about

This is a remix of then Perth/Melbourne based post-punk band Nervous Trend. I recorded their demo/12" in 2013 and the vocal tracks of Written Record are from that recording session. By now Nervous Trend have completely relocated to Melbourne and they keep going so look out for new releases as they are a pretty good band in my opinion! - And I don't even follow that post-punk hype, which is currently going on. Check out their bandcamp site and listen to the great original track:

lyrics

Written Record

The holy word. The obedient herd.
The debts incurred. Interpretations blurred.
The theatrical absurd. Questions go unheard.
All doubts deferred. False logic reassured.

Mythologise the past and leave out all the facts. The winners write the songs and they decide who was right and who was wrong.

When all that you have left are whispers in the sand and threads of memory long removed from their own lands, who's to say what's true and what that truth might mean? This is no way to live. Content in blind belief, wrapped up in faded dreams. This isn't history. This is fiction bound tightly.

Mythologise the past and leave out all the facts. The winners write the songs and they decide who was right and who was wrong.

When all is said and done, the blood has all been shed. The lines are clearly drawn and the victors are declared. They take control of the story.

The time line's disjointed. Confusion is exploited. The facts are avoided. And they make history.

about

Anti Machine Records image

Anti Machine Records Perth, Australia

Anti Machine Records is a punk and hardcore label from Perth, WA. AMR releases predominantly online and many of the downloads are for free with a donation option. Most bands are either from Berlin / Germany or Perth and I either recorded and/or mixed these releases here on bandcamp or/and I played myself in these bands. So it's all more or less family.

Cheers, Grobi ... more
