We are back! (kinda)

https://linktr.ee/NightGaunts

This tune is from an EP we've been working on since 2020 - it really should be finished as the songs are written and it is mostly all recorded too. But for now enjoy this BANGER. It is kinda of the OG NG era of They'll Kill Us All and what not.

PEACE & LOVE,
NG
lyrics
DECIDED THAT I’M BACK
I WENT ROUND THAT TRACK
I FELL FLAT
TO THE MAT
MY BODY DOESN’T MATTER
WOAH OH OH
SAVE MYSELF FOR SATURDAY
WOAH OH OH OHH
GET FUCKED UP ON FRIDAY ANYWAY TOO LATE

WE’LL CHASE THE SUN AWAY
BEFORE OUR DYING DAYS
TAKE MY HAND AND RUN
WE’LL CHASE THE SETTING SUN

DECIDED THAT I’M GONE
I KNOW WHAT I DID WRONG
I WENT OUT TO FIND OUT
THAT NOTHING EVER MATTERS
WOAH OH OH
SAVE MYSELF FOR SATURDAY
WOAH OH OH OHH
GET FUCKED UP ON FRIDAY ANYWAY TOO LATE
ONLY WAY TOO LATE

WE’LL CHASE THE SUN AWAY
BEFORE OUR DYING DAYS
TAKE MY HAND AND RUN
WE’LL CHASE THE SETTING SUN

TAKE MY HAND AND RUN
WE’LL CHASE THE SETTING SUN

WE’LL CHASE THE SUN AWAY
BEFORE OUR DYING DAYS
TAKE MY HAND AND RUN
WE’LL CHASE THE SETTING SUN
CHASE THE SETTING SUN
CHASE THE SETTING SUN
WE’LL CHASE THE SETTING SUN

FUCKER!

An incomplete cover of The Stupid Stupid Henchmen feat. MC Devlin done with the NG MIDI style! Maybe one day I'll finish it.... probs not though.

ENJOY!

Make sure to check out The Mad Conductor and The Stupid Stupid Henchmen.

It Really Makes Me Wonder

Another demo from the "3am Sessions". I love this song to bits. One day it'll be played well haha. Until then enjoy!

The better man said don't kill the man
But it's the bad man who is the one killing man
And that's the man who's sitting up top 
He's the boss, it's wrong it's all mixed up

Toxic lotion lathered on thick
Jump into the ocean to avoid getting sick
Now stop and think but not for too long 
cause it'll mess with your head and that's what they want

I'll pass the trees
Until I turn green
I'll pass the tress 
Until I turn green
I'll sail in the breeze and let wind blow me
to all the places that i wanna be	 

Woah Oh
Am I really trying?
Woah Oh
If I said yes well I'd be lying

Now this is the point where you turn your night around
Flip it upside down please oh please don't frown
Because in the end you know we're all gonna die so do yourself a favour and let yourself smile

Lyrics:

Awwwwwwwwwww! Yeah!

Sweaty from the heat baby NYC!
In a park full foreigners
Treading off the beat
Feeling oh so small looking up at these walls
We gave power to kids who can destroy the world
Now they sit in offices
Behind desks in grey
I can not say they're evil, man
They're just playing the game
And it’s the game we've gotta play
We all make our own path
You've gotta do the math 
Survival… it's just for a laugh

Don’t you go wasting it
Oh put it to the test 
Get out on your own and try to do your best!
Don’t you go wasting it
Put it to the test 
Don't let these motherfuckers get you down!

Ooo we can always take it back
Oh we can always take it
Back to days when we had 8 dollars
Q-tip was on the deck
Brooklyn's Tuesday night

So little money in my pocket
What to do?
I never went to Uni
Will I ever make it through?
To have music as a goal
Is scary to me
Because every time I look around I think oh my god
I’ve gotta save money
Gotta go back on tour
I’ve gotta hang out with my friends
I gotta be a lover
I’ve gotta help my girlfriend more than anything in the world but
Oh what am I ever gonna do?

