A Becker I love the range of this album. From harsh and aggresive punk-tinged, to QOTSA flavored stoner rock and beyond to more spaced out psych, this album is anything but monotone! Honorable mention to Who Do I Kill for best track, although it's nothing like Neb Cruiser at all! Favorite track: Neb Cruiser.

The Real Nick House Hudu Akil gets what 99% of stoner bands miss--it's not enough to have good riffs. You have to arrange them into good songs, and Hudu Akil has good song after good song on this album. Favorite track: Who Do I Kill.

Intro 01:52
2.
Bounce back from the depths of hell Glad we lived to tell the tale Burned clean like a newborn, baby Burned again, no we won't be born again Oh, sweet revenge! Turned on to deadly thrills Fight fire with fire Eye for an eye Who do I kill Bite back at the hand of doom Overreaching, all consuming Last call, its a free-for-all Anyway, it's a ticking timebomb Oh, sweet revenge! Turned on to deadly thrills Fight fire with fire Eye for an eye Who do I kill Who do I kill, who do I kill Eye for an eye, who do I kill Who do I kill, who do I kill Eye for an eye, who do I kill

Hot Pursuit 02:22
Cross along the highway A ghost on the road Saw it clear as daylight Caught up in my headlights Driving through the desert Headed straight into the sun And the devil's on the radio What do ya know? It's a good day to die, but I'm still alive And as above, I know it might as well be down below El Diablo, gonna wake up with tomorrow Brace yourself, because the end is near And the coast is almost clear I'm in the getaway car, baby It's starting to smell like a hearst Headed for the border Right around the corner Running like hell cause they're on my trail They wanna put me in a ditch not a prison cell They gonna bite my dust in the twilight dusk If I'm not six feet deep when the sun goes down El Diablo, gonna wake up with tomorrow Brace yourself, because the end is near And the coast is almost clear Got a code 211, suspect on the loose Racing down the PH1, engaged in hot purusit Try and catch me!

Neb Cruiser 03:30
Reach for the sky, but look out below What the future holds, I don't know - let's go! Out on the highway, and into the void They'll be like, "last time I saw you You were just knee-high to an asteroid." Dead or alive, it's been a long time coming Toward end of days, I just keep on running Until the sun sets on me Nebula Cruiser, steel horse and black boots And I'm drifting, drifting, drifting Drifting away From ever direction the planets collide To no particular destination upon the dust we ride Out on the highway, into the abyss Leaving on a jet plane, baby Don't know if I'll be missed Dead or alive, it's been a long time coming Toward end of days, I just keep on running Until the sun sets on me Nebula Cruiser, steel horse and black boots And I'm drifting, drifting, drifting Drifting away

Lights out Staring straight into the sun My mind, it fries Hydrogen, Helium I seen it with my own two eyes Beating down the streets Humming from the east Beaming right in through your curtains Shedding light on coiled serpants I wouldn't look down You're falling into ashes of yourself right now You're blowing in the wind Causing fires downtown All tried to stomp you out But man, you might be too hot to touch And you can hear em all singing "Don't look now, but you're on fire" I regard you hiding in the dark Humbling and meek I am the light I am the spark If it is fire that you seek As it smoulders over shoulders Burns you in the first degree Shedding light on all your fortune As it kindles your disease Lights out I buried you in ashes Lights out I got tonfeel you burn Lights out Swept up in all your ashes Lights out And put you in the urn
7.
Dawn 06:54
Now, we've been casting stones since the first rays of the new sun Howling at the moon like a dog when the day is done Theres still plenty more time We still got a hell of a long way to go from here If you love me like you say you do Then let me go If you hate me like you ought to do Just let me know If you wanna kill me like you should I know if I was you, I would So come on- put the bullet in Kill me. We've still got a hell of a long way to go Before we're gone, in the temple of the dawn Alright, show me the door Sun up, sun down, chasong you all over town Kinda makes me feel like a damned ol fool Early morn, til late at night Wondering if you're alright Just like a goddamn fool Why do you keep me waiting, baby Lie to me girl, waste all of my time When you treat me this way it drives me insane Girl, won't you make up your mind Woman so weary, sweet cause of pain You make love, you break love It's all the same You know it, dont you?
8.
Keepsakes 04:38
Ever fleeting inspiration How I long to keep you there Insignificant sensation Reach for a handful not to find you there Have I lost all my keepsakes again? I've been lost too long to say, my friend Spoiled by your adulation Havoc seeded in my prayer Toil through your constellation Sift through your heavens Not to find you there Have I lost all my keepsakes again I've been lost too long to say, my friend Holy water drowning me Holy water running all over me Further behind, the less that I can see Fuck with my mind, fulfill the prophecy Further behind, the less that I can see Fuck with my mind, fulfill the prophecy Have I lost all my keepsakes again I've been lost too long to say my friend
9.
Into the void, an ode to joy I've been created and destroyed Burned on the wing of the firefly Ashes to ashes an eye for an eye I splinter into mandala And stagger into the void Chasing the tail of the asteroid I've been created and destroyed Into the void, an ode to joy I've been created and destroyed Burned on the wing of the firefly Ashes to ashes an eye for an eye I splinter into mandala Ashes to ashes an eye for an eye Ashes to ashes an eye for an eye Leaves the whole world blind So push me to the limit cause I ain't afraid to die I will take these daggers from my back and leave the whole world blind Should I let it all out Would I get it back then Could I live with myself Be the ultimate sin From the pit of my heart To the tip of my tongue Til my last drop of blood I'll be loving you Oh, and it feels good Oh, it feels so good Just to be here With you, my friend
