The world is burning... but our new EP is out now! It opens with ‘Ready to Use Bug Wash feat. Calleja’, which was written and recorded at the Sage, Gateshead, during our Summer Studios residency. Featuring Calleja on Trumpet laying down rousing jazzy licks, lyrically this track probes at wilful ignorance in the wake of civilisation burning.

It also features brand new track 'Cemetery Lane Caravan Park' (inspired by a Caravan Park of the same name). It treads a path less badgered with glitchy ambient audio manipulation (verging on the microtonal) resulting in an ominously positive existential musing.

The last track is a rework of our 2018 track 'Panopticon' from our first EP (crazy to think that came out 4 years, a global pandemic and a couple of wars ago)

...so as the rats crawl in tighter, ask yourself, do they fear being alone?

Lyrics
Every smoke that I roll, you watch me smoke to the bone 
And every song that I stole will be returned once you know 
That we’re all just sound and light and together we will climb 
Resonate from inside, that’s your power, that’s true might. 
Oh I can feel your mind; change your thoughts, make things fine. 
But that’s for you to decide. I’m just here – A ghost by your side. 
Running like the water in the river banks hold. Walked upon like the road. 
Comfort me with your rose. My body lies where flowers grow, 
So in the end when we lose all hope and drown in drink and burn in smoke. 
I hope that you know you’re the life within the rose. 
So in the end when we’ve lost all hope and drowned in drink and overdosed, 
I hope that you know you’re the life within the rose. 
I hope that you know; I’m the ghost within your bones…

The Rose

I wanna be your dog (live at The Globe 22/07/16)

Lyrics:
Cigarette stained fingers 
Message sent, scents linger. 
Aromas, fold the papers, 
burn the folder, 
second place for the winners 
team mates, grave faced, Let down, 
disappointing. What a weight, 
carried away. Carry the shame, 
Undeniable mental pain. Men lay slain. 
Women cry and children play. 
Unaware of the past life mistakes 
their parents became, 
numbed down and enslaved, 
growing up, they would never say. 
Realise or glamorise, 
thinking that freedom was 
in a state, in a place, our right 
unite kingdoms, European 
brainwashing plates 
clearing tables as cultures fade 
Do you see the planes ? 
infecting chemical skies 
People die, so what? 
accept or rejection is all we've got. 

Without the substance – Without disturbance 
Without the serpents – Without the burdens 
Without the solace behind your curtains 
You have your purpose behind the curtains and that is certain. 

The voices call - return to All... 
It became brutal 
but the garden is fruitful 
and the juice is useful 
to quench the bitter with the truthful. 
Half empty or half full, 
take a mouthful then tell me how you feel. 
This observation is always changing. 
You were faded but now you’re bold. 
Resolve the resolution, 
the walls are falling. 
No boundary stands between us. 
Thrive vigorous with the ambiguous. 
Follow your heart into the depth of deliverance. 
The significance of your magnificence, 
the significance of your magnificence 
reassures the ambivalence leading me astray. 
Victory rose on my judgement day. 

It’s okay to reflect on choices made, voices raise with harmony that awaits… 

Without the substance – Without disturbance 
Without the serpents – Without the burdens 
Without the solace behind your curtains 
You have your purpose behind the curtains and that is certain.

Without Certainty

The experimental electronic duo debuts on Real Sesh Records with 'Peace Lover'.

SQUARMS is the brainchild of LYDN & WRST. 'Peace Lover' is a straight-up catchy pop banger, with some underlying dub vibes. It was mastered in Newcastle's own Loft Studios.

The video for the track was a collaboration with another upcoming local artist, (Karl Sherwin of Mandelbrot Video Productions) and features the duo in a variety of =spooky= scenarios as they jam their way through the piece.

Their next release "She Left The TV On"  is dropping via the almighty Kaneda Records soon.

NIGHTFOREST (again) is a new collaborative rework of ako's 'NIGHTFOREST', which was described as "...an addictively uncomfortable track, squelching its dastardly tentacles under your skin and into your mind, and squatting there, just waiting for you to go back and press play again. It calls to mind the most abrasive music of Aphex Twin or Clams Casino" by Max Pilley for Fresh on the Net.
