Troll by Jamie Rhodes
Taken from the forthcoming album "Slow Clap," Troll is a sonically crafted Trojan Horse. An infiltration. A penetration masquerading behind an entrancing and zestful fascia of retrogressive techno-esque pretense.
It feels united, as it writhes away in the slippery scantily-clad sea of intoxicants and coitus, among the hedonistic "fuck you" to the system. A voguish canticle. Yet another spiritual awakening. Part of something greater. Part of something that can't be put in to words. Just felt. The steady thud of the bass drum awakening the inner animal gods and goddesses within us all. We are all part of something...
Something so great that from the troll's ivory tower the only thing he can see is a surrender to meaninglessness.
I am Troll.

Lyrics
If you don't have anything new to say
Then don't say anything
If you don't have anything useful to be
Then don't be anything
(Don't be anything)
Just dance all night
Sleep all day
Regress yourself
Obviate yourself
You are all pride and no dignity
Photograph yourself
Transmogrify yourself
The world gave you praise for your cubicle selfies
Now look what the world's gone and done
We opened our arms to your pusillanimity
Now look what the world's gone and done
The world spread your name and your strident fatuity
Now look what the world's gone and done
We turned a blind eye to the death of integrity
Now look what the world has become
Dance all night and sleep all day
Evade yourself
Exonerate yourself
Dance all night, suffocate away
Preclude yourself
Prostitute yourself
Scroll through your life like a jejune picture book
Don't lose sleep over how to find yourself
They'll show you where to look
In techno remixes of Taylor Swift
My boy will fetch his Playstation, we'll all get pissed
So pass the methamphetamine, I'm harder than life
Why address this mess you're in when you can just get high
Dance all night and sleep all day
Escape yourself
Somnambulate yourself
Dance all night and sleep all day
Misapply yourself
Objectify yourself
