Closer To Royal

Flickering on the switch of the shallow things you’ve done and tell
As for me I’m dancing down the heavens
Sickening on the thought I could lend my womb, soul and voice to sell
With you I’m closer in being royal

Til death, til hell
To breaking bones instead
Til death, til hell
To break it down you’re good

How come you never taste it for real?
You gotta prove while you’re on it
Get on it and never let yourself
(Get it on now, get it on now)
How come you never give in to touch?
You gotta grab and abuse it
Closer to royal
Your pretensions now are done

Snickering on the face of the meltdown trash you’ve done and tell
As for me I’m chanting along the battle-cry
I could send my love, my bow, my noise, to excel
With you I’m closer in being royal

Til death, til hell
To breaking bones instead
Til death, til hell
To break it down you’re good

How come you never taste it for real?
You gotta prove while you’re on it
Get on it and never let yourself
(Get it on now, get it on now)
How come you never give in to touch?
You gotta grab and abuse it
Closer to royal
Your pretensions now are done

Diss Track

Inhale your ego there it comes hazard
With me you’ll lose your mind
Better get hushed, I’m a bit too harsh
Heard you were let down

If you gotta hate it
If you wanna hurt me I’ll watch
Get away
If you wanna tear me apart
Hate me
There’s an exercise, it starts
Now, promise you it ain’t that hard

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
I dare you don’t think of me, dear
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
You can’t, no

Sense your hollow, I’m an infected blister
Can’t drain me from your life
Straitjacketed hull, my gift from the heart
Perhaps you’ll get it now

If you gotta hate it
If you wanna hurt me I’ll watch
Get away
If you wanna tear me apart
Hate me
There’s an exercise, it starts
Now, promise you it ain’t that hard

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
I dare you don’t think of me, dear
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
You can’t, no

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
I dare you don’t think of me, dear
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Save your soul

Close your eyes like I said
Close your eyes why so sad?
Close your eyes like I said
Close your eyes…

Close your eyes, close your eyes try not to think of me
And realize, realize how I couldn’t care less

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
I dare you don’t think of me, dear
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
You can’t, no

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
I dare you don’t think of me, dear
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Save your soul

Tattoo You

This bittersweet taste of your last kiss
Scars of roses in your skin

A change of pace makes you come and go
Riding on butterflies wings

And tonight I will tattoo you
With an x in your heart to hurt it
I guess this is something to prove
Forever's next to me and you

I keep away to make you mine
For this love I'll tattoo you

This tragedy such of blame and tears
I’ve been needled all the way

The pain is near scratchin' away the fear
Painting out our hearts of gray

And tonight I will tattoo you
With an x in your heart to hurt it
I guess this is something to prove
Forever's next to me and you
I keep away to make you mine
For this love I'll tattoo you

Cry
Most you can cry
I’ll be with you until the end
We're bound to fall
We’re getting down
Way to mark it 'til the end

And tonight I will tattoo you
With an x in your heart to hurt it
I guess this is something to prove
Forever's next to me and you
I keep away to make you mine
For this love I'll tattoo you

Tonight I’ll tattoo you

Breakout To Sleaze

Borderline the mess is arranged
There is a plan to make you outta control
Holding ground inflicts some derange
Seldom seen man raving on the unknown

Howling south we dash to the land
Where anthems bent and surely overflow
Straighten up we won’t bow down
Craving the scent of our own blood

Doing time targeted by blind chaser
Fluids combined and a wish worn crude
Doing time locked in under your razor
Realized really need you nude

Derelict but free we go

Mash rebellion with slying up
Just lose this
So what?
Don’t wanna give it up
Bid my soul to here and now and I’m free

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Burning fine three fires at chance
The scarab plans to make you outta control
Spreading vows a rose’s been changed
Heard in the den wing-beat by def unsure

Doing time targeted by blind chaser
Fluids combined and a wish worn crude
Doing time locked in under your razor
Realized really need you nude

Derelict but free we go

Mash rebellion with slying up
Just lose this
So what?
Don’t wanna give it up
Bid my soul to here and now and I’m free

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Mash rebellion with slying up
Just lose this
So what?
Don’t wanna give it up
Bid my soul to here and now and I’m free

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em
Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em
Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em
Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Mash rebellion with slying up
Just lose this
So what?
Don’t wanna give it up
Bid my soul to here and now and I’m free

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Mash rebellion with slying up
Just lose this
So what?
Don’t wanna give it up
Bid my soul to here and now and I’m free

Bre-bre-bre bre-break out to sleaze 'em

Redshifted

Tonight should mend some broken ties
Of wasted years for you and I
We took some roads not far enough
And now you’re back and trouble’s on

