Nepal Death - Freak Street Blues

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2081175
Dancing madly backwards in time
Down the street of our youth
Remembering too much and too little
Of me and you

Chasing down the shadows in alleys
Where we used to run
Stumbling on the ghosts in the ruins
That we have become

I am dying for you
I am fading with you
I am singing to you
The Freak Street blues

OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana

The dead eyed windows so empty
We’re no longer there
Sometimes I can spot your illusion
South of Durbar Square

The dim lanes in city of temples
Appear in their prime
Your music lingеring like hash-smoke
So frozen in timе
I am dying for you
I am fading with you
I am singing to you
The Freak Street blues

OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana
OM Namah Narayana

Biography

edit bio
Imagine Charles Manson and Anton LaVey teaming up with a band of fake Hare Krishna cult members speeding towards Kathmandu in a run down VW bus along the dusty Hippie Trail in 1966. That may give you the idea what Swedish band Nepal Death are all about.

This is Eastern tinged heavy psychedelic rock at its very best. Angst ridden vocals on top of a compact wall of fuzz guitars, heavy bass and ritualistic drum beats all backed up by hindu chants, religious bells and flutes, freaky backward sounds and eerie India tanpura drones.

Nepal Death´s style draws from seventies heavy rock bands such as Hawkwind and Blue Öyster Cult. Psychedelic rock in the vein of Amon Düül II and Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats are other strong influences along with traditional musical vibes from nations like Turkey, Afghanistan and India. Occult references mixed with Hindu mysticism are also prominent in the band’s lyrics and aesthetics.

The Nepal Death music collective is based in Malmö, Sweden and features veteran musicians from bands such as Agusa, Jämmerdal, Technicolor Poets and Texas Motherfuckers. According to anonymous core cult members the band name is inspired by Danish poet and psychedelic pioneer Eik Skaløe. The former singer of Steppeulvene dreamed and sang about Nepal but went tragically missing in action close to the Nepalese border in 1968. The song Dead in Nepal released on vinyl single in 2020 is all about his demise.

Good news is the full length debut album is emerging like a dark super nova in January 2021 whether the outside world is ready or not. Nepal Death have crafted something of a loose concept album revolving around a fictive journey on the hippie trail to Kathmandu. All songs are blended together by short musical bridges creating the sensation of talking to mystical locals, visiting secret shrines and temples, smoking hash from ornamented water pipes and writing doubtful poems.

The lyrics of the nine album hymns form a forbidden traveller’s guide to Hindu witches, love magic, death rituals, and worship of the almighty Kali Ma. They may appear sinister and serious but in the next moment they are sparkled with twisted dark humour.

The psychedelic front cover depicts a scene taken from a Himalayan Chöd ritual and has been created by artist Toby Jörgensen of Studio Dzyan (the art collective responsible for the groundbreaking artwork for both Mercyful Fate and King Diamond back in the eighties).

The album is released by Swedish psych/progressive label Kommun2 and features guest appearances from members of bands such as Agusa, Coph Nia, Yuri Gagarin and Rymdstyrelsen.

This one band is ready to go and meet the universe on stages everywhere! Please step right up and get ready to leave in a haze of smoke and steam on a trip towards a glorious end in Kathmandu, Nepal. Namaste!
