July 2025 - SNAGGLETOOTH- Album by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Snaggletooth is a raw and poetic concept album from Phil Dutton & Les Corlett, weaving ten vivid tracks into a cinematic journey through broken streets, haunted memories, and defiant hope.

From taxi rides through fractured lives to whispers in the night and burning bridges, each song brings its own character, story, and edge. The sound blends gritty indie rock with acoustic reflections and dark folk storytelling, capturing the cracks in modern life with brutal honesty and flashes of beauty.

This album isn’t background music—it’s a front-row seat to the lives we don’t always see.

🎧 Best experienced loud, late, and with lyrics close at hand.

Tracks include:
This Is My Beginning, Stevie Drove a Taxi, The Puppeteers, Beautiful, Desolation Boulevard, and more.

💬 Let us know which one hits you hardest. Thanks for listening and supporting independent music.

let there be light

For this song I was trying to write something with some 70’s sounding wah-wah guitar and originally wanted some dance/disco feel to the track. I ended up adding a brass section when I needed a ‘hook’ for the song. This reminded me a quite a bit of those Herb Alpert records from the 60’s which I hope explains the title. The result ended up a lot less disco but I hope makes for an interesting listen perhaps!

Waiting For Alpert

Original Song
by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Lyrics
She's been pulling at my strings,
She speaks the words that lay me low,
I'm been living on borrowed time,
She's the only love I've ever known,

So she tells me,
She doesn't love me anymore.

Au revoir, mon amour,
Au revoir, mon amour.

I went through, through the motions,
Forgot what, what was real,
I took her, took her for granted,
I lost my, my sex appeal.

So she told me,
She doesn't love me anymore.

Au revoir, mon amour,
Au revoir, mon amour.

For the rest of the night,
I'm broken and blue,
For the rest of my life,
There'll only be you.

So she told me,
She doesn't love me anymore.

Au revoir, mon amour,
Au revoir, mon amour.

You know when it's over,
It's finished and done.
You know you'll look back,
And smile, you're the lucky one

So she told me,
She doesn't love me anymore.

Au revoir, mon amour,
Au revoir, mon amour.

AU REVOIR, MON AMOUR

Lyrics
I've never had sugar that,
Tasted as sweet,
As the tears that are rollin',
Down your cheeks.
Your tales filled with sorrow,
You've been sleepin' all day.
When the devil comes a knockin',
Will you run or stay?
To look him the eye,
With a smile on your face.
You're another number,
Just to savour the taste.

GUITAR BREAK

Your a man of easy virtue,
With your feelin's  growin' cold.
You'll bight the hand that feeds you,
And you sell your secrets whole.
You've been payin' off St Peter,
Since Paul he flew away.
Slipping even deeper,
Down on your knees you pray.

You fled The Big Easy,
With your tail between your legs.
Hopin' that tomorrow comes,
You'll lie, steal and beg.
For a promise of redemption,
When you might have a choice.
But you feel your heart grow heavy,
As you remember her voice.
She said that she loved you,
But you threw it all away.
Darkness falls upon you,
You've been sleepin' all day.

SUGAR

Молодой человек, разрываемый чувством вины и преследуемый призраками прошлого, бежит от себя сквозь девять этажей кошмаров, сталкиваясь с демонами своих поступков, пока звонок любимой не ставит перед выбором: шагнуть в пустоту или найти свет в темноте собственной жизни.

                         🎼ТАНЯ🎶

(Куплет 1)
Дверь хлопнула — шаг в пустоту.
На плечах — вся тяжесть мира.
Дождь стучит, как будто совесть.
В каждом капле — "Ты не достоин".
Таня ждет, но я не знаю.
Где конец, где начало...
Лестница вверх — девять ран.
Каждый этаж — мой провал.

(Припев)
Я лезу сквозь тень и лёд.
Сквозь голоса, что в голове живут.
"Ты неудачник!" — кричит стена.
Но в сердце свечка — Таня одна.
Если я выживу, то только ради неё.
Сквозь ад и холод, сквозь ложь и разлад.
Один шаг вверх — и снова бегу.
Чтоб на крыше крикнуть: "Я всё ещё живу!"

(Куплет 2)
Второй этаж — семья в трауре.
"Ты убил её!" — кричит брат.
Третий — студенты с презрением.
"Урод!" — и смех, как удар.
На четвёртом — вода до колен.
Пятый — дипломы, смех, обман...
Шестой — вода, отец в слезах:
"Где ты был, когда она звала нас?"

(Припев)
Я лезу сквозь тень и лёд.
Сквозь голоса, что в голове живут.
"Ты неудачник!" — кричит стена.
Но в сердце свечка — Таня одна.
Если я выживу, то только ради неё.
Сквозь ад и холод, сквозь ложь и разлад.
Один шаг вверх — и снова бегу.
Чтоб на крыше крикнуть: "Я всё ещё живу!"

