lyrics

--- Dead Rhetoric Club (2022) from DeadMusicClub Compilation (Tape) Dead Music Club - and Prowling For The Blasts Vol.3 (online) - Owlripper Recordings

Words:
So much spoken but little said
So much noise but nothing heard
Portray the suffering and the dead
Between beers, bongs and downward glances
So much weight of judgement and presumption
On your shoulders
How do you stand?
So many heads to tread on
Where do you stand?
Thank you for your critique of everything and everyone
But do you have anything to offer?
Criticise everything and everyone
But you offer nothing
And encourage no one

/

Explanation:
There is a difference of continuing the tradition of expressing rage about very important subjects and sometimes becoming a little predictable compared with when the same topics are on record sleeves and in lyrics purely as a style requirement, a quick route to identity or simply an uninspired topic with then an additional lack of effort to go beyond cheap sloganeering. There is a risk that all of this becomes like a historical re-enactment society where everyone plays their part in remembering something that used to exist.

Additional to this is the frustration that along with this almost role play posturing is the elitism and judgmental belittling of others, not only becoming stale traditionalists but also gatekeepers and detractors rather than being catalysts or motivators for others becoming involved or having a voice.

This was my introduction to The Owl. Wow! Brilliant without being forced. The production is flawless. That separation that really makes it come alive. Transporting the listener to these unrelenting environments. I can feel the desolation. Each track stands alone, yet the continuity weaves it together making the parts a whole piece. This isn't for everybody but everybody should get it. This is art. A mesmerizing trip through the darkness and isolation in us all and the world. Masterpiece work. Grandpa Grim
