Set between the albums Everyone into position (2005) and Frames (2007),
after Heaven alive (2005) single which was the first one from Everyone Into Position and the LP Frames (which was already showing Oceansize making gigantic steps toward the final end and Self Preserved While The bodies Float Up)
There is New Pin,
Surprising and unnecessary single released by their label at the time
- Beggars Banquet -
and on its B-side the wonderful and unrepeatable
Superfluous to requirements.
Vivacious, dreamy-eyed princess who, as if just woken up in the unfamiliar bed, roams the castle having been bestowed a most wonderful gift of trust, trust that she will not leave the owners castle open-doored and with its heart as empty as a ransacked safe deposit box,
void even from the calling card trace that would lead to a connection.
I heard it for the first time relatively recently
and since then I heard it for hundreds – maybe even thousands of times – set to loop it is repeating and repeating
and is making me soft and pleased.
Vennart, as always, does not hold back toward the protagonist, or the listener:
Seduced,
Fondly laid,
Interwoven with rhythm and meaning , we get slain, cleaned, taxidermatized
and set in space with our huge, ever watching, glassy eyes to observe the world flowing by.
Oh waiter, waiter, make that call, I miss a cue and cause a fall
As I sink the band plays on, I'm pleased as always, pleased
Oh danger, danger, cause of fall, I never claimed I knew it all
I start to wonder what went wrong and I wonder what I could've done
My heart amounts to 50 tonnes and pulls me under, pulls me under
