You know we’re the exception neither thrown nor caught, Your same old joke isn’t funny anymore. Can’t be bothered giving up, too proud to call for help, But baby I’d gave you up if you were someone else I’m a shadow I’m a shadow I’m a shadow a shadow of my former self I read a book by you about a better place in it I lay beside you studying your face We are brittle crack or crumble in that looming battle between thrown and caught we are running we cant stop running we are only doing what we were taught I read a book by you about a better place in it I lay inside you stroking your face

about

A funeral reunites two old friends who have been out of touch for 30 years. Both discover that they are suffering from a musical itch and they begin to work together making music.
They pick up where they left off in 1985 and fuse all the musical knowledge they have accumulated in the last 30 years with the new wave and post-punk sounds from their youth.
Politricks have formulated a collection of music with its roots in Brisbane new wave rock from the '80s fused with a whole life time's worth of experiences. These tracks are the rantings of two musicians who pretend to do nothing more than use their music as therapy for dealing with their own lives and fulfil their desire to express themselves musically through a long distrance colaboration with Kajati living in Valencia, Spain and Matte in Melbourne, Australia.
