Strangers in the Subway

Why Can't You See The Pain is a song about a teen girl's life struggles. Thinking that no one cares, and going through life like a snow globe that everyone "shakes and stares" at. The song builds with the question, "Will I ever live again-well maybe." I hope you feel the deep pain that some teenage girls struggle with on a daily basis

Why Can't You See The Pain

I AM A PUNK
Music by Overdrive & Marc Freak

Another incredibly fun partnership with the always brilliant Marc Freak.

A prolific musician, author, photographer and (as he defines himself) oddity, Marc's influences range from the lo-fi pop of Guided by Voices to the gothic melodrama of Nick Cave, via the glam of Bowie and the rawness of Iggy Pop. Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe, an experiment in DIY and lo-fi. A visit to Marc Freak's Soundcloud page is an absolute must:

LYRICS
I AM A PUNK

I am a punk
I don't know who Taylor Swift is
I made a best friend a sandwich and I filled it with my jizz
I am a punk
I spat my spit into a crowd
I do all I'm not allowed and I sing it out aloud
I am a punk

I dyed my my hair all green
I don't know where I've been and my breath's obscene
I am a punk
I have holes in both my socks
Scars from chicken pox
Yet my girlfriend is a fox
I am a punk

I am a punk
With a ring right through my nose
And I'll show my middle finger in a striking pose
I am punk
I'll listen to what I wanna
This life is no fun and I think I'll do a runner
I am a punk

I'm stinking with a sweat
I've shunned all I've met
And I've got a rabid pet
I am a punk
My middle names' Ramone
I have a 90's mobile phone and I weigh just 9 stone
I am a punk

My best mate is called Sid
He cut his finger trying to open up a bottle of cider lid
I am a punk
I've got an STD
A loving family who think the world of me
I am a punk

I'm just punking around doing nothing
But these eyes are warm and loving for the right person

I am a punk
I saw what your neighbour did
So I stole the box of drugs that he so lovingly hid
I am a punk
I just sit against the wall
And shout abuse at all whilst I listen to The Fall
I am a punk

77 still seems fresh
My shirt is made of mesh
I've got a tattoo on my flesh
I am a punk
I squeezed a spot of yellow pus
I ride home on the double decker bus
And there's a punk in each of us
I am a punk

I'm just punking around doing nothing
But these eyes are warm and loving

I Am A Punk

For my new album LIFE, the opening track "Genome" sets the tone with a vibrant jazz fusion vibe, blending rhythmic guitar solos with wild, electrifying keys. It's a journey through intricate grooves and spontaneous energy, capturing the essence of jazz rock with a modern twist.

Out Now! Listen to Rare Elements’ new single moving through the terrain of metal, hard rock and alternative rock.

Sullen Eros

New voice, introspective lyrics....musical style that has definitely turned towards rock-metal. It is still always listenable with catchy melodic lines.

BE A DEVIL
 
(Bm/D/A/Bm) x 4
bridge: (C/Bm/C/Bm/C/Bm/C#7/F#7)
(Bm/D/A/Bm) x 2

Thinks she’s hot
With the black around her eyes
Tries to look bad
But she’s an angel in disguise

Sharpened up her nails
And filed her teeth
Nobody’s fooled
She’s a softie underneath

She shaved half her head
And she’s covered in tattoos
Inked all over
With reds and greens and blues

And she puts on clothes
Like the Whore of Babylon 
Such a nice girl
Ain’t seducing anyone 

Be a devil
Be a devil
Be a devil
Be a devil 

Gotta get evil
Gotta be more nihilistic 
Gotta break some rules
Gotta buy some darker lipstick

Gott love the darkness
And hate the light 
Gotta  be a devil 
And you’ll be all right.

Be A Devil

Imagine if a big hard-rock song from the 1960's had Alice In Chains vocal harmonies, and Dave Grohl from Nirvana and the Foo Fighters on drums.  That's sort of the vibe here.  This song is for everyone out there fighting every day to be a better person and learn from the mistakes of your past!

Gonna Let It Burn
