Hey, hey, I got something to say
but my lips won't move, they are made out of clay
I 'm alive on stage, my performance rocks
but in the night I sleep alone in a box
I 'm a lifeless toy that deserves a chance
to entertain you with my silly dance
and my body hangs on a set of strings
because I 'm too afraid to spread my wings
Don't you push me away
cuz if that's what you want, then that's what you 'll get
the killer smile of a marionette
Hey, hey, I can't get it out
my voice is trapped in a wooden mouth
my tongue is fake and my limbs are numb
my heart is beating like a drum
Why it feels so wrong when I know it's right
to disappear without a fight
when I 've got this thought that lies beneath
I wanna scare you with my porcelain teeth
Don't you push me away
cuz if that's what you want, then that's what you 'll get
the killer smile of a marionette

One of the best releases for 2022! Dark shades of heavy grooves with intelligent touches of blues and grunge. Fans of Stonekind, Buffalo Fuzz and All Them Witches must get a copy of this album today! Dendrites
supported by 31 fans who also own “Killer Smile Of A Marionette”
While the band is undoubtedly indebted to the heavy stoner rock sound of the 90's, they also have a distinctive laid back vibe that make they more than a replica of Kyuss or Fu Manchu. In fact, they delve into psychedelia more than the aforementioned bands did. There are also more heavy metal and less hardcore punk influences in their sound. The bass guitar is quite heavy in the mix and in the forefront in a way that reminds me of groove metal at times. European sound all the way. Great stuff! David Yvinec
