CAMPING IN THE RAIN
A field in England
Where the midges fly
Far from the pressures
Of the city life
Refugee tents
Under granite skies
Row upon row of
Disappointed eyes
Angry children
and a desperate wife
Whatever happened
To Mr Right
In the distance
There’s a patch of blue
maybe later there’ll be
something to do
We’re camping in the rain
We’re camping in the rain
Kill the boredom
With a game of cards
Play Eye Spy
in the back of the car
Refugee tents
Under granite skies
Row upon row of
Disappointed eyes
We’re camping in the rain x 4
A field in England
Where the midges fly
Far from the pressures
Of the city life
Angry children
and a desperate wife
Whatever happened
To Mr Price
We’re camping in the rain x4

EXILE
Where do you go from here?
Where do you go from here?
Now that house is not your home
Where do you go from here?
Where do you go from here?
Now your lies have been exposed
On your way to who knows where
Passing strangers stop to stare
All your friends are far behind
Fading pictures in your mind
Where do you go from here?
Where do you go from here?
Now the doors are firmly closed
Where do you go from here?
Where do you go from here?
bleeding feet on broken stones
In the worst month of the year
Cheap hotels and worthless tears
Under blankets worn and thin
Bones jut out through sallow skin
And the king has been deposed
Now the borderline has closed
Try to sing a cheerful song
What won’t kill you makes you strong

CONCRETE AND GLASS
She said she used to like it in this part of town
All the buildings going up, and the buildings coming down
She’s walking around
with a permanent frown
It’s getting me down
We used to go and walk along these streets
To the Pepsi cafe, for coffee and sweets
But now it’s all glass and steel
It feels like a cheat
It’s getting me down
Bought my Fender from that shop over there... a long time ago on Charing X Road
It’s changing... but not for the better
She said she used to like it in this part of town
All the buildings going up and the buildings coming down
All the glass and steel is making her frown
It’s getting me down
There used to be a club where they played funk and soul
Beer and red, red wine
Getting out of our heads, and going home... on the night bus
She said she used to like it in this part of town
All the buildings going up and the buildings coming down
She’s walking ‘round with a permanent frown
It’s getting ME down
Walk the streets on summer nights
Beer and wine & feel alright
While the sparrows sing in the dawn
Just hanging around
Just hanging around

A band that I would imagine playing their intense,energetic and magnetic sounding noise in a small room would literally floor you.Just wonderful

Howling At A Concrete Moon
by Pynch
Hugely hooky rock & roll from London nods gently toward Britpop while retaining a sharp indie edge.
go to album
A fascinating mash-up of jazz sensibility with Krautrock motorik on an album that mesmerizes with repetition.
go to album
The songs on the latest from Absolutely Free feel as expansive as a cloudless sky, with ringing guitars and bright-eyed melodies.
