Follow Alexandria

A song from our band Thous & Thees

So we've been recording and re-recording recently. This is a song that is quite new and I haven't posted here before. There is the option to download this and three other songs on our bandcamp website here.

The other songs on the bandcamp are ones which I've posted here before but they've been tweaked and recorded to a much better quality. I'd be really interested to hear what you all think.

We have just played a couple of shows in Glasgow, but for now it seems as if we will be on "indefinite hiatus" as our singer is returning to Canada. A new project beckons I guess.



Lyrics

I checked it's empty,
rain from sea,
eroding pavements and tenements,
and all the while,
soaking me.

Silent sirens,
skylined lines,
follow Alexandria
for sleepless nights.


This is not a simple geography,
follow Alexandria slowly and patiently.
This is not an easy geometry,
follow Alexandria patiently and slowly.
This is no didactic history,
follow Alexandria slowly and faithfully...
