Thou'rt the Moon's Aspect, Twain Like the Abyss 'tween Man

by The Seneschal Arrives

1.
You take the beast and make it sleep Let it shed its wool in your arms Animals are fed with the clothing wrapped round your heart You take your feet and seek to reap Let the planet spin in your arms Water all your plants before you leave the desert cries beneath your face the sun stands tired the spider the mother You see the beast that makes us sleep Let it shed its life in your arms Other ones are fed with the hatred wrapped round your heart You take your tears and seek to weep Let the planet flood in your arms Summon all your children, let us leave the angels sing beneath your grave the spider the mother the spider

as the steel took your eyes what did you think youd do as the stars left your smile what did you think youd do as the tears made you wild did you feel like a fool did you think you were cruel as steel clashed beneath weeping stars as the steel took your eyes what did you think youd do as the stars left your smile what did you think youd do as the tears made you wild did you feel like a fool did you think you were cruel let your guard down now feel the burning of a lifetime in flame in reactors we have placed our children blind and deaf and dumb and lame as the steel took your eyes what did you think youd do as the stars made you smile what did you think youd do as the tears left you wild did you feel like a fool did you think you were new let steel clash neath weeping stars

get your children out of bed your anxieties are leaden their incessant chatter like an infestation of boring beetles your bark bleeds all your senses dulled the void licks its lips quartered at the edge of sanity the family breeds no clarity kill them all kill them all

about

Starting out in the mid-50s, The Seneschal Arrives revolves around the two core members Targ Lothervinius and Lok Grédning, two of the most uncompromising and relentless creative forces in avantgarde/independent rock. Leading a fully organic lifestyle on the famed and feared "Wolf Isle", they still avidly write and record music to this very day.

During the late 70s, Targ and Lok were lucky enough to test early analogue Moog Music Inc. and Roland Co. equipment, such as the Model-B and an analog prototype version of the TR-707, long before they were released to market. These special prototypes are featured in a range of their recorded works, along with other analogue equipment.

Since our friends absolutely despise anything digital, this site has been set up by distant friends and diehard fans in an attempt to spread their genius across a broader spectrum of listeners.

This is their seventh album.
