Chapel Cat 02:24
lyrics
rain floods the bridge between fact and emotion are we real at all is this life at all tall beams hold the earth unstable and splintering one wrong move we all fall overboard to our demise but that's OK with me I saved a cat from the pouring rain with a person I deeply care for cat roams the chapel

I'm Going Home 05:00
lyrics
Farewell, vain world! I'm going home! My savior smiles and bids me come, And I don't care to stay here long! Sweet angels beckon me away, To sing God's praise in endless day, And I don't care to stay here long! Right up yonder, Christians, away up yonder, O, yes my Lord, for I don't care to stay here long. I'm glad that I am born to die, From grief and woe my soul shall fly, And I don't care to stay here long! Bright angels shall convey me home, Away to New Jerusalem, And I don't care to stay here long!

Busted Head 04:19
lyrics
never wash away the marks show them off show and tell make the other boys fragile make the other girls watch never cry don't you dare enjoy all the pain busted head but wild fame walk down the aisle of ruin it's what's in right now i swear maybe they'll like it like that i bet they'll clap watch as they subside my time is paid in full subsidized by your suffering thank you in advance

Milk and Honey 02:55
lyrics
the words i love you must've slipped my mind until you died maybe this was on purpose but i couldn't tell you that the way i view the world somewhere between a promise land and nothing milk and honey don't really sound appetizing to me but i'd like some peace

Long Live The New Flesh 05:50
lyrics
you don't understand this world it's alright i don't either touch my skin hold me down i'll find some purpose
7.
Killing Moon 02:44
lyrics
Under a blue moon I saw you So soon you'll take me Up in your arms Too late to beg you or cancel it Though I know it must be the killing time Unwillingly mine Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him In starlit nights I saw you So cruelly you kissed me Your lips a magic world Your sky all hung with jewels The killing moon Will come too soon Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him Under a blue moon I saw you So soon you'll take me Up in your arms Too late to beg you or cancel it Though I know it must be the killing time Unwillingly mine

about

TAOGU's lates LP is the most difficult listen yet. Long time fans might have seen the stylistic change coming with older tracks like "Art Can't Save The World" and "Caught Out In The Rain" but this new project is even more experimental than previous releases.

"Tarnished" blends the singer songwriter sentiments of previous releases with Post Punk inspired instrumentals.

Though a challenging listen, "Tarnished" is a rewarding listen.
