Hi and welcome to the 4th track by "Then She Reaches For The Gun". Huge thanks to all the artists involved. Once again its great to have new artists involved ! Its humbling that so many people want to be part of this madness : ) 

The project’s inspiration is two fold: Firstly its a homage to some of the stuff i grew up listening to like Mr. Bungle and other noisy bastards where anything goes, and often in quick fire succession and secondly it” a chance to work with an never ending stream of talented musicians that i have known for years either in real life Australia or via the Internet. Each track will no doubt change depending on who has sent me what. 

This track is titled This Misunderstanding Suggest Tenderness
 Its a phrase i saw in the comment section on one of Ilaria Boffa’s wonderful Sonopoetry, and from that Ilaria expanded and wrote the poem that opens and closes this work.

This Misunderstanding Suggest Tenderness features 

Ilaria Boffa - Poetry
Primaloop  - Drums/Percussion
Dani Kirby - Piano
Vartch - Voice
Holy ShitShow - Midi Strings
Axel Weiss - Guitar
TexMex Shaman - Talkbox
Chicago Word Brigade - Electronica/Keyboards
Martin Pozdrowicz - Sample Pad
Wüst - Electronica/Keyboards
Me -Midi Woodwinds/Noise/arrangement

If you would like to be part of this ongoing project

The process is simple, I collect a bunch of random recordings from people and then see what i can arrange from it. Nothing subtle here, just huge noisy fun : ) I am open to anyone that thinks they might like to be part of this mess. Drop me a message and i will send you my email. The only criteria is that i wont be using samples from TV/film/other music etc, so just original stuff played on instruments, field recordings, stupid drunk conversations etc. Cheers!

Just A Friend

Written in 2012. Some friends had recently divorced and a ‘for sale’ sign was outside their house and they were moving on. Very sad.
Lyrics 

Fading Smiles

When I wake up, I lie still
And wait to hear if you’re there at all
But it’s only me here still and you’re gone
And packing cases stand where our clothes used to lie
Discarded, abandoned by our love in the night
And champagne corks lie on windowsills 
But now they’ll be no more celebration

The sale board stands outside announcing
That we’ve failed and we’re moving on
Refugees from our disaster
Bitter, lost and worn
With fading smiles in empty rooms

When you wake up, how are you?
Do you regret this separation
And all this hurt and pain you put us through?
And all our angry words still echo off the walls
And every tear we’ve cried is now a sea beneath these floors
That I can sink down in
That I can drown in

Friends and family take their sides, hiding from the fallout
I’m just staring out of windows disbelieving that it’s over

The sale board stands outside announcing
That we’ve failed and we’re moving on
Refugees from our disaster,  bitter, lost and worn
With fading smiles in empty rooms

(Gotta stop looking back now, I’m moving on!)

Fading Smiles

Long Walk

Out of the Box November 2022
Sirens sing and bring sounds of inner and outer space...

Impulses

We're back and Peggy is saying Fuck that to going home with her psychopath husband!!!

The chorus explains her opinion perfectly 

No no
No I'm not going 
Not one step 
In his direction 
See I'm going
To a new destination 
Thats right
I'm out of here 
No hesitation
No no
No I'm not going 
Not one step 
In his direction 
See I'm going
To a new destination 
Thats right
I'm out of here 
No hesitation

join us for scene 7 where Peggy doesn't hesitate to break free from her situation. Who knows where she'll end up next. What would you do???
