lyrics
There’s a knock on the door
you start to panic ’cause you don’t really know what to do
There’s a call on the phone
not gonna answer because nobody calls anymore
Someone calls out your name, you turn around but it was somebody else that they meant
You’re relieved and pissed off and disappointed and confused and your heart nearly stops
My mind
My mind
is working overtime
I panic inside
Then smile and say I’m fine
I have anxiety
There’s a guy in the street, you think you know him and you call out his name but it’s not
No it is somebody else, it’s always somebody else, what happened to all your friends?
There’s a tap on your arm, you turn around expecting kindness but they just wanted thru
They just push right past, Hey what the fuck was that? Could you give me some room?
Sturm Café sending us some good music once again, made with love just like the rest of the catalogue. Hymne für die Ewigkeit stands out the most to me with it's memorable, nostalgic and awesome sequence and the way it flows with the lead synths. it's simply amazing. lovely album! tobischmobi
Magnetic, minimalist post-punk with wormy synthesizers and cracking drum machines gives the genre some much needed rattle and shake. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 7, 2023
On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
