Work It Out

Dibs (Demo)

Another track for February Album Writing Month (Fawm.org).  This one was not part of a public challenge, but it was a challenge for me, nonetheless.  

I'm a sucker for good break-up songs.  Even though I've not been in one since college, the ones I have left a permanent coat hanging in my closet of moods - and while I've no need to wear it out, I can put it on just the an occasion like this song... and it still fits. :)

Anyways that's enough romanticizing. This song is is where the one you thought you loved has become your emotional executioner - all written in the context of a BANK ROBBERY.

And true to form, a Very unfinished demo with a missing second verse.  *sigh*  I wouldn't have posted it at all, except I need to have something that justifies why I was up past 3am last night.

Kisses to Chaos

do exactly as I tell you
while counting in twos
and put your lies where I can see them
it's something to prove
nobody moves.

every whisper hits my ear
with the shot of a gun
you've fired away
fire away

every sentence engineered
just to hurt only one
from kisses to chaos
shrieking in tongues

Kisses to Chaos (DEMO)

Lovesong For the Apocalypse
PRISTINA feat. Benét Comeau
(j.belville)

We're all lost and finally found
caught in the wake of the crashing sound
take my hand, let's spin it around
ashes, ashes, it all falls down

we are the voice of nothing to say
we are the lovesick coming of age
we are the choice of the free and insane
ashes, ashes, we all fall...

and we kiss like it's the end of the world
and the beginning of something we surround
as the city's burning down around us
and we hold tight, here at the end of the world
in the glimmer of hope that we have found
as the stars are falling down..

We're pushing through Hell!
We're calling down angels
We're walking though fire
Fire

tick tocks, the clock stops,
the bomb drops.
we've got the locks blocked, 
the long shot.
we watch the flames talk
and let it all burn.
ashes, ashes, it all falls down

Spin spin round
we can't walk it off
we're crashing down
we can't turn it off
we've lost and found our way
but we can wish it away.

and we kiss like it's the end of the world
and the beginning of something we surround
as the city's burning down around us
and we hold tight, here at the end of the world
in the glimmer of hope that we have found
as the stars are falling down..

We're pushing through Hell!
We're calling down angels
We're walking though fire

pushing through fire!

Violet Hours – Alone With Everyone

Violet Hours – Berlin

Founded by Joey Belville and fortified by Chrissy Jeter, electro-pop force The Echoing Green developed a genre-defying live act touring the world with various hardcore, ska, and rock bands - the genres making strange bedfellows at the time. Songwriting duo Belville & Jeter have evolved The Echoing Green into a dynamic and compelling pioneer of the electronic landscape, with an 11-album catalogue blending pop, rock, electro, new wave, post-punk, and synthpop, with singles featured on SyFy and Xbox’s DDR Universe. Rooted in a love for all electronica and shaped by pop sensibility, their music explores literary, philosophical, and spiritual depths through melodic hooks and dance-ready beats. 

The band found early inspiration in synth-heavy 80s groups Depeche Mode and New Order establishing their own style by infusing rock and synth elements into charismatic live shows. Their hybrid sound is often compared to indie/synth/new wave acts The Naked & Famous,  Actors, Cold Cave, Nine Inch Nails, and CHVRCHES soundtracking life on society’s fringe and drawing a diverse fan base ranging from goths to gospel-lovers, punks to pop enthusiasts.

Set for October 23 release, their new double-vinyl collection Violent Whispers: Songs and Stories from the Echoing Green offers a remastered overview of the unique spectrum of music they’ve created, from the dark, electro-grunge track “Revenge” (imagine NIN covering “Video Killed the Radio Star”) to the sparse, industrial cool of “Matter” to the bright, 80s new wave of “I Forget.”