8 Dollars

Brand new album "Conversations With Creation" by Kiwi Party Punks, Night Gaunts. Rated by Carl Sagan as "An album among BILLIONS upon BILLIONS"

Hello Gaunties! We did it! We finally finished the album! The 3 years it took to make was filled with wild ups and downs - self doubt and the always fun total loss of perspective every few months. There were tough times where it was difficult to maintain positivity but the moments of “This is the best fucking song ever!!” during the 3am dance sessions in my studio were what we lived for… oh and all the love coming from you all telling us to “never stop!” .. Thank you, this is for you! 


PEACE &amp; THANKS 


THIS IS THE NG SOUND, TURN IT UP LOUD AND GET THE FUCK DOWN!

Trippin’ In The Basement

Demo vocal takes on a beat we made from Judge Dread's "Mind The Doors". Anty of The Bennies will likely be throwing down a verse in the future too. This is just for fun!!

Mind Jah Doors (Demo)

Night Gaunts cover of the mighty Days N Daze song Post Party Depression. Recorded in a couple days a week before we released the Night Gaunts / Days N Daze Split.

LYRICS:

So I'm gonna I'm gonna go far
and I never have to worry about driving the car
My path is laid out though it's riddled with bombs
All set to go off under the detonators thumb
Who is the illusive one who calls the shots? 
Some ghost up above or his henchmen cops?
I'm feelin' kinda stressed and a little paranoid 
So i'll turn off my alarm and ignore the world

Will you be be be be all you can be
Will you see see see see all you can see
Will you do, will you do that for me?
Or will run away from your destiny!

Never let go!
You can do it!
Fight the fear!
That we all live with!

Look in my eyes!
We are human!
Not divided bodies on an island!

I can see it!
You can feel it!
We are all here and aware!
Let them hear it!

Never let go!
You can do it!
Don’t give in!

Tongue tied I'm hiding outta sight
Cause I can't seem to break up this pattern of life
It’s held me together using sticks and twine
Arranged into shapes which can chemically bind 
I'm deep down in a fractal jungle
Embedded in my nature is to follow and stumble
Amongst the under growth we're a powerful species
Journey the adventure on how to break free

Will you be be be be all you can be
Will you see see see see all you can see
Will you do, will you do that for me?
Or will run away from your destiny!

Never let go!
You can do it!
Fight the fear!
That we all live with!

Look in my eyes!
We are human!
Not divided bodies on an island!

I can see it!
You can feel it!
We are all here and aware!
Let them hear it!

Never let go!
You can do it!
Don’t give in!

Oh when you break
Oh can you tell me
What it takes let go of these ties that bind me

Of these ties that bind me
Of these ties that bind me

Never let go!
You can do it!
Fight the fear!
That we all live with!

Look in my eyes!
We are human!
Not divided bodies on an island!

I can see it!
You can feel it!
We are all here and aware!
Let them hear it!

Never let go!
You can do it!
Don’t give in!

The TWO TONE DEATH WAVE was made to dance to. I love to dance and I make what I love. The lyrics are silly and detail my single-life self, my horny self, the self that was challenged after a break and my hip-hop self. A lot of this was improvised stoned as fuck and later refined... a bit. The TTDW is made to let ya thoughts go and bounce to the riddim. 

This is one side of myself. The other can be found on Swimming Through The Milky Way <3

Lyrics:

Money money money that’s all they think about
Yeah making more money that’s all that really counts
Churning out pop rap crap
Well I have my doubts

It won’t last
NO
It won’t last

Cause the record companies they will all fall down
And we’re gonna be the ones with the new sound
So come on get together and sing this song tonight

We’ll sing all night
We’ll sing all night
Alright!

When it all comes down to this
Yeah, I’m gonna be the one helping kids
And not these auto-tuned fools with no content

It brings me down
It really brings me down

Cause all they ever do is talk about
Money, girls and cars
To provide no help
And it’s all completely un-relatable to the rest of the world

Well, who ya tryna help?
And what ya tryna do?
It’s a false reality I hear spoken from you

I love you this and I love you that	 
Well it makes no sense and you’re outta ya depth

Cause you don’t care at all
Sucking out their self esteem
And misleading their dreams
Like you need it to live
Like you need it to breathe
Well I’ve cure so sing a long with me
Sing!

