Made a Fool 03:33
Watch, for the holes inside your mind They’re spreading, they’re growing, troubles of that kind Cold-hearted, cruel, the souls let you know Although it’s hard you must let go From the dungeons of your mind, you know it’s true It’s out and about and it's made a fool of you You sit with a lock on your door Keep the world out, that’s what it’s for Take a look at yourself, and you can’t bare The odd stare that you get when you stand out From the dungeons of your mind, you know it’s true It’s out and about and it's made a fool of you So keep inside, keep away That’s the place that you should stay Because the boys are out and they’re out to hurt You shoot your shot and you use your shell Running from that place you’ve labeled hell Tumbling and failing, you trip on yourself That old idea at the back of the shelf

Come to Life 04:08
Let them know Before we fall below Cause do they care? No they don’t care It’s not far to go Let them know Before we fall below Cause do they care? No they don’t care It’s not far to go Get your head round this knot of us Get your gut and tear it up Shoot your shot and shout What’s that? A prick in your spine From who? From your friends online And they’re talking about walking over the line Don’t run, cause you might trip Don’t scream as you board your battleship It’s too safe running, let’s get a knife, flip the barrels and come to life Get your head round this knot of us Get your gut and tear it up Shoot your shot and shout What is this life for? Loot and burn the store All I want is war What now? Surely it’s too late I think so Too hard to contemplate Oh that, that prick in my spine It probably started because we’re all online Because we're all online

Illusions 03:26
What do you see when you look? Is it a man or is it what they took? Hollowed out, nothing is there Reciver of your contempt ridden stare Just a man, just a lie, just another helpless sigh Justify your use of giving up on the truth There's too much to let go, there's too much to let go But something's gotta give, something's gotta drift, something's gotta shift Drift away from us, and lift us up Take the apple of your eye And cut it up so we all cry A leech on the heart of man We must change our masterplan Engage, or drown There's too much to let go Too much to let go But something's gotta give But something's gotta give Something's gotta give But something's gotta give Take the apple of your eye And cut it up so we all cry A leech on the heart of man We must change our masterplan

Lost forgotten envious souls Sky above blotted out by droves of birds Oh they fly Subtle tendencies and nuanced bliss Paid through silence's waiting kiss Tender embers burn quiet slow Please don't go, please don't go Away, taking the light, taking the day Away, living this plight, living this way Hatred waits for those who sleep Beyond the night, beneath our feet And while we search for mercy deep Crenated calluses watch them weep Subtle tendencies and nuanced bliss Paid through silence's waiting kiss Tender embers burn quiet slow Please don't go, please don't go Away, taking the light, taking the day Away, living this plight, living this way Away, taking the light, taking the day Away, living this plight, living this way Impossible task, to speak at last Tongue twisted by our conscious minds Heart beat slowly, lungs fill harder Eyelids blink, servant to our master of mind

Violet 03:02
Endless temptation in your God bitten mind Swipe, swipe swallow, cantankerous blind Funneled down the shute, perfume mixed with puke Heathen chemicals collide, anger mixed with pride Ancient enemy, battle on still Bloated, impatient for more Greed a virtue, when your people cry out for war Oh when they cry out for war Life on the line Hatred time and time again Oh do you have say these words Oh when they cry Oh when they cry out for war

Tumbling cold, the wind bites me I fit the mold, but I lost the key Teaching and preaching, they're not the same thing Difference is, one's now a sin Every corner, every street, we take our strife A chorus of anger, waiting to be heard Cause I'm free All that's in the past I can't believe this love we see Possible winter's last All we can do, is fight the wind and the rain Avoiding suffering by doling out pain Cause I'm free All that's in the past I can't believe this love we see Possible winter's last Thank God I'm free All that's in the past I can't believe this love we see Possible winter's last Tumbling cold, the wind bites me I fit the mold, but I lost the key Teaching and preaching, they're not the same thing Difference is, one's now a sin

You look all sly and you won't come clean You talk the talk and the talk runs you But you're not free, just stuck in a zoo You shoot your shot and you use your shell Running from that place you’ve labeled hell Tumbling and failing, you trip on yourself That old idea at the back of the shelf

Clean orchards Tantalising bliss Striking chords beneath the mist Beneath the mist Strength, power, an ultimate quest Left to the quiet serenity when we coexist Yet can we reach this heavenly place? Must we resist? Must we resist? Must we resist? It weaves, it winds Carving its snake trail, a bitter demon Striking with its tail Howling fast (howling fast) A slap, a cry A slap, a cry Angels above, busy flying high Flying high Will it happen? Will it not? Indecision and action Anthesis to rot Tumbling, falling Out it goes Culture? Cold Away it flows Away it flows Beneath the mist While we strike our chords

I wanted to run away Day by day, the need grew stronger Till I cracked Enough was enough, enough was enough Disgusting open Value token Modest die Liberal fly Left or right? Fight or flight? Options galore Yet left dead, on the floor End your devotion Hate the potion Force fed by fools Created to conform End your devotion Hate the potion Force fed by fools Created to conform

about

Influx of Insanity have been playing together since 2016. In the five years since, we've released five singles, two EPs and played around 60 gigs. Influx: The Collection features some of our best moments from those five years.

From live recordings of our first major gig in 2017 to a cut from our headline performance earned after winning BurySOUND in 2018; from live takes in the Annex to acoustic cuts in the middle of a field; from EPs recorded entirely at home to the dual singles recorded in 2020 when we finally upgraded to a professional studio, this album has it all. It even features two unreleased songs, 'Illusions' and 'Orthoplex', which had outings live but we never got round to releasing.

We've had so much fun writing, recording, and performing these tunes and have grown so much as musicians and people as a result. As you go through, this album shows that development musically. We hope you enjoy.

Dom and Oli
