Tell us some clever metaphor
Sing us a hymn or strum us a power chord
How bout I just try and say something honestly?
I don’t think I have what you’re asking for
I’m just like Jesus Christ why does the hum get louder?
Take another sip in and then get numb about it
Maybe I need a new way to shame out of me
All this toxic inner mythology
Down here in the low life
Where we got no way to be
I got some bad blood from my birthright
And there’s no one coming for me
Wish we’d have known that you left the pack
Me and the kids want our money back
Yeah we liked you better galactical
So read the script or nothing at all
Hallelujah all my sisters and all my brothers
Maybe some animals are more equal than others
Yeah i guess just being honest and showing some emotion
Has got all these people doubting
my commitment to Sparkle Motion so I’m...

Each year the same story: My wife (handmade pop music) and I (black metal maniac) go on holiday. We need some "soft" but honest music for long car drives. It is a tough week in advance to dive deeply into musical scrap to find some pearls like THE CLASSIC CRIME! This album really rocks, sounding more British than American. The first seven songs plus the stormy "Cold Loud Dark" are catchy killers and this is an almost perfect result for an album. A fat pillar in this years's holiday soundtrack! H.L.
