    The psychedelic blues-rock duo of Papa Niz and Baby Kiz, a taurus and a libra, armed with nothing more than a slide guitar, microphone and a beat up old drum, have released their first debut album today. This 10 song record bears little to no resemblance to either well known artist's musical style and dives deep into a tasty collection of dirty, desert-drenched gutter blues rock. This powerful musical duo and their tickle trunk of costumes and props set out to make an album that is fun, raw, rocking and 100% by their own rules.

    "Well well well, it's finally here, the 35 minutes you've all been waiting for. We love to play every song on this album and now you can too! In your headphones or whatever. We have CDs available for the Neil crowd, Kandle is still pushing for the vinyl for the youngsters. We are kin. We make our music from experimenting with various audio scraps and acting on our emotions. We have A LOT of emotions! The music is pure folk-art, worked from found objects(something old, something new) transformed into music.We are one-take wonders, DIY, bluesy swampy geniuses and we've made you a raw and rockin record filled with curses BUT we never use curse words because mom would kill us. Best listened under the moonlight with a glass of whiskey and a python. ENJOY"

lyrics

I don’t see nothin’, it’s hard to hear
It don’t mean nothin’ when it comes from fear
And I don’t feel it, I’m not at ease
It still means nothin’ when you come chasing me

You won’t let me back home
Soon I’ll be a battered bag of bones

But now it’s in me, twisted my spine
But you won’t notice cuz I’ve been looking fine
I won’t be sleeping and looking pale
We’re wasting nothing when you drag me to Hell

Chorus
