Shore holds me it fits like a glove rain calls me cold sisters of love Of course I lied but so what? If that's what you want then crawl away and hide Lead me into the sea that will be the end of me

Dancing alone a neckless giraffe cause & effect the disco revolves Dancing too loud spinning right out lost in the crowd in the crowd Hello night time when the wire is lit and streets are all bare and there's no thinking allowed Door swings ajar cause & effect of a still born heart crawling too loud spinning upside down but you're on your own you're on your own

I weigh it up then dive in straight the thrill is the fall when it falls in to place but do you feel any more when you leave nothing to chance And the sun comes up for another day but I like the dark I can hide away can you anymore with nothing to chance and the babble flows and on and on and the flames in my head burn to beyond and i wish i could swim but i leave no trace and that's what happens when you leave nothing to chance (one day we might be happy) And you can drown in air the air we all breathe when the smallest sigh has razor teeth and they cut you in two a mouth that feeds its face and that's what happens when there's nothing to chance (one day we might be happy)

about

A four tracked four track e.p. by Vladivostok recorded in a warehouse in Redfern, Sydney, in March 1998.
So called because it was was released onto a red coloured cassette and then sent to China, where it was heard everyday by millions of citizens of the rural south western-provinces on XingFang FM, the radio station run by the famous teenaged ping-pong player. Eventually the cassette broke, causing disappointment to their legion of fans. This was to be the last Vladivostok release, except that it actually wasn't. Vladivostok went on to tour Hunan,Jiangxi,Guizhou & Sichuan provinces before being politely but very firmly asked to leave China.
