William Hughes First track Mad As Me is worth the entrance fee. Driving bass and avant garde horns. I'm enjoying the weirdness but sometimes I'm longing for a rhythm to hold it all together, be that in the form of a bass or drums. Favorite track: Mad As Me.

Stuart Haynes Mad As Me is one of the finest pieces of music that Chris has ever written/recorded. An incessant bass pattern with tight snare drum propel the song forwards. Weird background sounds, vocals, buzz-saw guitars, feedback and keyboards add to the intensity. The synth sax counter melody is genius - like Seven Impale or even early Yes, the over-instrumentation just works. Perfect through headphones - how can an artist be so prolific and consistent in terms of output, yet push the boundaries so much? Favorite track: Mad As Me.

mathias skeppstedt Another great one from Chris. Mad as Me is the closest he has ever gotten to The Fall, amazing bassline, wonderfully weird percussion and great horns.
21st Century Citizen is this weirdly hypnotic and brilliant piece of music that reminds me of the first two parts of Neubautens Fiat Lux. With sound effects and strange vocals it just builds and builds. Favorite track: 21st Century Citizen.

Mad As Me 07:15
There is so much to be frightened of There is so much to be afraid of Do you find yourself feeling scared? Often for no reason No reason at all Close your eyes and count to three 1, 2, 3 And tell me what you see. Do you see nothing at all? Well then you see the same as me Are you trying to understand your surroundings Are you trying to understand what you see? STOP! If you're trying to understand You'll go crazy You'll go mad as me So close your eyes and count to three 1,2,3 Tell me what you see The same as me? You want the same as me I want the same as you Why? Two! Are you trying to understand your surroundings Are you trying to understand what you see? STOP!

x=f (Magic) 03:05
I don't believe in magic anymore And I don't believe in God And I don't believe there is a hell Only on this earth Only on this planet I don't believe in miracles I don't believe anything in our humanity Is really supposed to be fair I don't believe in magic anymore I don't believe in God

How long have you been confused How long have you misunderstood every thing you see How long have you believed the lies of the machine Do you need help like I do? Have you failed to grasp true reality Have you failed like me? Like all of us do eventually There are great powers at work These are not driven by any kind of spirituality Only money power and greed Yeah that's the truth

Holy Cow 05:31
Holy cow Where you living now? Are you still alone? Living like you said you would? Living the dream I can see... You're soft How is it? Between you.. How is now? At least that's what you are You can tell me There is so much to see Holy Cow, what you doing now? Now Deliver me from temptation Now

Hold my hands I need to know Place your trust in me I won't let you go Hold my hands Place your trust in me Forever now Can you see the light? At the end of the tunnel? Does it shine brightly? Does it blind you Or does it show you the way? Forever now I need to know And now I want to sleep I want to put my head on you I need to feel complete Forever now I need to know Please hold my hand I need to know Place your trust in me I won't let you go I need to know Forever now...

Rat 05:56
I was a mouse They broke my back in a trap I was a rat They poisoned me and left me to rot I was a dog They kicked me and tied me to a post I was a horse Knackered out and food for dogs I was a cow They zapped and shot me with a bolt A chicken I was They hung me up, they slit my throat I was a sheep I was a lamb I was a calf I was a pig I was butchered and I was killed and I was sold cheap as shit I was a human being I was put on a wheel and broken I was crucified Buried alive Gassed in a chamber Gassed in a trench They shot me and flogged me And they killed my friends They hung me up They skinned me alive They chopped my head off And put the blade in a museum They had me killed in a colleseum They put me on a rack They drew me They quartered me They executed me They electricuted me They Kneecapped me They lynched me They neclaced me They beat me They teased me They boiled me They broke me They lied to me And then they put me on TV I was a mouse I was a rat I was a dog

I'm a 21st century citizen In a highly corporate world I'm an artist because I want to be free You can't brand me You can't tell me what I am Because I released myself from you I'm Electric I'm Acoustic I'm Oil I'm Acrylic This is not personal expression I'm not going to Mars any day soon I'm happy here Counting birds Watching them fly Hearing them sing They sing electric They sing me stories They help me sleep They wake me up I write this down It's electric, it's acoustic I paint in red I paint in blue I paint vermillion And cobalt blue I'm a 21st Century Citizen Living in a corporate world But I want to be free I read books sitting in trees I sculpt I write I'm electric I am acoustic My oils are acrylic You can't wrap me in your box Brand me or push me around at your will I'm a 21st century citizen In a highly corporate world You can't tell me what I am Because I released myself from you You can't tell me what I am Because I released myself from you Because I released myself from you I am simpler than you I'm fucked like you
