Mannequin

For fans of nine inch nails, tool, nirvana, sonic youth, faith no more, tomahawk, led zeppelin, pink floyd, melvins,

Mannequin is an independent, experimental, industrial rock band. My music has been described as dark & disturbing, but simultaneously beautiful and honest. Full of revenge for scornful lovers, as well as disgust, self loathing, and regret. The debut album, "Denial Fixation" was finished in 2002. "Straining the Retina" is a concept album started in 2002, and although never officially released, the songs have slowly been surfacing in different forms. "Worn" is the current album for the songs I'm releasing now. I'm looking at releasing it physically and/or digitally later this year. Also see my page on myspace:

Lyrics

like the fetus in the womb
isolated and desperate
seperated and intimate
like the beaten child in the corner of the room
what could ever fill this hole?
another color-coded snap-on-soul!?

in daily situations
most of us pretend
to be the closest friends
constant denial, farce and lies
fake smiles and good-byes

amazing how we stomach,
the desolation in - the others' eyes
your're just a whisper in the wind
hold the hate within

we medicate, just to stimulate -
to procrastinate, the inevitable ending...
infinite pretending

I see you everyday...
you're meaningless to me in every way
we're all alone here... because of fear -
of letting go, of these constraints,
that leave us so -
buried in these deep black holes

each and every day
we implay and convey
we withdraw and then foray
retreat just to invade

to hear you pretend, to adore us,
and your interest in us
it's a lie that always sends us
to a place we cannot trust
