lyrics
There’s a wasp in the office it never stops it’s buzzing Incessantly it oscillates
Incessantly it oscillates
There’s a wasp in the office, it will outlast all accounting minions Will outlast all accounting minions
Will outlast all accounting minions
Evades the swat and the paper, the grip
Evades the swat and the paper, the grip
Evades the swat and the paper, the grip to form a legend as it Flits right through my Teflon fingers
Right through my Teflon fingers
Keep yourself alive just long enough To make that legend stick

Keep yourself indoors and
Keep those hands where I can see them These vitamins and circuit boards
Will keep you ‘til the winter freezes Colder...
To prove yourself, you shoot rats in the barrel
To prove yourself, as the hunter, as the gatherer
To prove yourself, that you’re worthy of this mantle You revert right back to the primitive form
Devolve yourself to the primitive form
Til these power cuts and overloads
Reduce us back to neanderthal blows
You were born for the weight of the mantle now Prepare yourself for the Holocene boy
Repair yourself for the Holocene boy
You’re colder, and colder, and colder
Go break this telemetry down
Be colder, colder, be savages
More of the savage and less of the animal Now colder, colder, be colder
Go break this telemetry down
Be colder, colder, be savages
More of the savage and less of the animal
Make you worthy of enhancement now
Make you hunter and the gatherer
You re-pixelate your everything
You re-pixelate your everything
You’ve defined yourself at a bit-rate that shows Your homosapien overtones
All the lost harmonics of your primitive form The sweet harmonics of your simian form
In an emulation of the analogue world
You’re colder, you’re colder, you’re colder We break this telemetry down
You’re colder, colder, be savages
More of the savage and less of the animal You’re colder
Down with your telemetry, down with your traditions You are colder
More of the savage and less of the animal
More of the savage and less of the animal
Down with your telemetry, down with your traditions You are more of the savage and less of the animal Down with your telemetry, down with your traditions
You mourn...
Fashion up the spears from cutlery and string And anything else that’s not tied down
This Access Virus left no traces
Mourn your data gone...
You’re colder, colder
You break this telemetry down
All colder, colder
More of the savage and less of the animal Be colder, colder, be colder
We break this telemetry down
Now colder, colder, be savages
More of the savage and less of the animal
Etc...

A sound that comes on like a poppier version of Field Music; or an XTC for the modern age, if you will. They nimbly
negotiate the tightrope that is stretched between those two towers “Experimental” and “Accessible” with ease, and have fresh melodies and harmonies to burn. We’re sticking a large flag in them marked: “The Real Deal”. DP (The Crack Magazine Feb 2012)...more
supported by 4 fans who also own “Old Teflon Fingers / The Modern Hunter”
Generally speaking I like anything Mike Vennart is a part of. I don't listen to this as often as the Vennart albums, but I still recommend it to Oceansize fans. berobbi
