about

Recorded in 2002. This was the very first NEMO release.
The track was written after the first NEMO album, but the label, Goanna Music insisted on releasing it before the album. The track was lost between the Electroclash movement and the new 'Brit' indie scene. It featured on the Angular Records Compilation 1 along with Art Brut and Bloc Party. Unfortunately the label ran out of money and guitarist Simon Davies left the band. The subsequent album '5 Min Heroes' was not released until 2008. However Nemo mark two was already underway...

lyrics

Crass, sound abasement.
Zone scented crown
Cold breath untainted
Chrome hits the town

Apex of boredom, under our nails
We're not allowed to be certain,
We're not allowed to be safe

Piccadilly in Sepia
We are naked on the underground
Forming colours in sepia
There are trillions, there are trillions

Crushed by the borders
Stretched to the bone
We are all lost in the language
We are all lost in homes


Piccadilly in Sepia
We are naked on the underground
Forming colours in sepia
There are trillions, there are trillions

Sometimes the cold will slip right through
Sometimes there are trillions, there are trillions
