Saw Johnny tonight, but we didn't say hello to each other
We're all moving pretty fast these days
bumping round like bumper cars
Slippery kelp in the tide
It's awful hard to hang on to each other
Flying around hot H2O molecules
Balls that come in contact often alter their direction
High pressure days, high pressure
high pressure days, high pressure!
Our paths still cross in these high pressure days,
A crowd pattern will emerge
Exchange phone numbers, wither away
High pressure days, finding that our motions
High pressure nights, fit into a pattern

Cannibals - 1979

1,2,3,4!
I see a lot of people lined up in formation
Waiting for lively moments that come to them like victims
Rows and rows and rows of vampire eyes
This is a generation of cannibals
(Chorus)
Lines & lines & lines & lines of people
Rows & rows of people feasting on a rare man's life
Lines and line of people, waiting for a victim
This is a generation of cannibals
(Chorus)
People out there lying, waiting to be discovered
People out there lying, hoping to be discovered
Rows & rows of graves waiting to be uncovered
This is a generation of cannibals,
Hoping some rare man's blood is going to give them life
Hoping some rare man's blood is going to give them life
Hoping some rare man's blood is going to give them life
This is a generation of cannibals

I've been working for years
I can barely afford to buy some beers
Working can feel so good!(x3)
I'm gonna find me some work where my boss don't get rich off me(x3)
I'm gonna find me some work, help out the community(x3)
Working can feel so good

UNITS - Scott Ryser Brooklyn, New York
Scott Ryser and his partner & wife, Rachel Webber, were the principal, songwriters, synth players, singers and filmmakers for the UNITS. The UNITS were one of America’s first electronic new wave bands and have been cited along with The Screamers and Suicide as pioneers of the music genre “synthpunk”.

I bought the 12 inch single for Bela Lugosi’s Dead at Fred’s records in St. John’s, Newfoundland in the eighties and it remained a treasured item in my collection until it was lost, left behind, stolen, loaned out, whatever. I accepted that that item was lost to time and likely irreplaceable. Hence my utter shock to see that I will once again hear this evocative masterwork on vinyl along with an extra three tracks. I recall Boys was included on the B-side of that long list single. Thank you!

"...an album that's very difficult to pigeon-hole as somehow the phrase "experimental rock" really doesn't do this œuvre justice. Instead, Elsa Kristina Sundin has created a multi-layered and multi-textured shifting soundscape, where listening to each track is akin to clawing away at the surface to the discoveries that lie beneath..." https://reclaimingthecolonies-onestateatatime.blogspot.com
