DEADLY BEAUTY

ANYTHING TO KEEP YOU

THE MOMENT THAT YOU WANT IS COMING IF YOU GIVE IT TIME

The Horrors - "Still Life" from Skying on XL Recordings

"Still Life" is equal parts reverse guitar psychedelic haze, heart wrenching lyrics, commanding cathedral vocals and sun burst synths. The Horrors at their most endearing and beautiful.

New record out July 2011.

HOUSE OF LOVE KIND OF DAY

I didn't know House Of Love once covered "Pink Frost" by The Chills, which is admittedly one of my favorite songs of all TIME. No exaggeration there whatsoever.

Here is the original and more brilliant version by The Chills themselves. Heaven.

IN HONOR AND REVERENCE

VEILED VIEWING / MARY O'MALLEY

These decadent pieces by artist Mary O'Malley make me salivate. Thanks to my friend and psychic connection Colleen Nika and 50 Watts (formerly Journey Round My Skull) for sharing.

MUSHY 'INTO YOUR EMPTY EYES'

Mushy at her most intoxicating and painfully beautiful.

TROPIC OF CANCER 'A COLOR' LYRICS

LYRICS UPON REQUEST : 'A COLOR'

(From The Sorrow Of Two Blooms on Blackest Ever Black)

All the words,

All the sin in me you have forsaken.

Always you said to me that all is forgiven.

But suddenly there's nothing left,

Nothing there except what you have taken.

Then one day you'll sleep again,

Sleep again and then you'll be forgotten.

And now you've just left me there

With all the sins and words you left unspoken.

All the words. All the words.

Suddenly there's nothing left,

Except the sins and words you have forsaken.

Then one day you'll sleep again,

Sleep again and then you'll be forgotten.

Because there will be nothing left,

Nothing left except what you have taken.

And then you are on your way,

Honestly with all that you've forsaken.

All the words. All the world forsaken.

And there will be nothing left.

All remains is that what you have taken.

Then one day you'll sleep again,

In your own bed.

And then you'll be forgotten.

SLIPPED ON THE SPIRAL STAIRS

I was a nightmare, but I'm not going to go there again.
