Atmosphere, textures and sharp edges. A map out of the maze of confusion. No animals were harmed during the making of this music... just guitars.
Independent? It's all my own work. I don't need to do this to put bread on the table... I just do it to feed the soul.

Lyrics
Thought I’d never learn till my dying day The art of getting my own sweet way ‘Cos around these parts, art’s a dirty word And words make all the difference, all the difference in the world He couldn’t take a hint, so I’m talking with my fists I’m making a point to the new opportunist I don’t suffer fools, especially tonight I’m alcohol fuelled and about to ignite He floated into town, like a piece of litter Now he’s floating face down in the river But I can predict: he won’t be missed ‘Cos nobody saw the new opportunist So what if tomorrow brings unusual weather? I’ve done all I can to keep us together There’s all you can drink at the wedding reception And the cops* help themselves to another deception If you ever think of leaving, let me tell you this: You better give my love to the new opportunist You can give my love to the new opportunist *DS Terry Lestrade
