-------------lyrics

This is the only sunrise
Edge of the amber darkness (cut the)
veins of blue mountain water…

A path to the lullaby wind
We're stumbling… 
not knowing the
The child from within

[@4catsncoffee on violin]
This is the flash of madness
Traced in the scraping branches…

A path to the lullaby wind
Sung by the…
child that sees out from within
Gravity, on and on (and on…)
Spots on the sun
Sung by the…
devil behind those closed eyes

Yes, promises chase the magic
breath, skipping the one heartbeat between
Faces and thousands of lullabies end in a single word

This is the only sunrise

Satan

Intro 
Who you gonna call when the news gets here
A new generation closes up in fear
Now these days are spent to leave this place
Cuttin' ties, just in case it's gone.

Where ya gonna go where there is no light
right the wrongs, stand the test time
and you'll know, we all know we can't run this time

So meet me soon at the jump off point
take my heart leave it all behind
It's cold and blue but I'd rather not die
right the wrongs, stand the test of time.
...with you, just one more time.
So meet me at the jump off point
take my heart and leave this all behind!

Outro 
meet me soon, just one more time...

Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)

Queen

Among many other things, Vera Sola is a poet, composer, Harvard literature scholar, and – of course – a songwriter. Although she’d written her own material over the years, it wasn’t until last year that she shared her music with another living soul. After serving as a touring member with Elvis Perkins’ band, Sola holed herself up in Native Sound Studio in St. Louis to record her songs for the first time ever, resulting in her debut album Shades, which she’ll self-release on Nov. 9. In the spirit of found object art, Sola used everything from bones to glass and filing cabinets to flesh out the folk arrangements she was creating.

The original version of the album’s single “The Colony” features Sola crooning with a vicious vibrato over brooding instrumentation that feels like it could’ve come from a long-lost spaghetti western classic. Sola was inspired to write the song after witnessing the native water protectors at Standing Rock, singing from the perspective of colonizers venturing to what’s now known as North America and claiming, defiling the land. The clatter of the rhythms and Sola’s merciless perspective of white colonialism is powerful in itself, but now the song has found itself diving even deeper into darkness.

Zola Jesus’ take on “The Colony” embraces the sinister edge stewing in Sola’s original song, unearthing swells of distorted bass drums and turning Sola’s voice into a ghostly haze. The pulse of the rhythms rattles viciously, shaking wildly alongside Sola herself. It creates a tension that’s drawn out throughout the entirety of the song, finally opening up to a clamor of beats erupting near the end. It’s hard to think of an artist more adept at breaking apart Sola’s already stirring work – performing a musical biopsy that stays true to the original’s core while and opening up new aural paths to the spirit of Sola’s work.

Vera Sola - the Colony (Zola Jesus Remix)

Early this morning
when you knocked upon my door
Early this morning
when you knocked upon my door

And I say: „Hello Satan, I believe it is time to go“

Me and the Devil
walking side by side
Me and the Devil
walking side by side

And I’m gonna see my man
until I get satisfied

See, see
you don’t see why
and you’a dog me ‘round

Say, don’t see why
people dogging me ‘round

It must be that old evil spirit
so deep down in your ground

You may bury my body 
down by the highway side
You may bury my body
down by the highway side

So my old evil spirit
can a greyhound
bus that ride

Soap&Skin - Me and the Devil

“Definite fan of these kids, they have that special something” – BBC Fresh on the Net
“INDIGOS have managed to blow us away with their sonic spectrum” – Bristol In Stereo

INDIGOS, the latest export of Bristol’s vibrant and significant live music scene, are pleased to announce their signing to premiere shoegaze bastions Club AC30 with the release of their heavenly self-titled debut EP.

An effortless blend of 90s post-punk grunginess mixed with layers of psychedelic guitars and irresistible pop hooks makes ‘INDIGOS’ an enchanting prospect, steeped in that ever popular juxtaposition between dark existential angst and blissful summer licks.

The 4-track was produced by Ben Johnson and IDLES guitarist Lee Kiernan with individual parts recorded from different studios, born as much from the bands financial limitations as anything else. Within these constraints they were able to pull together from various sessions and with the help of multiple collaborators, crafted something that sounded unexpectedly polished and extraordinarily expansive.

Opener ‘Silhouette Of You’ enraptures with its dreamy duel harmonies, marching, anthemic beat and blistering chorus while follow-up and lead single ‘I’m Healed’ goes to ever darker depths. ‘Animalistic’ leans into their cool slacker grooves and nonchalant delivery before euphoric closer ‘Out Of Body’ displays their more intimate stylings beautifully paired with a brutal cascade of riffs.
Lyrically the writing is diverse but always viewed through a poetic lens, exploring themes of self-reflection, projection, nostalgia, dystopia and more. They tells us that “our lyrics very often grow out of streams of consciousness as we bounce off each other’s ideas. We usually don’t know what a song is even about until it’s very nearly finished. Rather than trying to force a song into a preconceived ‘box’, we feel that creativity thrives on letting go of attachment to the end result, leaving the song to take on a form of its own, guiding the next steps we take, and essentially writing itself. Each song is as much a mystery to us as it is to anyone else, and that’s the way we like it.”

Recalling the likes of Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins and The Brian  Jonestown Massacre, their songwriting knack and live reputation piqued industry interest early on, with two Dot to Dot Festival  appearances, a support slot with Cherry Glazerr and 6 Music airplay.
