about

Our third release, Rift is definitely our most personal to date.

The lyrics are about my sister who has schizophrenia, her fragility, her strength and our relationship. The art work too is very special as it is a painting by my mother Salome S-Russell titled 'People of the Sun'.

We've purposely taken a more cinematic approach than our previous songs trying to capture something of the fractured fluidity people can experience - blurring of time and space, our past, present, self, otherness, right, wrong, clarity and confusion.

lyrics

Lyrics

I've seen you flicker
I've seen you stall
But you keep moving
Despite our fall

How do we call our fights?
We see with partial sight
It's true
We're fools

Time (days gone, days gone, days gone by)
I am remembering the time
remembering, remembering the time
Time (days gone, days gone, days gone by)
I am remembering the time
remembering, remembering the time

I've seen you flicker
I've seen you stall
But you keep moving
Despite our fall

How do we call our fights?
We see with partial sight
It's true
We're fools
