The Ciobar is over.

The 70s diamond sweaters too.

The soft jazz by the fireplace as well.

But the good season is starting.
March 21 is near, don't get caught unprepared.

If the cold has frozen your desire to have fun, if you've put the guitar in the basement and now relax with the dolphin songs from a new-age CD, if you're already thinking of starting a family and retiring to the valley of the gardens to make spelt and chickpea soups for your grandchildren, this is the CD for you.

You're still young, always remember that.

Open up the car roof; if it's a sedan, use the grinder. Rip your sweater, or give it to your grandpa, and put on a nice Hawaiian shirt. Sell the new-age CDs, and indulge in some carefree, fun rock n roll; this is the CD for you.

Look at the cover, what does it inspire in you?
Tell the truth: you think you still have plenty of youth to burn. Who cares about the mortgage, the station wagon payment, the project you have to deliver in a month but are still deciding on the paper format, the bracelet you have to give to your woman for March 8? Mexico is closer than you think; this is the CD for you.
Let rock n roll show you the way, get caught up in the distorted riffs and the wa-wa, the walls of fuzz, and the drum bursts. Pure rock from other times, brought back as it should be in ours.
Leave all those people who live like zombies between home-road-office-road-grocery-home. You have rock n roll. You understand, they don’t; or maybe you're about to understand, but you don't have this CD, but I won't stop reminding you, this is the CD for you.
You know when you play that CD you like so much, and you like it because it's varied, with rock tracks and ballads, perfect for all seasons, right? No. The good season is starting, you need a CD with maybe a slightly cleaner guitar, leave the ballads for the valley of the gardens, you're going to the beach, you have the Hawaiian shirt, not the diamond sweater, remember. You have everything you need, you're just missing the CD.
So, to recap: you have the car; the girl too (otherwise, well, take that friend who always gives you a strange look); you probably know some exotic plant growers; so:

Gas, ass and grass... go with the Fu!

Tracklist Lyrics and Videos

01   Regal Begal (02:27)

I've got a pair rollin' from my head
Im Diggin' deep getting on as planned

I've got this number runnin' through my head
Say the word tell me where and when
I Move in Motion I can see it clear
Just get in and drive me out of here

I've got a pair rollin' from my head
Im Diggin' deep geting on as planned

I swear I got a lever hooked to the right
Hell on Wheels since the start of time
Last word heard and I've got mine
Hung on the wall swingin mechanized

Come and gone blast away the sight
Melted down, all right
Back seat driver seein' through my eyes
Up from the ground
that's right
(repeat)

02   Missing Link (03:23)

Crushing down the top of a motoring so
watch the road fold
Eighteen hell wheeler cryin' out for more
everybody knows..
Center divide everything to the right
before I go..
Hand full of nothing from inside
ready roll!

Up from the floor a moment or more
Did I win a sure bet, I wanted to get
Stand lazy remote four

What can I say thing are goin' my way.. accelerate!!
Let it run so I can get up and go-wheel pullin more
See yourself risin' on a screen that's shown.. I live for
Clear as night for the 100th time-breakin all

Up from the floor a moment or more
Did I win a sure bet, I wanted to get
Stand lazy remote four

03   Asphalt Risin' (03:13)

I've got a full board on a frame in the yard
Ive got a half grown, and I ain't going far
With a hurst shift...gettin' me into four
And a hand full-I'll be needin' more

Of a super sea
a super sea
a super sea is what I need

Straight off the line...Im better every time
Pulled a left lane...supercharged it fine
Took a fourth try...to a star at right
Pushed a button for...a ride into the sky

I've got a full board on a frame in the yard
Ive got a half grown, and I ain't going far
With a hurst shift...gettin' me into four
And a hand full-I'll be needin' more

04   Neptune's Convoy (05:08)

Knock-down loaded
Asphalt rollin'
Can you do me one better
With a magnified header

I feel nothin'-I feel it all the time
I feel nothin'-doin' just fine

Ya knew all along
Pushed out of that arm
One-hundred and fifty
Will do you no wrong

I feel nothin'-I feel it all the time
I feel nothin'-doin' just fine

For the longest time
Been ridin' so slow
Gear grindin' I didn't know

Lend me and you are ( I always thought it was "You led me to war! I can see a so far)
I can see so far

05   Redline (02:16)

06   Cyclone Launch (03:27)

07   Strato-Streak (04:04)

Sedate it ain't acid forging the road
Im Chasin' worlds a million miles to go
Someone done ya evil-know

a so long *( I once thought it was "Im sold along")
a so long
a so long

Straight ride from the face on moon
I know what this means.. but how 'bout you?
From a passin' said they'll be there soon *yea (Scott adds "yea" in the live show)

a so long
a so long
a so long

Ten miles of fucked-up road
Solar burnin' things have turned to stone
Ready for the next time they show

08   Solid Hex (02:39)

Runnin' a motor live-shoot through in time
Hustle a fortune give-straighten the side
Chort movin all-burnin' in mind
Well past the start-I'm given' up this time

I know...right on time
I know...checkin' the line
I know...right on time
I know...

Sit there in hiber sound-spacin' a fall
Burnin' a handle thin-don't mind at all
Believe I seen it now-leavin with more
With all of them wrong-still givin' ya for

I know...right on time
I know...checkin' the line
I know...right on time
I know...

09   The Falcon Has Landed (04:23)

10   Seahag (03:15)

Ridin' high
Seein' far beyond this time
Speed demon rollin'.. to the tune of ninety-five
Through another mountain ...barracuda on my side
I heard this story told
'Bout a half a million time

Eight feet wide
Burnin' a path half it's size
Gone without a trace
Surveying all mankind
Full-speed ahead
I Hear it start to grind
Never heard a sound
Like it in my life

Im movin' in a freak show (Or... "Im living in a freak show")
I sink down low
Got a rail ridin'
Im King of the road!!!

11   The Bargain (02:38)

12   Supershooter (03:41)

This is what you needed babe how too
This is what you need..

Keep right had so
Slo-motion roll
Seein' for yourself
Layin' low o' well
Split the road in two
Still more to do
It's goin' on and on
It's goin' on and on

This is what you needed babe how too
This is what you need..

I heard the sound
Goin' round
I Transfixed mine
a more every time
Hands ten and four
Got to get more
Easy -ridin' down
Final highway bound
This is what you needed babe how too
This is what you need..

 "Fu Manchu bring back the crude riffs and the heavy, paced rhythms of Black Sabbath with thunderous and devastating sounds."

 "The voice... uses neither a melodic register nor a screamed one, preferring a tone very close to speech."
