Gone

I’ve let you step inside my circle,
Is it really me in the end you see?
A bastard-child of a grown-up abortion?
Why am I so afraid to be?

What’s the price for being happy?
How could I possibly brawl for something?
And where is it going to leave me,
When I finally end up with nothing?

CHORUS:
Everything that I have done… it just all led up to nothing.
After all the debts I’ve paid… I would have hoped for something.

Let me put up with your burden.
In the end, what do you want me to be?
Blood licking and sorrow tonguing?
Goddamn, I’m so afraid to see.

How far to go until I am happy?
When will it stop feeling like nothing?
In the end, where does it all leave me,
when I finally end up with something?

CHORUS:
Everything that I have done… it just all led up to nothing.
After all the debts I’ve paid… I would have hoped for something.

And Rejoicingly I’m starting to pray,
that these excruciations would just die away.
But for long my emotions are gone.
Yet I know that Venlafaxine has finally won.

Everything that I have done… it just all led up to nothing.
(Rejoicingly I’m starting to pray…)
After all the debts I’ve paid… I would have hoped for something.
(That these excruciations would just die away.)
Everything that I have done… it just all led up to nothing.
(But for long my emotions are gone…)
After all the debts I’ve paid… I would have hoped for something.
(Yet I know that Venlafaxine has finally won.)

Finally gone.

Gone…

Miss Brenkster – May 09

That’s Eva Grender. She’s a native canadian, but currently lives in Ireland, because two years ago she applied there for a scholarship. Eva studies script-psychology and linguistics at the National University of Ireland in Maynooth. On mondays and wednesdays she works at the local cinema to get by and extend her music collection. To come down, Eva is listening to bands like The Shoe or Paperplain.

Last week she spotted our blog and that’s what she thought about:

First of all a cool web-appereance, these two guys have great intensions, but they should handle it one by one, otherwise they get killed by their laziness!

She’s dead right! I wish I could write continues, but it’s not so easy like it seems to be. For me it’s very hard to pick yourself up and concrete one of the countless phantasms out of your head… but this is not the end!

Faith No More kehren zurück!

Als ich heute mich in die tiefen Weiten des Fernsehens verbarrikadiert habe und mit halbem Ohr der Werbung lauschte, konnte ich kaum glauben was ich zu hören bekam. Faith No More auf dem Nova Rock Festival in Salzburg?! Ich fragte mich ob das ein schlechter Scherz sei, hat sich die Alternative-Rock Fraktion um Mike Patton doch 1997 einvernehmlich getrennt, und alle Mitglieder sich anderen Projekten zugewandt. Mike Patton kann allein mit Tomahawk, Fantômas und Peeping Tom schon drei Bands verzeichnen, von den vielen Kooperationen mit anderen Interpreten wie Björk fange ich gar nicht erst an.

Tatsächlich gewährte mir ein Einblick in ihre offizielle Website Einsichten um ihre derzeitige musikalische Lage… ich zitiere ihren offenen Brief,

Faith No More has always stood out as some sort of unique beast; part dog, part cat–its music almost as schizophrenic as the personalities of its members. When it all worked, it worked really well, even if the chemistry was always volatile. Throughout our 17years of existence, the mental and physical energy required to sustain this creature was considerable and relentless. Though amicable enough, when we finally split, we all followed paths seemingly destined to opposite ends of the universe.

Yet during the entire 10 years that have passed since our decision to break up we’ve experienced constant rumors and requests from fans and promoters alike. Nevertheless, for whatever reason, none of us kept in regular touch, much less to discuss any possibilities of getting together.

What’s changed is that this year, for the first time, we’ve all decided to sit down together and talk about it. And what we’ve discovered is that time has afforded us enough distance to look back on our years together through a clearer lens and made us realize that through all the hard work, the music still sounds good, and we are beginning to appreciate the fact that we might have actually done something right.

Meanwhile we find ourselves at a moment in time with zero label obligations, still young and strong enough to deliver a kickass set, with enthusiasm to not only revisit our past but possibly add something to the present. And so with this we’ve decided to hold our collective breaths and jump off this cliff….
BACK, GOD FORBID, INTO THE MONKEY CAGE!!!

We can only hope that the experience of playing together again will yield results erratic and unpredictable enough to live up to the legacy of FNM.
Who know where this will end or what it will bring up…only the future knows. But we are about to find out!

FAITH NO MORE are:
Mike Bordin, Roddy Bottum, Bill Gould, Jon Hudson and Mike Patton

–End–

Tatsächlich, mit 2009 kehren Faith No More zurück, touren erstmal durch die Welt und spielen ihr altes Zeug auf Rockfestivals. Doch das ist erst der Beginn. Ich freue mich schon zu sehen (oder viel mehr “hören”) wie die Zukunft der Band aussehen wird, vor allem bin ich schon irrsinnig gespannt neues Material von ihnen zu zelebrieren. Gleichzeitig hoffe ich allerdings auch, dass die Rückkehr von FNM nicht Mike Pattons hervorragendes Bandprojekt Tomahawk beeinträchtigen wird, welches mir schon sehr ans Herz gewachsen ist.

Ich bin auf jeden Fall in jeder Hinsicht angetan.
