To tell you the truth I DO hear something like 'phonic' but I can't come up with something that makes sense as a whole, I'm not convinced he says 'waves' after that and i also think that he says 'sign' instead of 'psycho'.

'Terror' as the very first word sounds right as well.

'Simmering your face' ---> :)
'Ever-lifting powers cross the mental melting bowls (biggest haha, but I really can hear that! Smile
And then '... ... without no-one, don't you know'.
I hear 'melting' and 'no-one', the others not very clearly. How about 'Ever-lifting powers cross the minds of melting fools' :lol: . Seriously I hear an 'of' before 'melting' though. What the hell was he thinking?

EDIT: How about 'shivering your face'?

Not sure if this is new news or not, but apparently the band is back together and looking for gigs

The new track wasn't bad at all by the way.

I just noticed I'd written them on the wrong Myspace site, sent another inquiry.

Didn't like either of those two more recent songs, mostly cos they don't sound anything like they used to; so it just sounds like a completely different band...

Well I've been waiting and waiting and waiting... I even mailed all the lyrics we have so far, but it seems it just too fucking hard to get back isn't it. Pissed off.

I don't think you'll receive an answer.. They would have included the lyrics on the recent CD reissue they made themselves if they wanted to. It seems it's not a very important issue for the band. Too bad for the fans.

Ok, the vinyl reissue should be out now, and supposed to include the lyrics, so if anyone "YOU" know is getting it could they take a photo of the lyrics sheet or type them out for the benefit of the many, so that we may evolve as a species.

I think I was in contact with two guys from the band on FB some years ago, sending the snippets of lyrics etc., no help in any way. Luckily dollar signs woke them from their lethargic slumber.

Also, wow, didn't remember it was SO long ago since we started trying to work these out :)

I was supposed to receive the reissue yesterday, but there was something wrong with the info on the package and I couldn't pay for it. Hopefully, next week I'll have it in my hands. I'm kinda curious about the lyric sheet too. I'll scan it and post it here if it is included.

I have tried to scan the inserts of the CD. Hope this works.

I like the bonus tracks as well. Not that much different from 80's metal feel. Vocals are not that "high", so that is a bonus for me too, although i really like the EP very much! Nice reissue all together for me.

Too many crazy lines there for sure. At least you got the "psychophonic waves" part right, heh.

Got it today. Pretty minimal as a whole, lyrics on all songs, a small 2009 interview that doesn't reveal anything at all and a few photos. The sound is good enough. The last (live) track on b-side could have been omitted, it sounds like shit.

As for the bonus tracks, they're 00's material. Pretty calmed down compared to the EP with a slight commercial edge. No helium high vocal parts. I'll stick to the a-side.
