about

Electro pop track with western shtick and anti-commercialist, anti-consumerist lyrics. This is a very timely choice given the current global economic state. There are many tricky little elements in this work and I think you'll find it fresh and somewhat inspired.

lyrics

When the working day is done
I refuse to belong to anyone.
And at night when I try to sleep
I hear the house of commerce in my dreams...

Somehow, someone, somewhere
owns everything I do.
Somehow, someone, somewhere
owns all of me and owns all of you.

There's no charge,
there's no crime,
but we're all doing time.
To be honest there's not much I can do
but to sing a bad ballad for you.

I could suggest sabotage,
but success might prove a mirage.

'cause Somehow, someone, somewhere
owns everything I do.
Somehow, someone, somewhere
owns all of me and owns all of you.

about

LowHero.DLL is the electro-alt-pop solo project of Jonathan Chalker, based in Florida and distributed by Glim ... more Records.

LowHero.DLL invokes New Wave and Post-Punk influences ranging from The Normal or Blondie to Big Black or PIL. There are doses of 90's styled indie-rock to add an organic twist to the electronic sound scheme, which can swing from dance friendly stompers to ambient interludes. less
