It’s of a mouse named Leo
And his chivalrous acts so brave:
A Titan-slayer, bold and valiant
Equal to any foe who’d challenge
His God-forged needle blade.
The Thimble Guard at Solhill
In a desperate fight were locked:
The shrew defences overrun
And the captain’s strategies all undone
By Ironfang the fox.
Death stalked the town
Solhill braced for the end
As the fox closed for the kill
And Leo took the field
He’d not back down
For a Thimble Knight’s sworn
Every life to defend!
Here’s health to brave Sir Leo
And his miracle blade so bright:
Where evil prowled and danger beckoned
He’s sent that monster back to heaven
With a needle through the eye!
All aboard the viking space train! A prog-rock-mass-murder-mystery in space and probably the best album from my former band, The Mechanisms. My top track: Thor Kofi Young
“Write The Soil Lighter” is full of beguilingly mysterious folk-adjacent music, shrouded in shadow and atmospherics. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
