The Factory

[thetworegs]

you have to imagine yourself as a young eighteen year old Reg with a 100 percent mortgage (You wouldn't get one of those now) and a loan for his Triumph Bonneville (I loved that bike) working at the brick company making bricks working on a belt setting 15000 bricks a day two at a time ready for the kiln and he's not happy he wants out he feels old before his time ..he is the bad machine ..but how...how can he get out

Well I fell at the first hurdle my head it hit the floor
I'm not really sure I'm ready
I can take any more
Each day is a mess
everything turns black
I've got that feeling in my heart it is going to crack
Each day seems the same and they turn pretty slow
I can't take another day in this factory
I'm gonna blow
I'm gonna blow

Ive got to escape
I don't know how
But I've got to find a way out this place I got to find it now  I got to gonow

Life is a scream exploding in my mind
I've started turning nasty
I am unkind
I'm viscious with my tounge
I'm viscious with my fists
I'm drinking way too much 
I feel like shit
I've got to get away
I don't know how
I got to get away from this place
I'm ready right now

Break

I'd been a fool for way too long
education I saw as a waste of time
I was too busy being cool to give it any time
I couldn't see or I wasn't told
it was a ticket to the big time
So now here I am with presses
banging out my time
Pushing out there produce and me into the ground
Ive gotta get out of this place
I've gotta get now
I I gotta escape
But I don't know how
I've gotta find a way before it pushes me to the ground
I got to go
I got to go

Young Regs is blasting out his angst...I can hear it your words, voice and music. Your guitar skills get better and better! The lead guitar work is smokin' and it's all to one chord! I made bricks as a young man also but mine were tiny chocolate bricks...I worked at Hershey. But just the same I couldn't wait to get out of there. Well done Regs!

Great guitar work, also very good vocals and the lyrics highlights the story well.
Excellent.

Dripping with vibe. Love the extended intro.

Be a great tune for a movie montage.

This sounds great, Trev. Love that effect that starts the song creating the imagery of the machines and what a fantastic vocal.

Factory work is not fun.  I spent most of my working life in various factories.  You caught the mindset pretty well in this tune both lyrically and musically.  Factory sounds do sound like a very loud rock band sometimes.

Love the sound effects at the beginning, and segway into heavy guitars that have some of the same character of the sound effects!  (And reverse at the end!) Love the overall vibe and vocal delivery. This could be a lost Led Zep track!  For real!  Smokin!

This is great Trev. Tell you what, I can hear a bit of a similarity with Stephens stuff coming through in the vibe here. Maybe it's just the spontenaiety of it.

But anyway... this is great, fresh... very alive!
