The Dispossessed Verse 1: 1. The vultures circling my head Not sure how long I’ve got My body’s made of water Skin cracks but hair is soft 2. Felt someone touch my forehead but no, it’s just the sand My eyes feel sore and burning I’m turning into dust Prechorus: She’s out there caught up in the wind lost exile surrounded by sins Starvation, she’s far from her kin The wall the wall the wall the wall the wall is up Chorus: the body, Sexual freedom Yin yang,stems (from) mother’s labour The wall, …. the dispossessed Break: Spread doubt!

Spirit of Man Intro George wore a lot of black His hat soaked up the night Silver rings adorned his hands (there’s)Skulls on every one Nothing under his kilt. Trouble when he’s drunker Good night Tipsy You know he's gunning for the whisky Burst in the bar and said put your hands up - put your hands up - Show me what you got. He burst in the bar, and his kilt was fire Slavic vampire voice like iron Chorus I am the spirit of man uh oh oh oh he took me by the hand and oh oh oh oh he stared in my eyes Verse In a crowded bar with music He holds on to the back of your neck earings hanging skulls that dangle down Drinking whiskey like religion Leatherface and well worn creases stares into my eyes And he says, "now chorus break: Ohhh, when he gets drunk He gets intense, words get blunt and Ohhh, I feel his breath, yeah he's saying... la la la la ... And he's saying.... Spirit of man Chorus

about

Also available on Blocsonic records here : blocsonic.com

Every night I dream that I'm stuck in a small metal cage.
They'll never let me out. Never.
I scream into the bars, knowing full well that the more I scream, the more my sanity slips out of my grasp.
They'll never let me out. Never.
Am I even human anymore?
Am I just disrupted code in a hopelessly degraded hive mind?
Am just a glitch or is this how I was meant to be?
Am I even human anymore?

Welcome to 2021 people! Where are we going?

about

Louis Lingg and the Bombs Paris, France

Louis Lingg and the Bombs are goddamn punk-rock-garage-electro-big beat-pop-anarcho saviours of the 2 and half minute pop song. The bombs they throw are musical, they come from Paris (they could only come from Paris!) and they'll grab you and demand your instant attention.
Their sound is a mix of ultra-political anarchic punk rock and fizzing children's nursery rhyme riot-pop. Formed in 2006!!!!
