Like a bird in a cage doesn't know what it's missing, as it stares into the bright sky.
He never experienced wind on his wings, as his life was passing him by.
But he's sure that there's something.
Just beyond reaching.
He can feel it within his minds eye.
An ache beyond words.
A nagging deep feeling.
As he stares and longs for that sky.

Oh, there's no gain.
Without any pain.
Like a punch bag.
Locked away safe.
Oh, there's no way.
To get away.
When you deny.
All that's inside you.
All that's inside you denied.

Memory can be transformed by a meeting with someone who comes with a plan.
A plan that might keep you from opening boxes, discovering things by that chance.
Like a jigsaw with thousands of similar pieces.
Place them anyway that you choose.
But it's right or it isn't.
It fits or it doesn't.
It's easy to get the thing loose.

Oh, there's no gain.
Without any pain.
Like a punch bag.
Locked away safe.
Oh, there's no way.
To get away.
When you deny.
All that's inside you.
All that's inside you denied.

A pointless vendetta based on an opinion that flies in the face of the truth.
Hard to play anything, even Solitaire, without a full deck of cards to use.
The keeper of secrets.
Creator, benefactor.
A tinker, a tailor, a spy.
The transformation from a squab to a pigeon.
Held back by a bare faced lie.

Oh, there's no gain.
Without any pain.
Like a punch bag.
Locked away safe.
Oh, there's no way.
To get away.
When you deny.
All that's inside you.
All that's inside you denied.

El Sick Pop de Puerto Anónimo habla de los vicios humanos, de los caminos oscuros de la mente, de las obsesiones y de la esclavitud social. Le da voz a la naturaleza enferma del humano, incómoda pero real.

There was a time when boldness was the main characteristic of youth. Young people wanted to be different, and one of the most prominent ways to be different in my day was to listen to different styles of music. It was very striking among Generation Xers, even those who belonged to more radical urban tribes. I remember well, for example, the late Jeff Hanneman, the brilliant guitarist from Slayer, saying in an interview that he loved classical music. This kind of boldness is deeply rooted in most of the guys who lived through that era. And it's a very noticeable characteristic in most artists who came from those years. The late David Bowie, for instance, embraced electronic rhythms like jungle and drum ‘n’ bass on his incredible album Earthling. Iggy Pop said in a video that he loved the then-new branch of electronic music, a genre called industrial. And the world-famous cellist Yo-Yo Ma played a version of Metallica's “Nothing Else Matters”. The examples are numerous.

Unfortunately, I have witnessed the death of this kind of boldness in the younger generations. Young people enslave themselves to a few musical styles and refuse to listen to the universe of music that exists out there.

Overdrive is a musical project that seeks to explore different musical genres — rap, classical music, techno, punk, death metal, rock ‘n’ roll, new wave, new age, a cappella, you name it. The idea is to introduce new generations to the concepts of musical freedom, musical anarchy, musical curiosity, and bold listening (to new and old styles).

It's a one-man project with the help of countless talented collaborators. So don't be surprised to see tracks of completely different styles with equally diverse collaborators — people like a brilliant English glam singer in shiny pants singing about punks on a post-punk song; or a skilled German guitarist who plays rock riffs on a drum'n bass background; a Russian female singer with an incredibly powerful voice singing a 70s rock song; a young British rapper genius who loves electro; a Danish female singer and harpist who enjoys singing pop music on a Bach background; a French reggae singer who sings disco brilliantly; and many others.

Musical eclecticism is an expression of freedom. I love Sepultura and I love Frank Sinatra. And there isn't a single day that goes by when I don't listen to music by J. S. Bach and the German thrash metal band Destruction. I truly believe that different styles talk to each other when I make music and would love to pass on some of that thinking to my fellow young musicians.
