@elljott: yep, lyrics are on bandcamp: https://undercoverhippy.bandcamp.com/track/rise-fall :)

We created the state in Iran 
We created the afghan Taliban 
We created the hate in Iraq 
That provided the spark for the ISIS clan 

We created this mess 
Playing the world now like a game of chess 
Anybody wanna guess 
Who the pawns are? 
Getting fucked like a porn star? 
Damn right that’s us 

Any fool can tell 
Banging on the door at the gates of hell 
You’d do well 
To educate yourself 
Instead of getting caught up 
trying to make your wealth 

Forget about yourself 
for one minute people look around the world 
how bad does it need to get 
before you get upset 
and realise that you can rebel 

CHORUS 
You think you know now what you know 
But you know what you see 
And you see what they show you 
So come along 
You think the world is set in stone 
Look around how many Romans d’you see? 
Everything that rises must fall 

Think you know now what you know 
But you know what you see 
And you see what they show you 
So come along 
You think the world is set in stone 
Look around how many Romans d’you see? 
Everything that rises must fall 


Give your more to receive your less 
How many gadgets you get for your pound of flesh? 
Forty hours a week of pure stress 
Just to be able to dress to impress 
While the rest of the world might as well be Mars 
Empire never really meant to last 
Throw rocks in a house of glass 
Like a madman living in Centreparcs 

But don’t listen to me 
Go read up on your history and you’ll see 
It’s never really what it’s supposed to be 
Looking through the lens 
Of the shit they show on TV but the news we see 
At best serves the interests of the powers that be 
Saying if you wanna drink tea 
And live in a democracy 
Then the market’s got to be free 

CHORUS 

Wages fall and they push up the prices 
These people don’t know what nice is 
Take a look at the crisis with ISIS 
Governments left to their own devices 

You might think that’s unrelated 
But the fact is reality is complicated 
And the backroom deals that seal the fate 
Of these countries never even get debated at all 

Even when the countries at war 
Even when all the young men fall 
And all because the energy companies still want more 
While the poor 
Here in the UK can’t even afford to stay warm 

While they struggle surviving 
Profits are rising 
Ask yourself why we support the violence 

CHORUS 

Everything that rises must fall x4

This track started out life as a bunch of bars I used to use when I was living my former incarnation as a drum and bass MC. When I started getting back into guitar based music I tried laying them over a few chords, and this is what came out...

Moving In The Dark - BadHabitz Remix feat. Adam The Rapper

So here we are again, in another recession... and we act all surprised, like this has never happened before! The refrain of this track is a Mandinka folk song from The Gambia... it warns us of the danger of the snake pit, and tells us to play our music loud to scare away the snakes! So turn up the volume and press play... :)

Global Recession

A warning to the seemingly unstoppable power structures that shape the modern day world. "You might stop a single man, but you can't stop the tide"

Can't Stop The Tide

Goulash is featured on the upcoming Mr Tea and the Minions EP release - "Feel Free to Undress" which you can get here: https://mrteaandtheminions.bandcamp.com/album/feel-free-to-undress-ep-2

The song was inspired by a beautifully insane week the band had in Croatia whilst playing Goulash Disko Festival 2014!

Recorded and Mixed at Helios Studios by Dave Laycock - https://www.facebook.com/heliosstudiosuk?fref=ts

Truth & Fiction

Rise & Fall (Radio Edit)

Futuristic roots was conceived out of a love of Jamaican music and the sound system culture it spawned as the first ever bass lead genre, since the sixties Jamaicans have pushed the boundaries sonically in the dance halls and socially through conscious thinking, this album is our take on the evolution of those genres.

Ska'd Up

I wrote this track walking to work each morning through Lincon City and saw what spice/mamba was doing the to place with people slumpt in doorways etc.
