A strange, somewhat grim vehicle of electropunk-inspired industrial pop nonsense. I've been told my lyrics verge on the slightly intense. With effortless underg
I'd love to sound more like :Wumpscut: or Katscan or someone like that but I'm afraid that's unlikely. I've spent too many years looking for proper industrial punk bands and the sort of hairy European misanthropes that float my boat, but come up empty, so I thought I'd do it myself. That said, I cringe listening to my own tunes - which unfortunately I've been known to do sometimes; possibly because they're all gloriously unhinged. I suppose Jandek and Suckdog are role models as well then. Does this break the 'evil Nihilistic bleakness' third wall a bit? I always wonder that about industrial and post-industrial groups. They all sound so sensible and dour. That said, I'd like to think my real life is somewhat grim, and I'm not just moaning on about Nazi zombies or cybernetic hookers or something. You get a lot of dental references in my stuff. Much as I try not to glorify it, that's probably because I've been known to chew sweet dripping fuck out of myself on occasion and would at least like to be allowed to complain about that decidedly unorthodox state of affairs occasionally. The attitude of Whitehouse, Brighter Death Now, Swans and Painslut filtered through the crappy techno pop bleepery of whatever modern toss I'm subconsciously influenced by, I suppose. Right, that's enough bands name-dropped. Just listen to it if you're curious.

Lyrics
A Pale Horse Feel the black room blackout Parasite mind Dig into my rabbit hole and look what you find A screech of clotted canvas drenched in crimson cold decay Don’t bother coming back if you can even find the way Disintegrating face You devalue the divine Till there’s nothing to believe in and there’s nothing there to shine So I’ll ride a pale horse to the far end of the line Suck the essence of Abyss Scalpel senses scraped down time Peeling off a twitch of tears As sustenance for sickly years Stabbing out the butts of stars And painting picture perfect scars Another scream within the dark Another silence sharpened stark Another mental trigger snapped Another misery unwrapped Disintegrating face You devalue the divine Till there’s nothing to believe in and there’s nothing there to shine So I’ll ride my pale horse to the far end of the line Suck the essence of Abyss Scalpel senses scraped down time Fingering the void With a sold out soul Flay my spectrum bare Let Chaos control I leave your sick little dream swilled on sepulchre shores But I fear I just don’t know how to be real anymore Disintegrating face You devalue the divine Till there’s nothing to believe in and there’s nothing there to shine So I’ll ride my pale horse to the far end of the line Suck the essence of Abyss Scalpel senses scraped down time Disintegrating face You devalue the divine Till there’s nothing to believe in and there’s nothing there to shine So I’ll ride my pale horse to the far end of the line Suck the essence of Abyss Scalpel senses scraped down time Feel the black room blackout Parasite mind Dig into my rabbit hole and look what you find A screech of clotted canvas drenched in crimson cold decay Don’t bother coming back if you can even find the way
