Liner Notes

My band Neko Roshi have been taking part in FAWM for the past couple of years. They didn't like skirmishes much or the perceived pressure (probably from me) to finish a song quickly. So this one was developed at a slower pace and I've just finished it in their absence. Lyrics and concept from Tom Solomon (bass) with drum parts and guitars by Dom and Damian respectively. I did another guitar part and sang Tom's words. #rock #synthpedal #krautrock #wagner

Lyrics

Daily confusion Bruising emotions Routine direction Dragging collusion We've been gaslighted Breaking contentment Building frustration I've been let down

Making exceptions Bringing the collapse Participation Without permission Constrained mutation These chains are golden Boxed in from something I'm breaking out

Time has come for me to break To give myself some open space I am the captain of this ship And I will break away from it

Great energy here. Cool bass, and the rest of the parts support the vocal nicely. Well done by all.

So cool the whole band is taking part! Great performance from everyone here! Definitely has those classic Krautrock vibes!

Great song! This is the full band? I really like the recording. It sounds very good. Nice and "live" sounding.

yes it's everyone, in the shed, using garageband and a tascam interface to 'multitrack' clumsily.. I mean we record the drums first (with everyone playing) and then have to remember where the singing or whatever starts. It's a surprisingly simple process and full of happy accidents.

I'm getting some Gang of Four vibes here, which is always a welcome thing. Great spiky guitar stabs there. A real rokkin tune. I enjoyed this tune this morning; better than coffee.
