Synaesthesia

I wouldn't mind a read Lambo.

on my things to do list is to be published!! never gonna happen though


If a publisher told you that LAM you should look at getting it done

awh come on LAM give it a go - you too Jinksie

this isn't about being an artist as much as about allowing the subconscious come to the surface -using music as the means if that makes sense

I write as well - this was my anti-war spoken word one I wrote about the invasion of Iraq

IN MY HEAD ARE THE CHANTS OF A 1000 STARS
It will suffocate us
It will immobilize us
It will brew hatred and intolerance
…in our hearts
I feel it all around me
trembling, starting to boil
The insidious nature
…of the supposed benign growth
If it isn’t the end times
they will make it sow
Cloisters of weeds
constrict and deceive
Their lost baa-aaas on the wind
It’s all black and white
and not from a Taoist sight
but from illegal rulers of men
Who is the foe?
Who is the friend?
Is there any distinction there?
Not from the closeted minds
that breed
GREED
DEATH
and LIES
and instil FEAR as their national hymn
Allegiances sworn
ala “purity” is born
THERE IS NO HONOR IN THIS FIGHT!

But what can one do
When the weeds world view
is formed in a vacuous tube
Dim pixelation
Carbonised nation
Fascist regimes with totalitarian dreams
Enslave the essence of us
Masquerade with their crowns
both thorny and brown
and dripping in fossilized crude
Silver rings adorn bloodied hands
But that is all right
They can justify such sights
Because some god has bestowed upon them
The power of purge
The power of judge

The bringers of doom
hide behind silenced media lies
that force-feed the masses on cue
The sound bites alive
but the story dies
Why bother with content?
When a faked photograph will do
Attentions are short
The weeds forget
Their consumption is
Parasitic and wasteful
Evangelical law comes before common sense
The decline of the humanitarian has commenced
They call for this head
They call for that head
Inconsequential crumbs tossed their way
because it’s more important to know
about the long dead
Then to hear about the waste dumped
IN OUR NAME

The ground radiates their greed
and fuels desert pipe dreams
What a mess we have made
Our consumption remains unchanged
What’s better for U.S.
is a fuck you for most
And one has to wonder why such hate?

So a rock is thrown
and a flag burned
They dance on our graves
because of a plutonium plague
And this is what pisses the weeds off
They scream…
THE TERROR INSIDE!!!
THE TERROR WITHIN!!!
But silence descends
as the young return home
wrapped in swaddling cloth of nationalistic pride
and encased in pine
And still the weeds consume
and pray and
foretell our doom
Served up in an infinite stream of
confusion and fear based lies

The images pervade
More charred remains
Mondo TV fuels the rage
When all hope is lost
And bodies still continue to rot
Insanity holds its reign

Evangelical schemes
spew forth
from amphetamine laced screams
As the crusaders
blaze over the night sky
Flashes of light
from the oil baron knights
Their banner risen high
for a corporate sponsored right
Its slogan FEAR
stamped on our brow
They trudge forth over the dunes
to claim their prize
and inflict terror on the native population
So began the genocidal germination

The thief in the night
steps into the light
and shears the remaining few

On fungi sleepy-bye dreams
We descend
We collide
without the comfort of
our rose tinted specs to abide
The horror and destruction are all ours

Rome never died. It just jumped continent

excellent - just let me know when you want to download the torrent and I'll put utorrent on

now here is the mantra for everyone

NO ONE IS SHITE

WE ARE ALL ARTISTS

WE ARE ALL CREATIVE

okay sorry to yell but am I going to have to pull out my boomstick and smack you all until you sound concussed like me?

in all honesty Lam that's the best way to go about it - there are instructions in the file - 5 mp3's and a questionnaire to answer about each music track

Maxx - hopefully some of the music will make you not so angry - but as John Lydon once said "anger is an energy" so its best to direct it in a creative way

glad you're not angry (or as angry) anymore!! not worth it!

No deadline! How do i know this? i asked a few hours before you

Glad you found something to release it at and lots of shooting at the airsofting(?) thing tomorrow might help!!

I only just downloaded it tonight so you're ahead of me in that but i will probably just nick my stuff from work
