Love the 80s vibe and definitely get the early Depeche Mode feel. Nice hook in Chorus

"ts like Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin have been embraced by a bondage clad Depeche Mode." It actually is.

awesome bass groove and I'm really digging the 80s alternative inspired production. I also agree with the others who commented. there's an awesome depeche mode vibe in this song.  great vocals and great vibes. this is an awesome song. great collab. 

Excellent track, great vocals and guitars :)

So cool!! Love all these layers and countermelodies woth the guitar and vocals working so seamlessly together! Terrific vocals, lyrics, and killer groove!!!

like a new romantic revival.  but with a twist for today!   x

Very nice work and a perfectly successfull. 🥰 ***

That tone’s intro reminds me of Spider Man 94’ 

I worked my way through the various tracks I've written and recorded and selected 1 track from each of my shorter EPs and 2 from each album, starting with the earliest recording.  They are probably my favourites from each, but often don't match with the most played songs!  But this would be a starting point for a live setlist for me I think

The General Cyborg File

Snazzy Armageddon Pants

Inspired by the poem "Murió al amanecer" or "He died at Dawn" by Federico Garcia Lorca which ends:

"Four moons in the night
and one lonely tree.
On the point of a pin
my love spins."
_______________________________________________________________________


The great expanse
The final dance
I found the time
But she was gone

Fish go round and round
Jumping in the pond
Nature doesn't mind us or respond

And when we cry for mercy She laughs
We're falling off the point of a pin

So grant me time (grant these things)
To learn the finer things 
(to know in life)
I grab surprises
To drive me on

Joy and pleasures mount in drains
You and me and all the right ways
Round and round we go

Please
Please
Please...wait

Wait Please

The first of the Marc Freak EPs, Wraith combines the lofi pop of Guided by Voices, with a splattering of Bowie, and a dash of Nick Cave to arrive at a package of college style alt rock.  With the theatrics of Iggy Pop thrown in for good measure.

Wraith

Keys are key on this pop tune about a mad lover that shows restraint with excitement but no restraint with anger

A grey hair - I turned the other cheek
If I turn away for long enough I won't find what I won't seek
Be I wise or be I clown?
It even hurts a little bit when I am sitting down

CHORUS
Whoever you are I'm older than you think
I'm glad that you think otherwise - I'm truly tickled pink
Whoever you are I'll gladly take the praise
I'm slowly growing older but I hope its just a phase

Won my heart all torn and soiled
It has beaten and then burst more than anyone in this world
Have a laugh - give a smile
I'm an educated mind but mentality of a child

CHORUS

Tickled Pink

Polk Salad Annie

Once again, a great pleasure to work with IT! ( https://soundcloud.com/samantha-hubbs ) some more.  She has added such another (sultry) dimension to this (and I love it).  Its like Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin have been embraced by a bondage clad Depeche Mode.  Hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed recording it.

DOWN ON MY KNEES
[I know what you want to do
Let me play with you
You can look but you can't touch it
You must obey, you must submit
Bad boy, do as I say
I want you to crawl my way]

I'm lost in these echoing corridors
I'm caught in this maze
Searching out for someone to save me
So I don't rot in this place
Repeat / refresh
I hear the voice again

CHORUS
I'm down on my knees to pray
To give all my life away
I'm aware of my place
A punch in the face
Mistress I will do all that you say

I have no direction or ambition
And that's why I serve
All my life is a contradiction
I've been a slave since birth
Do this / do that
I hear the voice again
And I like it

CHORUS

[Such slender, so divine
Surrender, now you're mine]

Perfect Days W/ UK Man

Prolific musician, author, photographer and oddity.  With influences ranging from the lofi pop of Guided by Voices, the gothic melodrama of Nick Cave, the glam of Bowie and the nakedness of Iggy Pop - this is Marc Freak.  Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe.  An experiment in DIY and lofi.  The odd bum note here, the even odder bum note there.  But with art do we care?
