  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The Breeding Ground Of Vile is a double album of protest songs and songs to make people think in a world where thought seems to have become an outdated concept. Comprising 24 tracks over two volumes, the album comments on injustice, political incompetence, and senseless conflict, but also carries the powerful message that people still have the power.

    All songs were written by me, but huge thanks are extended to the other musicians on the album for their innovative and intuitive contributions: Kieran Heaney, Emma Perry, Kate Ferris, Matt Steady, Duncan Reed, Kristen (Hatt) Lewis and Matthew Lewis of the Lewinskies, Peter Robinson, and last but by no means least, the man who makes it all happen and our very good friend HeyGamal.

    The album is presented in a cardboard sleeve with my initial design concept being professionalised by the fabulous team at ThinkCr8, Leigh, Greater Manchester. Thanks also to the super talented Frank Roper Photography for the band images.

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Breeding Ground Of Vile - Double Album via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

WHERE THE WORLD IS

I just wonder where the world is
As we go about their lives
And I wonder where the world is
Through the fear in their eyes
I wonder where the world is
As their homes come crashing down
And I wonder where the world is
Above or underground

And I look through the eyes of the children
And all I see is hope
Hope from the innocence of a new life
But a life that is struggling to cope

Chorus

And I look through the eyes of the mothers
And the hunger in their children’s eyes
Battling through the day
In the hope of some respite

Chorus

And I look of the plight of the fathers
Who fight the senseless wars
Senses frayed and shattered
If they ever make it home of course

Chorus
