"Enemy of the Matrix" saw light early one morning when Lilou woke up in bed with a melody in her head. She used the cell phone to record the first epic words "I can see you, I can feel you, I can breath you mortalkind". John wrote an entire song based on those words with the intention of exploring the mental landscape that created the old viking god Odin. Lilou and John wanted to describe the strong religious emotions that surrounded the worship and what he meant for the world view of that era.
lyrics
I can see you
I can feel you
I can breathe you, mortalkind
In the water
In the deep well
I still watch you, mortalkind
I was hanging
From the world tree
From the mighty Yggdrasil
I was given
I was given
All the knowledge of the runes
And I told you
I fortold you
There will come a day of woe
When the world ends
And the day breaks
And a woman and a man
Will be walking
Will be talking
And will try to understand
And I see life
Neverending
And I walk between the worlds
There be many
Called the Elder
But you know my name and word
I can see you
I can feel you
I can breathe you, mortalkind
A split cassette archives the recordings of two youthful Massachusetts bands, whose sounds range from math rock to dream pop to punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 2, 2018
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
