We went all huge Funkadelic and Parliament fans and I think you can hear a trace of that in our blend of funk and high-energy rock that characterized Brink, the first song we wrote together.

lyrics

I've been racing
To catch up with myself
So I can rest at the core
And melt
And listen
To what's not there

I saw you two strolling
Imagination's linked
Happy as saints
You were strolling to the brink

Wait!
There was a sound
Who were you laughing with it about?
Wait!
I'm collapsing
The thought of being without
And not going to
The brink

Being pulled back now
To some secondary state
Not quite breathing
Not asleep and not awake
So slow to think

There is a country
To which we can escape
There is a story
A passion, a life
In which we can escape to
The brink

This is a partial musical record of that journey. ... more
