Why the title '42'? Could you walk us through the songs? Sure. ALL the songs have multiple interpretations and inside jokes, but we'd offer this to any listener looking at the album as a cohesive whole. 42 is a zenslap set to music. It's a reference to Douglas Adams and the various interpretations for the meaning of life we all inevitably come across at some point or the other. TRACKLIST: Something Human, the first track is a social commentary. We touch on the accepted absolutes in religion and education we encountered while growing up in India.

SOMETHING HUMAN
That fractured airplane just missed your temple,
Ordinary man on top of a crowded steeple
If the price is right the end is near
a fistful of dollars oughta get me there.
Amen, seeing is beleiving , kevin
This cant be a lie, santa in the sky
his third limb will suffice
to smite you in the eye
Your dream of being a 5 point something
makes uncle sam lick his lips
needy and lonely Indian man
walking out , making trips.
Amen, seeing is beleiving , kevin
This cant be a lie, santa in the sky
his third limb will suffice
to smite you in the eye

Psychonaut - This was inspired by the seminal standup comedian Bill Hicks, who we'd recommend to anybody with a functioning mind. It's about a man battling his ego, while still trying to find pieces of the big picture.

Caught me off guard
killer on the run
told me a story
trying to lure me
He's here for the catch,
resist and they'l snatch

27 - A reference to dead heroes and ideals. It's about discovering that existential angst and disillusionment are just the first steps in a neverending journey to finding and relishing that personal freedom we all seek.

She told me what to think
seeing her around..
I couldn't stop but stare
For the record I
did'nt seem to care
Hold my hand my sweet angel....
youre my two cents to the world
take me as I am
you make my world turn
We've all lost our way(4)
These times now have got me worried
In shades of bluish grey your probuscis seemed to have reached
An empty dried up core
Lights and sounds seem to pass through like they dont matter anymore
We've all lost our way(4)

Circles
The dancer is lost ,
only the dance remains
HE can be known
When you are not.
Far from home,
Fresh eyes
A marriage of senses
when judgements demise
THE CROWDS THE CROWDS
THE SOUNDS THE SOUNDS
THE EYES THE EYES
The infectious gravity
pulls me in
I shed ....I shed
I run back into my shed
aloneness .
aloneness .
My center, My throne
A familiar zone
THE CROWDS THE CROWDS
THE SOUNDS THE SOUNDS
THE EYES THE EYES
Circles
Circles
around the
Ephemeral purpose

Zen
Feeling, its like a fire inside my head
healing is all I need she said
I walked away
to let it out
I walked away
to figure out
She is a shooting star
Knows who we are
Trying, trying to believe
Maybe, we can under achieve
I walked away
to let it out
I walked away
to figure out
She is a shooting star
Knows who we are
