William Bosch No mystery here, this is a great album. It's a bit of a turn, a bit less synthy, but a great progression. Turn this album up! If you are not familiar with his other releases go discover more great music. I don't think I've come across a bad Glass Apple Bonzai track. Mr. Belasco has a great voice!

tbootsc The sound of 1982 in 2024! A perfect album by an artist who understands the art of restraint and giving each instrument space. Hooks, rhythms, melodies - all perfectly done.

Mysteries 04:55
As we're standing on the edge of something new The message comes from afar The horizon of an age comes into view A lesson of who we are In the pages of a book designed by man The answer comes from within But deciding on the fate of everyone Is nothing short of a sin Ooh whoa oh All the mysteries will unfold Ooh whoa oh All the tragedies and memories that we know The TV divinities tell lies About the eternity of life As we're staring at the face of someone new With eyes as black as the night Keeping all the things we've come to save for you somewhere In denial of a future way of life We've hidden deep down inside All the answers to the questions of the youth Will tell us if we'll survive Ooh whoa oh All the mysteries will unfold Ooh whoa oh All the tragedies and memories that we know The TV divinities tell lies About the eternity of life As we're standing at the edge of what we knew A wisdom fell from the stars And the vision of an age comes into view We still don't know who we are But the pages of a book designed by man Are written words from the heart And deciding on the fate of everyone Will only keep us apart Ooh whoa oh All the mysteries will unfold Ooh whoa oh All the tragedies and memories that we know The TV divinities tell lies About the eternity of life Whoa ho All the mysteries of the world Ooh whoa oh All the tragedies of the world Ooh whoa oh All the mysteries of the world Ooh whoa oh All the mysteries will unfold

A broken heart with good intentions Doesn't need your advice Because it feels so depressed In the dull and lonely light A withered heart too frail to mention Wanders all through the night It doesn't feel so unreal Underneath the sodium lights This temperamental mind In silence will begin to wonder Why everyone is so unkind all the time Stand up straight, take off your mask of denial Let's step outside and take a break for a while You have a smoke or tell a joke with a smile Then call your friends and tell them Everything will be fine A bitter heart with cruel intentions In a shroud of denial And broken dreams that may seem Have been around for a while This foolish heart will fail to mention What it needs from the start To keep it safe so it won't break And turn the light into dark This existential mind In defiance will begin to wonder Why everyone is so fucking sad all the time Stand up straight, take off your mask of denial Let's step outside and take a break for a while You have a smoke or tell a joke with a smile Then call your friends and tell them Everything will be fine Stand up straight, take off your mask of denial Let's step outside and take a break for a while You light a smoke and tell a joke with a smile Then call your friends and them them You'll stick around for a while Then call your friends and tell them You'll be with them in a while Then call your friends and tell them Everything will be fine

Upstairs 04:22
In the dark there hides a mystery I cannot see There's something crawling up the side of me Now creeping up the stairs is agony As I can feel a pair of eyes are staring back at me And it's too late to hide the fear inside The shadows there are calling me to come upstairs Into the attic The place where I will die There's a voice I hear inside of me It says “I could” But I don't think, I don't think I should It says that I could take a chance and see It summons me with visions of my fantasies And it's too late to hide the fear inside The shadows there are calling me to come upstairs “It does no good to cry and now you die” The shadows there are calling me to come upstairs Into the attic Up there in the dark... Now there's a jaded heart, a solemn start And a thousand ways to fall Never mind what I can't resolve, I'll figure it out And in the dark I'm torn apart My heart is violence and greed And now the shadows are surrounding me And it's too late to hide the fear inside The shadows there are calling me to come upstairs “It does no good to cry and now you die” The shadows there are calling me to come upstairs

Mistaking the feelings for something that's right In the light of the fire below As you gather the feelings that you know can't be true Yet they shine with an afterglow As the stars fill an empty When the stars fill the empty sky As the stars fill an empty sky For you and I And we leave from the entrance Then we go up the hill Now you're turning to face me and the night is so still And you say “One chance to write our fiction.” A ray of light from the morning star Of a distance night, we'll be alright Chasing lust with an empty eye When the stars fill an empty As the stars fill an empty sky As the stars fill an empty sky

about

Distortion Productions is proud to announce the new album from Glass Apple Bonzai. Brother Bones is the 5th full length and first for Distortion. Frontman Daniel Belasco says:“Brother Bones is, quite honestly, the most personal album Glass Apple Bonzai has ever released. Acting not only as a vehicle for a noted change in direction musically but serving as a work of catharsis while dealing with the passing of my oldest brother in 2021, to whom the album is dedicated. I am proud of all that Brother Bones is and happy to share it with existing fans and new listeners around the world.”
