Watch the video for SKIN MACHINE by CIRCU5. Please share! None of the others can give you what you need I'll make them suffer and make you want me You are the one Now prove them wrong Let’s pull the wires from the machinery And start a funeral pyre with our dark alchemy Jagged tongues of fire will caress and consume them Kneeling to admire our divinity Holding me close, she said… Left to corrode, an outmoded device Reset the code and perfect your disguise Programmed to oppress with no hope of redemption Mechanical made of flesh, toy messiah will rise Twisting the rope, she said… Break free from your skin machine Let me be your Magdalene Or go back to your old routines On with the show None of the others can give you what you need I'll make them suffer and make you want me You are the one Now prove them wrong Let’s pull the wires from the machinery And start a funeral pyre with our dark alchemy Time to learn, never turn, watch them burn… Video by Von Grey (www.saatchiart.com/VonGrey).

WWW.CIRCU5.COM Roll up, freaks... Amid the pestilence, we've been busy demoing new CIRCU5 songs for the next albumen. Here's one called Skin Machine. It's a work-in-progress... no vocals as yet, and contributions are on the way from Paul Clark and Mark Kilminster. But to whet your appetite, here's Lee Moulding doing a live drum take from his studio today. Talented bugger... More bare-all snippets to come!

Think CIRCU5, think compelling conceptual rock with a progressive twist, wrapped in a story about a child raised as a psychopath. CIRCU5 (pronounced ‘circa five’) is the brainchild of Steve Tilling – a British multi-instrumentalist and guitarist/vocalist for TC&I (the band of Colin Moulding and Terry Chambers from XTC). The CIRCU5 band features Steve on vocals and guitar, Paul Clark (ex-David Cross Band) on guitar and vocals, Mark Kilminster (ex-Tin Spirits) on bass and vocals, and Lee Moulding (TC&I and Rewire the Time Machine) on drums and vocals. The debut CIRCU5 album features guest performances from Dave Gregory (XTC, Big Big Train), Phil Spalding (Mike Oldfield), Matt Backer (Julian Lennon), Alan van Kleef (Rachel Stamp), Johnny Warman (Peter Gabriel) and Andy Neve (Steve Hackett). The CIRCU5 album is available on CD in a book-style package with a 28-page booklet, download card and 'secret' document from various retailers and at www.circu5.com.
