I’m happy to say that the new Philter album is well under way, and it’s entitled “The Blossom Chronicles“.
There is no date yet, but it shouldn’t be too far into the future.

You probably understand the subject matter in which the song is written, so I don’t feel I need to go any deeper into it.

Miriam Vaga is once again featured on vocals, and the artwork is done by Jeff Delgado.

The track will be featured on the new Philter album, set for release sometime in the future.

I hope you like it.

Lyrics:

He stole their lights.
Darkened their innocent eyes.

New hope will fall like grey-like summer rain.
See all the love in all the lights.
The lights and the roses, held up, for you.
For all that’s lost, for all who lost.

When words are poor.
Our hearts give so much more.

Our unison cry, contain a love that won’t die.

He stole their lights.
Darkened their innocent eyes.

Hope can die, as fast as a bullet can fly.

New hope will fall like grey-like summer rain.
See all the love in all the lights.
The lights and the roses, held up, for you.
For all that’s lost, for all who lost.

Philter – The Beautiful Lies

]]> http://thephilterlounge.com/the-beautiful-lies/feed/ 0 Philter’s t-shirt shop http://thephilterlounge.com/philters-t-shirt-shop/ http://thephilterlounge.com/philters-t-shirt-shop/#comments Thu, 07 Apr 2011 21:54:35 +0000 Philter http://thephilterlounge.com/?p=247 The Philter T-shirt shop has been updated, and I thought I might introduce you to the gang!

Floyd:
Since Magnus is focusing on the music part of the “Philter” project, we hired Floyd to be the new Philter t-shirt bunny.  He enjoys hot chicks rubbing his fur, hanging out in suits, has a gold tooth and is highly disciplined in Chuck Norris Karate! Treat him nice and he’ll hang around for a long time, f*** with him and he might just kick your ass….Getting your ass kicked by a bunny? You better play nice! Something else might worth mentioning is that he would easily beat Gheorghe Zamfir in a Pan flute battle!

Jarrod:
Jarrod is one of Floyd’s closest buddies, and absolutely the laziest one. He actually sat through a whole episode of “two and a half men” once, because the remote was on the table, and he couldn’t be bothered to get up, lazy bastard! He’s had a rough couple of years with heavy addictions of various sorts. We thought we would hook him up with a job, hanging out on t-shirts to try to get him back on track. Take good care of him, and keep him away from your medicine cabinet, for both your sakes!

Bear:
Bear is Floyd’s bodyguard. “I thought you just said Floyd was into Chuck Norris Karate? Why would he need a bodyguard?”. Yes he is, but he’s got a bum knee after a freak microwave accident back in ’98, that’s why, and most importantly, having a bodyguard gets you chicks! Bear is the strong silent type, but get him drunk and he’ll tell you some wild stories from back when he was touring as a roadie for Madonna, let me tell you!

Big:
Floyd bought Big back in the day, with money he got from his Great Grandma on his 16th birthday. Big started out as a “Hoover” vacuum cleaner, but has been modded beyond any recognition through the years. Some time during the 80′s he actually used to be Lionel Ritchie’s robotic shoulder pads. The top part of Big is equipped with a Eames Lounge Chair and his “brain” consists of a MOS 6510, 1MHz processor from an old Commodore 64. Why the hell drive a Mercedes, when you can build your own f*** huge robot to take you around town!

They all hang around in vector format to ensure the best possible quality!

Lyrics;

I pulled a gun at the world today.
Lashes joined at the dissaray.
But through the drapes I’m reached, reached by the raisning sun.

I feel the wind on my skin today.
The sun on my face today.
The warmth of a beam embrace, my woken heart.

The first single off the upcoming album is set to be released in December.
We have shot the first part of the music video, and we’ll be shooting the remaining scenes in late November.

Album release date is set to early 2011, somewhat pushed back from the original date given, but it will be worth it, trust me! Get excited, and tell your friends!

Check back soon for more updates!
