Frank’s Enemy – @anonymous (download at area1234)

Julio Rey — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 03:58:50 +0000

I guess now’s as good a time as any for me to tell you that I have long-term plans to release a full-length Frank’s Enemy project. Frank’s Enemy’s been putting stuff out here and there sporadically since 2002, and all of it will be included in the full-length (with some additional work on the tracks). But again, this is long-term. I’ve also made some long-term plans involving a new Lead EP with Nina and Rob. In my life, the only short-term plans I have involve work and parenting and husbandry.

But I digress. Here’s a little thrasher I slapped together in the ridiculously short time of two or three weeks. I had shared the lyrics here when I wrote them a couple of months ago. Just some ruminations on the infamous hacktivist group that’s been getting into the hair of giant corporations such as the Church of Scientology and Gene Simmons and some government intel conglomerate. They’ve really become a 21st-century version of the Vikings or the Mongols.

Last verse is food for thought, imagining some cyber-Armageddon pitting Anonymous against Muslim radicals.

The download is here, if you have the guts to register. I will not forget…..

Lyric: Joe’s still dead and London’s still burning

(expired by unfolding events, kind of a stream of unconsciousness)

Rock rock rock rock
Block block block block
Raining from the sky
See the fire fly
Nothing left to try
Hooks and chants are dry
Wonder why

Go go go go
No no no no
It must be mine
The roses and the wine
If greed is so divine
What’s the use of time
Your dime

Lyric: Anonymous

Just finished stringing these words together. My take on the recent anonymous cyber attacks. Hope this doesn’t rile them up.

Oh, and this looks line another one for Frank’s Enemy, which I have been concocting some plans for as of late.

August 9: added a new verse!

Anonymous

Oh god i pray
Keep anonymous from me today
Keep them away
Watch over all i do and say

Big brother is another
Unconscientious conscience
Philosophy amalgalm
Flash lynch mob justice

Oh God i pray
Keep me anonymous today
Keep me away
What do i do or say

The battlements of power
Await the great solar flare
Signal fires and mirrors
And Morse the only code there

Anonymous drew Mohammed
And used it for a mask
Flat screens rolled like heads
Plasma ebbed from cracks

Lyric: Endtime

If this isn’t material for another 30-second Frank’s Enemy tune, I don’t know what is. Christian Libertarian Eschatology. Maybe I’ll record this next….

ENDTIME

We need a king
We need a man
We need a path
We need a plan

Someday this will be the end of us
No one knows the time but we’re getting in our practice
God appointed kings to rise and fall
Now He’s appointed us to elect the sons of Saul

Julio Rey – Bottom Line / The Soldier (Live – Loogie Soup & Visitors “covers”)

Julio Rey — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 04:27:04 +0000

The first song was first successful songwriting attempt to marry el rock punk with los lyrics Christian, back in the spring of 1980 as riots erupted in my homietown and we were preparing to get invaded by a bunch of Cubans in boats. The second song was written about a year later when I had a better idea of what to do. I heard the melody in my head Paul McCartney style as I was attempting to wake up to go wherever I was ‘spected ’round them times. That song made it into the live set of my first band the Visitors and both songs were recorded by Loogie Soup on their lone castanet release in those wild days of ’96. Recorded live at the International Church of South Florida by David Yuen on May 3, 2009.

SUBMARINE: new Frank’s Enemy track in Area1234

Julio Rey — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 02:53:15 +0000

The old-school hardcore cover of the Porno Para Ricardo tune that I’ve been going at for a couple of months on and off. Download here.

It’s about escaping from Cuba in a homemade sub. Lyrics were originally in Spanish. Here’s my translation:

Time to go

As soon as I finish up my submarine
And everyone that wants to go can come with me
Crazy old mother crazy old mother crazy old
Time to go time to go

The Coast Guard’s never going to catch me underwater
Gliding easy with the fishes and the lobsters
Crazy old mother crazy old mother crazy old
Time to go on submarine

Never going to take the sub up to the surface
Or else the Griffin’s going to chase us down and sink us
Crazy old mother crazy old mother crazy old
Time to go on submarine

And if the trip turns out to be short and efficient
I’ll go back and rescue more of my fellow citizens
Crazy old mother crazy old mother crazy old
Time to go on submarine
