I'll live my life in shades of monochrome
Walking in the rain
Like an old movie
The city lights distorted in the water
And downpour like percussion
And excess imagination
He's gone
He's gone

They tell us how to think & how to feel
Plan your life out, you're young & you're full of zeal
Every last second, down to your meals
Don't want your buzz words or your appeal
You must know what you wanna do
Have your life planned out till you're 82
You must know what you wanna do
You must know what you wanna do
We're your guinea pigs and we don't approve
We're your guinea pigs and we don't approve
We're your guinea pigs and we don't approve
You must know what you wanna do
You must know what you wanna do
Have your life planned out till you're 82
You must know what you wanna do
You must know what you wanna do

The World Drops Dead

Trying to find some sort of meaning
Behind the sorrow that's left
What we don't realise
Is that peace has no end
An old tortured poet
or an addict with a gun
We make them beautiful for the rest of the world
Life is hard to picture
Because nobody has a clue
And now I know it's all a joke
A failed romance, an awkward hope
We cling on yet our needs aren't met
Contentment is not a virtue
Contentment is fake
Building barriers to islands
Leaving them, it's too late
Customs, bullets and wire
A mad world under fire
We are fighting each other
and the politicians win
The sun slips through my fingers
So weightlessly I sigh
And the fish are drowning
And the fish are drowning
And now I know it's all a joke
A failed romance, an awkward hope
We cling on yet our needs aren't met

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.

As the name implies, there’s something wonderfully spooky about this Philly band—shoegaze with a haunting undercurrent.

A fascinating bit of bedroom outsider indie, Suchus has crafted nine songs with beguiling melodies and watery layers of guitar.

Sounds lovely, succinct and effortlessly good. Pink vinyl and an obi strip made me like this record, track 1 made me love it and repeated plays have made me treasure it too.
