"You don't care" by Velvet Razor
(C) 2013 All rights reserved.
Taken from the Velvet Razor EP
"Razor's Edge - The Garden Studio Sessions"
Released in July 2006
About::
This song is in the classic rock style (with a twist of mod),
it is music with an incessant driving and hypnotic rhythm,
music that conjures overtones of "The Doors". Breathy
deep vocals that mourn for lost love, with Ray Manzarek of
The Doors style keyboards, a persistent blues guitar riff
that works its way deep into your brain. Tension building
drumming that releases in the climatic choruses.
"You don't care" wears it's 60's/70's badge with pride.
Influences::
The Doors, The manic street preachers
Lemonrock had this to say about the songs influences...
Red Hot Chili Peppers , Hothouse_Flowers, Del Amitri,
with perhaps a nod to 60s psychedelia à la Small faces
and the menace of Manic Street Preachers, his is
irresistible listening. Great to hear original quality
material from a live gigging band."

"The Castle" by Velvet Razor
(C) 2013 All rights reserved.
Taken from the Velvet Razor EP
"Razor's Edge - The Garden Studio Sessions"
Released in July 2006
About::
The castle, though a medieval subject lyrically,
the music is strictly alternative rock. It is a song
with Indie vocals, percussive U2 type guitar,
with haunting harpsichords, synths and crashing
drums. The Castle is a song that is considered to be
a cornerstone piece of Velvet Razor's live music set.
Influences::
U2, Simple Minds, Talking Heads, Radiohead

“The Castle” by Velvet Razor
(C) 2013 All rights reserved.
Taken from the Velvet Razor EP
“Razor’s Edge – The Garden Studio Sessions”
Released in July 2006
About::
This is a bouncy pop rock tune. Driving Funky type Bass,
with wah-wah guitar (with added boom chicka wah wah ?)
(and now wah bass guitar during passages in our live shows)
It tells the tale of “Cherry Red” a young teaser of a girl,
who likes to keep her boys hot and bothered.
The schoolboy protagonist and former lover “wanna-be”
has other ideas.
