Elisha Seely Danny's got some fine vocal range and this mix of funky electronica and rock. With the personal and introspective lyrics, it falls together as a feel-good ride through fear and TV-lit-sewers. Favorite track: The Button.

jimtheschoolgirl Great record, all sorts of stuff going on, do as the man says and listen through headphones so you don't miss any of it. Favorite track: The Tree, The Switchblade & The Engraver.

inRemote Nothing encapsulates disdain for archaic, decrepit human obstacles than "we can't wait for you to die" Favorite track: Bowling Green Massacre.

Anchors Down 02:57
This girl's trouble I feel her on my sweat She nibbles on her lip and takes her grip She said it tastes like honey And I bet she's got teeth that are older than me She's soldering me to the frame to the frame to the frame She is a bad girl and she knows it She's drunk again That pesky sailor anchors down a flight of stairs That stare right back at you She is a sinner and though alarm bells they ring thrice I'll pay no heed to this advice A leaf I'll tear, her book will bear one less mapping to her demise But a postcard sent will have our names on it Look here I know I've got no tattoos (I'm blank as a new cassette) And I know the guys you usually use (Have got more ink than a gazette) She's a poison to kill a poison She is an arsehole And you know it You're drunk again That same wee fella brings you down a flight of stairs And back to start again This girl's trouble I feel her on my sweat She nibbles on her lip and shakes her hips People seem healthy till you know them It's personal That pesky sailor set the course Of course I could contest but he knows what's best Look here I know I've got no tattoos (I'm blank as a new cassette) And I know the guys you usually use (Have got more ink than a gazette) She's a poison to kill a poison

If it all comes to an end I know which artifacts I'd send Hurtling with great purpose directly into the sun I've got nothing to hide and it's not for the sake of my pride You see, something has to have lived for that something to have died The term legacy's a stretch, write it on an Etch-a-Sketch And let the seismic events do their work in one last wretch I've tried positivity but real life got the best of me I'm far to lazy to arrange or consider option B It's quite amazing how one thing Can reduce your hands from tools into something you can wring Clock out early from your shift Ignore your colleagues in the lift It's time to relocate to the border of social order Wear a ring on a bootlace but keep your standing orders in place You need to keep your flat if you want a spare room to deface (Singin') I was born into this, everything thing turns to shit The band that you love are playing the pub your ex works at But you've got nothing to hide And you have got nobody by your side Option A was taken in your stride It's quite amazing how one thing Can reduce your hands from tools into something you can wring
4.
It's been so long since I had a crush Hey you My heart has got this pen in a rush Hey you I'm dying for a kiss of your lips Hey you I'm dying for a grab of your hips Hey you You're in my hair, my lungs, my bones I won't settle for another I'd rather be alone This sentimant is set to turn around in your favour That tree, that switchblade and the engraver Everything you do is success Hey you The way your figure deals wae that dress Hey you Although I'll never walk through this with you Want you to know there's just this one girl And it's you

Heavy Riddy 03:00
My friend told me a story But given my condition my mission dictated that I'd forget Everything everything Something of a tall tale it was It inspired me to rip a strip and inspect underneath the gauze To my surprise it had healed before my eyes The yarn he spun was one of yours a relayed account he realised You left air to be cleared and choking are the ones I hold dear The book that you read to our friends Was missing a few chapters so after my laughter died down I cringed At the thought that you got kicks out of this I should clarify my account But the morals lowered to do so are staying where they can surmount Though it's shitty, the only pity deserved Is credited to how content you are wae pity gained through truth swerved Your bullshit only charms the flies Those half truths are just as good as lies No more self doubt settlements to keep me running No more preperation for the cadence coming But living every day as the day I go and get her Is as crazy as the notion that I can't do better But it's time to find a balance 'cause I can't stay lonely Only one night starts the plight I've got to stay stoney Fuck all the politics and tricks that you've pulled And enjoy your empty success with the audience you've fooled.

I turned 18 the day after 9/11 So I turned my back on this sign the gods were giving One night I faced them their scorn burnt but left no tan Just this poorly rendered painting of a handsome man I got to thinking of other signs I may have missed Like hurricanes named after girls I shouldn't have kissed And if I payed heed would he be dimensions apart From the me with an escape route and a broken heart Arms coming out the walls Don't get response calls at all Twelve years late to the get your shite together show I had all access, VIP, seats in the front row On the first day I saw a birds wing get crushed by a bus It layed on it's back, calm and still, till the next one burst it's guts Arms coming out the wall Don't get response calls at all Nine months later The traitor shows me nothing I'm back in business once more Trading lore from the shop floor I once believed preconceived things were simpler No inner whimper based on logic I'll throw sticks Now I'll boast I believe in ghosts Arms coming out the wall Don't get response calls at all