(Бридж)
Восьмой этаж — Таня в свете.
Её смех, как магнит.
Но полиция позади.
А в руках — огонь горит.
Девятый — тень под ногой.
Кредиторы, грязь, долг...
"Ты меня не любишь?" — её шепот.
И замок, что не дрогнет.

(Финал)
Я бью камнем — замок трещит.
Тень ползёт, но я не сдамся.
На крыше луна — как маяк.
А в трубке её: "Жду тебя!"
— "Жди... Я приду, я обещаю..."
Лампа погасла — но сердце не гаснет.
Лестница вниз, но не в отчаянье —
В объятия Тани, в её прощенье.

(Тихо, на выдохе)
Этажи... Высота...
Я жив, потому что она ждёт меня.

SAMAD - ТАНЯ

Original Song

Lyrics

I longed for the chase,
I relished the catch.
I knew that some day,
That I'd meet my match.

I looked for the reasons,
That keep me here.
Stripped of the doubt,
That she's drawing near.

I'm not bothered,
I don't really care.
How long it takes,
Till she's standing there.

How could I know,
If it was all true?
Stumbling blindly,
Till she came into view.

I can't feel my fingers and toes and,
I am frozen, slowly decomposin'.
All the dreams and the wishes I've made,
Feelin' shaken, While my heart starts to break.

I waited in silence,
Through the seasons and the rain.
Each day that passed,
Was never in vain.

The signs were so subtle,
But steady and clear.
Like soft-spoken words,
Only hearts could hear.

No rush in my steps,
No fear in my mind.
I knew that I was close,
To what I would find.

I followed the pull,
Wherever it led.
With thoughts of her smile,
Inside of my head.

I can't feel my fingers and toes and,
I am frozen, slowly decomposin'.
All the dreams and the wishes I've made,
Feelin' shaken, While my heart starts break.

Some days felt hollow,
Like time stood still.
But I held my ground,
Through strength of will.

The picture kept forming,
Though never complete.
Each moment a brushstroke,
Till we finally meet.

Now hope has a shape,
And dreams start to blend.
With each passing thought,
I near the end.

And if she's a myth,
A trick of the light
I'd still chase the echo,
Deep into the night.

I can't feel my fingers and toes and,
I am frozen, slowly decomposin'.
All the dreams and the wishes I've made,
Feelin' shaken, While my heart starts break.

The Chase

THE CHASE

Original Song
by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Lyrics

I've watched the fallen,
Begin to rise.
I searched for truth,
Hidden in their lies.
But where does it get me?
Does anybody know?
They've salted the earth,
So nothing ever grows.

I'm wistfully dreaming,
Of days that tasted sweet.
Innocence illuminated,
Every time she'd speak.
She had a way of telling stories,
That kept us warm there in the dark.
She always had a good one,
That would always cause a spark.
A flame of pure imagination,
We sing of love and loss.
At any cost.

APRIL

Original Song
by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Lyrics

I found my style in my 20's,
Black as the mood,
That I'm feelin' in.
If they catch up to me,
I'll meet my destiny,
They'll hang me high,
For the original sin.

Punks 'n' Rockers,
Bikers 'n' Ravers.
Came from on wide,
To this watering hole.
Too many ghosts,
Inhabit the old ground,
It's to admit,
It was years ago.

There's so many passing,
As I start retreating.
Remembering true love,
Snaps me out of It's spell.
We had some good times,
Some bad times, Some sad times.
Wherever you are,
I'm wishing you well.

We spent a few,
Long pleasant Summers.
We partied all day,
Long into the night.
High times and laughter,
We danced until daybreak.
It's hard to admit,
It was years ago.

They buried Bill,
And we showed that we loved him,
Barry went too,
And we showed that we cared.
There's too many passing,
As I start retreating,
Black is the style,
That I chose to wear.

BLACK

Stare across the stormy sea on this windy night

There’s nothing here for me and I don’t feel right

Take me to a land outside the visions of my mind

Take me to a paradise I’ll never find

 

Chorus

 

Sing songs of love for me

Sing songs of life

Sing songs that sound so real

Sing songs, sing songs of life

 

Take me on a roller coaster ride through mountains past

Through the valleys of my mind and make it last

Take me on a sailing boat, cool breeze through my hair

All’s well till someone spoke, what’s that you say

 

Bridge

 

Here‘s where the journey ends

Oh it had to be

Meeting lovers, meeting friends

Oh it had to be, to be

 

So I stare across the sea and I never know why

Why it came to me and I start to cry

I’ll never leave this place and I know this is true

And I’ll never see your face and be with you

Songs of Life

Somehow, musicians seem to have the same vibes in their heads. Because it's a miracle again. I had already finished the song as an instrumental piece, and then I searched on Looperman.com for a suitable acappella vocal and found something that fit so well that it seems as if I had composed the instrumentation later.

