Twobitsville by Steve BLaque
Twobitsville originally an album of 8 songs then for an infinitesimal moment 2 EP's of 4 songs is today proudly and officially an Album of 8 songs.
Twobitsville is available for download online... just follow the links, or for those who still got the time to appreciate a bit of detail in their music, you can buy a CD. This album is a look inside the bleak and decaying world of someone livin' on planet earth post 2000 - it could be your reality, but fortunately for us it's the world of Steve BLaque*. Far from being critical, this collection of songs is merely a reflection of the unique and strangely seductive world that is BLaque's.
Twobitsville ain't Hollywood, there's no happy ending, Steve BLaque* offers no answers to any of the riddles or problems posed by today's society in his lyrics; it is 'the facts, nothin' but the facts - as he sees them. In a world of pain and uncertaintly it's good to know that there's someone like BLaque* out there... he's the guy your mother was referring to when she told you to be tnakful for the life you got 'cos "there's always someone worse off than you are". He ain't no hero, just a lost confused and bewildered soul who can shred a room with his guitar and make you question your own self worth.
He is BLaque*.
The album was recorded in two starkly divergent environments: in Melbourne Australia @ Plutonic Lab and the other in Beijing PRC @ Forbidden City Studios and was recorded between December 2013 and August 2014.
Take a listen. It won't change yer life, but it might just make you feel a whole lot better about who you are.
