Description:
I'm not sure about the genre 'progressive/art rock'. Any other suggestion is welcome.

Lyrics:
Somewhere round eleven, I wondered how you still could keep your secret so well hidden in your head. Bring me down, I’m used to be a barrel of apologies. Breaking down the habits, I tried to find a reason why we suddenly have stopped to be ourselves. There’s one more thing we could have said before you’d start to break your head. Underwater, underscore, on the run, on the floor, underestimated: my domestic features. Captivating, uncontrolled, some you like, some you don’t, out of concentration: you analytic creature. Mostly round eleven, you dim the lights, we kiss goodnight, I laugh when your pyama’s way too wide. I should have said ‘don’t yell at me, it’s our domestic policy. Underwater, underscore, on the run, on the floor, underestimated: my domestic features. Captivating, uncontrolled, some you like, some you don’t, out of concentration: you analytic creature. Lies. Many Why’s. Tell me why do you keep joking. I’m out of laughs, I did what I could do and don’t ignore that this is true. Overwhelmed by strategy, I swallow your reality. Underwater, underscore, on the run, on the floor, underestimated: my domestic features. Captivating, uncontrolled, some you like, some you don’t, out of concentration: you analytic creature. We suddenly have stopped to be ourselves.

I look forward to hearing more &mdash 01/09/05 - 05:57:41 PM
Art Rock is a fine category for this, IMHO.

Pinot Noir software. I think that helped me on a couple of
my tunes. ;)

Moody, distant, restrained, compelling &mdash 01/11/05 - 06:38:29 PM
Love the baritone voice. The distant mix, everything
behind the sandpaper percussion. Moody and quirky, very
nice use of twisted bass. Nice occasional layering of
vocals, wonderful touch. Kept expecting a moment of
breakthrough, a moment when you'd break into an upper
octave, cream something like Peter Gabriel might. When it
happens, it is this soft floating background voice, sexy
and watery; very subdued and restrained. Still wanted a
moment of breakthrough, tho. Very cool textures,
concept and production.

new sonic dimension in retro &mdash 01/28/05 - 10:03:07 AM
how cool. love the track, everything about it, especially your voice. i would put this under alternative rock, not prog, even tho it fits fine there too in that people like genesis could easily have produced such a song.

I love this song so as the lyrics. This one reminds me of Bowie.
The vocals are great...

dramatic tune &mdash 01/06/07 - 11:29:17 AM
Always loved dramatic (nostalgic) darkish tunes. And Bowie seems an inspiration here indeed. But also Piet Goddaer (Ozark Henry)
