Permit me if you will to speak in wanky metaphors that tend to get stretched out ot the point were they're not recognisiable back to the think that they started out as a metaphor for.
The sun has set
Imagine all your feelings as an iceberg with just the anger sticking out, as the performance on display for everyone to see, well sometimes this creative myth feels a bit like that, as I rip through another basic recording in a room by myself.
The sun has set.
And I know I've mentioned all this before, the bolted horses and the broken bottles, is this some sort of Easter egg I'm creating for no one other then myself? Should I stop or just keep going with said egg on my face
the sun has set
Written down in a rare moment of self reflection, or like a severed head in a mirrored box, starting to see everything from a bunch of different angles, too bad there's no thumbs up. Now the sun has set

Cut it out

Cut it out.
everyone is running around in such a hurry in a mad rush to be going nowhere, somewhere, anywhere. But still no one wants to tell me what the real point is.
Cut it
And no I'm not saying that I'm smarter then anyone else and I don't hold any answers or think that everyone's a sucker and I'm just being led around by idiots.
Cut it out.
I think I have something of a healthy distrust of status quo and authority, but some thing about yr stance on this particular issue it just doesn't seem to ring true.
Cut it out
Seems more likes it's based on selfishness and an limited self esteem. wanting power and control for all the wrong reasons and being incensed by inconvenience.
Cut it out.
And no I'm not saying that I'm smarter then anyone else and I don't hold any answers or think that everyone's a sucker and I'm just being led around by idiots.
So cut it out.
its falling apart
cut it.......

Bad guy
04:40
|

He was a bad boy
I mean the one that's pretty bad at everything
He's a bit of an entrepreneur
as an entrepreneur
he knows a thing or two about
lying to people
Fluctuating between running grifts and taking advantage
and violent fantasies of taking revenge
of being grifted and disadvantaged
He was a pretty lay back dude
unless you got on his wrong side
Going hard
75 days strong
Going hard
down that self improvement line
Link to link
all that self improvement

Don't try

Try and let go of mystic, mistakes
Don't try to hold on to what's gone
Don't try
and fly
it is not in our interest
to be seen
as so bold, as a would be hero
all we got for our time
was an empty pocket
and raising anxieties
that none of it was worth while
Don't try to work it out
It'll work itself out
Don't respond to it
it just wants attention
Don't try
and fly
it is not in our interest
to be seen
as so bold, as a would be hero
all we got for our time
was an empty pocket
and raising anxieties
that none of it was worth while
Don't try to work it out
It'll work itself out
Don't respond to it
it just wants ya money

The Dreadosphere

Where do we go from here?
How did we get here?
He wrote the story of the “dreadosphere” as an allegory type of thing. You know… a story that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, generally speaking its some sort of moral or political one.
As a warning as such. Wrapped up in a hacky sci fi story, a cautionary tale based in part on hard lived life experiences that fostered a pretty sharp understanding of how the world really works. It wasn’t really an academic informed class consciousness, but more one based on lived experiences of economic imperatives, down turns and austerity plans. That’s cold unblinking focus only ever seemed trained on those with less to begin with.
The “Dreadosphere” was a blunt instrument, to get his specific point across. But I still thought it was better then “unobtainium”
Imagine his surprise, he’d be turning in his grave, the gasps could be heard from his well heeled estate. As we watch these tech execs talk about creating. A whole new world were everything is possible. A the velvet curtain drops to reveal. The namesake to the that earlier warning. Now reframed as homage. To his original masterpiece and its several spin off’s. All with the same message in mind.
Beware of the Dreadosphere
Pour one out to the creators
Raise a glass to the creators

looks like D Boon
sounds like Peter Dutton
looks like D Boon
of the famed minutemen
looks like D Boon
acts like Peter Dutton
looks like D Boon
or a different D Boon
laid back
larrikinism
distracts
from all the fucked up isms
52 cans what a hero
single sitting on a long haul
what a pleasure that would have been
not just to witness
but for those who had to placate and pamper
all those heroic brain damaging
We're all stuck here chocking
on chicko rolls
big M calendars
hot rods still run on kids blood
there's more to life then chicko rolls
and big M calendars
the hot rod still run on kids blood
Strong arming piss turned in to a pissing contest
all the while there is kids buried in their homes
Fish n chip shop greasy posters
and dead Palestinian kids
Strong arming piss turned in to a pissing contest
How much damage can one brain take
I guess its not as bad
as the victims of the air strikes
lived in fear till that fear came true
I just don't wanna be
bad for the economy

Something out of nothing
04:29
|

Making something out of nothing
What's been said, has been said
Rest assured I don't nothing
Out of place Out of space regreace
Killing me more
killing floor
killing my interests everything more
Thus the speaker speaks up
But I'm not quite sure
exactly what he's angling for
Making something out of nothing
What's been said, has been said
Rest assured I don't nothing
Out of place Out of space disgrace
Out of place Out of space disgrace

Libertarian librarian

Replaced the terminator
this shit looks terminal
Could have made a joke about
a pelican landing on yr head dropping a fish
in your trousers, in the rain
How long to fuck this one up
How long till you fuck the next one up
How long till you fuck this one up
How long till you fuck the next one up
I guess I don't know any libertarian librarians
and I don't live online
but I sit pretty close just outside
push the button and you shall receive
cold hard cash was how it used to be
now everybody smashes that button
for a nice warm cup of tea
I guess I don't know any libertarian librarians

Jokes already run the race is over
cant put the genie back in the bottle
try to tell you what I think
but it sold
it sold for way more then it was worth
but it sold
it sold for way more then on the paper
Jokes already run the race is over
cant put the genie back in there
gonna tell you what I think
still got bruises on my feet
but it sold
it sold for way more then it was worth
but it sold
it sold for way more then on the paper
Jokes already run the race is over
cant put the genie back in the bottle
gonna tell you how I feel
still got those bruises on my head
but it sold
it sold for way more then it was worth
but it sold
the suckers they keep being born
Jokes already run the race is over
cant put the genie back in the bottle
gonna tell you what I think
still got those bruises on my feet

Ze Wisenheimer Melbourne, Australia
Started by Zac as a bedroom psych krautrock project. In 2022 the project drew in Michelle and Nate and the trio inadvertently morphed Zac’s songs into an entirely new and formidable beast. Today, Ze Wisenheimer is a post punk band bringing conflicted noise with infectious beats, paranoiac repetition with hooks and melody, and stream-of-conscious rants with tongue-in-cheek puns. ... more
