I once bought a dead man's car
From his grieving wife
She kept it garaged up for 6 whole months
She couldn't part with his life
He died behind the wheel
Cleaning the windscreen
The neighbors putting in their bedding plants
When they heard the scream

I once drove that dead man's car
I drove it to the lakes
My wife to be on the passenger seat
In the glove-box dead man's shades
I parked up that dead mans car
Certainly was a sunny day
As I locked up I reached across
and put on those dead mans shades
They were 50s ray-ban style 
Tinted green with visor sides
She snatched them off 
I heard them drop 
She threw them in the lake

How I miss my dead mans shades 
They made me look at life in many different ways
I don't care too much for rose tinted spectacles 
I just want my dead mans shades

I stared out into the lake
I watched those ripples disappear
I thought about Donald Campbell
and how he had no fear
I started skimming stones 
and I don't know for sure
Exactly whereabouts those shades went down
and where he flipped the bird 

How I miss my dead mans shades 
They made me look at life in many different ways
I don't care too much for rose tinted spectacles 
I just want my dead mans shades


Dead Man's Shades (demo)

War Cry EP Rrlease date: 26/02/16
Video: https://youtu.be/IQyDFAF1sC0

Press Release:

Fleckt Pets release the 7-track EP 'War Cry' on Friday 26 February.

Fenders and fuzz dominate this dark but hooky record with trashy riffs hinting at funk, soul, garage and a smudge of country rock all harnessed by basic  punk rock values and a have-fun-or-don't-bother mentality. Politics and personal stories merge on this record as frontman Tom Barber spits, snarls and screams brutal honesty, dragging you into his troubled world of booze, violence and frustration.

The front cover of the album features the warmonger Tony Blair with Fleckt Pets bassist Calum Piercy as a child. This is a real photograph taken in Calum's hometown (and Tony Blair's former constituency) Sedgefield.

Fleckt Pets are best experienced live, so the music for the 7-track War Cry EP was recorded live in a single room by David Curle at First Avenue Studios in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England, with vocals added afterwards.

War Cry Track List

1. Where's the HTP?
2. Slow Me Down
3. War Cry
4. Mucky Duck
5. Aitor, Please Don't Leave Me Too
6. English Dancing Ladies
7. Roach
