Spectacle 1

Essential Listening - February 2019

New & hot: Alternative Rock

Rock alternativo

Burning skies iron lungs 
Extinctions have begun
Deadlines pass no choices left
Inhaled in every breath
Wildfires rage endlessly
 Diamonds falling into the sea
Silence is deafening 
When no one hears the screams
 
All you hold close
Won’t be for long
Like secret fears and exiles  
Flooding at your door
The stadiums are hospitals
The empty boarded stores
Atrocities come easily
When nothings on the shelves

 Now is the time for goodbyes 
  
The rest of us the best of us 
Made ignorant by force  
Divided by sciences 
Muted from discourse
The maligned hide from reality 
The benign by narrow inquiry
Turning a blind eye
Turning a blind eye

All we’ve learned
Soon will be gone
When waters rise and flow
The fields no longer grow
And no one to remember those
Who brought this upon themselves  
They sold the world for a pittance
Of what she was really worth

Now is the time for goodbyes 

If only one remains, no one digs their grave
If only one remains, no one digs their grave
When only one remains, no one digs their grave
When only one remains, no one digs their grave

Now is the time for goodbyes

5˚C

Parasol (Roland SH-01A solo)

Warming times and dimming light
A suffocating haze
Fills my breath with an emptiness
One last dirge to sing

Vapors beneath the earth will rise
The fury and the rage
Holds the heavens steals the wind
So let’s end the charade
   
I cannot escape the truth
There is no point of view
On my hands and knees I will crawl
Waiting for the thaw

The blood of nature falls from my hands
The sorrow the waste
Washes away the guilt I bear
The cancer the shame 

Of existence left behind
Blighted soil and poisoned skies
Answers have no comfort at all
Waiting for the thaw

Controverts prevail
Uncertainties for sale 

But, no one will see this through
A curse we laid upon our youth
So, shed a tear for what we have done
Waiting for the thaw

The providence we held
Just aspirations failed

Thaw

Transfiguration

Do what is meant to be done
Then leave it as it is
Open wounds have not closed
Since I remember when
Transfiguration settled
Nothing left to say
Words are meaningless
First casualty of fate

Because it’s over now
Everyone has left
Got here just in time
To see the party end

It’s impossible to know when it changed
No one seemed notice how many remained
Transfiguration settled
What is left say
Call out to emptiness
Call out in vain

My time is short
This stories done
Look deep within a mirror to find what was lost

Rendered Armor 

Ritual Howls - Alone Together

I can carry the weight for one more night
I can bear the horror one more time
My clothes lay on the bed in preparation
But the water doesn’t clean me anymore
Reflections disassociate, It’s time go again
Grab the keys and head out of the door

Lights fill my eyes, smoke is thick tonight
Faces a blur, movements turn
The moon and the bourbon
Gossip resolves
Five drinks on a napkin
And I am gone

Take a walk with me
See the bricks beneath our feet
It’s not too far to go by now

Night Out

En el fin de año de 1985, el país vivía
aun el terrible aroma de muerte y tristeza causado
por los terribles sismos que azotaron de manera tan
catastrófica a tanta gente. Pocas cosas causaban alguna alegría.
Una de ellas para mi, era el nacimiento de Década 2 y otra fundamental: el lanzamiento del disco de la banda mexicana Techno pop -Casino Shanghai-
Creación de mis maestros y amigos: 
Ulalume Zabala, Walter Schmidt, Humberto Alvarez y Carlos Robledo.
Está por demás hablar de la belleza y propuesta de este disco tan importante en la historia del rock y la música electrónica en México. Hoy 33 años después, el le última noche del 2018  en espera del año nuevo, y tremendamente abrazado por la nostalgia, quiero compartirles una versión muy en demo, e instrumental, pero algo épica de una de las piezas más conocidas de esta enorme agrupación.
Hoy quiero homenajear aquellos tiempos y a ésta gente fabulosa, que tanto aportó a mi vida. Lo hago con toda humildad y respeto, sin embargo he trabajado con mi arsenal más querido de sintetizadores y máquinas.
Que todos pasen una majestuosa noche, 
en espera de grandes éxitos y bendiciones para 2019.
Muchas Gracias.

Terrible Lie (zxz mix)

First track of 2019 and sixth track of the Surgical Masks (2019) EP.

