Inspired by a running joke between myself and my brother
lyrics
Too much rhubarb, not enough custard,
Too much hot dog, not enough mustard,
Too much McFly and too much Busted,
This shit should make you all disgusted
Too much oopsie, not enough daisy,
Too much normal, not enough crazy,
Too much of everything making us lazy,
Sense is getting rather hazy
Too much then and not enough now,
Too much zen and not enough POW,
Too much ‘meh’ and not enough WOW,
With all these fools trying to tell us how
Too much face and not enough book,
Too much plan and not enough luck,
Too much blow and too much suck,
And so many who don’t give a fuck
But it’s not over until the bearded lady sings
Every note drawn from that special dusty book she brings
Hidden in plain sight for every one of us to see
As all that is and was shall be, a curious family tree
Too much ying and not enough yang,
Too much pop and not enough bang,
Too much the bearded lady sang,
Step off the chair, it’s time to hang
Too much talk and not enough do,
Too much dumpling and not enough stew,
Too much old and not enough new,
It’s time to take a broader view
Too much paper and not enough weight,
Too much average and not enough great,
Not enough love, far too much hate,
The game is over at this rate
Too much of everything today
Too much, and for it we will pay
Too much for all of us to stay
Get in the rocket ships – AWAY!
Psychedelic, punk, prog & pop in roughly equal measures, and taking in many other influences en route, 7shades might appeal to anyone with a love for unusual music played with conviction by people who really should know better!
Most recent album from criminally ignored pop geniuses, you could equally check any of their other myriad of releases. I don't think I've ever heard a Misty's song I didn't like :-) 7shades
A recent discovery, but made my jaw drop - serious choral harmonies set against heavy Crimson-esque backing. Sounds like nothing else I've ever heard! 7shades

Soaring theatrical catchy rock and pop tunes that are not boring and segue and evolve linearly from one to the next. If they sound this big with DIY production, imagine how insanely huge they’d sound with big time production. Sound in the neighborhoods of Bowie, Floyd, and Cardiacs. This whole record moves me and I can’t pick a favorite song. marc_ian
Seattle band somesurprises return with lofty, pretty dream pop that recalls the dissonant beauty of Broadcast, Grouper, and MBV. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 13, 2024
