HAPHAZARD AT MY BEST
THE INTROVERTED EXTROVERTS CONFESS
TALK THROUGH THEIR TEETH IN APOLOGETIC MUMBLES
WHERE PERFECT SKIES ARE DREAMED IN ROUGE AND MAZARINE
ALABASTER CLOUDS POSE AS CHESSBOARD PIECES
ROTHSCHILD SLIPPER ORCHID PRAY WHERE DO YOU GROW
WHAT GIVES BIRTH TO YOUR RAREST FORMS AND FEATURES?
ON THE SLOPES OF MOUNT KINABALU
THE DANDELION SHOWN
TIS THERE AT A HEIGHT OF TWELVE HUNDRED METRES
COS WE’RE ALL GETAWAY GETAWAY GETAWAY
GETAWAY DRIVERS IN A STOLEN CAR
NOT BIG ENOUGH THE STAGE
STRUTTING PEACOCKS IN A MACHIAVELLIAN RAGE
HARBINGERS OF AVANT GARDE COERCION
YOU LEFT ME BURNT AND SCARRED
FIGHT NOT THE DRAGONS BUT OURSELVES
TOO HARD TATTOOED STAINS FROM MOLTEN LAVA HANDSHAKES
AN ORGY OF INDIFFERENCE ENVELOPED BY PRIDE
THE LITURGY EXPOSED YOU NOW FIND COMPELLING
IN THE BYZANTINE RELICS AND FRESCOES THEY HIDE
THE LEVIATHANS BREATH SLOW LABOURED AND HEAVING
FOR THIS IS MY MORE SOUR THAN SWEET CONFESSION
DID I CARE TO MENTION
I’VE NEVER BEEN GETTING IT RIGHT
I WILL MUST HAVE MY WAY
A SILVER COIN FROM ANCIENT ROME YOU SAY
DENARIUS ONCE KNOWN AS A PENNY
NO TWISTS OR CURLICUE
IN THE DESIGN OF OUR TRENCHES FEW
BUT MANY MASQUERADE AS PIONEERS
WE ARE LEGION AND NOT SIMPLY ONE THING
PERSONAS IN A BOOK OF MANY PAGES
A MULTIPLICITY OF SELVES TO THIS EXISTENCE WE BRING
BY ALL MEANS HAVE BUT TREASURE NOT YOUR OPINIONS
COS WE’RE ALL GETAWAY DRIVERS IN A STOLEN CAR
THE INTROVERTED EXTROVERTS CONFESS
TALK THROUGH THEIR TEETH IN APOLOGETIC MUMBLES
WHERE PERFECT SKIES ARE DREAMED IN ROUGE AND MAZARINE
ALABASTER CLOUDS POSE AS CHESSBOARD PIECES
ROTHSCHILD SLIPPER ORCHID PRAY WHERE DO YOU GROW
WHAT GIVES BIRTH TO YOUR RAREST FORMS AND FEATURES?

Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust
by Sigur RósThere is an ethereal atmosphere that envelops you whole when listening to this. Full of subtle maggot melodies that flourish with each repeated listen. I adore music that creeps up on you and BANG!

Like audio hot chocolate for the spirit. It combines a comforting nostalgia yet quite like nothing else that preceded it. The vocal and rhythmic signature changes result in something timeless.
go to album -
As if breaking into an emporium, while exploring the innocence of a child like wonder with a macabre sonic under belly. It marries joy and sorrow in sparkling unity.

The Inner World Outside
by electric mudsupported by 5 fans who also own “Getaway Drivers”
Electric Mud sends you to distant lands where cinema and prog music combine to create a unique climate, a painting in the sun where colors mix as they melt; a unique album that becomes the avant-garde of the genre.

The Warm, Dark Circus
by Jack O' The Clocksupported by 4 fans who also own “Getaway Drivers”
What a major leap forward Damon has made! While I've liked virtually everything that he's released under the Jack O' The Clock moniker, this is by far my favorite. The combination of those opening two songs tells it all--and "Dürer's Rhinocerous" is one of the best prog epics of 2023. And still there remains the tender story teller, master of multi-layered melodies in "Stuck Inside of Elvis" and "...and Who Will Tell Us?" The album is a masterpiece! Bravo Damon & company!

With their blend of playfulness and graduate-level instrumentation, Dorcha deftly prove that improvisational zeal and conservatory-level precision aren't mutually exclusive.
