  Right now our most replayed song on Bandcamp is Kiss Me (It’s not a romantic song). Our favourite line in this one is:- Light me up and pass me the gas. As far as we know it’s the only rock song about the genital mutilation of kids. It rocks too. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/kiss-me

  It’s #MusicWomenWednesday and here’s Cold Dead Hands. Your kill, your trophy. You know what? It doesn’t thrill me. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/cold-dead-hands-3

  In the absence of a relevant hashtag today, we thought we’d create our own, so here’s the first ever #ThursdayThumpers. Kiss Me is our most played song on Bandcamp in recent weeks. The title sounds romantic, but the first line is “Kiss me, with a mouth full of razors.” It’s not romantic. It’s part of a very small group of rock songs (possibly the only one) about the genital mutilation of kids. It’s also a thumping good rock song though. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/kiss-me

  For #MusicWomenWednesday this week we humbly submit The Sound Of My Soul. It’s an uncharacteristically optimistic and loving track about being (re)united with a birth parent. We’ll be back to destroying planets and insulating Trumps after this brief outburst of positivity. 👽👽👽👽 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/the-sound-of-my-soul

  Are you a musician, band, poet or performer that wants to play the newest festival on the Isle of Skye? Hit us up.

  Here’s the second in our utterly uncalled for #ThursdayThumpers series. Killing Time represents the eager anticipation of Aliens about to feast on human flesh. Nom, nom, nom. 👽👽👽👽 🍔🌭🌮🥙 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/killing-time

  We’re a tiny bit late for #AlternateFridayMusic, but we’re aliens, so we’re not constrained by puny human concepts like time and space. The theme is #BreakUp, so here’s Orchard Towers. I thought that I was your addiction, It was never love. I was only friction. 👽👽👽👽 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/orchard-towers

  It’s #JukeboxFridayNight and the theme is #Waiting, so we’re going to share two tracks that are about the same wait. Life and Sound Of My Soul are both about reuniting an adoptee with their birth mother after a wait of more than 50 years, but they come at the experience from different angles. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/life https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/the-sound-of-my-soul

  It’s #JukeboxFridayNight once more and this week the theme is #HotOrCold, so here’s Cold Dead Hands. Of course, the title comes from the famous Charlton Heston speech to the NRA. “I’ll give you my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead hands”, said Charlton. “OK then” said the Aliens. 👽 👽👽 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/cold-dead-hands-3

  This #JukeboxFridayNight the theme is #CloseToOurHearts, so here’s Life. Reuniting with a birth mother after nearly 60 years apart. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/life

  It’s #TuneTuesday and the theme is #BreakfastSongs. We’re going with Killing Time. It’s a song about aliens using puny humans for food. Sort of… Could be breakfast, right? https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/killing-time

  It’s time for another #JukeboxFridayNight, but it’s not actually #BandcampFriday even though it should be. The theme this Friday is #PowerPlay, so we’ve gone back to the vaults to share You’re The Virus, We’re The Cure. It’s a song about the aliens that seeded life on earth. They’re coming back to wipe out all human life, because the experiment has gone so badly. “We seeded life in primordial slime, You fucked it up, Better luck next time.” https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/youre-the-...

  It’s #TuneTuesday and this week the theme is #TravelSongs. Dark Passenger is a song about a lone astronaut on the brink of insanity on an interstellar flight. Is that a travel song? You be the judge… https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/dark-passenger

• Post #3405416

  This #JukeboxFridayNight the theme is #Stereotypes, so here’s Cold Dead Hands. The stereotypical puny human that hunts for sport is an asshole. “I want a trophy, it’s you skinned in the floor” https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/cold-dead-hands-3

• Post #3299589

  It’s #JukeboxFridayNight once more. This week it’s #MusicMusiciansAndMashups That’s a bit of a mouthful! Here’s Cold Dead Hands. This version is a stripped back, soulful arrangement of the song. It’s very different to our usual, aggressive rock, but the vitriol is still there in the lyrics. “I want a trophy, it’s you skinned on the floor.” - The song takes a dim view of puny humans who hunt for sport to inflate their fragile egos, especially if they are Trumps! https://alienanomaly.bandc...

  It’s #MusicWomenWednesday and here’s Dumbfuckistan, because only a woman can deliver the line “your country’s on the rocks, cos your president’s a cock.” It gets more relevant by the day! 👽👽👽👽 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/dumbfuckistan

  Our first time on stage with a didgeridoo at Glasnabury on Skye last weekend.

  It’s #MusicWomenWednesday so here’s Extraordinary. It’s from the album Heaven Sent, which tells a number of tales about a woman’s journeys of liberation. This particular one is a journey of liberation from religion. It even ends with a quotation from Carl Sagan. Aliens like Carl Sagan. 👽👽👽👽 https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/extraordinary

  It’s #TuneTuesday. It’s #SmokeAndSmokingSongs, so here’s Inside Out. Inside Out is a song about the curious attraction of death by addiction. “You say you love me like a gun to my head.” https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/inside-out

• Post #1939288

  It’s #JukeboxFridayNight and this week the theme is #PunkRock, which is a pretty sweet spot for us. So here’s Up To No Good. Remarkably it’s about people who follow politicians who they know (deep down) are driving society over a cliff. It’s like we’re prescient or something! https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/up-to-no-good

  Would people be more cautious online if we changed the terminology from web browser to personal data raper?

• Post #1939286

  It’s #TuneTuesday with the theme #WhatShallWeDrink So here’s Inside Out. It’s a song about death by addiction (amongst other things). “You say you love me like an open sore” https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/album/ethereal-material?t=9

  This #MusicWomenWednesday try a slice of Dumbfuckistan. We don’t want to suggest that aliens can predict the future (obviously we can), but this was written 7 or 8 years ago. “Your country’s on the rocks, cos your president’s a cock.” https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/dumbfuckistan

• Post #1939284

  It is remarkable that we wake up to the news that a gunman tried to rush the White House Correspondents Dinner and that we find the story entirely unremarkable.

  We tend to write songs about subjects that most other bands don’t write about. Assassination attempt in Washington? Here’s Head Shot. https://alienanomaly.bandcamp.com/track/head-shot

• Post #1939281

  Given the availability of guns and the prevalence of crazies in the US, the surprising thing about political assassinations is their infrequency, not their frequency.

• Post #1939280

  When your administration is so inept that your would be assassin critiques your poor security arrangements out of concern for the country! “…this level of incompetence is insane…”
