about

There were a few Pixie's references flying around when we recorded Visualiser, and I ended up redoing all the vocals through a Leslie (spinning) speaker to trip it out even more. I wrote it about going further into loneliness to take hold of it. When we first started recording it was mostly lyrics and just a couple of chords, and Nick walked in with the bass riff which became the main part of the song. He'd borrowed a p-bass from the guy Murray who owns the building, and liked it so much he ended up convincing him to sell it.

lyrics

I see myself in a darkened glass
Tie myself to the sinking mast
You ain’t who you say you are
I see myself in darkened glass

I see myself in a wide black arch
Pass over air and a liquid lunch
Smoke the seal with a single punch
I see myself in wide black arch

Well I know too well what you can’t handle
Serve it every day with wooden paddle
And a friend to help you shovel it all in

I see myself in darkened glass
Phone call I’m alone at last
If I die on the street, sweep up like plaster
Or maybe I’ll be blown back in the wind
In a plume of white, come apart in the gale
That blows at night and rain back down
On your window pane and rain back down
On your window oh

about

Georgia Knight Melbourne, Australia

Georgia Knight is known for her resonant vocal range which can change in an instant from ear-whisperingly close to frenzied thrash. Her guitar playing style is similar, with uninhibited chords recognisable in a cover of Big Star’s ‘Kanga Roo’ on an out-of-tune 12 string.
Knight’s roots span trad-folk to grunge, citing Nina Simone, Sandy Denny and instrumental trio Dirty Three as influences.
