John had some lyrics, and this popped out last night. Guitar and bass tones are courtesy of the new IK Tonex pedal. Although I'm still figuring things out, it is a very cool piece of kit.

Words, words, words, ....
for a song with some deep stuff lyrics this thing rocks a major amount... it's like a dump truck came into my yard and left about 18 cube of crushed rock (which made me very happy btw, because I love crushed rocks)...maybe it's that fuzzy distorted guitar crunch that reminds me of crushed rocks... either way this thing smokes...
the vocals are controlled greatness... I wonder though what you could do if you really tried... it sounds way too easy to me!
Every time I hear Blooby or Blooby and Lurker songs... they all hit the spot where I want a repeat! no exception here.
Nice 60's style rocker. Insightful lyrics, great tones and performance.
Awesome song in a classic rock style. love the lyrics, the vocals are just great. The music is fantastic. love it
Listening in the car watching my youngest play football and the bass is rocking my body sounds great ....an excellent vocal a powerful track
Blooby and Lurker. What a dynamic duo! Great playing, great sounds and energy.
Just a wonderful rock song, guys! The chorus is out of this world, I'm humming it the rest of the day!
Enjoyable listening!
I dig this classic sound and the cool robbo tom hits in the chorus caught my attention (haha, the little things we hear that stand out). Blooby's guitar playing is top notch and fits well with the changing from rhythm to riffing throughout the song. A very tasty lead solo! I like the introspective words and Lurker's vocals are right on the money. I enjoyed the listen!
One thing I would like to point out is you write very "singable" music. Great changes, tones, textures and various wizardry. And then someone steps in and adds badass vocals is just icing on the cake because it makes it listenable too.
Well done guys, it's a really tough thing to be musically cohesive.
What a great sound! That guitar work is fantastic and awesome production skills presented here. Stellar vocal performance and great lyrics. Love that ending with the fading vocal.
This is great. Really strong song songwriting. Big guitars. Big vocals. Big production. And so catchy.
I'll be singing this today.

Drums are massive on this.
Lurkers on top form.
Guitar bites like a shark, I like the way the guitar changes I to a more subtle style before attacking again .
Full blast on my stereo in the car and it rocks.
Like the tone on that lead as well.
Excellent.
Great guitar licks..
communication between the guitar and vocals is so spot on.
Nice one chaps
Reminds me a bit of the Tom Robinson band
Nick
I really liked the vibe of this song, great mixing/production. Great vocals and guitar licks
Great work
Another great piece of song writing guys, creative and unique as ever. Do love the sound of that guitar. Class lads.

I appreciate the sentiment, but there are definitely some curveballs thrown Lurker's way. He has had to sing over 3/4, 5/4, 7/8...I even threw 11/8 at him one day. He has scatted, done four part harmonies, created a Gentle Giant-like vocal round along with anything else this Four Roses bourbon is inhibiting me from recalling. We don't normally slap each other on the back, but I am super appreciative not only of his willingness to tolerate my musical eccentricities but actually amplify them to take them farther. This doesn't even take into account the tunes he brings in for me to twirl my imaginary moustache and attempt to subvert.

I always thought this two man team was (and is) great. They say real men don't give high fives, but I do and am proud of it. Give yourselves (In a Philadelphia accent) a cupla too tree high fives!
Whatever time signature and song idea, glad you both have worked together as a team and with huge success musically.
John is reminding me of Jack Bruce on the verses. This is gorgeous and heavy psych-rock - right up my street. Interesting lyrical subject matter too - Jungian collective unconscious... nature versus nurture.
Oh yeah - and the guitar work is fucking awesome!!!!!
