Sinister Exaggerator Wow… This completely blew me away. This album rewards listening to it in its entirety, it’s a journey. I hate categories, so the band’s description works. For me, it goes beyond that but whatever... Give this 10 minutes and you might be as hooked as I am. A statement and great stuff. Favorite track: solitary-plane.

Justin@BlindMouse Buy the ticket, take the ride. A 42 min ride. It won’t blow your eardrums but it will blow your mind. A great companion as you toil or enjoy one of life’s pleasures.

I pull a snake out of my flesh Feel the scales slide through my skin The ghost in my head became a friend of mine because she wont leave anyway I peel my skin so I can grow I peel my skin so I can live You may hold me down for now But you can´t hold me down for good Take all that you want from me I have endless more to give I peel my skin so I can grow I peel my skin so I can live So I can live

I have lost something today, a little piece along the way When I was standing on that bridge, with my pocket full of holes When I stared into the valley, with all its flickering lights When I was waiting for the night to pass When I stared into the past, where everything is lost And is nowhere to be found, nowhere to be found A little piece along the way Day by day by day by day

gravity 03:34
Let me Rest my eyes on you For they are weary and they´re weak Give me a break, a little while Let me forget everything I don't want to want you I don't want to want you I guess that it's just gravity, That pulls me to you And you to me I guess that it's just gravity

10.
The fear of being lost becomes desire now and then And every street that I have roamed led to the place where I began With the world already drenched, the severe rain can´t do much harm I only need a pretty face that shares a smile to keep me warm I like to talk to strangers, whenever strangers are around If a voice becomes familiar, I get unsettled by it´s sound I walk alone, blind to the world and to it´s needs Deaf to the dove I do not feed Mute to the widow´ s weeds

12.
My head against the wall I stare into the hole again I lost another friend I want to be complete Someone to please my needs I want some heavy sleep I need to flee the deep Another day will come, it´s gonna drag me away from here Like a solitary plane, that wanders through the stratosphere, away from here Another day will come, it´s gonna take me away from here Like a solitary plane, that flies throughout the stratosphere, away from here

I said goodbye to my fears and desires And my sleep is deep as death
15.
Do you wanna break some faces Do you wanna be destroyed Do you wanna fade or burn out Into the stillness of the void Do you wanna lose your temper Do you wanna scream and fight Do you wanna start a fire In the stillness of the void Do you wanna fall Then fall with me Fall with me

Eugène Delacroix painted Orphan Girl at the Cemetery in 1824 and probably has no idea that I'm using his painting for the cover.
The drums where played by Benny Ferfers.
