Bucky Slingshot rear back the whip and let loose a progressive cannon of heavy groove propelled by quality song craft, soaring riffs and a golden vocal rasp. This ain't your everyday stoner rock folks. This is something special. Mindblower alert!!

Psychobabble 04:45
was it me you're thinking carefully stumbeling thoughts are followed by moments of clarity afraid of confrontation with reality standing in the way of control is what i do closer, closer further, further, further laughing louder i stay i'm not going away was it you I'm thinking carefully one last time, for sure counting personalities appreciated something under two but one more time in fucking hell i can't pretend louder, louder laughing, falling, falling into silence i feel that you're drifting away was it me i forgot about i'm falling with you

can you imagine, standing there, feeling like your shoes were made out of concrete i can feel the heaviness of the stones, can you feel it too ? i am standing still, not able to make a step trapped between the lines, i cannot see the signs. can you see them, can you see them, can you see them ? i cannot see them, i’m blind ! now i want to move, i want to go my way, but another border forces me to stay i cannot think clearly i am stuck in this one fixed idea get away, get away, get away is the only thing that comes to my mind i was left behind, my way is undefined can you see me, can you see me, can you see me ? i cannot see you, i’m blind ! now i want to move, i want to go my way, but another border forces me to stay

strange vibes penetrating time and space the air is getting thinner bright stars, colliding in my face the spirit seems to simmer i lost my shadow and my mind confusion makes me feel unreal you're so unique, one of a kind only you can make me feel this way insane - when i try to forget in vain - to resist i can't describe your effect on me it's like i am drowning in some kind of unreality i can feel under my skin your sweet secret ingredients let me tend towards addiction because this story never ends it's written in prediction of life insane - when i try to forget in vain - to resist and regret insane - when i try in vain - to resist i'm looking in my face a mirror never lies now, what do i see ? i only see disguise deep inside i feel that this is not for free i can't believe it's true but thats reality insane - when i try to forget in vain - to resist and regret insane - when i try in vain - to resist i'm going insane

Sandburg 05:40
cross the desert we run under the sun and we're gonna melt away this trip is dreadful what is the rule? endless gagging for a drink rising flickering horizon castle in the sand close to ultimate salvation castle in the sand seems like a bad joke a spark of hope cause we are on the rope i am moving but my feet stands still a stones throw away but i have to stay billion miles way we're gonna freak out there is no doubt minds are turning inside out the feeling runs high a pie in the sky seems to be the awful truth rising flickering horizon ruins in the sand close to ultimate salvation ruins in the sand it dawned on me agony deadly lowlands since i'm here i am breathing but my heart stands still to bite the dust but i have to rust dying unjust

Summerrain 04:30
black clouds, moving overhead raindrops running down my skin they are falling on the roofs the sound is loud and frightening like the summerrain in the heart of spain release the strain and ease my pain like the summerrain in the heart of spain wash away the strain and the pain just before the storm oppressive tense atmosphere struck by a falling limb the poet’s dying full of fear like the summerrain in the heart of spain release the strain and ease my pain like the summerrain in the heart of spain wash away the strain and the pain sun is peeking through again birds just wanna fly and sing after cathartic thunderstorm the smell is fresh and enchanting like the summerrain wash away the strain and the pain
