pills, needles, drug adiction
another day in this lifless grey city
another day in useless fucking life
will i ever see a light at the end of this tunnel?
or will my days fade to pieces of bleak nothing
i try to calm my panicked mind
i take anything to numb myself
alcohol and narcotics
just to feel at ease with life
and yet another pointless sunrise
to mock my continued existence
it sings to me a song of pity
it shines on my failure, illuminates my worthlessness
can I ever get out of this hole i've dug?
down another empty urban street
the motionless lights seem so blurry now
the stars so close but far so away
as if my time is almost up...
the stars so far but so close
as if my time is almost up...

Opening with Abbey Lincoln's definitive rendition of unreleased Billie Holiday song, Left Alone (natch), you have to admire the confidence of any musician to riff over what was originally a Max Roach / Art Davis rhythm section and iconic Coleman Hawkins sax solo – let alone in infamously fudging-the-details DSBM. But such is the ambition (or youthful naïveté) on this masterwork of slow burning late nite metal. Grand, solemn, and astounding throughout. Not to be missed by early Sadness fans. Luke

This album is just incredible, majestical. Is that even a word? A true masterpiece, and one that I dont play that often so that it doesn't get overplayed and soften the blow you get each time fromthis heavy slab. halfmartian
