Robert Inhuman, about "Los Angeles"
The first segment of this song was written in the summer of 2006, after my first substantial tour to Los Angeles. The sound behind this spoken intro is a live recording of Babyland from the show we did with them; Realicide's first visit to The Smell. I had never heard of Babyland before, but the show was really memorable and they gave us all their CDs. Their album "The Finger" became somewhat of a temporary soundtrack to my life falling terribly apart as soon as I got "home" from that tour, meanwhile desperately trying to stay in touch with the friends I'd met out in the LA area. This gradually led to a lot of experiences that would periodically build up and tear down my romanticized attitude about being out there, far away from where I was previously from.
lyrics
“…right… but nothing seems to change… sit around waiting for a holiday…
I’ve got a mess I can’t reject inside of me…” (Babyland 15 July 2006, at The Smell)
say it easy but you're so far away - I have no idea when I’ll be back
my only chance, my only idea, out of reach, of all things by physical distance
the power to dissolve my interest (in the past)
I hope the distance can force me to find a way, I gotta get out, I gotta get back...
I'm not looking for handouts - I know I'm too old to beg
though I ain't got much to eat - but still not sucking down drugs
did I fuck up my chance with you cos I'm not drunk every night
I did everything I said I'd do but the shit you said to me didn't last
I don't give a fuck what I must taste like
when you got who knows what up your nose
and really fucking fast change your plan for tomorrow
as long as you're warm it don't mean shit if I'm cold
punch me in my chipped teeth - I feel good as fuck tonight
got a destination and a dare to set shit right
you know I thought I'd be dead - I remember when I thought I was
but I got a reason and a energy straight ahead
gonna be homeless but I got no pain just cos
I'm coming to LA and I'm gonna see you there alright
my body is a bullet no matter what the fuck I look like
got a destination and the heart to hate where I've been
I'm coming to LA and I don't care what happens
I don't care what happens...
Girl Talk for people that think GT is as spicy as a bowl of water. Brutal beats. Worth it. If you liked Alec Empire’s The Destroyer this is the follow up album you’ve been waiting for. Wormgarden
It was a bit too much and samey by the end for me, but if you like dark atmospheres, if you are really interested in sound design or you enjoy the challenge of music that tries to wear you down, you should definitely check this record out.
I loved the echo-drenched drums and percussion and synths and hard to describe sounds on this, but it stays with the same sonic ideas for too long for me to enjoy to try to withstand the harsh wall of sounds minisculebarber
