This is the second song posted from the album Bitzone, Stricknice, Wou-Wou & the Wormling, and I have been working on together with a number of other friends on SoundCloud. The first song shared was the late 80s indie American underground inspired song, Ghosting Out, that include Bonetender joining with his transistor organ and guitar. The Show / The Shrike Pt. 3 is one of the 4 songs on the album inspired by Wou-Wou & the Wormling’s graphic novel, the Shrike, which inspired this project. 

Massive thanks to Carlos Vivanco and Belial Pelegrim for joining us on this track. This is the 2nd song Belial has joined me on and the first song I have had the privilege of working with Carlos on. It is amazing to have them both on the same track together. I feel so lucky to get to work with all my favorite musicians.

Lyrics:
Slowly the room will fill with smoke 
Mirrors help occupy the hoax 
Laughing when no one gets the joke
Millions waiting for the quote
Tell me what would you do for fame
How do you plan to win the game
Can you fit in the mould they make
If I asked would you scream my name
For the show

Simon says I will take the lead
Stick with me and you will succeed 
Come and get it come and chase this dream
All you need is a sob story
Like a moth to a flame so bright
Your a slave to the stark spotlight
Cheshire cat with her teeth so white
Tune in and see it all tonight
In the show

In the show

Later that evening as smoke from the chimney was pelted by the rain
Slain and dismembered my head fully severed and mounted and displayed 
It’s hard to explain I’m awake with no pain and hallowed out in the brain
I wouldn’t complain, a life that’s mundane, is all I could hope to attain
except i was detained by bird with a man and this is what he was saying  

Are you having me on?

In the show

You are out all day and this sorry excuse is all that you bring back?
This second rate stag you decided to bag isn’t worthy of a plaque 
Did I make my self clear I can’t tell from your sneer are we still on same track
Our collection is nearly complete I conceit but there is only one thing that we lack

One human head 
One human head
Don’t disappoint me now
In the show
You’re a freak, an animal and most importantly a killer
You’re a freak, an animal and most importantly a killer
A killer
A killer
A killer

The Show / The Shrike Pt. 3

Carlos Vivanco, Belial Pelegrim, Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & Couch - The Show / The Shrike Pt. 3

I've been away for a while.  Restaurant business has been very demanding lately.   Thought I'd come back with a remix of one of my absolute favorites of the old school blues men, Bukka White.  He recorded this track back in the 30's!  Amazing that something recorded so long ago still moves me in this day and age.  Bukka had this very percussive, tribal way of playing that was incomparable, and the timbre of his voice conveyed so much emotion.  Still gives me goosebumps every time I hear him.  Hope I've honored his legacy with my remix, and I hope you enjoy it.  I'll be visiting your pages soon to hear what you've all been up to.  Cheers, Joe

Vibrations in calm Water

Track consisting of 1 bass, 1 guitar, 1 drum and heavily processed vocals, this is arguably a bit of an album filler. Started out jamming and it turned into this, didn't really go ahead and polish it (like, making the drums more interesting, and so)

I remixed it in a functional/minimal style this year to be included on the Overland album, and now making it public here on the Cloud as well to bridge the time until I can actively work on new material again.

I like the lyrics, mostly:

grinding out the foresight
moon is up and fullbright
feeding back on the insight
burning taste of the mind

final words are spoken
prayers of dead and omen
giving hell a token
of passing by, unbroken

save for skies on fire
narrowing the wire
slowly fade the choir
angels too expire

Angels Too Expire (2021 remix)

Auto Suggestion

Hi and welcome to the 7th track by "Then She Reaches For The Gun". The ever changing line up has some new members this time around as we tackle Lewis Carroll’s famous nonsense poem The Jabberwocky. I haven’t read Carroll since I was a teenager so it was a cool trip down memory lane doing a bit of background research for this piece. Big Thanks to Gary Rees who first sent me an English reading to the work a few months ago. It sat on my desktop for a while as I wondered how tackle the work. After a while it seemed obvious the best (and most fun) approach might be to get some translations recording in other languages… so thats what we did, hope u enjoy 

The Jabberwocky features the following artists


Tuonela - Electronica
Yui Nikaido - Voice (Japanese)
Gary Rees - Voice ( English)
Raul Mainer - Voice (Spanish)
Antonella Eye Porcelluzzi - Voice (French)
Paolo D’Emilio - Voice (Italian)
Frank Wilke - Voice (German)
Hverheij - Guitar
MatVee - Electronica
Widar’s Spiritual Front - Electronica

Me - noise, digital orchestra/piano

More about Then She Reaches For The Gun

The project’s inspiration is two fold: Firstly its a homage to some of the stuff i grew up listening to like Mr. Bungle and other noisy bastards where anything goes, and often in quick fire succession and secondly it” a chance to work with an never ending stream of talented musicians that i have known for years either in real life Australia or via the Internet. Each track will no doubt change depending on who has sent me what. 

If you would like to be part of this ongoing project….

The process is simple, I collect a bunch of random recordings from people and then see what i can arrange from it. Nothing subtle here, just huge noisy fun : ) I am open to anyone that thinks they might like to be part of this mess. Drop me a message and i will send you my email. The only criteria is that i wont be using samples from TV/film/other music etc, so just original stuff played on instruments, field recordings, stupid drunk conversations etc. Cheers!

From The Travelogue of Ben E. Gringo

This is the fourth part of the story of Veronique and Jeremiah, going backwards in time.
The music and cover artwork is by the wonderful BoxTox https://soundcloud.com/user-247600493 based on his 'I Remember My Friends and How We Used To Play' https://soundcloud.com/user-247600493/i-remember-my-friends-and-how-we-use-to-play Thank you Jonas : )
I added the bass, story and vocal. 
Today the Welsh Senedd (Parliament) has outlawed smacking children.

Jeremiah was a naughty boy
His daddy told him so
Though he tried to be a good boy
and he tried with all his might
He couldn't make them happy
He never seemed to get it right

Veronique was pale these days
At times he'd see her shaking
I love you mummy he would say
To try and make her better
But that just seemed to make things worse
It just seemed to upset her

I'll look after us mummy
Jeremiah said
Stroking Veronique gently as she lay upon the bed
Let's go to the picnic on Saturday
That would be lots of fun
Perhaps, if we ask her nicely
Dominique could come?

Your daddy is a nasty man
and he's never coming back
When Jeremiah thought about
The things that he would lack
He wouldn't miss his daddy
Or his shouting or his smacks

Jeremiah Was A Naughty Boy (music by BoxTox, bass and story by Garddwr Porffor)

Breathe.
Don’t you know when the river’s out
It’s not a place you want to be around, oh no
Close your eyes so you cannot see
It’s not a place where you want to be right now
Things have been rough on you
Things have been rough on you
I know
Things been bad for me too
Things been bad for me too
Oh I know

Liars and thieves and treacheries
Counter-intuitive conspiracies
Oh I know
Sinking ships with this broken glass
‘Cos baby don’t you know nothing evers gonna last
Oh I know
Things have been rough on you
Things have been rough on you
Oh I know
Things been bad for me too
Things been bad for me too
Oh I know

Breathe darling
Don’t let go
Breathe darling 
Don’t let go
