The Writing On The Wall

The Writing on the Wall

I Want It All

Triphoppin

I went into the church the other day and i knelt down at the back of Church and began to pray to God to help me with a few problems that were out of my control, i prayed for the strength to except the things i cannot change, to change the things i can and for the wisdom to known the difference. I prayed for my Children for happiness for them and their children and for forgiveness for all those who need it. I also prayed for the Lord to shine his light on all the dark places in the world that are at War, for peace and help for all the starving people in  the world. I hope he was listening. 
As i prayed this song came to me, its not a very serious song but i think it has a great soul. :-)

Another track where I get to write melody and lyrics over Kris Bolin's music and expert production!  Check out his band The Bawl Slant - ( @bawl-slant)

Music and Production - Kris Bolin 
Lyrics and melody - Marc Freak

THE AFTERLIFE IS LIES
Every night I wake up in a sweat
Every night I feel the cold and wet
End of the night it seems like the best yet

CHORUS
Think that I'm crazy
Tell me that the afterlife is lies
When I feel the shaking of your thighs
Think I'm demented
Do I decry your thoughts and faith
Well I am straddled by a wraith

The spectre's touch will bring me to the end
The benefits are better then a friend
The spectre's touch that i will not defend against

CHORUS

The Afterlife Is Lies (with Kris Bolin)

Another big thanks to Kris Bolin for his music and expert production! Check out his band The Bawl Slant - ( @bawl-slant)

Music and Production - Kris Bolin
Lyrics and melody - Marc Freak

I THINK I'VE HAD A FUNNY TURN

CHORUS
I think I've had a funny turn
A mental disconnect
A blip that few would come to expect
So zip it
Think I've had a funny turn

Smile - dribble 
What's the matter with my cerebral matter
Broken overdrive
Distant vision
Pass the pint I'm on a mission
Fanboy photo autographs

CHORUS

Broken battered
There's nothing in the past that matters
Vomit putrid
Same my face
Dickie ticker
Watch me I'm a window licker
Tasting germs and times of old

CHORUS

I Think I've Had a Funny Turn (with Kris Bolin)

One of my favorite songs is "The Job That Ate My Brain" by the Ramones. This song has nothing in common with that one, except that the process of making it could be described as "The Song That Ate My Brain." It took far too long to create, and as usual, there's no way of knowing if it was worth it or not. The intro is a remnant from a song written in 2022, but now “Spy Film” is complete in its entirety. It will be available on other platforms in June. Thanks in advance for everyone who takes a moment to check it out. /TQB

Spy Film

Three chord and four words: I fucking hate diplomacy. This song is inspired by daily life small talk and idiomatic expressions, that sound super ironic to my ears. I wish I could start conversations without diplomacy, but most people think I'm rude, when I just say what I really feel. This song makes you want to raise the roof after a bad day, I promise. It's time to quit the bullshit bingo.

Big thanks to Robert, Maik and Patrick from JaaRi who gave that song the special punk rock energy. Same for John for his powerful vocal takes, and Kathi for the backing vocals. I wish I could be with you in a rehearsal room and shout it out! Should be great fun :)

==== LYRICS ====

I like the colour of your dress
You are embroidered with success
It's not a problem, it's a challenge
No impendiment, we can't manage

Oh thanks, I'm doing fine
You make things fall in line!

I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY
WHY DO YOU HIDE THE TRUTH FROM ME?
LET IT OUT - HEY!
LET IT OUT - HEY!
SHOUT IT OUT - HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY!
I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY

Oh what a nice sunshiny day
I apologise for my delay
Oh thanks, that's sweet of you
You know things nobody else knew

No word left unspoken
My door is always open!

I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY
WHY DO YOU HIDE THE TRUTH FROM ME?
LET IT OUT - HEY!
LET IT OUT - HEY!
SHOUT IT OUT - HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY!
I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY

I should have known right from the start
Saying things straight from the heart
Causes relationships to bloom. Or doom. 
However.

HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! 
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! 

I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY
WHY DO YOU HIDE THE TRUTH FROM ME?
LET IT OUT - HEY!
LET IT OUT - HEY!
SHOUT IT OUT - HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY!
I FUCKING HATE DIPLOMACY

Yeah.

Apocalypse

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?