Watchoo Do 03:17
Sitting here amongst this mess In a house by nothing more than address I try to pull the focus Every empty everywhere While my phone rings out right now I need it to fire out flares I tidy up before I settle down I feel the choke A gallery of things I broke One blur just leads another to another One thing that I do recall Ditching more fruitful plans in favour of this withdrawal And an essential overhaul As the debris clears networks in my brain Spark to life and build a bridge to incidents and timeframes Although it wasn't all bad I'm glad I cleared it all away And this monster's enjoyed his stay I will not watch this one decay So I plan my night before I settle down It's just me, this meal and all this clearer ground To avoid the grip of the slipstream I don't humour notions of what could have been I wave it off wae the bream That's all she wrote about last night That wee monster's in the stars and sleeping tight Now things they start to feel right I've left a messy night behind My gears should run and rarely grind I won't break down for any length of time So I plan my night before I settle down It's just me, a clear plate and the phone I found And it rings and it rings and it rings

Join in at the start of a song Four verses deep when everyone's stopped along I'm sorry but I was thinking too far ahead The light went red from green three times then green back to red I started a chat on bad weed then moved along My dad's mates are indifferent to lore of King Kong I gaurded my laughter on the long walk home And agreed wae myself I'm better off alone "I'd like to tank you all for coming tonight" Echoes through an empty room till you hit the light Missing days wae pals 'cause you were scared of the park Are memories that you can just shove in the dark I was too busy thinking of things to say To say the things I thought during the course of today Carefully composing tweets then deleting them Then later watch the numbers grow for the same thoughts from a friend Tried to stay aloof for some time But the truth came out wae the news of a new Dredd design Apologising as you choke on a piece of phlegm Is nutso considering you don't like them You hear the bomb that dropps when they have pulled out all the stops But not the friendly fire in the room The others there had more interesting things to share And points to reach before their fingers start to prune And their evening can presume You need to draw a line and find some friends who find the time To let you crawl through all the shite upstairs Don't be a prick about it But don't let them let you doubt it You bring down some great things from up there It's time you ended this nightmare

Pareidolia 02:36
At eight years old I chose what I was chose to do And called it destiny See over the years other sweets went in my mixture That tasted much better to me To understand why other options seemed reckless I had to join the occult The sigils spilled to show that I was just feckless In the year I became an adult No one depraved had walked on your grave It's just cold at this bus stop It wasn't a ghost or demonic host That caused this temprature drop But the bumps in the night Still take new shapes in my head And the light switch Ends its journey after I'm in bed As far as I know no telly's tried to kill me In my house on top of this Native American burial ground I brought the oars in, relied on a higher power And I started to drift away It took 30 trips around the sun to see its light I just built Rome today But Germanic pressure won't dispirit me No stepping on cracks of pre destined tracks Just walking on up the road And knocking on wood won't do any good With words that cannot forebode But the bumps in the night Still take new shapes in my head And the light switch Ends its journey after I'm in bed As far as I know no telly's tried to kill me In my house on top of this Native American burial ground.

The changes started to rattle his cage Though well accustomed with his rage The bodies piled three or four higher When after one he could retire, Until moonlight whistled his tune. Was this crisis the product of poor pay Or his eyebrow turning grey? The one thing keeping him a man Was the brush of her hand Until moonlight whistled his tune. The branches start to tussle He stirs his bed of leaves rustle Another lover, another clue; A slowly closing bullet wound. He found just as rings formed around Saturn The universe left him a pattern, His curse is his own, best be alone. Then moonlight whistled his tune. Before he hangs his wool coat one last time Without tempting silver bullet fate It dawns on him to go paw in paw is the only way Then moonlight whistles his tune.

The sting doesn't sink in till you stand back And see you've gone from one to twelve without skipping tracks One hundred billion people have come and gone So what's one more if nothing but another love song I don't want to tether weights But I have to dive on in I've been holding my breath since I learned to weigh in I can't wait to see the limbs torn from you And your priceless expression after they've uncaged the zoo While your quest for righteousness is met with laughter Your children don't deserve the consequence of disaster I don't want to tether weights But I have to dive on in I've been holding my breath since I learned to weigh in If you hold on to times that you once knew For that reason alone Please die It's time you shook that mortal coil You're better served as soil We can't wait for you to die You'll be remembered as a hurdle And when your eyeballs start to curdle We'll all be moving on Photo there on the mantle piece Despite the crease just underneath the vacant eyes of Denise The auld boy says it was the happiest day But the bride of honour just in shot's got something else to say I don't want to tether weights But I have to dive on in I've been holding my breath since I learned to weigh in If you hold on to times that you once knew For that reason alone Please die

