Ioannis Valiakos Wonderful post-grunge sound and clever song-writing, with catchy hooks throughout. I really liked the desert rock overtones on "Walk Away" and "Number", but so far I think my favourite is the darker "Say Yeah". I hadn't known this band prior to this release, but I 'd sure as hell follow them closely. Many thanks to Billy Goate (Doomed & Stoned) for the heads up. Check them out today! Favorite track: Say Yeah.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) Grungy/alt-rock grooves that blends heavy fuzzed out refrains with melodic clean vocals. Good stuff! Favorite track: Walk Away.

Walk Away 05:07
Run through the fire and you won't complain Odds stacked against you when they call your name Who can it be? Oh no not him, now they're calling you back What do you say? I've been here all day and I know it's stacked Say you will or say you won't Contradiction is such a joke Scream you brains out and I won't shed a tear Until I walk away Such a drag when your on my back Miss you dearly but don't want you back What can I say these are dark days, that's a fact Any chance to choose you've been bound to loose and now you want it back

Remember the nights, They weren't so long ago Remember the days that we had Remember the roads we took so far from home And we didn't care way back then Fill up the tank pull out the tapes, Let's hit the road Can't go home cause I'm working late Ain't' got no money, Ain't go no gas, it's such a drag Your circus left town now your here to stay You and me we ain't so far apart The distance is great and greater still Remember the trips we took far from mind (outta time) I look back now and I'm laughing still Turn back the clock, Make it stop, I don't wanna age You'll break your bones but you're wiser still Reluctant to stop but know you must get far away Take down the walls cause their gonna break (you're gonna break)

Number 05:58
Be the change you want to see Move the mountains away from me Modern world is a waste of time See you when you return to mind Forever now, forever more When it is deep, you hit the floor Open eyes still can't see Space between the empty seas Shooting blanks at a cloudy sky Never question what or why Forever now, forever more When it is deep, you hit the floor Always remember that your number could come up Take a look at your bad self before someone else Always remember that you’re blessed to walk this earth Good Mother's graces have given you your worth Are you afraid of what you'll find? When will you free your clouded mind? Will angels come when death appears? Haven't felt this pain in years

Bleu Skies 02:55
I was waiting On the blue skies When the rain was falling down They came chasing Off the gray Knowing they'll come back again How long will it stay? No one can say To contradict this pain Going the wrong way (the wrong way, the wrong way) Got sick of waiting Wasting away Don't know where I'm gonna turn Shotgun waiting To end the day Never turn that way you'd say Got to be today We're tired of waiting Causing too much pain Gotta walk away (walk away When it rains on you Will it shine on me? When it rains on you Will it shine on me?
5.
Say Yeah 02:55
You say you want it around your finger Ask daddy to take it back It hits hard but don't let it linger Bases loaded in case we're attacked Say No, Hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay Say No, Hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay So quiet and no one around He thinks he's got it and that's a fact Little honey don't mess around Just drop the knife in his back Say No, Hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay Say No, Hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay So you want all that you left behind Can't stand in the dark anymore They took it all and left it all behind you Shook down in the dark for sure Say No, hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay Say No, hell yeah Say Hello if you want 'em to stay
