lyrics
My anger is an issue
You can see it in my eyes
Hear it in my voice
The words I use
The way I snarl
My anger is an issue
When it slips the leash
It rears its head
Spits and growls
Is nasty and spiteful
And then the consequences
The feeling small
Embarrassed by the loss of control
It can be extreme
My anger
An over reaction
I think I have it under control
And then the dam cracks
One straw too many
For the Camel's back
And someone gets it all
My anger is an issue

Great record. wears it's influences proudly ..but retains a sliver of identity that is uniquely British and has a northern feel to it..I think that these geographic musical vignettes are realy evocotive of northern Newtown Uber estates and satellite communities..I hope this translates to a wider audience for him...he deserves the attention. give him his due .NOW . christopherogley
Cinematic jazz from this French group that ventures far beyond stylistic borders and into modern classical and more. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2022
I was seeking a comprehensive update, both in terms of quantity and quality, regarding the music I greatly enjoyed during the mid-1980s. I discovered an abundance of options. sweetsweetmusic
