Tiranny Ending only To begin again Erase past memory Phony idols On the altars Elevated Get knocked down again Lost in circles Repetition Only to begin again Endless cycle Moving backwards Only to begin again Lost in circles Endless cycle Lost in circles Moving backwards Lost in circles

City Burns 04:12
Cut like blade down the street I get lost inside you Night is restless carnage That never falls apart Never falls apart This city burns itself I need nowhere else Watch it growing stronger Slaying all the monsters Night is restless carnage That never falls apart Never falls apart You are all my dreams You are all my fears Going up in flames There is nowhere else Hold me in your arms Hold me in your arms We’re going up in flames We ‘re going up in flames Desire nowhere else The city burns itself

Voices 03:50
Oh voices Whisper to me Hollow noises Keep haunting me Blurred faces Stare back at me The hatred The jealousy Locked in a frame We’ve been building I crumble Like porcelain Into pieces Into nothingness Oh voices Like lightning Like colours Colliding Remorseless Voices I believe you are there I believe you are there with me Voices I believe you are there I believe you are there with me

Take care and maintain your machinery Danger high voltage high toxicity Consistent work speed and accuracy We are rebuilding your reality Flammable liquid petrol kerosene Stay clear of exits we’re always near Leave engines on improve efficiency Always report to high authority Everything you need Within Everything you need Within Follow the rules Within And keep your eyes On the machine Keep constant flow on the assembly line Increase our profits reduce your time Every day spent inside the factory You are rebuilding your reality Everything you need Within Everything you need Within Follow the rules Within And keep your eyes On the machine

Find me a garden To hide away From all the trouble And things you say I wanna stay there Between the trees Covered in flowers Covered in leaves Do as I feel Stranger you’ll see Lay here with me Nothing to fear The love you’re seeking Doesn’t exist The birds aren’t singing Down underneath Your hands all over My body reach Linger the slaughter Between the sheets You did what you did Stay here with me Stranger you’ll see Nothing to fear You let me down You left me down here You’ve put me down You’ve put me down here Stay here with me Nothing to fear There’s no more danger So come to me We will remember All that you did There’s nowhere in there To hide away I am a garden I am the earth

Cold Hands 04:33
Hold my hand I wanna wake In the darkest night Find you there Real cold hands Melt like ice When you’re there It’s always right Shadows play On unmade bed Everything is And nowhere else We keep moving Bright lights ahead Wash over you On the darkest night

Cut Shadows 02:33

I don’t sleep I just dream Drifting back to troubled seas On the dunes On the beach I see you Within reach Endless waves pulling in In the arms sweet relief Remember Surrender To me A hundred miles from the shore

about

Conceived in their Paris’ studio, “Cut Shadows” announces Eugénie and Peter’s return, as they engineered this fourth album entirely on their own, from recording to production.
Moving towards darker sounds, the album is tinted with effervescence, in which the dreamlike atmosphere, developed and refined with rage, fills up the space like a rock guitar riff.

To break free from the shadows of the past and move towards greater freedom, there lies the meaning of the album’s title.
A music made to move… body in motion and mind subjugated.

about

Parlor Snakes Paris, France

Parlor Snakes is a shape-shifting entity, whose backbone is the French American duo Eugénie Alquezar / Peter K.
After their rock’n’roll inspired debut album “Let's Get Gone’’, a self titled garage/blues infused second one, (recorded in New York by Matt Verta-Ray) and the dark psychedelic vibes of the third one “Disaster Serenades’’, Parlor Snakes is now evolving towards darker ambient sounds.