Once you said go on the flow
But now we got teary eyes

Wrong as long you thought you stole my love
Now we’re lost and fucked up
Some things can’t be undone

Don’t stay, I don’t wanna be so close to you
Baby, there is nothing we can do
We were redshifted from the start

It’s plain and clear, loving in disguise
Lasted to fade, hung out to dry
From all to null, diamond into coal
And now you’re back and trouble’s on

Once you said go on the flow
But now we got teary eyes

Wrong as long you thought you stole my love
Now we’re lost and fucked up
Some things can’t be undone

Don’t stay, I don’t wanna be so close to you
Baby, there is nothing we can do
We were redshifted from the start

Wrong as long you thought you stole my love
Now we’re lost and fucked up
Some things can’t be undone

Don’t stay, I don’t wanna be so close to you
Baby, there is nothing we can do
We were redshifted from the start

All About That Night

There we were in the pale moonlight
Seemed the entire
Filling on the clause

Intricate mass of skin and sweat
Then the killing
Featuring the odds

There we were with the stars aligned
Cease the fire
For this dying love

And we’re pretty for now
And pretty we are for now
(If they get here)
We’re pretty right now
Framed naked in black and white

And so it was gone
And we’re forsaken on the bad news
You thought it was right
You let it all, I wanted it all
But it was all about that night

There we were unhidden to fine
Petrified us
Trigger pulled for God

Yin-yang soaked in blood red
The deceasing
Drowned in sick applause

There we were lost at eye on eye
Made forever
Sculpted with no flaws

And we’re pretty for now
And pretty we are for now
(If they get here)
We’re pretty right now
Framed naked black and white

And so it was gone
And we’re forsaken on the bad news
You thought it was right
You let it all, I wanted it all
But it was all about that night

Love and peace (have) been fighting for so long
At rights and wrongs they aim
When we’ll finally see evil reversed
And true to our hearts free to live?
Yeaaaah

And so it was gone
And we’re forsaken on the bad news
You thought it was right
You let it all, I wanted it all
But it was all about that night

But it was all about that night
It was all about that night
It was all about that night
All about that night

Into The Mud

He showed a clown on his arm to prove
His chest raw flesh and a putrid juice
Shot many times but he’s bulletproof, he’s bulletproof

So
No turning back when violated from birth
Burn
Deals applejacks and what else sells with no merch
Un-un-uncountless screams he put to silence
Nobody cares ’til ravaged

(I wish you well)
Children are fed with slurry
(First wish you hell)
Their future’s blurry

Been sucked out into the mud
Carrying the ice on the way back home
Been sucked out into the mud
Froze on the flood
Heart replaced by gun

You know the man’s damned to be cruel
His murderous eyes still shines so pure
"What’s your star sign?" and it fades to blue, it fades to blue

So…
No turning back when violated from birth
Burn
Deals applejacks and what else sells with no merch
Un-un-uncountless screams he put to silence
Nobody cares ’til ravaged

(I wish you well)
Children are fed with slurry
(First wish you hell)
Their future’s blurry

Been sucked out into the mud
Carrying the ice on the way back home
Been sucked out into the mud
Froze on the flood
Heart replaced by gun

World wishes you well
But first I wish you hell
Sucked out into mud
Been frozen on the flood
Out into mud
Been frozen on the flood

Been sucked out into the mud
Carrying the ice on the way back home
Been sucked out into the mud
Froze on the flood
Heart replaced by gun

2nd Home 24/7

Oh man...
You probably lost count of how many times you’ve lost your dignitiy on these cigarette buds floor...
But who really gives a fucking damn?
We’re all lost kids
Hiding on the same spot
No seeking needed
All rebels with no cause
Except not giving a rat’s pinky hole for you small town elitism shenanigans
Just take me drunk... Cause I’m home

Failing to decide that better path in life
Doc, lawyer, engineer and what not
No pat on the back
But we sure feel tall
While alive we’re venturing on

Failing to decide that better path in life
Doc, lawyer, engineer and what not
No pat on the back
But we sure feel tall
While alive we’re venturing on

Ooooh
Jp ‘s on the rise
Ooooh
You are not allowed

2Nd home 24/7
Where we make noise
Looks broken
But we don’t wanna fix it
‘Til the sunlight

Thirst is on your side so
You head to where you find
Movie stars as waiters and graffiti wars
We got your back
And we sure ain’t small
Behind bars the booze goes on

Ooooh
Jp ‘s on the rise
Ooooh
You are not allowed

2Nd home 24/7
Where we make noise
Looks broken
But we don’t wanna fix it
‘Til the sunlight

2Nd home 24/7
Where we make noise
Looks broken
But we don’t wanna fix it
‘Til the sunlight yeah...

