In My Mouth

from My New Head by Fredo Viola

    Made with love and with complete devotion to the craft of music listening, we have created an immersive album experience and tailored it to the format of hi-fi vinyl. All the dynamics are intact, the vinyl thick and playing time condusive to better sound quality, vinyl is truly how this album was made to be heard.

    This LP record was manufactured at Gotta Groove Records, and was mastered by Dave McNair at Dave McNair Mastering, with lacquer mastering by Nick Townsend at Townsend Mastering.

    Includes unlimited streaming of My New Head via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    3-Panel Vertical Gatefold Digipak
    11 song CD with small poster/lyrics sheet

    A beautiful and surprising gatefold package protects this cd, whose audio dynamics have largely been left intact. As a consequence, you may have to notch up the volume a little bit, but it will be worth it, as you will hear the swell and quiet parts closer to the way they were made to be heard.

    This cd was manufactured at Groove House Records, and was mastered by Dave McNair at Dave McNair Mastering.

    Includes unlimited streaming of My New Head via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

And now I wanna take a little bit of you in my mouth.
And now I wanna make a dream come over this house.
I only started to take you into my heart.
I only started just to take you into my heart.

Because of pride my smile is purple orange
and it’s twisted in place,
with barbs and lashes at the edges
stretching open my face.

I’m pages ripped out of a journal, torn into shreds.
I’m an empty socket with the current flowing, promising death.

I’m going to kick the sick out of my crumpled gods,
gonna kick the sick out of my crumpled gods,
gonna kick the sick out of my crumpled gods!

Wind and trees and rustling leaves
you never leave my heart.

And now I’m fine, I tell my people, but I still see that face
who swore about me that I’d never even finish the race.
I’ve eaten too much of the acid that I cooked with regret.
There’s a hole below me that I’m patching
with commitment and debt.

Although I’m proud, my pride’s a creature that
I’ve locked away in a cage.
We talk occasionally
but I always feel the hum of his rage.

Those pages ripped out of a journal, torn into shreds.
That empty socket with the current flowing, promising death.

I’m going to kick the sick out of my crumpled gods,
gonna kick the sick out of my crumpled gods,
gonna kick the sick out of my crumpled gods!
