Imagine Kurt Weill conjuring up images of prewar Berlin while a falsetto vocalist screams, squeaks and squawks his way through every number like some rambling madman, and you've got the picture. Their lyrics range from the subtle romanticism of 'Sailors'; to the outright blasphemous 'Banging in the Nails'. While the album deals with Jesus, prostitutes, junkies, deranged children and disillusioned angels, special vitriol is reserved for Slough. Apparently \"It's grim up north but it's grimmer than that in Slough, I'll sing you a song if you drop a bomb on Slough \". It's funny, weird, disturbing stuff.
a legendary album with great songs like, Roll Up, Banging in the Nails ♥, Alone with the moon, Heaven to Hell, Gypsy Lament... and then your just halfway the album yet. ;) surely one of Tiger Lillies best albums.
*** plz. visit my channel if you seek more Tiger Lillies, I'm uploading the albums.
The songs get even more meaning when you play them in the right order. ;) ***
