This is the voice of the Mysterons... We know that you can hear us I want to tune in and drop out Yes, I know your proclivities - or at least their vicinities So can it be 'yes' and not ''no' This is love in the first degree, this unusual chemistry Could it be right? And not wrong? I guess I'm just a cynicist, you're the hit that I can't resist And can you not go for too long? I'm in Love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us I'm in Love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us I want to stay in and go out With my beautiful lyricist - all those lines that I can't resist Could it be time for one more skip in places I've been before That just leave me wanting more But this doesn't end with a twist Guess that makes me recidivist and it makes you the hypnotist And yes, I've been hooked for so long It's something that just went on I'm in Love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us I'm in Love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us ...We know that you can hear us I'm in Love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us He's in love with a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us They're in love with the Mysterons ...We know that you can hear us Everybody's a Mysteron ...We know that you can hear us And was it 'he's', 'she's', 'I's', 'Them' We're all just birds, bees, as high as the trees

No matter what happens now… do nothing Got it without the subtitles When you’re working all day and you’re working all night You want to turn out the light and do nothing When you’re drinking all day, and you’re running all night And you wake up with exactly nothing They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke No matter what happens now, do nothing People do nothing People say nothing People do nothing Got it without the subtitles When the stories are gone and the medicine’s wrong And rather than shout you do nothing When you’re covered in woke and everyone’s broke We all end up with exactly nothing They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke No matter what happens now, do nothing People do nothing People say nothing People do nothing Got it without the subtitles They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke

What rules are you playing? Are playing? (repeats) What’s my part in this? I want to know. You made it easy for them. And love? You were a pawn. They used us. Cheated us both. If it hadn’t been for us, they would have been killed. What rules are you playing? Are playing? (repeats) There’s only one rule: Expediency.

Run 03:54
The physics of momentum - direction of strike Some movements seem harmless and some will cut you like a knife So when to beam up? Or go underground? And know when to run - run for your life Run for your life (keep running) Run for your life (run) Run for your life (your life, your life) Run for your life (your life, your life) The heat of the moment - the blink of an eye Decisions were made that night and still, I don’t know why So many times, you told me it’s over You brave little soldier who can’t read between the lines So run for your life (keep running) Run for your life (run) Run for your life (your life, your life) Run for your life (your life, your life) Just run for your life Keep running, run for it, RUN!

An assassin. A professional killer. Wanted in a dozen countries. And there’s one thing you gotta get right. You gotta be smooth. You gotta be cool. You gotta move light. You gotta have eyes in the back of your head. And know when to fight. And know when to flight and stay out of sight. And if you get this all right, there’s just a feint chance that you’ll live through the night Cos she’s a ninja assassin (she’s coming for you) She’s a genie from Alladin (she’s coming for you) Did you look around you? And are you awake and are you aware? And could they have found you? Do shadows enshroud you or are you feeling fatigued? Can you close your eyes> Do you need to sleep? Ninja assassin (she’s coming for you) She’s a genie from Alladin (she’s coming for you) She’s a ninja assassin (she’s coming for you) She’s a genie from Alladin (she’s coming for you)

Opaque Skies 03:49
What is the ID? It’s an obsolete term. The elementary basis of the subconscious mind. Monsters from the ID. Monsters from the subconscious. A machine. Operated by remote control. Operated by the electro-magnetic impulses of brains. That machine would project solid matter to any part of the planet in any shape or colour they imagined - creation by mere thought. Saffron seas Sunflower seas Under the sun Sun-kissed dreams Life’s just begun under the sun Under the broken sun Millions of eyes see opaque skies So tired of lies - no need to theorise Underneath this broken sun Do do do do - sunflower seeds (under the sun) Do do do do - Sun-kissed dreams Saffron seas A thousand dreams of golden trees in the golden breeze Cos the sun don’t rise in opaques skies A thousand lies for us to memorise Underneath this broken sun Do do do do - under the sun (subconscious) Do do do do - under the sun (subconscious) Do do do do - Saffron seas - under the sun (subconscious) Do do do do - Sun-kissed dreams - under the sun (subconscious) Do do do do - Sun-kissed dreams Underneath this broken sun Why haven’t I seen this all along?

about

The Mysterons, unseen aliens from the 1960s TV series 'Captain Scarlet', could occupy and control human minds and bodies. Eagle-eyed viewers would visualize these sinister aliens as two rings of green light.
The tracks here are more electronic than past releases and we've enjoyed playing around with synthesizers while (we hope) retaining the BM retro vibe.
