Another World

by The Cathode Ray

/

about

The Cathode Ray return on 6th April, after a three year recording hiatus, with “Another World”, the lead track from their forthcoming third album “Heightened Senses” which is due out in the Autumn.

Lyrically concerning themes of alienation, hopes, fears and doubts, “Another World” is another bold musical statement from The Cathode Ray, evoking nothing less than the glam balladry of Roxy Music or Be-Bop Deluxe, married to subliminal electronica. It sets out the stall for the new album which, as its title suggests, promises to stretch The Cathode Ray template further with forays into previously unchartered musical waters for the band.

It also marks the recording debut of guitarist Phil Biggs with the band, plus production assistance, cover art and video direction from Alex Thoms, the son of lead singer Jeremy Thoms. Steve Fraser (lead guitar), Neil Baldwin (bass) and David Mack (drums) complete the line-up.

lyrics

ANOTHER WORLD

SOMETIMES, IT FEELS LIKE I COULD LOSE MY MIND
OH BUT SOMETIMES, I FEEL LIKE LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
AND THE NEXT TIME,
NO I WON’T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES
OH THE NEXT TIME, I WON’T LET THIS POOR HEART BREAK

SO IN YOU I WILL CONFIDE
IT’S TIME TO SWALLOW MY PRIDE

I’M IN ANOTHER WORLD, JUST LIKE AN OYSTER’S PEARL
MADE FROM A GRAIN OF SAND IN AN ALIEN LAND
I AM (LIVING) IN ANOTHER WORLD

SOME DAY, I’LL FIND THE PATH THAT LIES AHEAD
OH MAYBE SOMEDAY, I WON’T END BEING MISLED
MAYBE THIS TIME, I’LL FIGURE OUT THE HERE AND NOW
OH MAYBE THIS TIME, I’LL GET IT RIGHT IF I’M ALLOWED TO

IS THERE ANYWHERE LEFT TO HIDE?
IT’S TIME TO STEP INSIDE
