Nouveau retro pop rock music: Definitely rock, fairly pop, somewhat retro, and a bit more experimental. http://www.stonemarmot.com
Our music is the result of not watching TV for over 40 straight years. That's right! The person who writes all our songs hasn't had a working television in his house since January, 1982. Scary, isn't it! That could explain the somewhat retro, rather experimental feel to the music, which has been described as sounding somewhere between Buddy Holly, The Ramones, The B-52s, and They Might Be Giants. This CD is an object lesson in how warped and depraved a television-starved mind can get. And that's not all! To make matters worse, since no self-respecting human would stoop low enough to play this stuff, he suckered four poor, innocent cartoon characters into recording his music. Cartoon characters have it tough enough as it is, with people laughing at them all the time, without having to be subjected to this! His poor, unfortunate victims, who refer to themselves collectively as Stone Marmot, are: Cindy: Guitars Sid: Keyboards, guitars, lead and backup vocals Sammy: Bass, lead and backup vocals Bruce: Percussion, backup vocals This quartet played their little paper hearts out as the ignoble fiend who created them and their music practically produced and engineered them to death. Therefore, for the sake of the cartoons, we hope you give their music a good listen and try to appreciate their tireless and selfless efforts. Please! Don't let this happen to you or someone you love! Be sure you and your loved ones receive a healthy minimum dose of television each and every day.

Lyrics
Time, the winds of time Time, the winds of time Yesterday a schoolboy, playing with a new toy Making up all those naughty rhymes Gone, the winds of time Waste away the hours, staring at some punch clock Exchanging precious minutes for lousy dimes Lost, the winds of time Gone, the winds of time Hello there, old fellow, here you've come to haunt me Steal away my moments, a hideous crime Wasted, the winds of time Sails harness nature, help me find the fabric The one that will allow me to harness time Catch, the winds of time Grasp, the winds of time Help me find the answer to that endless question I just want to slow the flow of time Too many meetings, always late Worrying 'bout my final fate Another wrinkle on my face I can't keep up this hectic pace A wife, a kid, another son Now my daughter's having one My life is going much too fast I want time to STOP!! (End background refrain:) Help me find the answer Help me find the answer Help me find the answer to this rhyme How can I slow the flow of time Please help me slow the flow of time Copyright 2003 A.
