  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    A ‘paranoia of sound’ surrounds spoken word performer Johny Brown on this deep dive into the 21st Century splintering of consensus, the explosion of extremist politics, and the havoc wrought by Covid-19.

    Spoken word / sound art / drone

    12" lathe-cut record produced in-house on a valve-driven RCA studio-quality lathe from the rock n’ roll-era. Recorded and mixed to open reel, and mastered to 12” disc by Dog Tunnel, Slurred Words 2 has the feel of an artefact from a more coherent past. It is also a warning to be on guard against misdirection as we drift towards fragmentary and intangible digital futures.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Slurred Words, Volume 2: Detrimental Connotations via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

LEGAL HIGH
And yet…
Waking up, taking a legal high, going to sleep, waking up, taking another legal high, going to sleep again.
I am not eating I am not associating…
I don’t imagine it’s going to solve the problem.
We think we are dying because we are poor and we eat badly
Now we know it is something else again
So many people dying we start calling it ghost disease
Ghost ship with skeletons on board then washes up on beach
Carrying a viral Pneumonia of unknown cause
Unwanted cargo
Government mask figures as matter of course
Britain’s history as a nuclear weapons state with everything to play for
I have woken up late in the wrong part of the city.
I am the very picture of weather-weirding due to climate change.
Somewhere within the frame of this poem I could well find the key that would save us all
Well wouldn’t that be magic
And magic is certainly the key here
I have the things at hand.
They are being ingested a lot
Since time shot me dead.
