letting life emulate the music I listen to...

Special thanks to all the Soundclouders who like, comment and repost my Music and I will try to support them too!

All music written, performed, recorded and produced by Stefan van Walsum.

I am a german musician- born in the middle of the sixties. I am not a filigree genius. I would like to say- I am a craftsman musician. If the sound is loud and powerful- then I am satisfied!

I have autodidact learned to play the instruments guitar, bass and drums. 

My lyrics and music are inspired of everyday life. I am not a virtuoso but I love what I do. 

For recording my songs I use my homestudio. (Nandi´s Cavern Studio) 

The enthusiasm for the music is my drive and I am happy if I can take the audience with me on my musical rambles!

The Attic started out as a 3-piece Punk/R&B band in Leeds back in 1988. Not great times. Thatcher was in power and the music scene was stuffed with insipid indie shoe-gazing bands. Taking their cue from a period 10 or so years previously, the band set out to inject some energy and purpose into their music. They gigged constantly, mainly in the north of England and secured support slots on tours by the Clash bassist Paul Simonon's band Havana 3am, Eddie And The Hot Rods, Wreckless Eric, the Lurkers and Chelsea to name but a few. The band received plenty of press coverage and had a minor success with their 'Off The Nest' ep from 1991. Around this time they extended to a 4- piece with Steve Pedley brought in on rhythm guitar. Eventually the band called it a day when sticksman Graham Pickup secured a trial with a Midlands based First Division football club and rhythm guitarist at the time Cat Presley left to pursue a TV career. Ex-Gun Law guitarist BB Tim had stepped in to replace the Cat for a short period but the kid(s) didn't take to the telecaster driven country blues meanderings and the band had to accept their time was up. In 2012, only 17 years!...after the band imploded, Steve, Boo and Pickup got together for a jam in a converted barn on a farm in the middle of nowhere. Things started to click into place and eventually in September 2012, the band returned to the live circuit again and proved that they could still deliver!

5 year fathom watches watches,
stillborn every second second,
every biding breath it botches,
every burden bares it's beckon,

"time's the cup that drinks from you,
the carvened starvened quaffing challice,
press it to your lips anew,"
-Virginiana Hammemalis,

5 year fathom weighs the way,
in 1/16th of ever after,
kindle-clocks counting decay,
in oft regurgitated laughter,

"every thought's a treason plot,
a handle hewn in cares grown callous,
picks you up to smash you down,"
-Virginiana Hammemalis,

5 year fathom rode the road,
it's pressures poured into impostures,
each angle set to explode,
in seamy seams of dream imposters,

"drown your druthers cupid-careful,
find no fears and make no malice,
still you simper for a stareful,"
-Virginiana Hammemalis,

5 year fathom rolls the roles,
the marrow-masks that try to wear him,
tumblings take of tithing  tolls,
their irredeemers
set to scare him,

"dampen drove the bridal bridle,
purity's your pleasure pallace,
phallacy's your idle idol,"
-Virginiana Hammemalis,
