Wash Out To Sea Oh, I'm terrified People fade I heard it said Raven knows on a telephone line Your eyes black as coal in my hands Let me wash out Let me wash out Swim in the sea Swim in the sea Oh, rain keeps me sane People fade I've heard it said You look worse Touch of death People fade I heard you say Oh, look at you Oh, now... Watch it fade Nothing left today... Let me fade Wash out to sea Walk with me Wash out to sea Wash out and fade Watch it fade Wash out to sea c tumour records 2017 used by permission

about

The new album "Syncretism" may document time and space post brain tumor operation #2 and it may approach story telling in typical mustoek acumen but it is different than last years "Everyday is Like Living on a Fishing Boat" and "Losing Another Part of Me". If those albums were explorations into form and structure as vehicles of emotive explanations then "syncretism" is more of a collection of subconscious momentary directional forays documented in song form. Inspiration, immediacy and celebration direct the listener to new outcomes in this album. However, don't be fooled it is still steeped in mustoek noise soundscapes, layered visuals and meandering melodies.

Enjoy!