Better do what you do ‘til you can’t do it
Dirty and damned we don’t care at all
Damaged are their hearts and we won’t lose it
Better lose it
Better lose it

2Nd home 24/7
Where we make noise
Looks broken
But we don’t wanna fix it
‘Til the sunlight yeah...

2Nd home 24/7
Where we make noise
Looks broken
But we don’t wanna fix it
‘Til the sunlight yeah...

The Wave

Random plot at familiar setting
Usual tittle-tattle reference
Brain tells you get a grip
Not the language they speak

Still unborn the one to bear the truth
When it lapdances under your nose
Why to come clean when there’s an
Already safe dirty drawer?

We should’ve continued guessing
What the other
Was thinking

But you need me now
And will need again
Told you before
Written in the sand

Partners of crime
We’re mischief, same face
The wave may come
We’ll just embrace

Honeyscoop hazy eyes on smoke
Tongue brake apllied is past tense
Veins pumping to predict
The gates are opened for this trip

I’m the one that can bear the truth
Dancing under your nose
Why not to come clean when I am
Your safe dirty drawer?

There;s no continuing guessing
What the other
Is thinking

But you need me now
And will need again
Told you before
Written in the sand

Partners of crime
We’re mischief, same face
The wave may come
We’ll just embrace

There;s no continuing guessing
There;s no continuing guessing

But you need me now
And will need again
Told you before
Written in the sand

Partners of crime
We’re mischief, same face
The wave may come
We’ll just embrace

But you need me now
And will need again
Told you before
Written in the sand

Partners of crime
We’re mischief, same face
The wave may come
We’ll just embrace

Resenha.

Nem só de Suécia vive o Hard Rock de qualidade na atualidade, mas também de sangue brasileiro, mais precisamente, do Maranhão. Oriunda da capital São Luís, a banda Röyal Dögs, formada em 2013, segue bem o padrão glamouroso das novas safras escandinavas, com identidade construída a partir de versos maliciosos, amplificados pela picardia brasileira, instrumental sinuoso, de riffs precisos, linhas vocais empolgantes, refrão grudento e dois pés atolados na música pop. “Tattoo You” (2016) é o segundo álbum da banda, primeiro a sair via Monstro Discos, cujas novidades já aparecem na formação diferente da que registrou o primeiro trabalho, “On Spree of a Gang”.

Pensando no álbum “Tattoo You” como um todo, executaram perfeitamente sua junção de elementos sagrados do hard rock e sleaze/glam com melodias descaradamente pop, extrapolando um pouco suas fronteiras musicais, tornando o resultado final diferenciado dentro do amálgama de malícia roqueira (de nomes como Aerosmith, Guns N’ Roses e Motley Crue), despojamento pop/punk e pitadas de elementos eletrônicos.

A pegada eletro-pop, mezzo Depeche Mode mezzo New Order, da abertura “Violet Flame”, pode assustar quem se aventurar na audição, mas as guitarras que roncam já na faixa seguinte, “Closer To Royal”, são certeiras e já nessa altura, se você aprecia bandas como Halestorm e The Pretty Reckless, além das canônicas supracitadas, a sedução será irreversível! Riffão, atitude e refrão grudento como todo fã de Hard Rock aprecia!

No decorrer do trabalho, a banda se mostra altamente versátil dentro de sua proposta, além de imprimir a dose certa de adrenalina, sustentadas pelas ótimas e bem alocadas linhas de guitarra. E neste momento, cabe um destaque especial ao guitarrista Felipe Hyily, que investe em abordagens multifacetadas e cheias de referências, esbanjando bom gosto e sendo o fulcro desta balança musical que oscila entre o pop atual e o hard rock oitentista. Palmas também para as linhas vocais de Laila Razzo que, aos meus ouvidos, soaram como um amálgama da intransigência vocal de Juliette Lewis com a ousadia adocicada de Lady Gaga.

Dentre as faixas seguintes, “Distract”, “Redshifted”, “Break Out To Sleaze Em”, “Into The Mud” e “2ND Home 24/7” são os maiores destaques, com pegada moderna e energética e não caindo na armadilha de passar do ponto da pegada pop como acontece em alguns momentos. Justiça seja feita, mesmo nos momentos em que esse abuso é mais flagrante (como nas faixas “All About That Night” [título que remete a um dos clássicos do H.E.A.T.]), “Tattoo You” e “The Wave”, esse fato não compromete o resultado final e, no fechamento da conta, uma lapidada maior na proposta, com um pouco mais de homogeneidade, e estarão prontos para vôos altos, até mesmo fora das fronteiras verde-amarelas.
