Medicine 05:45
I feel ill, but not at all too bad I feel good, but not very glad It's a strange constellation of my thoughts Which I keep to myself I drink tea, to relax myself I read books, from my whitest shelf I try my best to stay away from trouble But sometimes I break down And I need my medicine I keep falling down Give me my medicine Somtimes I break down And I need my medicine I keep falling down Give me my medicine I've got hands, with which to feel my way Towards walls, so I don't wander astray It's easier to see, when you're blind And nothing's there I feel distance from you monarchy And you'll know why during its autopsy It's easier to smile, for a braindead man Desperation You'll need my medicine And keep falling down I'll give you my medicine Sometimes I break down and I need my medicine I keep falling down Give me my medicine If you cut an apple in two, it becomes two individual pieces If you cut an apple in two, it becomes two individual pieces If you cut an apple in two, it becomes two individual pieces If you cut an apple in two, it becomes two individual pieces Sometimes I break down And I need my medicine I keep falling down Give me my medicine Desperation You'll need my medicine And keep falling down I'll give you my medicine

Landscapes 06:14
There's a distance Between me and the tracks There's a moment For me to relax There's a swoosh in the air That reminds me of her And as wheels keep hitting metal There's a feeling most obscure It's cold but the snow's not falling The busses stand still and the people get on (There are) Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes The tower is stressing And it eats at my nerves So much sound, so much procrastination Soundwaves and curves The hallways are pumping With humans and minds With Music and sounds, and sounds Of all different kinds There are landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes Landscapes

She Floats 03:38
I can see her everywhere I go Moving to fast I'm moving to slow She is my destiny, I'm told I'll only regret it when I'm old She floats She floats She barely floats She floats Things will always be the same they say I wish I could leave it and go away But feeling addicted you can't run Enjoying yourself you'll stare at the sun She floats She floats She barely floats She floats Lay in the garden, dig in the sand You build mountains using only your hand Regress to your childhood, be in your womb It all started in that tiny room She floats She floats She barely floats She floats

The mountains trembled Shakes again And a beam of light coming from the sun We rest once more before travelling on Only to meet an end at the top Nothing but a journey back down Hahahahahaha Hahahahahaha Hahahahahaha Hahahahahaha Ha ha

about

Recorded and produced entirely by the band itself and helpful friends. The Fake Album was recorded over a series of sessions on a shoestring budget (as per usual), starting in early 2019 and ending in late 2019 with the final recording of Medicine. It was supposed to be released in the summer of 2019, but was subject to several delays.
The album was finally released in what The Fake considers "an unfinished form", however they were "done working on it for now and it might as well be made available so people know what it is we've been up to".

The album is The Fake's first full length album, and the second full length album to be released by The New Thing Records.

The concept of The Fake Album, seems to be a journey of a psychedelic nature (without going into too much detail). Observing and gently criticizing the world, its stresses, society's almost mechanical nature, and reminding us of what beautiful things there are to explore in all the landscapes that surround us. Or something like that. Multiple interpretations are welcomed.
