An American Dream

And I was dreaming in my sleep
Saw through you all
And I was dreaming still on my feet
Saw through you all

And I saw what you could be
And you just don’t feel free

And I saw what you could be
But you just won’t be real to me

So let’s blame this excess
On an American dream
So let’s blame the success
Of an American dream

Are you confused by the chaos
In everyones wandering eyes
Do you dream of running naked
In warm rain
Are you confused by the chaos
It’s no, it’s no surprise
We all stand next to Jesus
Close to Satan we’re both the same

These birds can’t fly away away
These birds can’t fly away

So let’s blame this excess
On an American dream

So let’s blame the success
Of an American dream (x4)
Feeling so high and low
It’s the American dream (x4)

Ökologisches Liedgut Für Junge Aktivisten Und Zur Moralischen Bewertung Veralteter Ideologiekonzepte!

Kann eine Band mit Titeln wie “Normalitätsempfindungsanpassung” oder “Wollte, Würde, Hätte” schlecht sein? Warum jagt uns eine Krise nach der anderen? Was wurde aus Zero Moment Of Truth seit dem tollen Debüt von Anfang 2019?

ZMOT spielen live im Garten Ausschnitte aus ihrem neuen Album “Ökologisches Liedgut für junge Aktivisten
Dazu Video-Erinnerungsfetzen an die Geschehnisse und Erlebnisse der letzen Monate.

[straight from youtube aktuell]

Das ganze seit kurzem auch als Download Album mit PDF booklet nach dem Motto reinhören, zuhören und zuschlagen (Trieb- und Gewissensbefriedigung durch Kauf von 100% wiederverwertbaren Bits und Bytes).

Poems. Lydia Tomkiw. Collected.

Dan Shepelavy from ‘Universal Exports of North America’ is the the publisher & editor of a new, comprehensive re-issue of the hopelessly out-of-print poems of Lydia Tomkiw.
It features an introduction by poet and Tomkiw’s teacher Paul Hoover, a recollection by poet and close friend Sharon Mesmer, and an assessment of Algebra Suicide by music critic/Trouser Press editor Ira Robbins.

Besides each book also includes a download of Algebra Suicide’s 1986 debut album Big Skin – significantly the only time a book & record were released simultaneously, with the same poems, in the same order.

Today available only splattered on the re-issue LP Compilations by Dark Entries (Feminine Squared and on Still Life) but luckily also saved in it’s original form but from a 2nd gen source at archive.org.

This is most likely the only chance to get all of her out of print collections and more for a reasonable price and as someone who collected Algebra Suicide and Lydia Tomkiw works for years I know how expensive (if for sale at all) a copy of “Popgun Sonatas” can be.
