LAST LAUGH

Monique I couldn't choose between this song or Give Me Your Head as my faves from this album. Both are amazing examples of the versatility, skill, and fun cleverness of this band. I wish the trio would continue to collaborate. When they make music together they capture something that when separated, though equally talented, doesn't translate the same. But I'll love KUDU (Art World Killer) for life! Sylvia, D, and Nic, thanks for the good times and amazing music. Favorite track: PRONOIA.

UP ALL NIGHT He's got you good, he knows you're an addict Say 'don't know if I should' but we see you're still at it How did you get here, where will you go? We don't bother asking, cuz we know you don't know Up all night with the neon lights You're an animal covered in sequins Up all night still shining' bright Night creature creeping' and tweakin' Up all night Oh baby where's your mind Up all night Push into overdrive You live to stay up all nightt Rebel rebel without a cause Same old story without a plot As long as you stay young and hot And dance in circles so you wont get lost Up all night with synthetic lights You're an animal in high class hooves Up all night still full of fight Climbin' buildings and wrecking the roofs Up all night Oh baby where's your mind Up all night Push into overdrive You live to stay up all night You keep talking like they care what you're thinking Still rocking off fumes and instinct Wet clothes, rotten breath You're one hell of an expensive mess Go home to you other life They can tell you've been up all night Up all night Oh baby where's your mind Up all night Push into overdrive You live to stay up all night Up all night Oh baby where's your mind Up all night Push into overdrive You live to stay up all night

GIVE ME YOUR HEAD Give! Me! Your! Head! Hey! Uh oh, Hey! Aah uh uh I am the hammer you are the head Let's get undressed Your quiet manner has made me sweat Now let's get down in Mother's flower bed Give me you head Head! Your head Head! Give me you head Head! Your head Head! You make me mental I want to be gentle But you made me wait too long I'm half past the faking, went from asking to taking Let's be direct so we don't get it wrong Give me you head Head! Your head Head! Give me you head Head! Your head Head! Your endless tongue, Is the road I travel on I'll slip and Ill slide, til your conscious subsides 'til you give up Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head Give me your.. head I'm gonna knock you out Gonna send you flying through the rainbow colored clouds As fast as I can Now you be in ecstasy as the rose explodes with laughter at the sight of your silly nose Breathe deep, so sweet, the taste of your brains And if you start to see orchids in variety You'll soon feel the tropical rain Give me you head ...Your head Give me you head ... Your head Give me you head Your ...Head!

MOUTH OF MADNESS Dancing through dust and disaster They haven't killed what they've been after Swinging from the rotting rafters I'm still dizzy with the laughter I'm still alive and Im still walking Im still a diamond it's just ripped stockings Torture me but I'm not talking Ive gone mad it's nothing shocking Over the edge with gladness I'm loving life in the mouth of madness Growing flowers from the fascists Im loving life in the mouth of madness Heard about the heavy weather No shield not boots no no whatever I'm tough as nails, my skin is leather My spirit is light as a feather My heart still pumps red love I won't survive from others' blood Scratch your brains as to why I revel Cuz I;'m insane I've gone 4th level Over the edge with gladness I'm loving life in the mouth of madness Growing flowers from the fascists Im loving life in the mouth of madness Lights out on the hour It's the hour of the time Lights for the curfew of the body soul and mind Lights out on the hour It's the hour of the time Lights for the curfew of the body soul and mind Lights out. Over the edge with gladness I'm loving life in the mouth of madness Growing flowers from the fascists Im loving life in the mouth of madness Over the edge with gladness I'm loving life in the mouth of madness Growing flowers from the fascists Im loving life in the mouth of madness

HELTER SHELTER Running through the Summer, cuz I know its gonna end Gotta get it all in order for what's around the bend Running through the seasons, running thought years Chasing after feelings, running from the tears and the fears and tears and the.. I did it cuz it felt right, then I woke up the next day Life is but a dream, but I still got bills to pay Im gonna take my chances, cuz do you wanna bet Nobody's got the answer for what happens next Helter Skelter to the bomb shelter When it's our time we will climb Let us reach the top, come out easy And spiral down a happy slide ...We'll leave it all behind There's no telling, how it's gonna hit Come out smellin' like roses, or covered in shit Eaten out from the inside, or death from above Gather round closely, the ones you love Do it cuz it feels right and when you wake up the next day Remember, life is still a dream , fuck those debts you had to pay Your money's no good here, what else have you got? Time is ticking faster, we've got to set it off. Helter Skelter to the bomb shelter When it's our time we will climb Let us reach the top, come out easy And spiral down a happy slide ...We'll leave it all behind OOh OOh Ooh.. Got a message from my brother, from the other side We were standing underneath the clouds, colossal in size They were Twisting and growing, I was terrified The he rolled his eyes, said it'll be alright, as long as you stay high Helter Skelter to the bomb shelter When it's our time we will climb Let us reach the top, come out easy And spiral down a happy slide ...We'll leave it all behind Helter Skelter to the bomb shelter When it's our time we will climb Let us reach the top, come out easy And spiral down a happy slide ...We'll leave it all behind

Everything old is new again!
"‘LAST LAUGH’ ( Sylvia Black/Kudu/ We Are Dark Angels )
▪️Look I get it. These are dark times and art reflects life. So if you’re already not in a good place... please don’t listen. But if you can see it as entertainment or if you take pleasure in facing the darkness head on, you might be into this. The power of the mind is amazing. Let’s imagine a good future and let tragedy one day be a thing of the past ▪️
I used to be in a band called KUDU when I lived in NY. In 2006 we released an album called ‘Death of the Party’ on Nublu Records. We were young. We were/are family. We played around NY, got some good press like The NY Times, and did some international festivals. Then Deantoni Parks, Nick Kasper, and myself, wrote another album in 2012 and called ‘Last Laugh’. We recorded 1/2 in New York and then we headed west and finished it all up with the help of recording/mixing engineer supreme, Ruddy Lee Cullers, in L.A. , in 2013. We never released it. We all went on to other projects but we never forgot about our ‘Last Laugh’. D. and Nick have been doing amazing things including film scores for very cool films as their production duo ‘WADA’ (We🔺Are🔺Dark🔺Angels). I’ve been doing my own stuff etc etc... End of 2019 I posted I’d be doing my “Great Music Purge of 2020!”. So everything must go! I’m starting with this one. So if you’re yearning for the days of yesteryear get into this fun, creepy time capsule of amusements while it's up for a limited time!"
