lyrics

Paper actors exploding in the crowd
Peals of thunder suspended in the sky
Praying mantes devouring hornets’ brains
Celebration of cruelty among all species

You’re a fight you’ll never give up
the line on the map
You’re the border that you need to cross
Believe in nerve cells and links
We’re cogs in the wheel
We’re quavers in a symphony

Broken workers go marching down the town
Burning airplanes are crashing to the ground
Papal encyclicals against the faith
Every word of love’s falling on deaf ears

You’re a fight you’ll never give up
the line on the map
You’re the border that you need to cross
Believe in nerve cells and links
We’re cogs in the wheel
We’re quavers in a symphony

Anywhere you want to go
Anytime you feel so low
And the clouds come down too fast
And the rain is turned to dust
And your time is running slow
Cry a river, feel its flow
Take a picture of your heart
Turn the tide and win your mind

You’re a fight you’ll never give up
the line on the map
You’re the border that you need to cross
Believe in nerve cells and links
We’re cogs in the wheel
We’re quavers in a symphony

about

Sterbus Rome, Italy

Sterbus are from Rome, but their true musical spirit wanders much further afield, from the joyful power-pop of The Lemon Twigs to the rainy Portland of Elliott Smith and certainly all the South of England's ground-soils Cardiacs and XTC.

"Solar Barbecue" marks their comeback with a new ALL-INSTRUMENTAL opus centered around funny chords, frantic paces and exhilarating arrangements.
