"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
