They're gonna freeze me when I die And wake me up They're gonna freeze me when I die And wake me up They're gonna put me in a box Yeh, the future's good! They're gonna freeze me when I die And wake me up I am the great white hope for mankind Someone's gotta save us all! We'll see it clear from our bunkers on the hill Cos all I see is human landfill They're gonna freeze me when I die And wake me up They're gonna freeze me when I die And wake me up I kiss you all goodbye, yeh now wish me luck!

You don't know me From a can of worms You don't know me I'm everywhere you turn The sun is slowly Burning up the sea Listening in On everything you speak All honing in, honing in on me Silent as the sea Silent as the sea Always talking Always talking Always talking About you Always talking Always talking Always talking About you Now Black swan swims in circles Circling down the drain New cyclones picking up speed Starts the rain I don't wanna sleep Silent as the sea Everything you speak All are honing in Honing in on me Silent as the sea Always talking Always talking Always talking About you Always talking Always talking Always talking About you Now Black swan swims in circles Always talking Always talking Always talking About you Always talking Always talking Always talking About you

11.	CATALYST 04:02	lyrics	buy track
I'm in hiding Passive realigning Tied up Hands are burning blue I need a kick now I won't pretend now Someone to light the fuse My blood is boiling Even my face is changing A death road I can't refuse I need gasoline Gasoline Just to make it all turn All minds are charging One eye on every screen Slavers still rule the waves Digi-natives, such easy captives Eyeballs singed and strangely spaced... I need gasoline Just a little Gasoline I want gasoline Just a little Gasoline Just to make it all turn... Always the bride, never the bridesmaid Ad nauseum...

about

Primarily conceived as a film music project, Blind Künstler is a collaborative effort anchored by the production and instrumental work of New Zealander, Rhys Braddock, and the Czech saxophonist, Tomáš Továrek.

Half instrumental, half songs, the new album mixes genres and atmospheres while maintaining some sense as a whole. Lynchian landscapes converge with Gothic jazz stylings with Továrek’s masterful technique both lyrical and unsettling, sometimes all in the same phrase.

Each track is accompanied by one of Rhys’ naive paintings, something he’s only recently taken up.

“Blind Künstler has a long history dating back to my time in Melbourne. It was originally an industrial group doing gigs in abandoned factories. Kind of like an EN revival! I’ve resurrected the name as it seemed to sum up my feelings about learning to paint: blindly stumbling in the dark and all the various difficulties of the beginner. Like improv music, I like chasing randomness to find something beautiful (or ugly). But you usually have to swim through an ocean of garbage to get to it. It’s quite a childlike approach. That’s painting and music for me. I’m still rather blind.”
