about

It's a 1 week late trick or treat, or an early Christmas present- tuck into the punk devices of The Walking Who-
The song was started in a tin shed in Byron Bay, Australia around 2019, and was finished on the 1st of November 2022 in the sub-terrestrial underground tunnels of Prague.. aka: the beautifully ravenous 'Studio Faust Records'.
The song holds it's Australianess whilst layering a strict pallet of eastern European guitars, mic's & synthesisers born between 1960-1985. Mixed on a 70's SSL 4000E console to tape you have no excuse but to accept the imperfections as charm, it is not possible to make a digital revision- I normally wouldn't mix this way because it takes twice as long, but this song needed it.

lyrics

No matter where we go, it’s Halloween on Christmas

Just sweep it off the shelf,

Cause there we are now baby

The shadow for you queen, is hallelujah baby

Theres nothing left to face, just semi tones now Darlin

Same old stories, hallow be thy name,
We knuckle on to start again

Babe I tell you, all good things are fate
See I tie It up to follow me

I won’t admit I got done,

I wanted me it to get done

I won’t admit I am done
Girl won’t you tell me I’m done.

No matter what we learn,

Its halloween on Christmas

Just sweep it off the shelf
hallelujah Darlin

Same old stories, hallow be thy name
We knuckle on to start again
Babe I tell you, all good things are fate
See I tie it up to follow me,

I won’t admit I got done,
I wanted me to get done
Someone should tell me i'm done
