“Unfound” closes Solar Messiah with haunting finality — a slow-burning modern-rock epic about searching for meaning in the aftermath of loss. The outro swells with layered guitars and emotional weight, fading into silence like a prayer unanswered.

“‘Turning Ill’ will floor you and is probably the closest here to the sound of their debut.” ~The Rockpit

Lyrics for the song "Turning ill:"
Sometimes, sometimes I swear it isn’t my mind
It’s your mind that’s making up for lost time
Lost time, you swore it was a good time
But it wasn’t with me
Keep trying, keep trying oh you’re trying to convince me
Convince me it’s a memory
But I know or at least I’ve got a feeling
A feeling you’re the enemy
'cause once it stops, it never does
No, no, no

Feed my troubled thoughts that turn ill
Believe your insults to my soul

‘cause once it stops it never does
I’ll be okay you never will

See your love once he’s gone
You’re alone, all alone

‘cause once it stops it never does
I’ll be okay you never will
You fucking whore 
You wrecked our lives
So say your prayers 
It’s time to die

Pound my chest
Bang my head
Crack my skull
Leave me dead

See your love once he's gone
You’re alone, all alone

If I had known
If I had tried just to know
This hell I’ve known, I can’t survive
I don’t know

Turning Ill

The follow up to our 2017 debut.

“This Hell” is a lament that’s accentuated by shrieking guitars and Joe Bradshaw’s doom-stricken drums. The song serves as a tribute to a young girl’s fight against cancer. Orem’s tone is resolute as he recounts her bravery despite the unfavorable odds: “You don’t own me, and I’m not scared.”~Buzzy Band

Lyrics to the song "This Hell:"
Going through the motions, try to find some strength
Try to put on makeup, try to beat this day
Heard these notes, she’s losing hope
She keeps screaming softly “please God no”

No one knows why, these things they happen
But she’ll keep fighting, this HELL, this CANCER
Know this, she will keep on trudging
The strength that fills her, it’s in the air

“You don’t own me, and I’m not scared”
In time, she’ll go down and she sees that they’re all frowning
And dreams it was all a dream, but we see that she’s already down for the count

Young girl fought nails and teeth, never gave it up
Understand that you’ll miss them when they are gone
It took it’s hold
Evil disruption when it comes too young
You’re finally home
No more pain at your heels, no more drugs that burn
No more aches, sick and drained
REST IN PEACE, YOUNG GIRL
This is a life of a young girl

This Hell

Well I know this is a cover and not my usual style but lockdown makes you do weird things. Normal service will be resumed. When? Dunno, but I suspect BoJo knows.  Big greetings and musical hugs to you from a slightly 'stir crazy' burn.it.smith (a.k.a. Antony x)

The day that fell

I went camping for a few days to hang out with the trees, but I have returned with a new tune.

I've been trying to improve my guitar skills as i feel ive been plateaued for a while now, and so i have been learning new songs including a lot of Hendrix which gave me the idea to incorporate bass notes with my thumb into the riff (Little Wing etc). 

Lots of people wander this earth struggling with depression, sadness and a lack of purpose in their life. This song is a story about nature encouraging the people of earth to live out their dreams and reassuring them that there is no reason to frown and no reason not to shoot for their goals right now.
Because after all, the only real time is now.

Tears fall from the sky
All the people they run and hide
All the people they run inside
They should smile, but they cry

Tears fall from the clouds
All the people they run around
All the people they fall and drown
They should smile, but they frown

Only if they knew just above the clouds
There were bright blue skies shinin all around
Calling to the people theyre smiling down
Callin out theres no need to frown

The birds they sing to the people too
Hey you fools its time to do
All the things you ever dreamed of
Write that book that you always speak of

I see
Angels
Weeping
All around me

If only 
They knew
How much
They can do

This is the title track from my recent Bandcamp album to benefit the Myrna Brind Center at Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals. They continue to do amazing work, and they have my complete support.

Appreciation

Lost Paradise

This song is dedicated to my gran Phyllis Tewson whose husband died in his fifties. She lived in the same house on her own until she couldn’t look after herself in her late eighties. She was an inspiration to me and she never complained about her lot. Always took an interest in young people and was enthusiastic about all the crap that I shared with her in spite of my naivety. I think about her a lot.

 Jacques Blamont, 1er directeur scientifique et technique du CNES à partir de 1962 :
Le général de Gaulle avait comme objectif principal de sa politique l'établissement de la France comme une puissance, une des puissances dirigeante du monde, et pour cela il avait besoin de "La Force De Frappe"
Il lui fallait des fusées, alors pour cela il a créé un organisme spécial
qui était une sorte d'arsenal civil qui dépendait du ministère de la défense
Je l'ai appelé la SEREB
Et bien, Ils se sont mis à travailler sur la possibilité d'utiliser des moyens de la force de frappe, c'est à dire des fusées de la force de frappe pour mettre en orbite un satellite
Mais en même temps le gouvernement a compris que ce n'était pas suffisant qu'il fallait autre chose, il fallait un environnement ça ne servait à rien de lancer un satellite si il n'y avait pas des gens qui travaillaient à en faire quelque chose d'utile, avoir un programme
