  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    This album celebrates 20 years of playing their fusion of psychedelic space rock and proto-punk, with flourishes of folk, americana, prog, dub, ambient and alt- rock at gigs and festivals around the UK. The album is a collection from those early days when the band emerged from playing at various West London singer/songwriter nights such as The Acoustic Revolution, The Troubadour and The 12 Bar Club up to last year’s Kozfest and Blind Cat festivals.

    The CD also comes with a band family tree pull out poster that details the changes in the band over the years. The CD and poster artwork have been designed by Paul ‘Woodbine’ Woodwright, who has also incorporated the artwork from the late great album cover artist, Mark Reiser.

lyrics

Points of View

1/
I saw the news the other day
It told me of the way that things were going
I heard a politician say
That things were alright – things were ok
I try and read between the lines
Try and see what's there behind
But every time I try and find
running into blanks – time and time again

Chorus
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
AFTER ALL THE THINGS I SAW YOU DO
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
I-WAS TRYING TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND ON – YOU------

2/
I try and find another way
Trying to find some information
I'm watching politics in play
Trying to find some def-in-ition
and the more I try and find
Watching doors closing – one by one
And it's always against time
Facts are hidden and the evidence is stolen

Chorus
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
AFTER ALL THE THINGS I SAW YOU DO
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
I-WAS TRYING TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND ON YOU
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
AFTER ALL THE THINGS I SAW YOU DO
I TRY AND SEE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW
I-WAS TRYING TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND ON – YOU------

Take Me To The Future
1/
Take me to the future now - Take me to see the stars
I want to see the rivers - on a terraformed Mars
I want to see salvation – a place for us to know
where man looks to the heavens - a place for us to go
a place for us to go
a place for us to go
a place for us to go
a place for us to go
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
2/

I want to see the wonders – of the Galaxy
I want to see all of the – new technologies
I want to see the future - send me out to space
I want to see the stepping stones –
of the human race
of the human race
of the human race
of the human race
take me to the future (now) x8
take me
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3/

Take me to the edges – of the Universe
I want to see the colonies – away from Planet Earth
Send me to the future – an oracle in space
a cosmic resolution – that might save the human race
that might save the human race that might save the human race that might save the human race that might save the human race
take me to the future (now) x8
take me
