Native To The Void

FiTZ If you know Me & My Shadow, "Native to the Void" will be both familiar grounds & new terrain. The writing is as strong as ever: a commentary on the world - sometimes angry, sometimes eerily mellow or calm. The music furthers the otherworldly atmosphere, shifting between bold riffs & minimalistic electronica, shy acoustic guitars & funky beats. It may be the band name or the cover art, but these songs really make me feel like I'm staring at the world from a distance. From my own little planet. Favorite track: Ruminate.

ketchupkommando I cannot get over how good the latest offering from everyone's favorite Martian is. The title track sucks you in and keeps you firmly enthralled up through Sleepless. and you desperately do not want to return. It's the soundtrack of a seeker, trying to find sense in the wreckage of the modern world.

10/10 will listen again and again, etc. Favorite track: Echoes And Ashes.

Pleasantries are empty lies Sycophants need stimuli Leaving morons misty eyed Around your dying sun Nothing ventured, nothing gained Signal from the mother brain One more day we shall remain Our aura you destroyed, playing with your toys Native to the void Misery and joy, methods you've deployed Native to the void Well we pissed in the wind, but now we see the end Refuse to roll the rock right up your hill again But they're hypnotized by what you've spun Live to live under the gun One more day round your dying sun

Let go, I need to be alone I need to feel control Let go, I need to be alone I need to feel control of this body and this soul Let go Let go, I need to be alone I need to feel control, need to feel control of this body and this soul, body and this soul let go I know the war inside grows In the valley of unknnowns, the valley of unknowns With a heart of stone, to providence I'm prone Let go Now it is my turn. I'm gonna watch the skyline fall. I'm gonna see it burn, this mortal coil's thrall. I've been coming 'part up at the seams from reality to dreams, reality dreams to the silent centerpiece when I can't feel no peace I scream Oh really? Does beyond that gilded door Lie the hope of something more Not just ashes and scorned memories? Now it is my turn. I'm gonna watch the skyline fall. I'm gonna see it burn, this mortal coil's thrall. Now it is my turn. I'm gonna watch the skyline fall. I'm gonna see it burn, and I'll burn with it all. Let go, I need to be alone I need to feel control Let go, I need to be alone And I have no control of this body and this soul Let go Let go

Argus Eyes 05:24
Those who tried, they're all dead They've got eyes in the back of their head When you lied I saw red I got eyes in the back of my head Soul-less drive, alive for the mission Extraordinary rendition It's all been done, nothing left unsaid And there's eyes in the back of their head Tone it down or wind up dead They've got eyes in the back of their head Soul-less drive, alive for the mission Extraordinary rendition Argus eyes Before you go, think instead They got eyes in the back of their head Young and dumb, the quick and the dead They think there's eyes in the back of their head Extraordinary rendition Argus eyes

Ruminate 05:44
We see the chaos of the changing of the guard We see pendulous swings of the seraphim wings We see it play out in pictures informing us who we are We see Ruminate on a thing Ruminates upon you Say it again, won't make it true We see the blowing of trumpets the sky burning like a scroll We see them caught up in clouds, they're all raptured now We see the winepress of vengeance, the wrath pouring from the bowls We see Staring at the ceiling I see patterns repeating Signals I'm receiving In static, find the meaning
6.
Trip Hop 04:33
You'd do well to shut your mouth You'd do well to just stop typing You'd do well to hear me out You'd do well to just stop fighting All the songs that they sing They won't mean a thing Cause an eye for an eye left you blind The garden will grow You'll reap what you sow When you trip on what you've thrown down the line In the basest of places The familiar faces Running their races Falling behind And the sin goes where the wind blows And your friends go out the window They're gunning for the end though And they've all lost their minds These bastards will enslave you They're proclaimers of their virtue Serve up your heavy chains With a cup of shame But they'll eat every word they say Feel all the shame that they've relayed
7.
Footsteps walking ghosts a' knocking On the water out of sight Talk to me through the gloom Breaking darkness, spark of light Well they say "when it rains, it pours" Sleepless I lie silent in my bed Echoes of the oceans in my head Sunrise, two weary eyes We spent days in a wilderness A world that we despised I pray to calm the storm And make my way to shore And fear no more
