Mr. Apocalypse There's a hidden little corner in the backstreets of my mind Where my innocence was slaughtered and it isn't far behind If I thought that I was you, and then you thought that you were me, Then it wouldn't really matter who the real us would be. Would it...? They never called me 'Mr. Apocalypse' Candy for the wicked, a bullet for the good They told me this was justice but I never understood I didn't know that I'd be king when I was brought up as a farmer Prophecies don't mean a thing when you aren't looking for an answer. Do they...?

Fishsticks 03:08
Fishsticks It doesn't matter what I say, 'cause no-one listens anyway And if the world should end today, we'd still be talking about Fishsticks, fishsticks, I don't need no fishsticks I don't care, I'm not there Fishsticks, fishsticks, I just hate fishsticks I don't care, I don't care And now I don't know what to say, as all my notes have blown away But if the moon came out to play, then I'd just tell it I hate Fishsticks, fishsticks,I just hate fishsticks I don't care, I'm not there Fishsticks, fishsticks, Oh Lord, I hate fishsticks I don't care, I don't care Fishsticks, fishsticks, fishy fishy fishsticks I don't care, I'm not there Fishsticks, fishsticks, Oh man, I hate fishsticks I don't care, I don't care

SAIA Blues 03:58
SAIA Blues They brought me here with a blow on the head They left me here in someone else's bed There's no escape and there is no way out My crazy roommate gave me such a clout And I'm not the man I was before... I'd give everything to know If I'm a monster or a hero Down in SAIA, where the demons go They took my sword and my dignity They tore the robe that Wildy gave to me They probed my mind, they probed my brain They told me that my favourite food was PAIN And I just can't take it any more... I'd give everything to know If I'm a monster or a hero Down in SAIA, where the demons go I'm hanging out with other incubi And I can kiss my former life goodbye I'll outlive everyone I've ever known One day I'll find that I am all alone And there is no question any more For I've finally come to know I'm both a monster and a hero Down in SAIA where the demons go

Last Days of the Brotherhood Lucian came to me and said "There is an old man I want dead" I killed him in his bed, in our Father's name Lucian's rolling down the hill Completely unconscious as he can't be killed Set him on fire and he screams so shrill In our Father's name ...It's all a game... It's not the same, just a game... Lucian told me that they had to die All of the Brethren and he told me why One of the Brotherhood is a spy In our Father's name The Speaker came to me and said "These are the people we want dead" Where I walked the streets ran red In our Father's name Lucian told me that my crimes would stop Half of my victims were the men on top Now he had caught me I was for the chop But it turned out my orders they were all mistakes Someone had switched them for a bunch of fakes Someone was playing for tremendous stakes The Night Mother came to me and said "These are the people I want dead" I heard her whispers in my head In our Father's name

The Ballad of Daniel LaGrange My name is Daniel and a spent my whole life Hunting and destroying evil - that's what I do. One day I saw that what I did was also evil From a different point of view Judge not, lest ye be judged Things are not as simple as could be Everything seems different now to me The realisation that my life had been spent poorly left my thoughts all tangled - left me confused I sought a way to make amends and live my life more wisely This I pursued Things I'd done were never as they'd seem Everything before was like a dream Judge not, lest ye be judged I thought that I could find the truth But I all I found was twisted blasphemy The hymns of praise I thought I'd sung Were only songs of lies and larceny My name is Daniel and I spent my whole life Hunting and destroying evil - but I was wrong. Since then I've found a little evil helps bring balance To an over-righteous throng Even good is bad if took too far Neutral shades of grey is all we are Judge not, lest ye be judged

All Machine 03:56
All Machine Joshua: I remember my death, it wasn't good it wasn't fun I remember the flash just as they fired the gun They brought me back to life, the way I'd been... ...but all machine Dorcan: I remember my death, it wasn't good it wasn't fun I remember the pain I felt when I was hung They brought me back to life, just how I'd been... ...but all machine Sethir: I remember my death, it wasn't good it wasn't fun I remember the crash and how my neck was wrung They brought me back to life, just like a dream... ...I'm all machine

