BLOATED So High Can’t Feel The End Of It Hold Me Tight Before I Drown In It So High Can’t Feel The End Of It So Fly You Don’t Know Me, To Hell!!! It’s Like This... „See The Sights, They’re All So Pretty But, In Fact, They’re Hot! I Feel The Earth Revolve I’m The Gift Of God“ „Try Your Best, But You Can’t Have Me I’m Miles Away From This Join Another Party In Eternal Bliss“ Well-Nigh I See The End Of It Eye To Eye As If My Senses Flipped So Trite Can Feel The End Of It So Blythe Has Her Own Private Hell, It’s Like This: „See The Sights, They’re All So Pretty But, In Fact, They’re Hot! I Feel The Earth Revolve I’m The Gift Of God“ „Try Your Best, But You Can’t Have Me I’m Miles Away From This Join Another Party In Eternal Bliss“

NO BIG DEAL What I Conceive, Fallacies Ain’t No Big Deal Most People Have An Itch to Please, Appear Ideal What I Portrait, I Guess They Will Not Find Okay I Drink For Two, At Lunch, At Night, Maybe In The Afternoon… Sometimes I Need That Grease, It Makes Me Feel Good, Indulge In Junk, Compulsion Is The Case! Hangovers Make Me Feed Myself With Rubbish, There’s No Excuse And No One Else To Blame What I Reveal, Violence Ain’t No Big Deal Most People Have An Itch To Feel, Alive And Real What I Betray, I Gues You Will Not Find Okay, I’ll Hit Ya If You Break My Stride, Not Only Once But Twice... Sometimes I Need A Rawl, It Makes Me Feel Good A Fist May Fly And Kiss Another Face That Poseur Made Me Do No Other Reason That Big Mouth Mixed With Booze Will Have To Pay! It’s What I Need, Not What You Expect, What Must Be Must Be Without Regrets And Who Are You To Teach Me This Way? So Troll The Streets And Make My Day!

NONSENSE THE COMMON SENSE Say Your Lifetime Can't Be Spent In Glamorous Circumstances (Then), Why You Come Cup In Hand? Say Your Lifetime Can't Be Spent In Hindsight Or Indifference So, Why Save The Best For The End? Nonsense The Common Sense!!! While Me, I Do The Funtimes Walk In The Sunshine, While You Have Been Digging The Dirt For A Long Time Me, I Do The Nightlines, Get Down With The Nice Guys While You Have Been Eager To Earn Quarters And Dimes Say Your Days Seem All Too Bland Fall Prey To Melancholic Trances Tied To The Experienced Lethargic Impotence No More Highlights, Can't Be Meant With Prozac Or Amphetamines Why Plagued With Expedience? Nonsense The Common Sense!!! While Me, I Do The Funtimes Walk In The Sunshine, While You Have Been Digging The Dirt For A Long Time Me, I Do The Nightlines, Get Down With The Nice Guys While You Have Been Eager To Earn Quarters And Dimes 2 x If You're Looking For Company There Is, Why Don't You Move It If The Other Man's Grass Is Greener Why Don't You Mowe It? If You Want To Be My Apogee Why Don't You Show It? And If You Still Don't Know What This Means, You Have To Blow It!

about

"artistocrazy" is the title for a longplayer, which can be grasped only in its entirety, because every song is different to the next. The album describes literally the mental state of mastermind markus scholl, losing the plot in the the sick world of 2019, which he describes as driven by greed, destruction, narcissism, big data, neo feudalism, you name it. The wide range of topics is musically transferred by a likewise broad range of stylistic variations. You'll get the shoegaze-y rendition of "Bloated", next to the electronic dance beat mayhem of "True Believers, next to the art poppy "No Big Deal", next to the even artsier and jazzier piano meets electronica outfit of "Houses & Habitats", the list goes on. So, there is a lot of colors in the palett of the duo of Eric Schemer and Markus Scholl.
