lyrics

On the street, a small silver reed; I pick it up and make it mine. The clocks of the town close
to twelve now - let them all chime. In the anchorite's cell, a devotional bell. A single note
rings on and on. An impression of stone on the temple bone at the call to prayer, and
everything changes. I fall to earth, and follow these Christmas voices muffled by the
snow. Anechoic, Phoenician black. This hooded sweatshirt's lost out with the
cold. Particulates rise as the candles die, and an incense bough hangs over Antioch. A
satellite high in the midnight sky catches the sun and everything changes. I fall to
earth. Climbing spiral stairs made out of gold. Anechoic, Phoenician black. And this trippy,
science fiction laser light show. Bread and the wine, earthly and divine, this simple stuff. And
everything changes.

KURAKURA London, UK

Formed on a night in Reykjavik, KURAKURA is a new electro-psych quartet based in the west country.

The song they recorded on that night in Iceland is about shipping containers and collapsing stars. It's one of eight tracks on their debut LP, Lockd Room Mysteries, out now. ... more
