Let Us Hurt Ourselves

Lyrics:
CQ CQ CQ
This is Whiskey November Seven November
Whiskey November Seven November
Standing by

CQ calling in the middle of the night
Skips and hops if the conditions are right
Adjusting the squelch on my TYT
Silent noise nightmare…
Or a DX dream?

In the static
A signal is sung
Fading voices
Like ghosts they haunt

CW dits and dahs
Such a pity I never learned morse code
...---...

End of Transmission!
Gatekeepers and angry old men
Maybe I should switch to the citizens band

‘strange device’ is an ambitious and immersive journey into the darker corners of the human experience. Created by the duo cyntrix and the pilot, the album weaves together a powerful blend of distorted guitars, heavy bass, breakcore drums, and choral-style vocals to create a moody and sinister soundscape. Thematically, it delves into complex emotional realms, exploring trauma, grief, and existential dread alongside deeper themes of generational curses, moral scrupulosity, and the psychological toll of CPTSD, anxiety, and depression.

At the heart of strange device lies the title track, a cinematic rock piece that balances the album’s extremes of sound and emotion. Featuring a dynamic range of distorted guitars, synth solos, and obscure sci-fi-inspired effects, this song embodies the duo’s signature blend of intricate sound design and emotionally charged storytelling. It draws listeners into a world where personal suffering is inextricably linked to larger existential questions, offering moments of both despair and resilience.

The album represents a significant creative leap for cyntrix and the pilot. Pushing themselves beyond the electronic realm, they embraced a wider sonic palette, incorporating electric guitars, six-string bass, drum kits, and even field recordings to achieve a massive and atmospheric wall of sound. These experimental techniques were designed to reflect the album's colossal themes—nihilism, spiritual psychosis, wrath, death, and the decay of both body and mind.

In ‘strange device’, the duo confronts the agony of being born into a world darkened by the weight of past generations. Through this sonic exploration, they pose a singular, poignant question: when surrounded by the darkness, do you surrender and darken with it, or do you rise to become a beacon of light?

Lyrics:

Made my mistakes
While you would watch
Me burn, and burn
But i love the thought
The thought of us
I cant turn, cant turn away
Why wont you stay
If there's nothing to change
I cant take, the pain away
One more mistake
Straight to my brain
All the memories of just you and me

Your too hard to tame
So I dug my grave
For you
Maybe I'm to blame
For all of our pain
Its eating my alive

Cause I made my mistakes
While you would watch
Me burn, and burn
But I love the thought
The thought of us
I cant change, can't change cause I

Made my mistakes
While you would watch
Me burn, and burn but I
I love the thought
The thought of us
I cant turn, cant turn so why
Why wont you stay
If there's nothing to change
I cant take, the pain
One more mistake
Straight to my brain
All the memories of just you and me

[LYRICS]

take the time to become mine
i know you sing about me
i see you up on the stage, and i-
swoon...
got recorded hours of ours
fuck...

[EVERYBODY BE QUIET, PLEASE!]

little bird picked right up
squeeze too hard
that's just love...
i'm not the monster the toaster portrays me as!

[IT'S T R U E]

S E N T I M E N T A L makes me miss my memories...

you never seem to be happy...
i see you smile, and i-
die...
i just want to make you happy...
even if i'm not your type

[I SWEAR TO GOD, I'M NOT FUCKING CRAZY! I'M NOT INSANE!]

you have to realize:
most people don't notice much
i miss that so much...
my 90's soma... 
like yesterday...
will we be okay?

you never seem to be happy...
i'll see you smile, when i-
die...
i just want to make you happy...
even if I'm not your type
you never thought that you'd be happy here... 
well- 
you'll just have to learn to, my dear
you never thought that you'd be happy here...
[YOU ARE.]
well-
you'll just have to learn to, my dear

[SMILE... JUST RELAX...]

For the most part, I write stories and make music to go along with them.