The Incubus Song Well, I can turn into the love you never had, Or I can kill and take the place of your old dad Your life is nothing more than a stain on the floor, That's all you mean to me Well, I can torture you at night inside your dreams, And I can feed upon your terror and your screams What evil to thee is just business for me, That's all you need to know

Professional Suicide You won't believe me, but I have found a way To come back tomorrow when I have died today How it works I cannot say But I get more business every day Suicide, professional suicide He'll kill himself to save your soul Dies for money, that's his goal Dying is something that anyone can do If lying and cheating are not the goods for you And if you think that it's not true Then die for me, I'll die for you Suicide, professional suicide He'll kill himself to save your soul Dies for money, that's his goal Dying in your name, the only way to win My death will redeem you of your whole life of sin Why it works I cannot tell My death will save your soul from Hell Suicide, professional suicide He'll kill himself to save your soul Dies for money, that's his goal

The Tome of Demonography I tried to find, in my mind Ways to learn, how to earn power untold What's this? It cannot be! Is it real, or is it me? A whole world for us to see The Tome of Demonography I'll try tonight, Mystic Rite Unseen Truth, Eternal Youth, set me free What's this? It cannot be! Is it real, or is it me? A whole world for us to see The Tome of Demonography I didn't know I didn't think I didn't guess that I'd be Running for my life every step of the way What you can't feel will never heal Will never quite be cured But lurks there in your soul For the rest of your days. What's this? It cannot be! Is it real, or is it me? A whole world for us to see The Tome of Demonography

...And Daryil Answered (From the chronicles of Jakob Pettersohn) - The Quest - They say that in the caves of Izenkar, resides the "Fallen Star" A tome that legend says holds secrets of our race I'm one of few who knows the ancient tongue, And though I am yet young I journeyed forth to seek this long forgotten place I am a child of Daryil – Clan of fear and mystery I am a child of Daryil and I seek my destiny I am a child of Daryil, and you can't take that from me I hope to learn the ancient mystery, of our past history Of how the 'Cubi came to roam our planet's face It must hold secrets of such use to me, like immortality That I'll transcend into a perfect state of grace - The Book - "Wings ruffling in the cool breeze, I approached a cavern that had been hollowed out as if into some sort of shrine. Ever-burning braziers lit the room and there, upon a pedestal suffused with light, was the tome of the Fallen Star. "If only my clan leader could see me now! Lord Daryil... I'd never met him, but they say he is as ancient and as wise as the hills, ruling his domain with a just, but firm hand. If the rumours of what this book contained were true, I might at last gain his respect." "As my hand reached to take the book from its pedestal, I realised I was not alone." - The Battle - "And so, another incubus comes in search of the book of the Fallen Star! Surely you did not think you were the first! The book makes such tempting bait... it is almost too easy. I shall crush your body, torment your soul and take your head-wings as a trophy!" "My sword cast aside in the struggle, I lay helpless, pinned in the Demon's cruel embrace. As the last of my strength ebbed, I looked into the very core of my being, and I uttered a prayer. I prayed that someone, anyone, Being, Creature or God... hear me now and bring salvation. "...And Daryil Answered."

about

...And Daryil Answered, or: Hippie Music Volume 6 : Songs of Lies and Larceny

This is my sixth album, recorded from 2008-2010. As promised, this album is rather lighter than its morbid predecessor. The original theme was 60s psychedelia, which explains the first side of the album and the rather bizarre subtitle.
I have deliberately split it so that the first 'side' is based more upon 1960s and early 1970s instruments, and the second 'side' has more emphasis on 1980s and 1990s sounds.

All tracks were recorded on 8-track tape at 15ips except 4, 5, 7 & 10, which were recorded 16­track using two synced tape machines.
