This is "The Album" so far.

We're putting studio tracks out in the order they are intended to be listened to. It's a concept album, it tells a story and uses the "hero's journey" as a template to do that.

The story is about you.

LYRICS: 

Welcome to your entertainment for the evening
We're just here to check that you're still sleeping
Put your headset on, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone;
Where you're going there is no need for thinking...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Blow your mind inside the need for connection
Which is worse, indifference or rejection?
Stare into the screen, keep your mind unclean
Your device is suffering from an infection, yeah, yeah, yeah

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Your leaders won your thoughts and your names
The awakening is rising in your veins
Stare into The Sun
See the darkness run
They all forgot: in this world, Chaos reigns...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

The Roaring Twenties

LYRICS: 

Green skinned and beautiful with long red hair
Eyes jet black with a threatening stare
Legs; long, sharp claws, thin black lips
Tight little cape flowing round her hips

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She looked at me and she, read my mind
I looked at her I said; what did you find?
Had me that night and the very next day
Taught me to spell; magick with a "K"

She is a Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky
Go get your broom and lets get high
Lift up your legs and touch the sky

Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

She said she came from Lemuria,
I looked at her and said are you sure yeah?
So she took me all the way to Lemuria and
She's definitely from Lemuria

I said: Waterwitch, yeah
I never thought of it, oh no
What, a Witch? Yeah?
I never thought of it, oh no!

Waterwitch

Are people honest;
Or do most of them pretend?
We believe in love;
Or is that something that we say?

Your memory, really is your best friend
But when the truth is hidden does it matter anyway?

Black Cat, tell us how it is; black cat, tell us how it is: I-A-O-U-E

Now the end is near, see how their faces speak of gloom.
Can you read their minds? Or do their eyes give you the proof?
We're falling down, we've walled a monster in a tomb!
As the animal screams, here it try to tell the truth...

All good people your time has come, all good people your time has come I-A-O-U-E...

(Art by Neil Carey; @mrbultitude on Instagram)

Black Cat

See The Lion at the bottom of the road?
Telling everyone he is made of gold?
Standing in the night when it's quiet and still.
Turn your eyes and look towards the hill...

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

There's a rock in a field just before the park
What they did up there has left a mark
It's where the burned the Witches in times gone by
It's where they took our sisters, to die

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

When the wind changes it blows your mind
There's a million rainbows in your lies
Can you hear the birds calling out your name?
The entire universe knows you're ashamed

We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives
We're going down in the ground where the devil lives

--

Fourth song in the series. It's a concept album, it tells a story. It's set in #Lancaster in the UK. The lyrics to this one put you outside The Golden Lion pub, at night, and take you up the road to the rock in the field just before the park which is there to commemorate the Witches of Pendle, "and all who were killed for their faith".

The Devil Lives

Man with the exploding brain:

Is there a reason, that we cannot find
Why all the people, are losing their mind
What is the truth, or is there no such thing
Can you believe, - in anything?

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He is the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried -  he's going insane.

Outside his window. There are people to fear
Inside his house. There is no one here
Do not question. Cause they'll find you out
No thinking, thinking leads to doubt

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

'Now it's over we can be normal and new
We've got machines, to tell you what is true
We've done and said - things we all regret
So it's time - to forgive and forget

He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.
He's the man! With the exploding brain.
And he's worried. That he's going insane.

Another Love Song

sequel to the claustrophobic epic, "Blitz". Part 2 explores the period of calm after the bad trip has passed. Multiple key and tempo changes. Madness. Enlightenment. Peace.

Blitz Part 2

Colours of the world in black and white
The Universe fills up with ineffable light
Movement takes this place into the night
Nothing here is ever wrong or right

Please awaken, please awaken me
Please awaken, please awaken me

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

All these things are true
And they are false
Magick is both real
and it is false

The demons in your
mind are real and false
The angels in your
heart are real and false

Please awaken, please awaken me
Please awaken, please awaken me

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

What's the truth,
When you don't know,
Who you are?

What's The Truth (When You Don't Know Who You Are)?

One theme , 4 different versions. With the huge help from my mate Wonder Georg !

The 4 Colors Pen w/ Georg Boehme

Sounds odd but I think I more or less agree with these lyrics. The "purpose" of life or for that matter anything is subject to interpretation. However i do think we spend far too much time and energy searching for a reason or purpose when one probably does not exist. Life is a wonderful accident. This distraction of searching for "meaning" distracts us I think from the practical task at hand: caring for each other and the planet.

lyrics
I walked through the woods on a sunny day
nothing on my mind to get in the way
I looked to my left,I looked to my right
I looked straight up at the sky so bright
when I stumbled uopn something hard to explain
6 big trees in a circle so perfect
there HAD to be a reason
There HaAd to be a purpose
who could have done such a wonderous thing
Deep in the woods away from everything

As I left the trees and walked along
my eyes now firmly fixed on the ground
I didn't look left, I didn't look right
my ears had gone deaf,my eyes had gone blind
my mind was too full
my thoughts too profound
a circle? why a circle?
so perfectly round
what was the purpose?
A reason MUST be found

I kept walking with those trees on my mind
to my surprise what did I find
a big empty field of broken swords and shields
piles of bones of horses and men
a glorious battle here must have been
I saw 2 banners, one red and one blue
facing each other as the cold winds blew
one bright and proud of this I was sure
but now dull and tattered,ripped and torn
each of them stained with the blod of the other
I wonder who won this epic struggle

I picked up a skull and looked into the eyes
and started at the empty space inside
why did you fight? why did you die?
where is your gold? where ids your glory?
Is there no one left to ell your story?
what was the cause? what was the purpose? it must have been great to cause such carnage
but the forest was silent I heard no answer
there was no reason why
I thought of the circle I thought of the skull
so I left the clearing  with a step that was light
I looked to my left I looked to my right
I looked straight up at the sky so bright

we work too hard sometimes it seems 
to give a purpose to everything we see
and no longer have to ask mysellf why?
now I can look up at the sky

the circle and the skull ( are we kidding ourselves??)

Harsh Vulnerable explores a heavier more somber sound for M.E.; with emphasis on post rock elements and more acoustic tonalities. It serves as a cathartic/coping expression for what I have been going through on both a personal level as well as the bleak global outlook.

“The Light” was the last track produced for the album. It’s focus is resilience in the face of adversity. 
Harsh Vulnerable is available in Bandcamp for only $3-

Mood Exhibit - The Light

DarkCircle

Inspired by “The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus, 1883.
Copyright 2025

They got on boats, and they sailed across the ocean hoping for a better life
They left behind poverty, famine, hardship and strife
She lifted her lamp behind the golden door
She welcomed them with open arms 
But we don’t need those people any more 
We’ll use robots to tend our farms
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
They say a rising tide lifts all boats but now it’s every nation for itself
As the billionaires and oligarchs accumulate more wealth
We’re all just living on this rock floating in the vastness of space
You’d think we’d find a way to co-exist as one human race
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
Someday if you’re standing there waiting at the pearly gates
With a bunch of other people waiting in line to get into heaven
And you’re filling out God’s paperwork so you can immigrate 
How will answer that question did you love or did you hate 
There are people who call themselves Christians who don’t practice what they preach
They see a man whose down on his luck, and they consider him a human leech
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.

Angry Mob Wearing Red Caps
