about

During the first lockdown my stepson Edwin sent me daily little piano snippets he recorded through his mobile's microphone. Trying to sonically rescue them I found they contained an eery atmosphere not unlike the piano sounds found on Gabriel's phenomenal 3rd album.
The track included here is the 2rd remix from the original posted on YouTube, and with the video being a 'hit' with my fans it prompted the album title.

lyrics

Better keep your distance
better stay locked down and in
this one is persistent
this one comes from deep within

Better look behind you
better be prepared
it is all around you
as if you ever cared

This sickness will not go away
this sickness is here to stay

Better know your enemy
try not to hard to breathe
you might inhale insanity
always lurking underneath

This sickness will not go away
this sickness is here to stay
this sickness will not go away
unless you do

A head full of conspiracies
minds smeared with deadly dirt
words obscuring transparencies
the future comes on all blurred
(always on bs alert)

Schönfeld recommends:

A Journal Of The Plague Year (a compilation)
by Sunex Amures

Fellow bandcamper Sunex Amures makes the best out of our year of the plague and releases one scorcher after another. From rocking Baroque Prog to funky, punky Psyche it's all there. Unmissable. Schönfeld

Holy Wars
by Tuxedomoon

Heroes. Gods. No other band sounded like them 40 odd years ago, and no band does now. Avantgarde, left-field and immensely listenable - you simply MUST hear these guys' work. Schönfeld

Live with The No.6 Orchestra
by Everything Everything

Proof that intelligent Rock and Pop is alive and well! Blending angular guitar work, otherworldly vocals and vast soundscapes with modern rhythms this youngsters succeed where other fail. Great stuff! Schönfeld
