Painting by Francisco de Goya

________


oh mother night, made whole of me
 come restlessly endlessly in the sea
from the bottom out, give away to rising tides
that follow endlessly

gather wood beneath, and follow under 
Goetia
where all the angels sink
& where the demons breed

climb on aboard our ship, entity from the sea
something takes ahold of her, then takes ahold in me
and something takes ahold in her
then takes ahold of me

& the spirits will guide us all towards the new land

gather around the fire, kids
and cheer out for the elder god
gather around the fire, dogs
and bow down to the elder god
fly above the fire, birds
and sing out for the elder god
gather around the fire, kids
and cheer out for the elder god

Ghost of My Hero by Shirlinda is a haunting blend of rock, goth rock, darkwave, and dungeon synth, weaving ethereal melodies with gritty, driving beats. The album’s atmosphere is thick with mystery, drawing from classic hard rock riffs and dark ambient soundscapes. Shirlinda’s vocals, layered with both whisper-soft harmonies and powerful belts, float like ghostly apparitions, conveying both melancholy and resilience. Synth-heavy tracks evoke a retro-futuristic vibe, reminiscent of old-world gothic aesthetics but tinged with modern synthwave and dark electronica influences.

Lyrically, Ghost of My Hero explores themes of loss, solitude, and memory. Each track feels like an exploration of an ancient, shadowed landscape where haunting echoes and distant thunder provide the sonic backdrop. Guitar riffs and bass lines are intense and hypnotic, grounding the ethereal synth melodies and drawing listeners into a labyrinth of sound. The title track, "Ghost of My Hero," is a powerful anthem that combines Shirlinda’s storytelling with her unique blend of post-punk and industrial rock influences.

The album appeals to fans of underground music scenes, with tracks that range from pulsating dungeon synth compositions to brooding gothic ballads. It’s an album that lingers, like the memory of a distant figure whose presence remains in both light and shadow, offering both a tribute to and a reimagining of the darker realms of music.

   Em                   C                 D
I walk on this concrete pavement,

My feet blister as I talk.
         Em        C               D
Chasing lyrics for Band-Aids,
Em            C         D
Now I’m really torn.

Just need a way to get me
 C               
off this rocky land - don’t just

While my tears are tethering
Am                                             C
Oh, this blizzard has me in delusion,
Am                                               C                           D                
Just a thought, shall we drink the poison?

“Restless Memories”  by Luke

LANDS OF FOOLS 2024.

Music : Janne Hennie & Little Man
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

I wake up this morning
Had a good nights sleep
Get ready for the day
With good energy
The phone rings
It is you
Want something from me..

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty, can't you see?

I have to hide my power button
So you won't find it again
Will not answer when you call
Won't call you friend
The only times you make contact
Is when you want something from me..

I will use the rest of me
On what makes me feel good
What gives me energy
And don't suck it out
So don't call me anymore
You get nothing from me..

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty , can't you see?

You keep pushing my power button
You ain't nothing but a thief
Whenever I have some energy left
You suck it out of me
You never stop
You never give up
I'm almost empty, can't you see?

This song began with David, who wrote it on the guitar, synth, and bass over a programmed beat he created. He and Josh met more than two months ago and decided to do a collaboration, based on mutual enjoyment of and respect for each other's music. Dave had this song pretty much fleshed out, although it was still a skeleton when he offered it to Josh, who, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. 
  
Dave asked us all to compose our own parts for the song, so we all got to work right away doing that. We all realized that the first order of business would be to get a real beat on this, so Ken accomplished that task with some dynamic, Eastern inspired drums and percussion, which he plays throughout the song. JJ then stepped in and added his best eastern flute magic. Stephen was next with the perfect-vibe sitar you hear in the first two sections. 
  
Josh came next to add his five-string fretless bass to the mix, augmenting David's high, staccato bass with his deep, low tone bass. Then, for the third section, where David's Gilmore-esque guitar solo resides, Josh drops out, allowing for Dave's awesome bass playing in that section. However, Josh does come in again towards the end, in the final section, too. Also, in that section, Tez dropped an augmented, harmonic, electric fire, complementary guitar part. Then, David's frequent collaborator and friend Ron added some well blended, ethereal synth to the first section, too.
  
Once we had the instrumental parts pretty much laid down, we began to discuss getting a woman to sing on this, as David was inspired by The Great Gig in the Sky, by Pink Floyd, and we all agreed. Who we found to do it actually blew all of our minds. JJ, being familiar with her music, contacted Elpi first, and we were all lucky enough that she agreed to do it. Having heard Mediterranean music all her life in Greece, she tapped into what her husband said were her "ancient Greek roots," for her spectacular vocal performance. She finds all the modal notes and places them perfectly throughout her sections. 

  But before we were done, Mark came through with some really striking talking drum parts in the first two sections, too. Once we had everything in the can, David took over, both with some masterful editing and production, and with the balanced, dynamic mix. The mix was a formidable task, but he did it with considerable skill, also taking everyone's opinions into account, which is a talent in and of itself. When he was done with the mix, he turned it over to Stephen for the mastering, which the latter did to everyone's satisfaction, as always.
  
This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with David, Elpi, and Ron, and we all hope it's the first of many, as we welcome them into the EC family. They all have some wonderful music on their pages, too, so do yourself a favor and check out all of them, as well. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.
