Flesh 06:16
A dance in the shadows Of Andy's art Lost in the chaos Torn apart Drawn to the fame And the flesh It was all new So cool and so fresh Painting pain On the canvas of life Amidst the carnage The chaos and strife Filming a life On 8mm Makes it even More completer The city's pulse Rushing through your veins Weaving through the madness Gripped by the chains There’s a special beauty In the grit and the grime Summer 68 In that distant time In the clash of desires The clash of the flesh It was so much fun So cool and so fresh I met you in the glow Of the Factory's light A beautiful soul So lost in the night You said you'd love me But your words were a lie I found out the truth And I started to cry You were hanging around With the crowd so elite In the heart of the city Where the wild things would meet In the clash of desires The clash of the flesh Let’s meet at the factory So cool and so fresh There’s a frog in my throat On 42nd Street NYC Have a seat

Trash 05:39
Streets of the city, a filmic embrace Pop Art whispers, in a vibrant chase Trash to treasure, in the artist's spree A canvas of life, where the soul is free Canvas and film, an artistic blend Pop Art whispers, where pictures transcend In the echoes of Pop, in the Factory's songs Trash finds beauty, where it belongs Trash drifts like an invisible breeze The city doesn’t sleep, in the rhythm of sleaze In the midst of trash, where beauty lies Truly magic in vibrant skies Between skyscrapers and the subway's hum Lies a tale, that is long gone Silver screens flicker, in the Factory's pain Icons and idols, in a glamorous reign Trash drifts like an invisible breeze The city doesn’t sleep, in the rhythm of sleaze In the midst of trash, where beauty lies Truly magic in vibrant skies New York City new decade Holly and Joe A sad parade Strip for me At rock bottom Can’t you see You might be forgotten Trash drifts like an invisible breeze The city doesn’t sleep, in the rhythm of sleaze In the midst of trash, where beauty lies Truly magic in vibrant skies Trash drifts like an invisible breeze The city doesn’t sleep, in the rhythm of sleaze In the midst of trash, where beauty lies Truly magic in vibrant skies

Heat 04:38
Feel the heat Feel the beat It’s hotter in the city Where People look so pretty Feel the heat Feel the need It’s hotter in the city Sometimes it can get gritty

about

Trilogy: Flesh Trash Heat was inspired by the underground film trilogy FLESH/TRASH/HEAT, produced by artist Andy Warhol in his famous Factory between 1968 and 1972. All three films were directed by Paul Morrissey and had Joe Dallesandro in the leading role.

The EP was conceived as an homage to Andy Warhol, to the Factory, to art and to the era around the end of the 60s and the beginning of the 70s, but also to the city of New York then and now. Over 50 years ago, it was a time of upheaval (isn't it always?), insecurity, sexual revolution, war, rebellion, experimentation with drugs, (then) new technologies and so much more. With all its beautiful but also dark sides. And actually, not so much different from today,

The songs on Trilogy are intended to work both in conjunction with the films and the era, but also completely independently of them.