The suitable song I found is 'Sehveeneetahlahn' by Allia Elvish, performed by the amazing italian singer Kyba. The lyrics are in Aale Elvish — a constructed Elvish-like language inspired by Esperanto. I immediately liked the sound of this unusual language and, as I said, I was totally surprised at how well the singing fit my song. It's a little miracle 🙂.

Sehveeneetahlahn - Allia Elvish feat. Kyba & OMCB

‘Shadows Fade Away’ is a dark, reflective folk track about isolation, identity, and the quiet power of love. Written from the perspective of someone who’s never felt they belong — until she walks into his life.

LYRICS

I've always been the quiet guy,
A little out of step.
Some people say I've lost my mind,
What did they expect?
In a room full of strangers, 
I quietly slipped away, 
There's not enough,
To make me want to stay.

So why do I feel, that I don't belong?
Why do I say such things? 
That always come out wrong.
It's only me I'm hurting, 
Till she brightens up my day.
So why oh why oh why,
Don't these shadows fade away?

I bare the weight that no one sees 
I need to find some peace.
I've never asked for anything, 
Just a feeling of release.
I've walked through shit, 
And come out clean.
So blind I couldn't see
I've scars so deep they’ll always be,
Trapped inside of me.

So why do I feel, that I don't belong?
Why do I say such things? 
That always come out wrong.
It's only me I'm hurting, 
Till’ she brightens up my day.
So why oh why oh why,
Don't these shadows fade away?

This is one for the dreamers, the broken, and the believers. Plug in, close your eyes, and let the shadows fade.

SHADOWS FADE AWAY

excited to announce a preview track of Imperial Measures third upcoming album in production
https://imperialmeasures.bandcamp.com/
Peter Rand, Kevin Hartnell , SK

lyrics - Sk


what do you see ?
happens now.
don't hesitate it's coming fast 
do you look in front of you? 
intuition, circumstance

we're on the edge of a cliff 
just read between the lines
in hidden print (there's a hint) 
look deeper ( deeper) can you see the signs?

reading the runes

misinformation, manipulation, no hesitation, open your eyes!
your decision, intuition, no confusion, open your eyes!

What was done, was done before
don't look away, don't ignore

we're on the edge of a cliff just read between the lines
in hidden print, look deeper
can you see the signs?
( signs )
reading the runes

misinformation, manipulation, no hesitation, open your eyes!
your decision, intuition, no confusion,  open your eyes!

now is the time - open your eyes 
history repeats by design
reading the runes, reading the runes
just open your eyes!

misinformation, manipulation, no hesitation 
your decision, intuition, no confusion
open your eyes

Reading The Runes

First off, Yes this mix is pretty long!!!  But, nobody says you have to listen to it all in one go, even if someone listens to just a little bit, is better than nothing!
Secondly, apologies for using tracks that I've used a few times already! The truth is, I'm addicted  😹 the tracks in particular are by DJ Mystery and are classed as House bootlegs, I think they are simply Excellent!
As for the title, I got up for work a few days ago, I sleep on my shitty sofa, even though I have a bedroom, and my sofa is only a two seater, both seats are recliners, anyway, as I put down the right side, I saw a big ass spider run from under the table and disappear under the sofa!  I haven't bothered to look for it, but every now and then, I talk out loud, telling it, everything will be okay, as long as it doesn't surprise me! Lol
When I was a small child, my parents thought it would be funny to scare me with a huge rubber spider called Gladdis, lets just say, I never found it funny, and all they really did, was to give me Arachnophobia!
The Bastards!!!!  Seems like I'm getting better though, baring in mind, I live in England, and our biggest native spiders, The House Spider isn't exactly that large compared to a Tarantula 😹🕷🤣
I've always had a keen eye for cloud faces, and this one is a beauty, I snapped it while at work last week!

Big Spider Under My Bed

This is country-blues —simple, steady, and straight from the gut. It’s a song about circling back to the truth you keep trying to outrun, fighting the same old ghosts, and learning to stand tall even when life keeps knocking you down.

The verses lean into that worn-in, dusty-boots storytelling. The pre-chorus lifts the weight just enough to breathe, and the chorus hits with that honest, soul-bruised resolve that makes country-blues feel real.

If you’ve ever tried to walk away from something your heart ain’t done with… this one’s for you. Turn it up, let it ride, and feel those blues settle in.



Till I Get It Right

Our latest album, 'SNAGGLETOOTH' is now available to purchase on vinyl @ https://elasticstage.com/soundcloud/releases/the-dc-sound-project-snaggletooth-album

The DC Sound Project. Eight albums deep and still going strong. It usually starts with a good old-fashioned jam session, then somehow ends in a coffee-fuelled recording marathon. We write songs about love, politics, heartbreak, and those occasional “what the hell is wrong with the world?” moments, all brewed fresh on the Wirral. Press play… it’s music therapy with better side effects!

We’re an independent duo creating everything from raw folk ballads to gritty blues-rock. Every video is carefully crafted with free footage and, sometimes, AI-generated visuals to tell the story behind the song.
