Use And Ornament

by Regal Worm

supported by

muschiosauro An incredible album that draws from classic prog rock scenes such as Canterbury and RIO and updates them, creating a greater whole that sounds brilliant. Intricate song structures, rich textures, time signature changes and a quirky, British sense of humour popping up now and then from the lyrics or from the music itself. Sheer and lush prog rock awesomeness. Favorite track: Apple Witch.

Strictly Kev Occupies a space somewhere between Godley & Creme's 'L' and Mr Bungle's 'California' - not many artists you can say that about. Favorite track: Apple Witch.

Apple Witch 04:05
The apples in my garden are wiser than you could ever imagine The apples in my garden have wide eyes to seek the seeker I take this barley mow Twine twister grow Empty vessel by thyself Be filled with stone, not shell The apples in my garden are wiser than you could ever imagine The apples in my garden have wide eyes to seek the seeker Yield to me by the tree... I wear my veloutine And balzarine Silver kettle on my shelf Be filled with false morrel Old cider essence Blood from my thumb Now he has come Love crazy

Part Four: Time And Circumstance Lyrics Mick Somerset Time and circumstance one second either way Fate was frowning on that rainy day I was full of longing Longing for my Weaver But she is far away Time and circumstance one second either way Love besotted I leapt over hedgerow Squealing and screaming The horseless carriage rolled Quiet as my burrow Four wheels still turning I'm off to hibernate Time and circumstance one second either way

Mud 01:24
Don't you worry about the things that you read in your bed Don't you worry about the things that they feed in your head Won't do any good Sticking in the mud Won't do any good Slipping in the mud For always And a day It's your day For always Time to put your coat on Now
