Silly place to park
Teeth go in your neck
All is turning black

The Brood
And I
Need
You!.....

...I know my time is coming
To come beneath the soil
I’m meeting there somebody
My friend, my little beautiful boy...

....Thorns of love I hold them dear
They’re cutting me softly...

First song off the "A Spine/Evidence" EP. Song carries the energy and spectral tone vocal of singer/songwriter Theo Zhykharyev.
I like the swirl all around in this song.

Part 1 of "Smash It Up" would make such a lovely Bridal Procession...all the way up to the moment before Part 2.

An early favorite. This song written by Lloyd Clipston..drummer for Powerplant on the 'People in the Sun' album..just caught my attention. Big Daddy comin' after ya seems to be a cultural
universal YUK!.

Album Grass comes at us DARK..is what the band does so well. "Walk around hang my head, Hang around the living dead...
Hold your tears don't cry for me.." but is what's real brushed with sorrow?

This 2019 song from the album of the same name is
working with this fine video. Also, seeing videos
of live performances now. The sounds, the faces/instruments
are starting to come alive for me.

Often described as Dungeon Synth the 1 hour, 20 tract 'Stump Soup' album is a journey. This instrumental is a perfect example of the imagery in sound that Theo spun and the Powerplant band
perfected.

I like the synth-punk. Theo Zhykharyev and the band's
take on what is possible with the genre is always welcome.

Disabilities are an equal opportunity fact.. They happen.
Some people can't consume food orally.
Tube fed. Jake explains the process.
Nod if you know what Chicken Vindaloo references.
