My Sweet Psychopath

Paper Over The Cracks

This Is The Last Time

It's The Hope That Kills You

(You Are) Much More Than You Know

I Let You Slip Away

This track is about being in a relationship with someone who is playing you along just telling you what you want to hear, hence the sarcastic 'Keep talking'

Keep Talking

This track is about waking up and realising someone you love is no longer there

Pictures Of You

This track is about someone being tough on the outside but vulnerable on the inside. 
It's all an exterior shell / front that they show to the world but really they are delicate and caring.

Made Of Glass

This track is self-explanatory really - A very odd place I visited. Can you work out where it is? There are clues in the track...

A Strange Place

Self Destruct is about the fact that our brain plays tricks on us. 
It keeps reminding us of the rare bad things we've said and done but not all the good things.

Julian Lines is a Guitarist / Songwriter from St Albans, UK.
He has been writing, producing and recording music for over 30 years and has formed and played guitar in several bands. 
Julian has been influenced by many bands over the years, he was heavily influenced by punk bands such as The Clash, The Buzzcocks, The Damned, SLF etc then a bit later post punk bands like The Icicle Works, The Psychedelic Furs, Blondie, Joy Divison and the great guitar sound of Johnny Marr and the Smiths. Not forgetting The Edge and U2.
His next major influence was the plethora of great 90’s bands such as Radiohead, The Stone Roses, The Charlatans, Oasis, Blur, Supergrass and New Order etc.  After that bands such as Editors, White Lies and The National also played their part in Julian’s song writing.  More recently bands such as Daughter, alt-J and Slowdive. 
So Julian’s sound has been crafted over many years but the sound is unmistakably Post punk, the tracks built around soaring guitar riffs.