It's all just fucking daydreams in the end With lots of little honours to defend A toe tag full of average grades is fathering this jack of all trades But the mother of all problems won't count me out See there's a bag of cats in me I wish I could drown at sea 'Cause they'll claw and scratch till I lift the hatch But I've grown to like it Maybe one fine day help will come my way But I'll be fucked if I'm going this alone And I'll promise her I'll promise her I'll win It's all just fucking daydreams in the end With lots of little honours to defend A toe tag full of average grades is fathering this jack of all trades But the mother of all problems won't count me out My attention span's easy to please Illustrate my point wae keys I get lost at fares, never seen cross haires Not for want of trying Effort's in my heart needing a kick start But it't budge so until then It's all just fucking daydreams in the end With lots of little honours to defend A toe tag full of average grades is fathering this jack of all trades But the mother of all problems won't count me out

Sad Songs 02:25
My gut's between my shoulder blades I pray no conviction's wrong A curse from each decision made means the death of another song I can't put on a movie or play something groovy With you on my dressing gown My chest will combust if once sat on this I learn what drove old Dixie down These stabs of though that's got my gut taught Aren't cutting me any slack Endurance assures me your concept of boundaries Would break this camel's back I would kill to embrace you I know just to taste you Would take me to our home town But if I swallow my pride one more time I'd surely drown And these old flames bring new burns So my heart breaks and shakes her On the next day a sun will set We'll fuck all night she'll feel alright but I'll never forget I'm alive with the feeling that I wish i was otherwise I'm alive with the feeling that I wish i was otherwise Nothing says I take for granted everything we've got Quite like spending time alone wae those explicit with their thoughts There'll be no ultimatum, you know how I hate them I've dealt wae this far too long So in favour of my sanity I'll sacrifice one song And these old flames bring new burns So my heart breaks and shakes her Now the last sun on us has set And I'm going home 'cause I know I'd rather be alone with A bunch of sad songs.

The Weight 02:55
A home in the hills cluttered with the things a family own My dad, his friends and poker Red Venom and a Super Soaker Home videos of road trips in an LTD wagon Drinkin' in LA's for kids, now I'm over 26 I swear my child won't dewll upon all the things they've never done Or miss the things they've never had 'Cause I'll build walls to keep the bad things out And all our whereabouts accounted for Parent's Night that's plural and affection as if it's normal Scolding rows designed to fix An audience of two for your card tricks Ratings increase as you master the shows and mingling Awards will build a sturdy path And everything will be designed to last I swear my child won't dewll upon all the things they've never done Or miss the things they've never had 'Cause I'll build walls to keep the bad things out And all our whereabouts accounted for Don't get me wrong Every day I'm still stunned by what you done You took one egg and a small but somehow still mixed a sponge I'm still around 'cause you planted these feet firmly into the ground Nothing you done stings It's what absence brings That brought me to this It brought me to this Smart TV's for ten years after they've become obsolete Blu rays from a librarary 'cause Blockbuster will only die wae me No rooms to spare in a house that's had no time to grow old A cluttered shelf hangs on the wall It'll never fall Under the weight, the weight of it all

The Button 02:43
I'm back in your neighbourhood, baby My head went to one place and my feet soon take chase down this road There's never a right time to swing by But like you said - "a light will always be left on for you" How fucking cruel, the pull of the animal in us If I turned to see the road behind me was blocked I'd plant roots The days, months and weeks in the way of me baby Would burn a lot quicker with your torch to guide me but still The guilt forever wet on my head, oh it hinders The cinders I'd leave, my last reprieve, would soon turn to mud I feel you near, so near The cheer of an audience from a TV nowhere to be seen Is you kerosene But I'm fucking done doing this to me Now I'm back on track but still in the black Your light's on down a road long gone milles behind me There's never a right time to swing by But like you said - "a light will always be left on for you" How fucking cruel, the pull of the animal in us If I turned to see the road behind me

Get back to a better place With no trace of where you'd gone Rip the foundations up, it was like that all along Everybody's waiting to go home, just do what they expect you to Gone, they'll be gone By the time I've built myself a time and a place to belong So when all my monsters come out I'll be prepared for what they might do I know I've trained them well enough to know just who When the smoke clears and the sky lifts I know I won't be impervious But the space left in my guts is worth the warst stations It's good to see your face, don't you dare phone, just come round I love that you embrace the piles of bodies on the ground Now I've formed a duo we can duel wae them I can conform to what content means Gone, they'll be gone By the time I've built myself a time and a place It won't be long until they find us here But they won't rob us of our better years And they won't whisper their way through our trust We'll spot them miles away kicking up dust Chanting "they love us" They love us No knots on my shoulder they can grip And although arriving here has been no trip I'll make sure Gone, they'll be gone By the time I've built myself a time and a place to belong When all my monsters come out.

about

I recorded this album on and off between June 2014 and June 2017, it consists mostly of original material and a few updated versions of old songs that I never managed to gig or record with previous bands.
I recorded and mixed this album on headphones so it'd be best enjoyed that way.
If you want to get in touch, you can find me on Twitter @HeavyRiddy
Please enjoy, namaste x
