I Won't Sign Pt.1
05:29

|
Lyrics:
Our plates are laid richly and yet we starve
We dye the night in neon light and still walk blindly through the dark
We stroll around with a frozen frown and hinge our self at any spark
So we constantly gather and then we fall apart
I won't sign my name with your ink of blood
I won't build my home on a hollow ground -
all sinking down when comes the flood
When comes the flood?
When comes the flood?
When comes the flood?
When comes the flood?

Too Many Preachers
06:31
|

|
There's too many preachers where talk is cheap
Too many preachers with their tongue in their cheek
Too many preachers, let them preach
I don't, I don't need no judge to know what's wrong
And I don't need no home to know that my roots are strong
I don't, I don't need no judge to know what's wrong
And I don't need no home to know that my roots are strong
There's too many preachers where talk is cheap
Too many preachers, let them preach

Sliver
07:21
|

|
Our violence is privat, safe behind doors
For the many, if not for all
Everyday is war, the everyday war
Can't you hear the terror -
lurkin', scratching, screeching through the wall
They sell isolation as a means to be free
Tidal waves of manufactured dreams
Ever changing on infinite repeat
Hard wired, custom made identity
Preconceived and so constrained reality
So take all your devices, your monitors and screens
And plug 'em all into me
Make my mind feed the machinery
Don't you know - every sliver is part of the whole
Don't you know - we all share the same soul
Don't you know - every sliver is part of the whole
Don't you know - we all share the same soul
I willingly choose to see the unity within diversity
I willingly choose to see the unity within diversity
I willingly choose to see the unity within diversity
Don't you know - every sliver is part of the whole
Don't you know - we all share the same soul
Don't you know - every sliver is part of the whole
Don't you know - we all share the same soul

Who Tells The Story
09:32
|
|||
|
See my eyes are weak from starin' into shadows
Heavy are the words we speak even when they're hollow
Hear the sound so free from beyond all our sorrow
Whose is the ground beneath, whose the sky we borrowed?
Whose is the truth we preach, who set the rules we follow?
Bleak seems the world I see when dreaming of tomorrow
Who tells the story?
Who put the black beneath the white?
Who tells the story?
Who sorts the left from the right?
Who tells the story -
If not you and I?

No One Is Free
06:10

My sister she's a pretty - when she smiles
My sister she's a pretty - when she smiles
Now when he put her in a cage nearby
He sure meant no harm
But to preserve her smile
So he might not have known
How he built the chain that binds
My sister was a pretty - when she smiled
My sister was a pretty - when she smiled
Now she's a captive by all of our confines
So we're all captive in a jail made of mind
Now she's got a river
A river in her eyes
No one is free until all are free
No one is free until all are free
No one is free until all are free

Safe & Sound
07:04
|

|
I wear my face like a crown
While I, while I feel it raining inside
And sometimes, sometimes
All the colors leave me blind
And sometimes I wonder why,
Wonder why it's so hard to smile
I wear my skin when I'm 'round town
And grasp for breath like I could drown
My mind at war, you see me frown
But in the clouds I am safe and sound
I wear my face like a crown
While I, while I feel it raining inside
And sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes I wonder why
It's so hard, so hard for me to smile
I know there's love, though there's no proof
Show me the difference between me and you
And tell me is this real - or just a dream?
Tell me is this real or is it just a dream?

Samsara Joyride Vienna, Austria
What started at the beginning of 2020 with spontaneous jam sessions in a Viennese living room led within a few months into the locally produced “Stranger” EP. And those kindred spirits who soon agreed on the band name SAMSARA JOYRIDE continued to relish their melange between heavy-blooded seventies blues rock and the bone-dry psychedelic sounds of the 1990s. ... more

Further

The music is just outstanding and the lyrics go in all kinds of directions. I have enjoyed listening to this album so many times already. Wonderful music.

Traditional Black Magicks II
by Skull Servant
supported by 85 fans who also own “The Subtle & The Dense”
I don't think there's any band that sounds quite like Skull Servant does. The songs hit hard and heavy while maintaining a strong melody, and the two singers provide a contrast that makes every song feel unique. The crunchy guitar and bass tone puts a lot of power behind the riffs, and the songwriting and arrangement makes this feel like a concept album. If there's one thing Skull Servant does best, it's creating music that is dynamic and ever changing.

Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

Sonic Praise
by Ecstatic Vision
Percussive, guitar-driven, psych-chaos from Philly trio who never take their adrenaline-fueled feet off the gas.

Italian stoner powerhouse Tenebra has the heft of Sabbath and the hooks of Saint Vitus in their powerfully imposing tunes.

Dead Man's Theme (Full Album)
by Dead Gallery
supported by 81 fans who also own “The Subtle & The Dense”
Blues fans - don't let the cover art fool you! These guys let their music do the talking! Strong influences showing through, Hendrix, SRV, Trower among others, all blended into a sound of their own. Strong rhythm section and the guitarist turns it every which way but loose! A hidden gem!
