_doomcakes_ If Yeast Machine was holding anything back before, that's all gone now. The proverbial plaster has been ripped off, and Yeast Machine bears their heart, giving us their strongest, most genuine performance yet. "Sleaze" is like a raw nerve, an unhealed wound that's been left to fester in a lot of darkness and neglect. The time has come to "rip it off" and talk (scream) about it. The healing will come after.
Favorite track: Garden Wall.

Intro 02:12
The train arrives The train arrives And within five captive lives The train arrives Hold your breath To escape Your little death The evening came Unexpectedly The hour demands The usual fee Water runs Through open hands Stone to stone And sand to sand

Kick in the door Spread like kudzu The room is full The room is overfilled with you Do what you want to Do what you are Universal Avatar And oh I come along in every shape Show me love or I’ll dissolve in space Paint the wall With your nose if you get naked they might Ban all clothes and Do what you want to Do what you are Universal Avatar and oh I come along in every shape Show me love or I’ll dissolve in space Wake me up Princess and the Pea What fun it was What fun it was to see Did what I wanted Did what I was Universal Fabulous Become a ghost Build your ghost fence Declaration of transcendence Do what you want to Do what you are Universal Avatar Build a spaceship Conquer moon Find the rich and Become tycoon Do what you want to Do what you are Universal Avatar Wake me up Princess and the Pea What fun it was What fun it was to see Did what I wanted Did what I was Universal Fabulous Wake me up From my spree What fun it was What fun it was to see Did what I wanted Did what I was Universal Fabulous

Banshee 05:44
Old Lady I, with all my fears Separated our tears I feel your ghost Kissing me red Faith inside me But heaven is dead Angry lights From the morning sun Down You hold on when I run Bring me down Down to the mound You didn’t leave me You’re still here Even though I killed the years Who are you, are you of me? The quiet voice In the fallen tree Angry lights From the morning sun Down You hold on when I run Bring me down Down to the mound Hold on when I run Down to the mound Hold on when I run Down to the mound Down, down, down Down, down, down Where the children play And the stories were told By the eternal stones Of the dead and the cold Where the children hide Cause they made friends with the ghost And they are calling her name And the story unfolds By the eternal stones Of the dead and the cold Where the children hide Cause they made friends with the ghost And they are calling her name And the story unfolds By the eternal stones Of the dead and the cold Where the children hide Cause they made friends with the ghost And they are calling her name And the story unfolds By the eternal stones Where the children hide

Garden Wall 06:18
Merciless The glowing rails Monotonously, moving steel, that doesn’t feel Your stream of unconsciousness Can you see from afar The hungry shooting star In the distance it goes down, it goes down, it goes down Into your Shangri-La Your garden grows Behind the wall The words shine bright You could have it all Crumbling The stone snake’s skin And all the people underneath want a piece All the years they stood beside in peace Your wall has been a liar People told you bout the wires But you don’t listen anymore cause you hear the whispers call And the crackling of the fire Your garden grows Behind the wall The words shine bright You could have it all A little hand grips through the cracks Skin is dry, nails are black When you get caught, it pulls you in You are one, where have you been? The other side so close The other eye, still closed You open it and you’ll see The best view on earth Your garden grows Behind the wall The words shine bright I love you all

1st of July 02:28
My words are shy They wonder why It comes down to us First of July I tend to be In a pretender’s body I feel light When you shine on me The other night Keys crushed my head I can’t recall The words you said I tend to be In a pretender’s body The wild reigns my brain And it reigns rent-free

I called your name Please help me brother Tonight we watch Our little worlds collide The universe Made room for failure Tonight we tear our Brittle pillars down We don’t know What’s been out there Years have passed But you look just the same I called your name Please help me brother Help me find A good way out of here Between the lines Mood of the times You try to catch mine Before it blows away Forget my name Don't blame me brother I shut your eyes As our worlds combine You'll hate me now But thank me later Tonight we'll watch The tired sky fall down I broke your line And drew a circle The world will turn With you forever now I lost this game Now help me brother Help me find A good way out of here Between the lines Mood of the times You try to catch mine Before it blows away And then I went down to the park And when I entered the park I saw them two Sitting and waiting in the dark On the grass, waiting for something For some kind of enlightenment For the way out of their misery They had built with their own four hands But their hands had become wings And they tried to fly but they couldn’t Because their wings were glued to each other And then one said to the other, Jump! But he couldn’t So she said it again: Jump! Jump harder than you’ve ever jumped in your entire life But her brother could not fly Because he was glued to her wings And she repeated it Once and twice and three times And she screamed for all one is worth Jump Brother! Jump! Jump! Jump! Days open like a flower bed in spring Blossoms falling off my heavy wings I catch your breath and you try to catch mine Two lost birds fly perfectly in line Days open like a flower bed in spring Blossoms falling off my heavy wings I catch your breath and you try to catch mine Two lost birds fly perfectly in line

Overrated undermined My mind was dated all the time Figured out a way that’s fine Can you solve my perfect crime? Desert carved into my skin My brain is melting, let me in Naked under phony fur Above our heads the circling bird Above our heads The circling bird Overrated undermined Life has treated me unkind I did my best to make it worse I formulated my own curse Desert carved into my skin My brain is melting, let me in Naked under phony fur Above our heads the circling bird Above our heads The circling bird The final drop Time to decide To be the prey Or Vogel sein But in the end It’s all the same And my wings Go up in flames Above our heads Engraved our names Above our heads Our rotten graves

Rip It Off 06:26
The day has come To take off from here, my son Even if the world offers you pearls Then eats you up alive You move hand over hand You move sin over sin Boy you can choose your own booze And which sea you drown in You gotta rip it off Send rivers down your arm You gotta rip it off It won’t do you any harm Through the rabbit hole A new chapter has begun You gotta rip it off Said the mother to the son Take care, my child I know you would Local wildlife often drowns in the biggest pool Of the neighborhood Beware, my child You know you should Build a boat and sail the seas Now I just drift like wood You gotta rip it off Send rivers down your arm You gotta rip it off It won’t do you any harm Through the rabbit hole A new chapter has begun You gotta rip it off Said the mother to the son You gotta rip it off Send rivers down your arm You gotta rip it off It won’t do you any harm Through the rabbit hole A new chapter has begun You gotta rip it off Said the mother to the son You gotta rip it off You gotta rip it off Rip it off You’ll walk another line which I haven’t drawn And you’ll walk alone, my love You gotta rip it off Rip it off You’ll walk another line which I haven’t drawn And you’ll walk alone, my love You gotta rip it off Rip it off

I Can See 03:41
My concrete walls Feel safe and warm On the other side Rages a storm When my eyelids fall I can see I can see I can see When my eyelids fall I can see I can see I can see When my eyelids fall I can see I can see I can see When my eyelids fall I can see I can see I can see I can see what’s scaring me All my Ghosts unite From this cruel world I want to hide

about

SLEAZE is the gateway drug for stoner rock. Calm becomes tension and dissolves into sensation. Hard fuzzy riffs from two guitars mix with catchy vocals. Danceable beats mix with psychedelic atmosphere.

SLEAZE emphasizes rawness without click tracks. Recorded live, the album sometimes allows itself a tempo increase, sometimes sleaziness. The lyrics hover between melancholy, transience and madness.
