Wow, what an incredible production that certainly conjures up Bowie and Robert Smith. Spooky good electricity throughout this brilliant dark rock gem! Durge

Just Listening Again to this Epic Piece !!!

Such a great listen. I have a hunch that you are going there to play the Stadshusorgeln... to create some cool sound waves.

Just stunning music, lyrics and performance... such a solid work in every way!

This is a clash of psychology with science, and, well, early The Cure meets Bowie's Scary Monsters. It's easy to be close to somebody and still not be seen or heard no matter how loudly you speak. Mixed all this up with some actual invisibility science, so believe it or not, in terms not being seen this song stands on solid physics, until it doesn't....

BEND THE LIGHT

You see me
You look through me
You hear me
Can you hear me?

You’re blinded by your reflection
I’m invisible in the shadow of your glow

I absorb you
I deflect you
I’m a scientific wonder
My surface is cool
My paint is dark
A massive anomaly
A singularity
A Nobel prize in disguise
I’m in disguise

You’ve got the angle
You could be near or far
On any wavelength
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light

I wait for you
You walk by me
I’m a meta material
New spectrum
No infrared
I’m headed to the Blue Hall
A Nobel prize in disguise
I’m gonna be famous
I’m gonna be famous

You’ve got the angle
You could be near or far
On any wavelength
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light

You bend the light
But I’m gonna be famous
You bend the light
And I’m famous

Bend The Light

1
Guernica, the holy city of the Basques, 
Is located east of Bilbao in northern Spain.
It became known worldwide when it was
Attacked by German and Italian fighter planes 
More than 85 ys ago
During the Spanish Civil War 
Bombed the city into rubbles and ashes
And everyone else who lived there before
Guernica, one of the first airborne bombardments 
Aiming to eradicate civilians and other innocents

There`s no color, there’s no depth 
And for sure there’s no relief 
From your point of view
It’s monochrome and cubistic,
It makes your stomach tighten up,
When you think about everything that's happened ever since then and, 
Above all,
What is yet to come ?
What’s next upon the sleeve ?

3
There is a long and 
Pointed, deadly spear 
Piercing right through the chest
That’s like a manifest 
Just look into the frantic eyes of the dying horse
And you know and feel immediately, what’s goin’ on
It makes one wonder who the hell is comitting thus 
And for fucks sake what's basically wrong with us 
There`s no color, there’s no depth 
And for sure there’s no relief 
From your point of view
No matter what point you may choose
Will the victors again 
be writing down the history ?
It was the victors backthen,
Who wrote down history long ago...

From my youth I always wanted to compose something in this style. It's time to finally try :) Music, lyrics and performance - Nadir Shamuhamedov. Special thanks to Jane Johnson for proofreading the text.

I hope, one day, in the blooming May
I'll bring a ring and you'll say "Ok",
My heart will be filled with peace and light,
And flying bees will buzz gently "Right!"

Daisy!
My love made me almost crazy,
Don't let me think so hazy,
Now, oh my love,
Just tell me: "Yes I do…"
You and I
As tea and pie,  
I know, you love me too…

Even if it comes later
Maybe in a year or two,
Spring anyway
Will come and play,
Knowing  what tricks to do.

«Daisy» (in the style of the early Beatles)

Can You Feel It? 

I FUCKING FEEL NOTHING

I'll Follow You Down

Clever.wav

Cursed and Crowned is a relentless journey through spiritual battle, redemption, and raw emotion. Inspired by the heaviness of Bullet for My Valentine and the cinematic depth of modern metalcore, it blends crushing breakdowns, soaring clean choruses, and lyrics that confront the darkness head-on while pointing to the light. From the haunting “Graveheart” to the anthemic title track, every song bleeds passion, pain, and the victory found in surrender.



Kiss the Knife

Lyrics:

Got a lot of anger, and a lot of spite, but nothing else to lose
Tired of playing nice and letting you run this shitshow of a world
Time for a regime change, they'll pay their dues
No mercy for those who fucked with us, feel the wrath of the underworld
You reap what you sow
Your future, I know

This world is overrated, we've had enough of the hate
The time has come to eliminate
Every last person that thinks they're so great
Now you will be replaced, I can't wait

Total Human Eradication!
The extermination of your world, without reservation
Human life isn't worth preservation!
It's time to kill, the last generation
Total Human Eradication!
We light the match with no hesitation
The total destruction of all creation!
Death and destruction are the only salvation!

We can't save the world anymore, but at least we'll end it with class
It's our final party, and the drinks are all ours
We'll have a good laugh and toast to a world that's glass
Tick, tock, it's the countdown to your final hours

I'm serving up doom, get it while it's hot
Nuclear war, toxic spore, virus in your brain, explosion in your methane
Your misery is what I want to taste, I'm stirring the pot
You think I'm crazy, but this world is insane
Don't worry, I'll take away your pain
Your species has lost the right to complain

Total Human Eradication!
The extermination of your world, without reservation
Human life isn't worth preservation!
It's time to kill, the last generation
Total Human Eradication!
We light the match with no hesitation
The total destruction of all creation!
Death and destruction are the only salvation!

Fuck your flags and creeds, they can't save
Left or right, it's all the same—blind sheep who can't see
All we're good at is sending ourselves to the grave
Every breath you take, is an insult to me
When you're gone, nobody will care
You're not so special, just one big waste of air

No rewind, no encore—this the last song that will ever play
So long homo sapiens, you were fake and gay
The cost was steep, the debt too gray
So let's erase the world—pop the cork and decay

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. Mostly I write about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

A Gat is a cat in Catalan - it all makes sense if you’re me. The (s) stands for many collaborators.

I encourage everybody on SC to listen more and be less transactional.
