Haunted House

Back in September we played a live stream gig at the Hotbox venue in Chelmsford, Essex. Our set on the night included 2 new songs (of which this was one) Rory Attwell took those skeletal live recordings and with some studio wizardry turned them in to 2 proper tracks (All vocals recorded again in the studio) 

We had never worked this way before but this lockdown pushed us to be inventive.

‘24 Roehampton Street’ tells the story of a couple living out the last moments of their lives after an apocalyptic event. The songs protagonist faces up to all the years he has wasted working  and how far removed he is from the person he was when he first met his wife. The memories of how happy they once were come flooding back when he is faced with the inevitable end. 

The song was influenced by 80s nuclear war films Threads and When The Wind Blows and the Civil Defence information series Protect and Serve.

/// LYRICS:

Would you know it if you had?
She was written by a man
Only a warrior until she undresses

Do you feel that way too?
Jealous, misunderstood
Disrupting the party again
With your feelings

Have you seen her, Athena?
Have you seen her?
Feeling all the sorrow of a broken world
Heavy garlands hang from a divine fighter
When you break the silence
Does it feel like violence?

She’s your heroine
Shut her up again
Long may she reign
If she can hide her strength
Have you seen her, Athena?
Have you seen her?

Out Loud

Helpless

In a world of consumerism, we’re all guilty of searching for the next best thing that we think’s gonna make us happy, but it’s never everlasting and we’re never truly fulfilled from it.  Alright is intended to be a simple and to the point track, about living your life in as simple and straight forward way as possible, with the people and things that matter.

Alright

“Where do we go when we sleep? Is sleep a gateway? A portal? Is it a chance for us to reconnect with the other side? Did we make some pre-arrangement that when we wake we will not remember these other worldly visits? Yet, some mornings we awaken with foggy recollections of our out-of-body journeys - an experience we call dreaming. It was this paradoxical sense of return to a place that was familiar yet unfamiliar that inspired ‘The Unknown’”.
