MANY NAMED (The Second Body) ∴ songsigil01 by REVEL∴ROSZ

The first SONGSIGIL in the REVEL ROSZ monthly series that builds to his first fully produced debut album. The songsigil is to be widereleased on bandcamp and all streaming platforms July 2024. It was imperative that the first of the series be revealed today, 7/7/24 due to celestial elections. You can view the videomancy component of the sigil here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0PJ4cnBu5w

 
 

The video was made in The Dimming Room and shot on analog film Hi8 camcorders along with my rusty sony DSLR. The glitch effects are all completely analog as one of the camcorders has a malfunctioning output - but I love the natural analog decay. Utilizing this along with in-camera lo-fi projection mapping is perfectly analogous to the song's production, as everything was performed and recorded somatically - no digital samples, sequencing or digital FX.

Recorded with live drums and live manipulated analog FX, four track & cassette player manipulation, baritone electric guitar, casio circuit bent keyboard, 70's analog rhythm box and the live manipulated Robert Monroe tape samples!

lyrics

Prelude: Robert Monroe on The Out Of Body Experience 1989

I am the ghost that hangs aroundKeter dethroned and spit me outAnd the yell-hounds still tryna sniff me outBut I told you I'd be the ghost that hangs aroundCan't you hear them howlin?

Them yell-houndsWell, they're bound to keep me found

Back from the deadIt ain't like you readI chewed through Sekhmet's spacesWith a severed, bloody head

And now these muckle black tykesDressed in dead's threadsThey done sic'd on meThey won't let me beHoney, time is of the essenceSo lay with me

And I see you weep'Cause I'm not aroundA boy could get used toForlornin', and how!

Never knew how many strangers feltI'm so deeply uncomfortableCome dig me outBefore the hounds will outCome on, dig me out

Can't you hear them howl?Ooh-raA-hoo-ra

Can't you hear meRappin' at your chamber doorYou say "Forever More"No matter howStrong enoughLook who's ghostin; vows now

Look who's ghosting vows nowI am post hasteAnd I'm many namedBut I can't relateTo a dying day

Check my pulse nowCan you replace?No, I had noneStill I was oneOh, I'm comin'Yeah, I'm comin' home

Who's ghostin' who now?I'm many namedForever in one placeI am post hasteI am the mostTo cull awayNow many named
