Mend amend

bring and rub

beat the band

I tried

I tried

Shrugged off

the

splintering white

bone

Teeth shaken

out with

a stroke

Brain running

down along

spear

from the wound

in the

eye hole

Stones pounding

in past

the screens

past

the shields

I felt

the nail

driving

into my

foot

while I

felt the

nail

driving

into my

hand

Rub a dub

God and

bring

beat the band

I tried

I tried

What?

when you

can't hear

the bleating

all night

Else he's

strumming

the springs

of his

cot

When?

what you

can't see

is her

tiny mouth

squealing and

shrieking with

laughter

Dispensing

with each

little toe

each little

finger

let them

whirl away

into the

darkness

The pee pee

soaked

trousers

The torn

muddied

dress

No ankles

at the gates

at dusk

ever

caught the

dawning

The audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

No Fado

live

from last

year's

winning

country

Twelve

bunnies

in a

hutch

for nine

new weeks

The audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

its audience

is waiting

and it

will catch

my toes

it will

catch my

fingers

The pee -

pee soaked

trousers

The torn

muddied

dress

Forever and

ever

Forever and

ever

Forever and

ever

Forever and

ever

Listening to Scott Walker is supremely satisfying. This track is so cool... He just knows the best combination of words to string together that just sound so *good*, even if they don't even make sense.

This is beautiful and disturbing at the same time...

I am happy he does Silas, we have already enough of bloody pop (artists) haven´t we. This music is like the kitchen where you try new recepts, without this, music would die, if no new impulses come in.

Well, even mentioning this in the same breath as metal seems pointless -- it's like comparing a children's book to Ulysses. Metal, bless it, possibly has a place somewhere (mmm, maybe located in the developing, barely pubescent minds of young lads). Scott's oeuvre could be called vacant-garde art music, or modernist musical theatre.

It makes you wonder just how legitimately disturbed Scott Walker is to make something like this, especially after having success as a pop artist. He could sit in an empty room with Michael Gira and scare him.

“Herpes on clit.” (Tilt.) Some one snap that up as sure-fire contract-breaker! He is sui generis!!

“BLOwing up bullfrogs with a straw/ Staring into their eyes before they explode..” Difficult (from Bisch Bosch) to buy it,,at the moment....on the basis of that line, alone...

Shrugged off the splintering white bone, teeth shaken out with a stroke . Brain running down the long spear from the wound in the eye-hole. Stones pounding in past the screens! Past the shields! I felt the nail driving into my foot, while I felt the nail driving into my hand! Amazing imagery. This is genius

There are so many classy metal bands! You must just have had some bad luck. Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth wanted his album "Watershed" to be a metal version of The Drift. According to himself he failed but it turned out well anyway.
