Horsehead Nebula 
(music: MOI) 

 

Affect as Information 
(music: MOI words: Lontraki) 

Flashes of a present past,  
Crashes along your back  

Body, encrypted sore  
Mind, a beggar with no soul  

Images of exploitation,  
There's nothing here but disturbances and flares  
Some trick they call "affect as information"  
It leads you to conclude that you're not there 
 

The Nazi in Me
(music and words: Alex Spalck) 

I know that under the cover of darkness 
I’m harbouring a ten-headed monster 
Someone that is feeding on scraps of vileness 
and is poisoning my blood and my mind... 

I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Liar in me 
I hate… The Coward in me 
I hate… The Bully in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me... 

I try to kill him every hour of every day 
And deprive him of oxygen and theory 
But at the end of each desperate battle 
He rears his ugly head and strikes again… 

Now that I’m almost at the end of my slow descent into the night 
I can see the trail of pain and murder that people like me have left behind 
I have no excuse for my bystanding, my guilt is written in my genes 
I follow in a long line of predators, I’m branded for life… 

I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Liar in me 
I hate… The Coward in me 
I hate… The Bully in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me… 
 

New Moon 
(music: MOI)

 

Worst Case Scenario
(music: MOI)

 

Cold Desert Blues
(music: MOI words: Lontraki)

All around the sounds they float like foam, 
echoes of the town no ebb no flow 
Every day blurs into the next, 
can't breath tonight though it's all right 

All the creepy creatures settled in your mind, 
for a long time it's been colonized 
Drive your car till the end of the road, 
you've been trying day by day 
you'd been trying this before 

Take your tears, your lips of disgrace 
your broken back, your dependent pace


The Body Keeps the Score
(music: MOI words: Lontraki)

When shots backfire 
getting to the core 
Dreams are hard-wired 
the body keeps the score

 

Brutal People
(music: MOI words: Lontraki)

Words in my mind 
still floating still rolling 
The purpose behind 
I know may be feral and blowing 

Murderer. She slips away. 

Between the lines 
the sentence is spoken 
Like beaten felines 
my nerves are sizzling I'm broken

 

The Thing
(music: MOI words: Lontraki)

Growing concern as you feel 
crushed by the Ceiling 
All devices at your will 
you're almost dead but you get this quiver 

Fast on your feet my friend 
Fast get your beat or leave it 
When holy men they spell the end 
You start to dance, hard to believe it 

Dumb brains with their sharp wit 
so self-aware and clever 
How much longer are you going to sit 
with this wretched bunch of haver 

Fast on your feet my friend 
Fast get your beat or leave it 
Wear your shades and fly ahead 
To the bright highest high of lovers 

Fast on your feet my friend 
Fast get your beat or leave it

 

The Nazi in Me (ask@77 version) 
(music and words: Alex Spalck) 

I know that under the cover of darkness 
I’m harbouring a ten-headed monster 
Someone that is feeding on scraps of vileness 
and is poisoning my blood and my mind... 

I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Liar in me 
I hate… The Coward in me 
I hate… The Bully in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me... 

I try to kill him every hour of every day 
And deprive him of oxygen and theory 
But at the end of each desperate battle 
He rears his ugly head and strikes again… 

Now that I’m almost at the end of my slow descent into the night 
I can see the trail of pain and murder that people like me have left behind 
I have no excuse for my bystanding, my guilt is written in my genes 
I follow in a long line of predators, I’m branded for life… 

I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me 
I hate… The Liar in me 
I hate… The Coward in me 
I hate… The Bully in me 
I hate… The Nazi in me… 

These depraved and cancerous ideas 
will evaporate, deflagrate, disintegrate 
into blackholes where they belong 
where they always belonged
