This is the endgame
Come walk behind me
They call me Shannon and I am the hunted
This is the endgame
Come walk behind me
You can try and catch me but I belong to the night
I shadow your fright
While I mess with George Eastman’s light
The hunter is caged
My history’s stained
I’ll never surrender to your insane demands
Cause you feel it
Like the endgame is real
But the ending is only just the beginning
Because this final fight
This epic night
You waited your whole life is so cruel
God annihilated everything I ever loved and now he’s annihilating me
God have mercy

Shocking Asia (remix)

And the time feels right to watch that part in Shocking Asia
After Faces of Death and Gates of Hell
The shit don’t phase ya
Watching Asians eating monkey brains
Yeah that’s truly shocking
But that Vic Morrow Twilight Zone helicopter footage is shocking

And there’s a moment in time
That was captured deep in your mind
When you can turn to me and belong to something we could find
While we were running for the land of innocence and make believe
But what could anybody say to make it all seem okay
But I will be with you
And you will expect me down the line
Can we begin to understand the great reveal
And you will believe me
And we will transcend this final day
Cause there’s nothing in this world that could ever take me away
Oh God
It’s 3:15 and it’s the moment of truth

Doleful Lions Chicago, Illinois
Doleful Lions are one the great lost bands of modern times, its not an under achiever thing rather more that they’ve been constantly overlooked in favour of ensembles, fads and fashions less musically astute and considerably less talented, always occupying their own little orbit shying away from the various bandwagons that have come passing them by - Mark Barton (The Sunday Experience) ... more
Doleful Lions recommends:
Save For A Rainy Day
by Jan & Dean
The first twee pop album from November 1966. I listened to this a lot when I wrote and recorded Song Cyclops.

Cry All The Time
by Impulsive Hearts
My favorite Chicago release so far this year. Blurry 60s girl group songs with tons of emotion. Favorite song EXODUS EVENING COMPANY.

My mid nineties band has reformed!

Market, from Melbourne, fuse soul and chillwave on a wonderfully woozy song with rubbery guitars & breathy harmonies.

An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow.
