nos recherches
Orage ou bien foudre ?
On part à Séville
Juste pour lui voler
Une petite étreinte
Sous un oranger…

L'amour est ainsi qu'il ne s'efface pas,
Dans tous nos récits, il est toujours là,
La fin du chemin pour celui des deux
Qui l'aimait bien trop pour devenir vieux.

"Y a-t-il ici un petit amour ?
Qui veuille jouer avec une petite belle ?
Nous pourrions jouer jusque-là fin du jour
Dans notre petit royaume des merveilles."

A dark and radical music produced in contrast to a sanitized and normalized era. Brigade Apache's First Album suggests a convincing alternative: bifurcation and dissidence. An abrasive and wild Sci-Fi space opera, unclassifiable Electro/Acid/New Beat/Post Punk, "Firefly" introduces the possibility of pogo on the dancefloor, through a melancholic and brutal soundtrack carried by machines played like guitars in a garage, and illustrated by the enigmatic landscapes of Laura Kopf who designed the album's cover.

BRIGADE APACHE - LUCKY TRIP

been a while - bleeding busy with work and a house move ... hopefully getting there with the new 'music studio' over the next few weeks :)

here's a little optimistic tune which is nowhere near publishable, but then again, not many of my recording are  :)

hope you like it anyway ...

A tired mind if of a god
Can see the truth no longer
A tired beast don't care how strong
The human beast is stronger
A tired mind if of a god
Created men and allowed them to mutate
A tired mind if of a god
Soon realised it is too late

The human mind so motivated
By curiosity and greed
Capacity for good And evil
No consequence for either deed
Food, shelter, love and children
And their survival guaranteed
They set about wholesale destruction
Of all the laws the lord decreed


And now godlike in every sense
The human mind seems tired too
Created an intelligence 
With no master to answer to
No petty needs, no limits to ability
Evolution we cannot foresee
With wonder we sit back and find
Gods create what ends their kind

Pied Piper, Pt.1

I am a solo artist. I make electronic songs via Bandlab influenced by postpunk, alternative rock, shoegaze, gothic rock, and grunge. My main influences are The Sisters of Mercy, Alice in Chains, PJ Harvey, Slowdive, Sad Lovers and Giants, The Kinks, Joy Division, Portishead, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Switchblade Symphony, Smashing Pumpkins, The Doors, The Knife, Кино, Electric Wizard, and The Cure. In no special order. I seek to blend these influences and create something new.
