about

Two other standout tracks perhaps lie at the heart of Unravelling: namely the noir soul of Stumbling and the creepy psych-pop of the hypnotic title track. “Unravelling and Stumbling are for me perhaps the key songs of the album,” says Nick. “Fear of nights, fear at night, anxiety and the feeling of everything falling apart when forced onto one’s own resources. General disintegration when normal patterns are taken away.

lyrics

It's totally dark machine is humming
A dog is barking and the pipes are rumbling
I am listening what am I what am I missing
I can't move I don't know what to do
This is thee way that the night falls into another day
So slow out of disarray
I am fumbling trying to find the key on the shelf
I am mumbling mumbling to myself
There's a lock on the door that I can't find
A clock is ticking in the hall I don't pay it no mind
I'm trying to find the light at the end of the tunnel
And I stumble yes I stumble
Nobody safe this time of night say goodbye no one answer
Listen to the horizon of my mind tree against the sky
Sleep of knowing wind blowing branches are dancing
And I'm praying to whom it may concern
Nowhere to turn night or day
Tomorrow is no more I'm trying to find the gift of sight
Nothing nothing no light at all
Where are you going someone say it's in my mind
Get down on your knees and pray to whom it may concern
What I've learned is there's nowhere to turn
This is only what I expected so lonely disconnected
Lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely disconnected
Now I'm stumbling stumbling
That's all I can do just trying to make my
Make my way back to you and I'm stumbling

about

Channel D London, UK

Channel D is writer-singer, visual artist and film-maker Nick de Grunwald, whose debut 2013 album Mosaic Of Disarray was described by Q magazine as offering “worldly lyrics, no little panache and a gritty edge” and by Uncut as “dark baritone story-telling”. Unravelling is a giant step forwards, being less a collection of songs and more a cohesive album-length statement. ... more
