lyrics
I don’t know about me
Take my life, and put it on a pedestal
I don’t get beamed down this way usually
But, it’s time for a change of scenery
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
And I don’t know where I went wrong
The front door slammed next to me
Woke me up in my cryogenic chamber
I said, ‘Where are we again? No idea?
Well, that’s quite alright, I must be dreaming’
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
And I’m sleeping with both eyes closed
I’ll probe you when I wake up
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
I come from the outside
The outside looking in
But, I’m so inside my head
Yeah, it’s beautiful from the outside
But I’m always looking in
Take my life, and put it on a pedestal
I don’t get beamed down this way usually
But, it’s time for a change of scenery
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
And I don’t know where I went wrong
The front door slammed next to me
Woke me up in my cryogenic chamber
I said, ‘Where are we again? No idea?
Well, that’s quite alright, I must be dreaming’
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
And I’m sleeping with both eyes closed
I’ll probe you when I wake up
I’m an alien with a sleep mask on
I come from the outside
The outside looking in
But, I’m so inside my head
Yeah, it’s beautiful from the outside
But I’m always looking in

Great opening track, stays great the whole time. There's seriously not a dud on here. From the high energy opening track to the crazy guitar effects on Acrid to the beautiful closing tracks, it's a certified banger!

This album is so soothing. Always puts me in a good mood.

Cardiff band Red Telephone can't disguise the pure pop sensibility in their blistering alt-rock songs.

A slow drip of Tropicália-infused psychedelia from New Orleans rock outfit Blue Basin: balmy one moment, aggressive the next.
