Systems failed,
You've had your warning,
Now your world will come crashing down
Into the abysmal darkness,
where evil is flowing and vices are found.
My light's been dim down inside me,
there's nothing around but this dark lonely shroud.
Evil stalking and listening, we're watching, waiting for your
arrival home.
(ah-ah-ah)
It's a long fall from where you are
(ah-ah-ah)
We tried to warn you, we've shown you the signs
(ah-ah-ah)
Hold on tight, you're going down!
We want you on your knees,
the one you pray to won't help you now.
You curse your children, their children,
with lies and greed and a mask of love.
You've doomed us all to this fate,
making us weak so the monsters come out,
Hallowed horrors in the corridor,
waiting for you to show them when...
(ah-ah-ah)
It's a long fall from where you are
(ah-ah-ah)
We tried to warn you, we've shown you the signs
(ah-ah-ah)
Hold on tight, you're going down!
Woah, oo-oo.

Dachshund Tulsa, Oklahoma
Dachshund is a progressively-minded rock band hailing from Oklahoma, the gothic-conservative heart of the midwest. We smuggle art-rock ideas into pop-songs, delighting in subtle subversions of the mainstream.
Dachshund recommends:
Self Similar
by The Mercury Tree
The Mercury Tree makes music that sounds unlike any other band. Self Similar finds them balancing melodic sweetness alongside challenging dissonance, in ways that feel as organic as they are strange.
go to album
Excellent Tulsa Prog-Rock! Oceanaut's music is strongly reminiscent of classic prog bands like Yes and Rush, and yet they lean toward a sound of their own. Unraveled is perhaps their best work yet!
go to album
Paul Benjaman is a stalwart of the Tulsa scene, and a longtime friend of ours. His music combines the slurry, twangy jazz-country-rock stylings of Leon Russell with the deep-fried grooves of JJ Cale.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

Juliana Hatfield Sings ELO
by Juliana Hatfield
It’s a match made in heaven: Juliana Hatfield tackles the classic ELO catalog on a road that leads to power pop bliss.
go to album
AutoTuned vocals, pop-punk riffs, frenetic drum loops, a DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ collaboration: the Liverpool band do hyperpop-rock right.
