Everything you could ever want and more
Just like a package laid at your front door
Before too long you’re in way too deep
With that company that you keep
No way to vanish, No where to hide
Challenge accepted , enjoy your ride
Now everyone knows where the hell you been
With one look in your eyes and the condition you’re in
I can see all the dreams haven’t found you
I can see all the things all around you
I can see all the fiends they surround you
I can see all your dreams fade away
What would you want for your very own
A house built of glass and a hand full of stones
Live your life just how you see fit
Moving faster now, Time to get on with it
No brakes to pump, No end in sight
Made all your choices, wrong or right
Yet it ain’t no secret where the hell you been
With one look in your eyes and the condition you’re in
I can see all the dreams haven’t found you
I can see all the things all around you
I can see all the fiends they surround you
I can see all your dreams waste away

Reincarnation
Is part of the circle
Of karmic eternality
Our souls are magnetic
Drawn to each other
Like channels that flow to the sea
Ashes are burning
Turning dust into dust
Lay to rest your weary soul
This life was good times
Theres no regrets now
You never tried to retreat
Burned it at both ends
Live in the moment
Choice was yours to repeat
Ashes are burning
Turning dust into dust
Lay to rest your wicked soul
Ill see you in the next life
Wont be tomorrow
Wont be some day
Maybe in another world
Or some cosmic astral plane
Ill see you in the next life

Overloaded-Generation-Intellectual-Provocations
Artificial Ultra-Intelligence –
Interrogations allowed by Ignorance
Extensive searching and algorithms
What you desire is on display
All you purchase, point of interest
Feeds the market for those who slay
It’s made to keep the slaves in line
Overrated And Commercialized-Reverse Engineered
And Corrupted
Artificial Ultra-Intelligence
Interrogations allowed by ignorance
Institutions, full of children
Unaffected and ashamed to pray
An open playground for helter skelter
While politicians take rights away
It’s how they keep the slaves in line
The treasury prints the money
To keep the slaves in line
Be a good slave Spend your money
Overrated And Commercialized-Reverse Engineered
And Corrupted
Artificial Ultra-Intelligence
Interrogations allowed by ignorance

Come Get Some

Remember the time
When the dreams were alive
Within reach and alive
Reach and alive
Broke all the chains
And washed the blood stains
No hiding the pain
Could not hide the pain
An American dream
Ain’t always what it seems
Take a look at the scene
Take a look at the fiends
Slide down with me
To a little ole place where everybody’s free
And it’s all good where I come from
Come get some
Slide down with me
Where you can be you and I can be me
And it’s all good what may come
Come get some
Why can’t we agree?
That we will always disagree
I’m not taking a knee
I just need you to see
Let’s cut to the scene
Yes, we sold it on the silver screen
It was time to believe
It was something to see
The American Dream
It ain’t always what it seems
Cause free ain’t exactly free
If you know what I mean Yeah
Slide down with me
To a little ole place where everybody’s free
And it’s all good where I come from
Come get some
Slide down with me
Where you can be you and I can be me
And it’s all good what may come
Come get some
As I scurry to the top of the mountain
And gaze upon the devastation I see below
One nation under purgatory
Where liberty and justice devolves
Come get some

Live Love Laughter

Engaging all of those in celebration
Pour yourself a glass of blood red wine
Penetrate with little hesitation
Ambitiously relentlessly entwined
All the cells collide
In interstellar space
Where the angels cry
And falls from grace
The energy of everything surrounds you
Push and pull the molecules and light
Parallel of all this different matter
It’s guiding everything you have in sight
All thee cells collide
In interstellar space
And the angels fly
Without a trace
Live for tomorrow
Love without fear
Cherish the Laughter
And all that is real
Live for the moment
Love everyday
Remember the Laughter
When it all fades away
Navigate this instrumental vessel
Calculate equations, checking twice
Reaching out beyond your expectations
Searching for a bird of paradise
The cells collide
In interstellar space
Where the angels fly
Without a trace
Live for tomorrow
Love without fear
Cherish the Laughter
And all that is real
Live for the moment
Love everyday
Remember the Laughter
When it all fades away
Live Love Laughter
Is all we’re after
Where the worlds colide
In Intesteller space
Where the angles cry
When they fall from grace

Slide and get it right
Yeah we're all here for one infectious night
Time is on our side
Come along with me and let it ride
Could I break these chains
and wear the crown
Undecided
Slay baby stay
Everything is going to go your way
Sway lady sway
I don't care what anybody say
Could I break these chains
and should I wearr the crown
Undecided
Would you bring me up
so you can tear me down
Undecided
I wanna ride the wave
I wanna get high
Where the sun and the tide
collide everyday
I wanna ride the wave
I wanna ride high
Like Eddie Aikau
In Waimea Bay
Were the young and the Undecided

Pity Pie
04:28
|
|||
|
Can you see I’m feeling down
And somewhat suicidal
Now that all my heroes are gone
And the world just keeps on spinning
Like a turntable to this song
My mind is so toxic
I don’t know what to feel
So hard to tell anymore what is real
Let go of all my possessions
And put my ego aside
Reached out in desperation
Cause everything else I had tried
And my tears kept on pouring
Like an apocalyptic rain
As all the angels descended
Smiled and washed away
Cause I’ve been so alone
And I’ve been so afraid
Yes I know the world is ending
And I know who I should blame
Guess all I can do is
Stand and wave goodbye
You get one chance to live
But many ways to die
When I’m hopeless and helpless
When I’m shrouded in shame
When I’m losing my battle
And demons scream my name
They say
Just eat your pity pie
The crust will make you cry
Filled with the hurt inside
It’s hard to swallow
With spirit wash it down
Embodied by the sound
Tonight the night, tomorrows gone away
Slice up your pity pie
The crust will make you cry
Filled with the hurt inside
It’s hard to swallow
With spirit wash it down
Turn up the sacred ground
Tonight the night, tomorrows gone away

OMG, late to the party but this is some of the best occult infused doom stoner tackle I've ever heard. Reference points include Sabbath (obvs), especially with the Ozzy-esque vocals but there's also the melodiousness of early Heep mixing with a more contemporary occult rock sound. It starts in the 70's and makes it to the present day. The riffs are huge but it's their way with a hook that elevates this from your average doom/stoner fare. Very wonderful indeed!

I picked this one up in advance of a holiday trip. In these times I always need some softer music for my companion which rocks only a little. But SPIRAL GURU's cool 70s influenced psychedelic rock even rocks a bit more. Usually this is not my genre, stuf like Spiritual Beggars or the like, but SPIRAL GURU is definitely charming, maybe because of the female vocals. Further the songs are not too psychedelic, they have a solid catchiness. Check "Signs" or "Oracle".

The Woes of a Mortal Earth

Honestly, I hated this band when I first heard their Metal Blade Records debut; I thought the riffs were cool, but the vocals weren't my thing. All that has changed upon hearing this fantastic album, and it's now in daily rotation. Everything about this album is above par, and the vocals are one of the best elements of the group now. If you don't add this to your collection, then you're crazier than I am 😂
