What a lovely conjunction of sounds and rhythm to start an album, mellow and somehow daring in a charming way. Then a Serious Jump to Another Galaxy, which is a nice idea, but what if it's the wrong one... Looping All Day Long is just how I feel sometimes, nice flow and construction that develops well into the size it is. Very nice track, good enough to loop all day long too, with a good pace that fits into my day just right. And my own personal daemons like it too, so it can't be bad!-)
Follow the Leader sounds like a bit of a motley crew of musicians paying tribute to some overblown, temperamental leader of a crazy nation state. If it isn't happening as I write, it surely has been the case in our turmoil of history. Doubly damned is the Blind Idiot, not a very charitable mix of fate to be sure, but actually a very understanding and sympathetic track. But truth is as truth is, if that's the unfortunate state somebody finds themselves in, so be it.
8 Bit Rebel Cowlick a fine track of electronic melange and a peculiar title, even for this album. Have you ever been licked by a cow, let alone a rebellious one! Followed seductively by Catch the Wind, more fun than being licked by an ungulate beast. Wind is an invisible wonder to a child, a strange sensation in a world of wonder. Then you grow up and it becomes part of life and no longer worthy, so it seems apart from now, of consideration.
Build the Leader is democracy gone mad in its representational form, that it happens and generally fails effectively is maybe the point. Are our leaders the collective responsibility of whom we elect to play our role in the political world arena? If the following was anything to go by, some valid construction needed to come into play sooner rather than later, if it's not already too late. Cool track, nicely representational.
Agnostic Feeling is something I can relate to intellectually and I think to some degree spiritually too. I am a heretic by choice, but also by not wanting to be a sheep in the metaphorical sense. That is not enough for me, to be one of the herd. Cracking track, that sums it up for me, quite intense and poignant. Nice little ending. Which brings us to Inaccurate Mask. The Perfecti would disguise themselves and play an acceptable role while harbouring hidden senses of gnosticism, and this is indicative of the face I play to the world, a world that wouldn't and doesn't understand even when I am avoiding obfuscation. I have an inability to tolerate fools gladly, I'm afraid to admit.
Run rabbit, run. Nice little track, and off-kilter nursery rhyme for sure!-) Next Year Another Trouble, could as an annual epitaph apply to this planet for ever without doubt. That that is unfortunate is probably one of the biggest understatements I have made on this site. As a track, and to divert me from rambling on about world politics, it is a fine concoction of strangeness, deja vu in musical form. And it applies itself just as well retrograde, like my double Saturn return. Unfortunate mathematics and predominance of economics justifying the killing of innocent people. Ooops, sorry said I wasn't going to ramble. The Farewell Song is the end and will be for ever more, a quaint, peace-at-last, tone to it and a sensation of relief that the purgatory we find ourselves in, some more than others, has finally come to an end. Interesting album.
