METAL MOTHER // 'PRIS'




"Pris" is the first single from the forthcoming “Pagan Jazz,” the new 5 song EP by Los Angeles-based Metal Mother due out June 1st. 

“Pagan Jazz is inspired by and written for the warehouse party world and all the absurd and whimsical fairies it attracts.” Timberman says. “It’s a melancholic dance record”. It’s also some kind of acid drenched surrealist synth creation that beckons, but the kind of beckoning that only comes from the pearly gates: you’ve been invited because you’re dead. It’s dark, electronic, and machine heavy, but at the same time familiar, vulnerable, and motherly."

Carve me from stone 

Take me, take me home 

I have the body, and you have the face 

It doesn’t need to be so complicated 



I’m tied up, can’t get down 

You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around 

Can’t give up, not now no we’ve 

We’ve gotten this far 

We’ve grown up like overnight 

I seen how your presence can cut through the light 

But I forgive, and I don’t fight, I 

I still heal you 



Stop trying to be sexy stop trying to be cool 

Stop trying to be so goddam fabulous all the time 



Pass me on the street 

You find me something to eat 

I am not salty and you’re not sweet 

Perhaps it’s tasty enough 

Bound to bind me 



I’m tied up cant get down 

You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around 

Can’t give up not now no we’ve 

We’ve gotten this far 

We’ve grown up like overnight 

I seen how your presence can cut through the light 

But I forgive, and I don’t fight I 

I still heal you 



Stop trying to be sexy stop trying to be cool 

Stop trying to be so goddam fabulous all the time 

How did the blankets get so complicated 

Memories, you’re talking about memories 



I’m tied up can’t get down 

You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around 

Cant give up not now no we’ve 

We’ve gotten this far 

We’ve grown up like overnight 

I seen how your presence can cut through the light 

But I forgive, and I don’t fight I 

I still heal you 



I’m tied up cant get down 

You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around 

Can’t give up not now no we’ve 

We’ve gotten this far 

We’ve grown up like overnight 

I seen how your presence can cut through the light 

But I forgive, and I don’t fight I 

I still heal you
