The Songs:
Home in the Suburbs - The reality doesn't always meet the expectation. A song about suburban anxiety featuring a nice solo by Dirk. One of the first songs we wrote together.
Boys Dont Lie U2 meets The Who meets Morrissey. The frustration and confusion of young love.
History Never Repeats A failed romance, a second chance? Moody and hypnotic number which features the Rubber Choir on the outro. Dirk plays Bongo guitar on this one.
The Girl with Something Extra We wrote this after watching Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
Dont You Listen? - Country-tinged song (by way of R.E.M.) about the way we dont talk to each other anymore.
Tin City - Husker Du and the New York Dolls on this one. Loud, fast, grinding guitars tell the story of living in a trailer park, driving a junker car and just getting by.
For Someone Else - Missing someone who hasnt even left yet and dreading the passage of time.
Living in Luxury Unemployed and not caring. This Kinks-influenced track is short and to the point.
The Big Swim Who? Isolation, desperation, and a catchy chorus. What could be better? Watch out for the wood chipper in the middle bit!
Too Close to Us - Echoes of XTCS Punch and Judy. This one has a beat that keeps turning around. Features a melody line based on a sample of Tonys neighbors cat!
Only Fools Fall in Love Based on the theme of the 50s song Why Do Fools Fall in Love? this tune is about a guy who thinks hes cool and not jealous of anyones relationship (sure, not too much!)
Vanity Affair The ultimate love song, influenced by the Pistols and the Damned. I wrote and played rhythm guitar on this one. Turn it up and watch your speakers melt! Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
Hope you like it! Regards, Fred
