Verse 1 We’re deader than disco We’re deader than disco -oh oh We’re generally fucked We pissed it away We pissed it away iyay yay ay Look at your face just look at your face yaeah iyeah We’re generally fucked Just rot and decay Just rot and decay iyay yay ay Now we’re drownin now we’re drowning Chorus We’re stuck in nowhere land Nowhere thoughts and nowhere doubts We’re stuck in nowhere land With you We’re stuck in nowhere land Fucked up place where no-one shouts No No No No Verse 2 We burnt through our world We burnt through our wor-iya iya We’re Generally fucked We watch it all die We’re watchin it die-aye aye We’re covered in blood We’re soaking in blu-ud We’re generally fucked We’re watchin’ em cry We’re watching em cry aye aye aye Now i’m drowning now I’m drowning aaaaahgh Chorus We’re stuck in nowhere land nowhere thoughts and nowhere doubts We’re stuck in nowhere land With you We’re stuck in nowhere land Fucked up place where no-one shouts No No No No Bridge Well I guess It’s the end of an era Well I guess I just want it to be over Chorus We’re stuck in nowhere land We’re not aloud to Scream and shout We’re stuck in nowhere land With you We’re stuck in nowhere land Fucked up place where no-one shouts No No No No

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! Don’t shout! Chorus

We're releasing this record with the amazing record label, Blocsonic. We're big supporters of creative commons and you can download a cool pdf booklet here: blocsonic.com/releases/louis-lingg-and-the-bombs/nowhereland

In terms of songwriting, 2020 to 2021 has been the driest creative period of my life. ...And all the single people without children posting about the 5 new concept albums they just wrote on Facebook in just one bloody week hasn't helped at all! Honestly! Some people seem to be positively inspired by being in a hellish lockdown!

Anyway, I felt completely drained of all creativity and hope. I discovered that a pandemic, with no hope of ever coming out the other end with any semblance of a decent life, is not a creative situation for me. Suprise suprise!

I normally write songs professionally for clients. So I did finish all the outstanding songs and mixes that I had to do for work that I had already got before Covid hit us but I didn't feel any creative impulse at all to do music. What’s the point of music if there’s no society anymore? Culture needs a society to hang on to. Music's about communication and there's no communication in a completely alienated population.

In the end, by force of attrition, I forced myself to write again. I wrote a couple of songs. Nowhereland was the best one. (I had actually started it before Covid but the lyrics really took on meaning in the bleakness of the pandemic.) We recorded Nowhereland and another song, No Joke, in our rehearsal studio in May and June 2020. The lyrics are pretty brutal, fragmented and disjointed because I had to show the callous and barbaric reality of the situation. The music is bright and sunny though! I actually think that it’s one of our best songs. It’s certainly the best thing we’ve done in terms of production… so that’s something considering than we did it with no budget at all! My friend Lewis said that Nowhereland sounds like a worldwide pandemic anthem! That’s the cunning plan!

about

Louis Lingg and the Bombs image

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!!!! ... more