We won't 
Let them take control
Let them take control
So let it be known
We won't let them take control
So let it be known
Known!
There's gonna be a fire that they can't put out tonight

Money money money that’s all they think about
Yeah making more money that’s all that really counts
Churning out pop rap crap
Well I have my doubts

It won’t last
NO
It won’t last

Cause the record companies they will all fall down
And we’re gonna be the ones with the new sound
So come on get together and sing this song tonight

We’ll sing all night
We’ll sing all night
Alright!


Money is king to provide high living 
Three aeroplanes if you keep on giving
They'll take what and they want and they'll leave the rest behind
Am I making this up and do they think we're blind?
No of course not! They'll just put you in jail 
for trying to build an industry that will not fail
Where artists get the profits and the underground thrives
Fuck the mainstream the money hungry empires

Who ya tryna help?
What ya tryna do?
It’s a false reality I hear spoken from you

I love you this and I love you that	 
Well, It makes no sense you lying rat

Cause you don't care at all
You're wanting us to fall and not take control
Like you need it to live
Like you need it to breathe
Well your days are numbered
And your seats are cheap
Sing!

We won't 
Let them take control
Let them take control
So let it be known
We won't let them take control
So let it be known
Known!
There's gonna be a fire that they can't put out tonight

[We won't!]

Can't put it out
Can't put it out, no!
Can't put it out
Can't put it out, no!
Can't put it out
Can't put it out tonight

They can't put it
They can't put it out
No
They can't put it out

Money money money that’s all they think about
Yeah making more money that’s all that really counts
Churning out pop rap crap
Well I have my doubts

It won’t last
NO
It won’t last

Cause the record companies they will all fall down
And we’re gonna be the ones with the new sound
So come on get together and sing this song tonight

We'll sing all night
We'll sing all night
Alright!

Lyrics:

Ratata tat tat
Hey man where you at?
Your head was spinning round like a yo yo on crack
Run from the door when the dogs attack 
It ain't safe to make a sale if you leave with a scratch

I've been long gone in a fish filled aquarium
5 second memories and a handkerchief to blow on 
When it boils down to this well it don't mean shit
So don't you ever tease me with an unfulfilled wish 

Show me what you've got and i'll give it a shot
And even if I miss i'll add it to the list
Practice makes perfect and you would deserve it
It's just concentration that leads us to a purpose

Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
It'll leave me queasy
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me

Mighty ambition sprayed all over
From top of the class to living on a sofa
It's not that bad. I've been telling lies
But i'll connect the circuit by cutting wires

I've been
I've been
I've been

Shot down abandon town
Let me know when the devil delivers my crown
I'v been
Shot down abandon town
Let me know when the devil delivers my crown
I've been
Shot down abandon town
So let me know every time the devil's hanging around

Uh Oh
Lemme Know
Uh Oh
Take it slow

As the night unfolds so does my jet plane 
origami speech bubbles erupt into flames
from the ghastly swells, pins and needles surface 
scratchy, uncomfortable tingly burning
What was that you said? I said blah blah blah
The man's got it coming
And the devil's got us running
Can't you see 'em jumping
Weak knees smashed; broken.
It won't long till his movie starts showing

Projected onto canvas and sold off as art
It's depressed to know it doesn't come from the heart
I'm changing what was written. 
Rearrange the kitchen.
Pack your bags if you are coming with me

Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
It'll leave me queasy
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me

Shot down abandon town
Let me know when the devil delivers my crown
I'v been
Shot down abandon town
Let me know when the devil delivers my crown
I've been
Shot down abandon town
So let me know every time the devil's hanging around

Uh Oh
Lemme Know
Uh Oh
Take it sloooooooww
HA HA
Feelin' 'igggggghhhh

Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
It'll leave me queasy
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me
Don't you ever tease me

The man's got it coming
And the devil's got us runnin'
The man's got it coming
And the devil's got us…

OHHHHH!

