Don't take my mind away, it's all I have to pray. Don't take my mind away Don't take my mind away (my mind) (away)
3.
Don't believe, you think you are Make the soil their only hope, the ground will not remain, make the hope inside their heads be toiled and trained again. (I can't see you) Their only hope has gone beneath them, they have nothing left. You can't believe it when you see that you're looking in the eyes of death.

Smoke on the floor it makes me mad, brobdingnagian groups of mist and soil, it makes my mind go crazy makes me feel so insecure (it makes me so upset I want to fucking overthrow you all) Then my mind turns itself into expectation’s cennamorph. Temped all the world to meet my memories of own accord.
6.
Pasted onto the door, waisted like you just did before. Crawling down my face but I don't see.
7.
It starts with a dream, but ends in a fight, it's like you let go of your favourite kite. Beaming a dream, in a different world, a world where you can't be heard. And the world, can be beaten just like this. The world can be beaten again and again and again. I can see you watching out for no reason at all. But then the world turns itself on its own ends, and makes a feeling so obscure.

about

The first studio Double EP by the anonymous and enigmatic musical act The Common Ulterior titled ‘Abstract Ideas’ is certainly a journey through various styles of songwriting that’ll leave your ears buzzing (possibly in pain, in which we shall take no liability). From delicate songs such as “Sense and stolen bicycles” to dark and mysterious songs such as “Electric Copper//The Spirit Shrunken” and a cover of an old Zack Stargaze demo (Which Zack graciously let the band re-record). Described by Sergeant Sagacious himself, “This project comprises of some songs, some of which you might like, some of which you might hate, but of all the things one might say about this double EP, it is certainly, without a doubt, our first.”*

The Common Ulterior have chosen to remain anonymous but will tell you their selected pseudonyms, and what they do.

Sergeant Sagacious - Main vocals/Songwriting/production

Maxwell Hammers - Keyboard/Synth/Piano

Christopher Elephantine - Drums/Percussion

Dominic Feathley - Guitar/Pads/MIDI programming

*Extra note from Sgt. Sagacious: Do us a favour and listen to this on headphones, yeah?