I fear the coming of the Sun
Running away in the fields
I hold tightly to my gun
Bleeding out in the fields
Dropped to my knees
too tired to run
I turn my head to face the Sun
I drench this soil with sweat and blood
(I drench this soil with sweat and blood)

The Sun Is Coming

From the new Vehement Inversion album, 'Perspectives Of Deception'.

(King Theta)
Can you look at yourself in the mirror,
And honestly say that you've faced any fears?
Overlooking what needs to be nearer,
What's staring you right in the face
All that I needed was self-intervention
The sores keep on bleeding and I'd never mention
Keep on defeating myself, I'm obsessed now 
With getting the fuck out of state

I could leave this all behind,
This mess of a life
(An overgrown dream graveyard)
I could die in Sacramento,
Be the joke that burns in auburn,
Or get my shit and turn my back on you

(Brady Amour)
Intentions 
The ones you never hide 
They took you for a ride 
And made you feel alive 

I don’t know if I can make you love me 
Said too many lies now you never trust me 
I’m holding out, I'm holding on to something 
Broken heart I don’t wanna leave with nothing

(King Theta)
I could leave this all behind,
This mess of a life
(An overgrown dream graveyard)
I could die in Sacramento,
Be the joke that burns in auburn,
Or get my shit and turn my back on you

(Safehold)
I’m leaving for real this time
I don’t even want to talk more,
Just want to leave this place right here
And burn out like it’s nascar
Shawty in the back seat,
You can come on with me.
Bump a little backstreet
Bool on out like bigby.

All these locals wanna talk right now
I just hope you're not one
Too afraid to just leave this place and then run,
I wanna bool out in a fast car, nascar
Lil uzi I leave this place with no passport
I don’t want you to be where I’m not,
All I want is an end

(King Theta)
Can you let go of self medication?
Can you let go of our weak foundation?
Toxic vibrations, they seep through the pavement
This town holds a horrible fate
All that I needed was self-intervention
The sores keep on bleeding and I'd never mention
Keep on defeating myself, I'm obsessed now 
With getting the fuck out of state

Overgrown Dream Graveyard (ft. Brady Amour and safehold)

A sharp remark, a stupid joke
I'm sick of you, but I'll laugh it off
What's the point of this masquarade
You know very well that I'd love to hate
You but that's not what I'm supposed to do
No, that's not what I'm supposed to do
I'm supposed to love you
You treat me worse than anyone else
But you are close, so no one ever cares
Love is meant to be unconditional
So shut your mouth now and let your own
Doubts consume you whole
While you're trying to stitch up this hole
But I have had enough of you
I've closed myself in my small room

And I'll never let you in
You'll just shit in every corner
And then pretend that it was all my fault
Stop telling me
That i could be a little warmer
I'm getting on much better when I'm cold


Knocking's getting louder
And now you're trying to break in
But till the moment i allow it
You're never getting in
Stop screaming all your lungs 
Off you cannot make me care
You'll never get to my heart
'Cause it isn't even there
I've put it in a lockbox
And got rid of the key
So no one gets to hurt it
Not even if it's me
And maybe I will die alone
And maybe after I am gone
Maybe you will understand
Maybe world is fair

But I'll never let you in
You'll just shit in every corner
And then pretend that it was all my fault
Stop telling me
That i could be a little warmer
I'm getting on much better when I'm cold

I'll never let you in
No, I won't ever let you in

This is the last goodbye
Cause I am out of time
Out of breath and out of things to care about
It's far too late to cry
Too late to ask me why
And to apologize

I'll never let you in
You'll just shit in every corner
And then pretend that it was all my fault
Stop telling me
That i could be a little warmer
I'm getting on much better when I'm

But I'll never let you in
You'll just shit in every corner
And then pretend that it was all my fault
Stop telling me
That i could be a little warmer
I'm getting on much better when I'm cold
Getting on much better when I'm cold

When I'm cold

Acústico C. Ex. Radio

Más leve que el aire [Bucéfalo→ Acústico Canal Extremadura Radio]

Dredged from the bottom of a dead man’s gullet
Carved into the ugliest down-and-out
You’ll live with the smell in the heart of winter
Pass me in the summer, and you’ll wanna leave town
 
