lyrics

Seventy thousand angels
Pulling seventy thousand reins
Falling for seventy thousand years
To never reach the bottom
Terrible curdling sounds
Integrate them together
Consume them, heat them up hard like stone
Stern and severe
Straying in evil
Hear my fury
Raging sighs
Darkening, quakening changes
Wrote its lies in millions of bastard pages
In millions of bastard pages
Life engages

Chorus:
The white death got me
See the death was white
White shadows haunt me
Taunt me to madness

Verse 2:
The dragons of virtue
See the seas and the heavens at one time
It rode the stars but they collapsed within themselves
And nobody found the wealth
As it died, the spirit, it rose into the skies
And formed into clouds
And when it cries
The whole earth can feel the pain when it rains
Words of war, preservation, I will attack with aggression
Counter attack opposition
Clash, the final mission
With purpose precision
Strategic condition
Strategic condition

The tracks with Moor Mother are where I hoped Tricky would end up. There are similarities but there's an awesome heft in this album that takes the whole thing to somewhere kind of familiar but so different. The second half feels like I just fell off a cliff edge into the swirling void. Well done folks a great album jazzberto

Sub Plot II
by Jonny Drop

A vast, 25-track beat tape created at home in the first month of the Covid-19 pandemic; swanky cut-ups and dusty R&B atmospherics abound. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 1, 2020
