Reverse Entropy (by Rodolfo Planes and Mark J Bennett)

We drift from order to chaos,
Like it’s the norm.
Without a sense of pathos,
To see the storm.
Following your safe instinct,
Where it may go,
Or go where you are told.

We let others cloud our vision,
Like they know best.
What happened to our ambition
Never addressed.
Following your safe instinct,
Where it may go,
Before we get too old

You have the choice,
When you have the will,
And it’s backed with the,
Knowledge, and fulfilled by skill.

We fall for the theorists,
Like it’s gospel.
Go find yourself some realists,
Who’re less hostile.
Following your safe instinct,
Where it may go,
While you still have a hold.

We’ve been duped at every turn,
By those we trust.
Without alarm or concern,
Now we are bust.
Following your safe instinct,
Where it may go,
If you can still feel bold.

You have the choice,
When you have the will,
And it’s backed with the,
Knowledge and fulfilled by skill.

All our futures are in your hands
With all that it commands
Focus on how it now all stands
Before making your demands.

Reverse Entropy

The band started as a duo during the lockdown. Rodolfo Planes (based in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Rep. Argentina) sent a musical demo to Mark Bennett (based in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK)hoping he would write lyrics for. The music somehow stirred a sense of longing and belonging, combined with the enforced isolation from loved ones, inspiring Mark to write very touching lyrics. Then the partnership was born.
After a while, different fellows were invited to collaborate to play and perform some backing vocals. 
After finishing ‘Black Water’, the song released in the first single, Mark and Rodolfo decided to re-write the old material to contribute to the band repertoire. The band decided to invite Ce Mastro as vocalist, Dave McKeown, and recently Georg Boheme to play the sax lines. Other collaborations has included Cintia Galeano on backing vocals and Gonzalo Ares on guitar and backing vocals.