Lyrics:

Welcome to the Pink Lagoon
We're glad you made it oh so soon
Relax yourself unwind the time 
Comfort your soul and ease your mind
It's time to chill, lay down ya head
Vanilla scents the air and says
I'll take you to a place so beautiful you'll loose yourself again

Flowers bursting into colour
Your body follows rediscovers
a piece of life a familiar touch
that feeling of love that warms you up
It's peace it's bliss and this is it
A place where you feel magnificent
Free from clutter free from fear
With no restraints you bathe eternally aware that..

Love is what we need to live
It's what we need to live
So keep on giving it
So keep on giving it
And when you take your final breath
When you take your final breath
The world will whisper gently that you just found out what it means to live

So long from the Pink Lagoon
We're glad you're leaving feeling true
to yourself, without a doubt 
you're the best we've had the pleasure to help
along with every soul entwined 
you've unveil the mask that kept you blind
Spread the word if you see fit 
you'll do what you do and it's perfect

Oh do you feel that vibe?
It's the pulse of the hive buzzing inside your cluttered drifting timeless mind
neurons fire you're alive
Hallucinogens drip from her lips
with just one kiss I fall into the abyss 
I must confess I'm an intoxicated mess
To relieve the stress I make music to express that..

Love is what we need to live
It's what we need to live
So keep on giving it
So keep on giving it
And when you take your final breath
When you take your final breath
The world will whisper gently that you just found out what it means to live

"The Alien"

"The final frontier is unlimited expansion. 

Within is not limited but rather infinite.

Rotate an 8 and you'll see the racetrack. Round and round with no distinction no one is winning without start or finish. 

No point of reference on how things are going, keep chugging along with out signs of slowing or knowing. 

To judge your progress within the universe is ridiculous so make do with what you have and try your best with everything.
 
Explore all ways of thinking religious, nihilistic spiritual and artistic there are lessons to be learnt and points of views to come across that'll help you discover what it means to be lost.

'Cause lost is what we are selfish and confused and if anyone tells you differently it's further poof that they're just as twisted as you.

Tell strangers how you feel as they won't care anyway but it feels good to let it out. 
You keep too much in. Release it all. Regardless of situation or who might be afraid
Fear builds strength once you learn how to deal with it and although I'm still struggling my smile has grown wider.

We've all been told acting any other way than "good" is out of line.

Don't hold yourself in order.

Scramble other people's protective shields with your own ideas and fantastical spiels.
 
Always be weird though I hope you're not crazy. 

Fuck it who am I kidding i'm the most crazy I've ever been and it feels good"

Lyrics:

Yo now we're back
With your new favorite track and
Gettin' ready to attack with the music that you've lacked
Yeah it's been a lil while but we'll still make ya smile
Rippin' through ya body with that Night Gaunts style

I've been outta action, lacking in passion
Drained through and through and I hadn't a clue
Progress was slow but now I'm unleashing
the beast within once again is breathing

So come and get me now
So come and get me now

Smash through the barrier
The body is the carrier
To show you things that you've never seen before
Never ever never ever never ever ever seen before

Gone in flash that second's never coming back
Shifting with the weather now I'm lighter than a feather
Like water off a duck no one really gives a fuck
It's just the battle within that we're all trying to win

Close up shop and wait for the beat to drop
Ya never saw it coming till lying down looking up
Another year of thinking has got me closer to myself
But am I everyone else? You know I laugh out loud

So come and get me now
So come and get me now

Smash through the barrier
The body is the carrier
To show you things that you've never seen before
Never ever never ever never ever ever seen before

Torn between ideas I evaluate my path
Towards the center of being shifting gears to get past
The negative vibes where failure resides
Smash them up and let the positive thrive

So come and get me now
So come and get me now
So come and get me now
So come and get me now

You can do anything you want to!
