Monkey Minds In The Devil’s Time is an album saturated with politics. With a title referring to the Buddhist term for an easily distracted brain, the album features 20 songs: 9 recorded in London with producer Dan Carey and 11 short linking pieces self-produced in Mason’s Fife studio. Monkey Minds In the Devil’s Time is an album that has been shaped by the current global political climate and the lack of dissenting voices in music and popular culture in general. The righteous, undaunted anger at the heart of the album has helped to create Mason’s best record to date.
Won’t you let me in your heart?
Are you in here on your own?
What can we do just the two?
Something here from us to you.
We don’t like the way you live
Then you fall and out to give
All that beauty that you stole
I know how we find your soul.
Fire!
Hands up! Fire!
Hands up! Fire!
I wouldn’t go from here, it’s clear!
Fire!
I wouldn’t go from here, it’s clear!
Fire!
I wouldn’t go from here, it’s clear!
Sticking in the fire!
Is this your first day the..
How can you walk when I’m with..
So much blood and foreign line
We scrub the state upon your hand.
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Sticking in the fire!
Fire!
Fire!
Sticking in the fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Fire!
I wouldn’t go from here, it’s clear!
Fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
Sticking in the fire!
Where do we go from here? It’s clear!
We’re sticking in the fire.
