Atrophy

We recently recorded this song for a compilation cd of "Awakenings" punk rock festival. You can listen to it on our myspace, www.myspace.com/thetuxedoconspiracy or preferably at one of our next live gigs. The song called "Atrophy" and below are the lyrics. Something close to the days when you'd buy the cd open the booklet read the lyrics and listen to the songs. Enjoy!

Atrophy

No one wants to carry the burden
No one wants to be followed by ghosts
No one will admit what they have taught
and everyone’s to cool to appreciate what they got
No one wants to be around a freak
And everyone's so special and unique,
Like a paint or a picture
like a brand new trend
No one wants to carry a heart with a leak
And everyone is too cool for the same old beat
Everyone is too cool for the same old beat

All seem worn out
And everything’s so new
Everyone’s full of hate
It’s the way to be cool
I’m fading steady and fast
Like a song on the radio that never meant to last

It’s epidemic this atrophy of feelings
and I’m not saying I’m a saint
I hope all these soon to be gone
like a storm will fade
this song will go away unsung unheard and unspoken
I've seen from crooked buildings praying to die
to buses waving goodnight
maybe it’ll start a brand new craze
or they’ll just call it quits and say it twas a phase
we can’t admit a great defeat
and no one wants to live with a heart with a leak

All seem worn out
And everything’s so new
Everyone’s full of hate
It’s the way to be cool
I’m fading steady and fast
Like a song on the radio that never meant to last

We're proud to present our first musical achievement. It's nothing special but it will certainly give you a hint of what we sound like when we play in a full band form. Well, here you go, here's the link www.myspace.com/thetuxedoconspiracy. Add us, leave a comment, tell us what you think.

Till the next time we have something important to announce, take care.

A Little Treat For You

Hey there people!

As we promised in our last entry our first musical child "Handshake With The Devil" will be up tonight around midnight. So, till then watch a little T.V, flick through a magazine, lay back, drink a beer or two, drink some tea or whatever you feel like drinking and wait patiently.

While you're waiting there, here's an opportunity to read the lyrics for our first song so you can sing along while listening to it or when at our shows. Here you go

"Handshake With The Devil"

"Are we dust are we stars
maybe planets somewhere far
we're just a handshake with the devil
and a short breath of air"

You turn the other cheek
to the hand that smacks you down
with the grace of Mona Lisa
and self-esteem of clowns
but you'll run your mouth
critisizing everything and everyone around
And when you close your eyes
you just can't sleep at night
it's like your ghosts feed on your soul
from a constant fight
but then one day you held my hand
looked me in the eyes and said
"please help me understand"

Last minute's resolutions
of how to be a better man
maybe someone else
looking for solutions
in the back of your own head
didn't get you far
the answers that you're looking for
you know you'll never get
what an irony what a sadistic end
we're falling fast in a bad trip
some said we're done and out
but we aint dead yet

There you go, you have till the 6th of May to recite this and sing it with us at our first show with "The Toasters"

Gigs and Recording

Today we're recording our first song. Nothing big and fancy. Just an acoustic rendition of one of our songs to be out there for your listening pleasure. The name of our first to be recorded musical "child" will be "Handshake With The Devil". Scary huh? Well hopefully it will be ready in a couple of days from today, since we decided to put a lot of work and effort in it.

Other than that, we're also practicing and preparing for our first live with "The Toasters" on the sixth of May. If you're in Athens come down at ANclub and say hello.
