Great rocker! That should shake the ballad-itis off for a while at least :) Loved the guitar sounds!

Right on! Sweet 90’s alternative sound. Nothing wrong with a little balladitis though :-P

Wow! Great guitar sound & playing. & drumming!

Fabulous driving guitars, vocals and vibe!

Since I've recently been fighting a pretty bad case of ballad-itis, I decided the antidote would be a much harder rocking number and this is the result. I think I'm cured? Kindly excuse my terrible French accent (and the fact that I'm pronouncing English words with a terrible French accent).

LYRICS:

Contretemps
Keep jumping to contusions 
Argument
I don’t wanna shout when you are near

Reprimand
Patience is such a virtue
Firebrand
I swear I’d never hurt you dear

You caress with a fist
You're the one I can't resist
But everything is a fight
Mend the left, cut the right

Your supply is in demand
I'm too stood up to even stand
Your embrace, a succor punch
Shame me twice, fool me (once)

You’re arguably great but I don’t want to fight
Weakness may be might
Armament
(Can’t shout enough to convey)

So arcuately shaped, Eros taking flight
Meek display to night
Permanent
(How I don't want to shout today)

So don’t hold back on my account
‘Cause that account is overdrawn
Now a negative amount
You went past go and got to gone

And with all due respect 
I do not respect you
You're the cause, I'm the effect
But don’t let that affect you

Current Candidates

Contretemps

Lover/maker of everything from Alt/Indie Rock, power pop, jangle, postpunk/new wave, punk, noise pop & shoegaze to darkwave, electronic indie & synthpop. Addicted to chime-y, grimy guitars. I really have no idea what genre I am. Perhaps you'll be kind enough to tell me. All lyrics posted with each track. I'm prone to remaking a single song in a variety of different genres. You've been warned.
