Rating: Love or regret?
Despair or hope?
It doesn't matter what you manage to feel in this album. As long as you end up with that classic bittersweet aftertaste of truly lived experiences. Black Holes In The Sand tells an emotion. It does so by whispering it softly.
The perfect soundtrack for making love in front of a burning fire. This is the album to cry in solitude and cleanse your ears from all that rock chaos you've been listening to in the previous days. An exceptional Viaticum for walking half a day a meter above the ground. An enviable minimalism made of guitar and voice, in the wake of a hard-to-die romanticism.
Few images, six in total, but they fully tell your personal movie, focusing on everything worthwhile, but not necessarily beautiful, that you've experienced lately.
Here's that strange feeling of frustration again.
Here's my and your smile once more despite the eternal boredom.
Here's yet another sunset watched from the shore.
Close to strange black holes in the sand.
Tracklist and Lyrics
03 Still Water (05:48)
Buried in the sand an ancient talisman touched by a
thousand hands in violence
uncharted waters call to the desert's inner soil but lead us to a wall of silence and as i lie amongst the stones, carvings and bones the still waters run deep
buried in the sand an ancient talisman touched by a thousand hands in violence
this monument to greed we are cowering beneath is crushing everything we fought for and as i lie among the stones, carvings and bones the still waters run
deep
05 Diane (04:13)
Hey little girl do you need a ride?
I've got room in my wagon why don't you hop inside
We could cruise down Robert Street all night long
But I think I'll just rape you and kill you instead

I heard there's a party at Lake Cove
It'd be so much easier if I drove
We could check it out
We could go and see
Oh won't you come take a ride with me
Diane Diane Diane
Diane Diane Diane
We could lay in the weeds (?) for a little while
I'll put all your clothes in a nice neat little pile
You're the cutest girl I've ever seen in my life
But it's over now and with my knife
Diane Diane Diane
Diane Diane Diane
