about

Distilled from that sinking feeling and bigger pictures, Micro Organs (and her Ugly Aura) combine grunge and psychedelic ... more folk to create one tiny angle, a purity of thought. Ripped open and raw, death and decay and rebirth gathering in minor chords and melodic vocals. Jenny Gillespie and Mathieu Blanchard from Halifax, Nova Scotia, form a haunting two piece. less

Track Name: Crooked Hairs
when my body goes crooked
and sprouts crooked hair
and the hair on your head
is no longer there

we'll be born again
with new born eyes again
we'll be born anew
the whole world comes into view

and i don't need anyone
to save me from myself
self-constructed and self-instructed
turned my soft spots into shells

spirals spinning with the momentum of the beginning
we're expanding and commanding light
but how many times can i recite these lines
and expect myself to do what's right?
Track Name: Tincture
i am sleeping,
don't bother to find me
i am sleeping off eternity...
Track Name: Microbes
you wish you knew me
when i was younger
a little bit braver
but that's not right now

when we look at time and space
and everything that's base
it can be too overwhelming to take

why do i expect
you to hold me up when i'm distressed?
i can see the truth through your trees
yet you'll never admit that you know what i mean
you know what i mean.

that's not right now
go on and lie down
you're okay for now

do you remember when were microbes?
floating up from a brine we rose
to breathe in the air and start rooting hair
and one day, all days will no longer be there

why do i expect
our stars to line up in complete randomness?
the chaos is calling and often appalling to see
yet you still won't admit that you know what i mean
cuz our love's a disease.

that's not right now
go on and lie down
you're okay for now
Track Name: God's Song
god came to me in the form of an apparition
came to me in the form of a man
didn't know what i was looking for
when he took me by the hand
and he held me close and whispered in my ear:
sing my song
and i said,
but i'm not that one

so i went down to the valley
asked lucifer to heal my incantation
my indignation and he said, no
there's only one way to go.
he said, no
