about

Can't say a lot about this track cause its Ray's and Tim's baby .. but when i heard the finished mixed was blown away .. rang Ray up "man Frequencies sounds like a fight between a car and a truck and the car wins!!" .. if Spielberg ever remakes Duel he's GOTTA use this track! Action plus. Still pissed off no one has noticed the Price Jammy moment i stuck in at .46 sec's

lyrics

This quiet is offering frequencies
Louder than any fucking dBs
It’s painting in oils, it’s painting in mud
It’s painting in pus, it’s painting in blood
There’s the lesser Gods and the lesser devils
Hiding in the cupboards of all the different levels
Scratching like a pick along Blackie’s strings
Scratching at my throat, I shout, I can’t sing

Ha!
Ha!

And I lie, and I lie, yeah I lie up to the sky
It’s a reflex, a context, let the bile ride
That’s better

Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Ah, frequencies
Oh!

I see spiders everywhere
It’s not their legs I fear
It’s just, it’s just, their patience I swear

Oh, there’s the piss, there’s the vinegar, the chips on the dish
Oh, do you really ever know what the flavour is
It’s the oil and the newspaper soaking up the grist
So scallop up the taters like a textured kiss

Oh, it’s a nightmare even Cronos couldn’t dream up
The nightmare only stops with the cup, oh yeah
Frequencies
Yeah!

I see spiders everywhere
It’s not their legs I fear
It’s just, it’s just, their patience I swear

Frequencies
Frequencies

Frequencies
Frequencies
Frequencies

Oh, I’m a frequent visitor
A frequent liar
I frequently set my mind on fire
Frequencies
I frequent all those lesser places
Free my synaptic spaces
I’m a frequent visitor
A frequent liar
I frequently set my mind on fire
Frequencies
