about

A first song from the forthcoming album "More? Why Not!" - An Anagramatical Exorcism Of The 60s - out June 2017 through BB*ISLAND

See the video: vimeo.com/199528717

Naturally, a band called TH€ $OUND OF MON€¥ must always be about exchange. In the case of our forthcoming album “More? Why Not!”, the emphasis is on exchange of letters - the word game known as Anagram. We were crushing the titles of our favourite 60s records into letters – and re-arranging those letters into 12 brandnew titles for songs. Now here’s a first glimpse: “Just Chirp On, Ego” The anagram was made from the “Housing Project”, the 1968 album of the late great John Hartford – more of which will be told at another occasion.

If you're on Spotify, here's a mixtape by TH€ $OUND OF MON€¥: smarturl.it/TSOM68

lyrics

:::Just Chirp On, Ego:::

Parties
Social Innings
No ends
No beginnings
Glasses
Never empty of wine

Music
Lively chatter
Mind states
Never matter
Voices
Silky fabrics
Shining and entwined

Just chirp on, Ego
You’re higher than me, go
And fly up the mountain
And wait like Noah in his ark

Just chirp on, Ego
I’ll wait here and listen
For your echo
Right here in the dark
