about

Remote Control was originally a track on Umbrella EP #1 known as "The Boy and the Tree." That limited CD release was packaged and released by the band and has long been out of print.

Sunset Alliance encouraged Umbrella to combine EPs #1 and #2 to remaster and release on a large scale. This was done New Years Day, 2019 and officially released under the title "I & II," accompanied by new artwork conceived by DPJ and designed and crafted by Sam Salima.

lyrics

This cancer grows, this infection of the mind
Remote control
Did that bush just move, are you in disguise
Remote control
What’s in a name, what’s in a name, now
You say you will but no
This can’t happen, distractions
Remote control
TV never lies, never?
Remote control
Here’s a word but it’s just another verse
Remote control
It burns a picture in my brain
This name, this name
What’s in a name
We’ve all gone insane, now
Control, control, control
Confrontations lie undecided
Place your thoughts behind what can’t be spared
We all think as a collective
Try to escape from the captive created in your mind.
