From what started as a rock band, with vocalist Ruth Carr on drums, suddenly became an electronica/dance band after a sampler was purchased by Ryan Beehre and that change alone gave them the opportunity to move Ruth Carr from the drum kit to out front as the vocalist. It was a great move because she has such a stage presence. "Fuji" was from their second album 'The Guards Themselves' from 2006... an album so consistently good that most of the songs were added to Bitter FM playlists. Ruth Carr's vocal style is quite unique and the lyrics are sometimes hard to decipher... so I've added the lyrics to "Fuji". I have to admit, after the 100's of times I've listened to this song, the lyrics are not what I thought I was hearing.
(Lyrics)
Here's to those who thought you knew me
I'm like 36 views of Mount Fuji
Ashamed of this way that I behaved
Call me what you like
Call me what you like
Call me what you like
Call me what you like
Call me what you like
Prepare for an assault by air
This is hi-tech advanced audio warfare
We are now gaining ground by this that you hear
Call it what you like
Call it what you like
Call it what you like
Call it what you like
I'm like a nomad and this is my tribe