Poked by the sticks of a children’s choir
Coughed up something awful: they’ll never sing again
Bathed in the river, got a rash that feels like fire
All the fish decide that they’re amphibians
 
I know when I’ve finally outstayed my welcome
Stocks in pitchforks go through the roof
Weathermen have started using my name
They’d rather have a hurricane than see my face
 
In this ugly world I feel like a model
I’ve been the worst me that I can be
I’d rather have a purpose than having sod all
Even if it’s turning stomachs in the streets
 
You’ve walked by me with your mind on salad spoons
Spice racks, and brand new bidets
My black eyes rained down a monsoon
Right upon your godforsaken gilded cage
 
You set fire to me, but my diseases
Will take to the air like a pestilent fog
Try and hold your breath, there’s no avoiding
I’ll leave you like a ragged, wretched, plague-bitten dog

Unicorn Partisans Live in Leipzig - first concert

no samples
prod. 1080p dreams

lyrics:

doctors please don't discharge me
I don't wanna fucking leave
I've been here forever but I'm still not missing home
I eat for free
the staff treats me like I'm some royalty
feeding me drugs while I sit on a high throne 
all the patients here are awfully friendly
I like the way they always compliment me
no fear of judgment cause they're all fucked up like me
the outside world's too fucking scary 
real life burdens are too much to carry 
just keep me locked in here and throw away the key
I'm becoming the psych ward van wilder 
it's pathetic that I've been here for this long
I'm becoming the psych ward van wilder 
I'm still here but all my peers have long since moved on
nurses please sedate me
so I can have sweet dreams
like last night I dreamt that I had built a time machine
I traveled back to Y2K 
and saw blink 182 play
the mark, tom, and travis show
matt's just the coffee boy
all the drama here is so exciting
in the hallways a schizo is fighting with a security guard
it's so disorderly
all the noise forced me to get out of my bed
interaction helped me get out of my head
even if a lot of it was super weird
and there were times when I got sad
but after all the good times I had
I thought maybe life's not that bad
memories I won't forget soon
like that one night in the day room
cracking jokes and laughing so hard that we cried
I'm becoming the psych ward van wilder
it's pathetic that I've been here for this long
I'm becoming the psych ward van wilder
I'm still here but all my peers have long since moved on
yeah they've moved onto bigger and better things
I never wanna see the outside world again
I never wanna see the outside world again
I could not care less if I never saw it again

Lyrics:

All I want is to feel a bit
We could fall in love
You could slit my wrist
I could tell you now that they both 'gon feel the same

I've been wide awake
I've been blacking out
I've been locked away
Could you let me out?
Cause I've grown so tired of existing in this cage

I remember when I used to feel
(It was beautiful)
But I guess that's something you can steal
(And I lost it all)
Now nothing seems to feel too real
(Unbelievable)
What have I been running from?
How did I become so numb?

I'm so numb
I give up
What have I been running from?
How did I become so numb?

All I want is a night of sleep
You could knock me out
I could rest in peace
I don't mind if I get to close my eyes

I've been day to day
I've been dying slow
If you find a way
Could you let me know?
My confusion no longer comes as a surprise

I remember when I used to feel
(It was beautiful)
But I guess that's something you can steal
(And I lost it all)
Now nothing seems to feel too real
(Unbelievable)
What have I been running from?
How did I become so numb?

I'm so numb
I give up
What have I been running from?
How did I become so numb?

All I want is to feel a bit
You could knock me out
You could slit my wrist

I'm so numb
I give up
What have I been running from?
How did I become so numb?

S01E05 - Skating (a ska tribute to 90's skate punk)

A Dream of Fire

Here what’s left behind
The stillness
And a memory or two
Misfortune’s call
The necessity of will

Change of scene a new day
Don’t shiver, I know what to do
Breath in deep a dream of fire
Then let it go

But take it in slowly
Take it in alive

They put the dream in my arm?
Who would take it that far?
Then never ask if it’s wrong
Or know who they are
They put the dream in my arm?

Here is what we can find
The answers
For a question or two
A chance to start again
When wind is falling soon

But, watch for pins and needles
Watch them every time

They put the dream in my arm?
Who would take it that far?
Then never ask if it’s wrong
Or know who they are
They put the dream in my arm?
