Wake
Confined to your words, confined to this sea
Of everlasting, endlessly repeating memories
Confined by the words you once whispered to me
This never to be heard, confronting sea of memories
You said, go out and learn to swim
Lifelines that hold us, forces to disperse
From birth we are separating, destined to diverge
The science of solitude, confined to yourself
Time pushes outward and away from ourselves
You said, go out and learn to swim

Paradigm
You know what you have to say
You know what you have to do
Traces go back this way
As far as you need to know
Remember not to forget
Remember you didn’t choose
Remember you ought to regret
The traces you didn’t lose
You know what you can’t ignore
You’ve seen to it all along
Never confronted before
You’ve been through this all your life
The harder you try, the deeper you fall
Why did you think you could solve this at all?
It’s all in what you breathe
Embedded in your acts
Conscious volition in regrettable ways
Lack of discretion, just a predictable case
Lack of direction but on an undeniable course
Inevitable yet intangible, just as you feared all along
You know when you have to give in
You know what you have to leave out
You know where you have to begin
Just don’t know where to start

Fringe
I slipped into a steamy river
I float on fragments of a dream
Everything is just neatly out of focus
I don’t mind about anything at all
A dream awaits behind a waterfall
A stream of thoughts remind me of a flood
Please keep out, it’s nearly over now
I scream at the top of my lungs, let’s get out

Beautiful Fail
Don’t ask me more than once I won’t answer
Don’t let me take it back
I know atrocities lay ahead
It’s just the beautiful failure of all…
… like a curtain falling
Don’t ask me more than once
It’s the same as a question of integrity
Don’t let go of this moment it’s yours
Goodbye to emotions and your alibi…
… when the curtains fall
Don’t take it back, just leave me running
But take me back forever falling
Memories fade away even when
You don’t expect to remember it leaves a trace
The truth tastes as bitter as ever
Don’t you know what to leave behind…
… as the curtain falls

End Of The Line
One step at a time
Take it slowly but don’t hesitate
As it takes you a little further…
You can’t touch me, you can’t touch me
As it burns at the end of the line
I can’t reach you, I can’t reach you
One more step till it no longer comforts you
I can’t breathe here, it suffocates me
Can you feel it down your spine
One last step beyond your horizon
If you can’t figure I won’t either
Are you there yet?

Two Shades
I said it’s all heart and soul
Your wits don’t move a thing around here
But as she lost her mind – and things got out of sight
There wasn’t a thing to mind
In the candlelight of a burnt out dream
There was a time our souls connected
And as the speech fell still – and the candles died
That was the thing we tried to find
My eyes cannot look up into it
A depth I have always failed to see
Try to just feel it and close my eyes
Like inside a desperate dream
Is it trust we seek - or unsolved history
That fuels the pain of wounds unhealed
When she cried every night I turned away my eyes
Too late to see that I was blind
My eyes cannot look up into it
A depth I have always failed to see
Try to just feel it and close my eyes
Like inside a desperate dream
Time stands still within these walls
Caressed by storms and pouring rains
The haunting ghosts of other souls
Have left me here alone
The whispers from the raging noise
Colourful hues of gray
It all returns as I close my eyes
With the taste of you, a little sweeter

Their debut album, 'Paradigm' was released in 2021. With the permanent addition of Vincent Frijdal and Arco van Dam, Hanlon's Razor raised the bar in recording their second album, 'Stockholm'. ... more
Hanlon's Razor recommends:
A sublime blend of polyrhythms, melody, atmosphere and great riffing!
go to album
The newest addition to an impressive discography. Hologram by Amplifier is a mix between prog and 90s alternative spiced with delay and reverb.
go to album
Innate Passage is equal parts progressive and psychedelic rock. It’s a more subtle step on their ongoing musical journey.

Another GREAT! live album release and one that perhaps offers plenty of variety of the longer time slot and the set list which features a few surprises. Once again Jones is playing on his own and delivers the goods with his truly GREAT! performances and usual humour and interaction with the crowd. His presence alone makes it more warm and inviting and there is plenty here to get your teeth into. Highly recommended...
go to album
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations.
