THE STUDY OF ILL VEX I'm proud of my room. I'm proud of my home. I'm proud of my street. I'm proud of the town I live in. I'm on the front line You're on the back nine I'm on the front line I'm proud of my state I'm proud of my country. I'm proud of my continent. I'm proud of the hemisphere I live in & I'm proud of the world. The Study of Ill Vex – Peace, Love and Rock n Roll Stop waving your flags in my face, we all come from the same place. Stop waving your flags in my face, we all live in the same place.

You walk around in your Sunday dress You smell good but you look a mess You get around with your black underwear For all to see but you don't care Yeah, you don't care I hope your mothers proud of you You get around covered in tattoos Denim diapers and high heel shoes Pierced nipples and short black hair For all to see but you don't care Yeah, you don't care Now Sweet Loretta modern You’re twerking, you’re filming - posting selfies and You Tubing your bottom I hope your mothers proud of you & Billy Ray too You hit the town with it all hanging out No need to guess 'cause you've left no doubt Some call it smut but you call it flare For all to see but you don't care, yeah, you don't care

AFTER THE SUN Shadow Boxing, Straight Jacket fits The Underground has No Exits Don't Waste My Time, Stonewallin' fits I Ain't The One with No Secrets Back Street Pick Up Know where to run After the Rain After the sun Moonshine Jugs take me away Come Face to Face in old Marseille Eat City and Night Attacks Face the Day & face the facts My soul is full of Angels tracks Back street pick up Know where to run After the rain After the sun After the rain After the sun Can someone please call me a doctor?

G Barrie, back in 1986 With a good spin doctor and a great big bag of tricks And with a Howard kinda buy back scheme It could have been a front page headline dream G Barrie, with hindsight in hand With just one letter, we could have changed this land Now the Broad Arrow cafe may still be the same But with just the letter G Barrie we'd all know your name G Barrie you ended up with Tingles behind your back And we all know that’s a small mans right wing attack Now all the big houses on all the big hills seemed to bring you down Now I'm listening to Johnny on the radio singing don't bring your guns to town what's ya guns worth Barrie? Now I must say I'm getting a little sick and tired of tooth pick chewing narrow minded people calling up talk back radio saying "guns don't kill people, people do" I don't tend to agree with you so why don't you let me loose in a cafe with a fully automatic Swiss Army knife and see how many people I kill in 8 seconds... I reckon just about none! Barry, Barry O!

Soul Man 04:44
SOUL MAN I sold my soul to the soul man I sold my soul to the soul man I sold my soul He sold it to hell I'm on fire There's a beast outside my window There's a beast inside my head I sold my soul He sold it to hell I'm on fire I did not sign no contract I did not make no plans I sold my soul He sold it to hell I'm on fire Hey Satan what you trying to do, I never sold my soul to you I'll meet you at the juke joint inn & I'll buy back my mortal sin 'cause now I'm straight and in control, to you Lucifer I never sold my soul. Now lay me down my soul to keep,
 whilst angles bathe my wounded feet,
 should I die before I wake,
 bless me Lord my soul he'll take I did all you asked I've paid all my dues He sold my soul he sold it to you (CHORUS) I'm on fire

Little Devil 03:18
There was movement at the station for word had passed around Satan’s child with half a face has risen from the ground Like a child full of admiration With a jar being passed around Sick and tired of the aggravation So you gotta be proud Little little. You’re a little. You’re a little devil We’re gunna move to segregation Before our last goodbye Satan’s child with half a face and we don’t know why I'm full of admiration For all your strength and lack of fear With all your growls and moans and whispers In young Van Demons ear Little little. You’re a little. You’re a little devil He hails from the Franklin River. Amongst the Huon pines Where the hills are steep and the mountains high The mountains high Hear the devils cry The Devils cry I don’t know why Living on a mountain, dying on the mountain side

about

The Dark Clouds Wollongong, Australia

“Part Pit-bull, part Dachshund, The Dark Clouds may be a little long in the tooth but they still pack a pretty mean bite. Listing influences from Midnight Oil & The Dictators to Turbo Negro & Monster Magnet, they describe their sound as somewhere between old school Proto-Punk & Aussie Pub Rock. So, if you like a little mongrel in your rock, these guys are worth checking out.” Jacques Heavy. ... more
