If Beasts Pray

The Second single from Gay Paris' new album "The Last Good Party" due for release in April 2013. 

Lyrics: 


We ran all night and now the sun is a tangerine promise dripping blood, crows wet red
It was a long day, the hills all frowned, the lazy sunset, how it goes down!
Slow drunken breeze
Lope your bones, peel back your lips
Show off your teeth, daggered out my eyes, dress as men throw on your robes, a mincing mummers play
Stone
The desert witch, her sleep comes slow
Mother’s not so holy when we put her in the ground to stay!
I won’t deny that I’m a beast
The bullman sleeps in the boughs again
I got a secret, “Oh we won't believe it!”
Down wind your mothers fear to sleep, I got release and a dirty end
I got a secret, “Oh we won't believe it!”
I got a secret baby I got plans, “Oh he's got a secret, oh he's got a secret!”
Horns down but show no sign of grief
I got a secret, I got a secret. “Oh we won't believe it!”
You’re done, you’re prey we need to eat
But it’s a farce, we know too well and often times, you give me hell, burn the mask 
Come on now, boys, whip your necks
On the muddy banks, I’ll leave your head with drunken river boats, the moon is greedy and she floats
Bloat
You carnal ghouls, the dripping dead
The ashen spooks beneath the mansion have good reason, it’s a holiday!
I won’t deny that I’m a beast
The bullman sleeps in the boughs again
I got a secret, “Oh we won't believe it!”
Down wind your mothers fear to sleep, I got release and a dirty end
I got a secret, “Oh we won't believe it!”
I got a secret baby I got plans, “Oh he's got a secret, oh he's got a secret!”
Horns down but show no sign of grief
I got a secret, I got a secret. “Oh we won't believe it!”
You’re done, you’re prey we need to eat
I got a secret, sugar I'll be damned
I got my brother man make amends
I got a secret and these dirty hands
I got a secret babe, let it end
I got plans I got plans
Crows wet red
Slow drunken breeze
And now we play the desert’s game
The bull man sleeps in the boughs again
And now we play the desert's game.

Ghost Off In Umbra

Gay Paris are a dirty fucking rock band from Sydney. They play music that grabs you by the chest, hands you a whiskey and makes you dance well past your bedtime, every time. Gay Paris are known for having one of the best live shows in Australia, hands down. Super sharp, astoundingly inventive and often naked, they don’t just play a set, they entertain the shit out of their audience.

While the band are at home in the Blues/Swamp/Rock genres, they are also completely compatible with pop, metal and even folk bills, sharing stages with likes of Karnivool, The Beards and The Snowdroppers. By focusing on creating great hooks and delivering an unstoppably energetic live show, the band is accessible to anyone looking for a good time, becoming a major drawcard for festivals and events.

Don’t believe the band – here are the media quotes:

“Matching an undeniable stage presence with their wild-eyed, swampy style of rock, it didn’t take too long at all for the audience to lose their collective shit.”
Fasterlouder.com

“It’s about time Australia experienced a hard rock resurgence and Gay Paris could easily lead that revolution,”
Liveguide.com.au

“THAT voice. Gay Paris continue to cream this thing called rock and roll.”
Dave Ruby Howe, triple j

“Imagine Captain Beefheart screaming obtuse horror stories over a band that references everything from Aerosmith to Refused, all delivered with some slightly tipsy theatrics and a lot tongue in cheek.”
Dan Lander, Rolling Stone

Gay Paris released their first single ‘The Demarcation of Joseph Hollybone’ and toured nationally with sold out shows late 2012.

Their new album ‘The Last Good Party’ was recorded with the help of one of the most creative and entertaining Pozible campaigns in crowd funding history. Produced and recorded in Australia with acclaimed Californian Producer Sam Pura (The Story So Far, Basement) the album is an invite to rock n roll excess for rock fans everywhere. Unapologetically dirty, crammed with catchy riffs and swampy hooks, The Last Good Party is aptly titled.

The Last Good Party will be released through all good record stores 19th April 2013 and the band will undertake a national tour to support the release, and you can see them almost everywhere.
