Gimme another, another flavor, I'm always hungry, I need another Another bite of, of all that flavor It's so delicious, I cannot miss it. Bring back those flavors, all of those tastes Not a single one left a trace For all the memories that left us within They seem to not repeat what we were given. Bring back those flavors! A distant sound is within the spine But I would drown it with cheese and wine If there's no such thing as peace and quiet I might as well just have another bite The taste of glory is in my brain But will I ever taste it again? Until I finally sip the golden goblet I'll fill this gaping void with greasy pockets. Gimme another, another flavor I'm always hungry, I need another Another bite of, of all that flavor It's so delicious, I cannot miss it. The pans are screaming with sizzling grease We'll overfill 'em, so you get a piece And then another, I'll never tell Slap on the butter, unnotch the belt. What can you spell out With all those nood's? A can of flavor, Delicacy Cruise The world's so tasty It's on a plate Let's lift the lid up Let's smell the fate!

Bargain Bin 04:15
And I'm going to the bargain bin I know where to get the right price I've been praying for this deal Ever since The Good Lord saw the sunrise. Where the stickers are yellow You can let the suckers pay in full I'm standing in line With the wise minds at Target, squeeze, aim and pull. There's a voice in the intercom There's an angel in the window Watching my spending decisions Leave me swimming at the end of the rainbow I know where I went wrong I know where I went wrong Throw away the bad coupons Open up my heart to the real song. And I'm gonna buy something Make sure that I get a good price And I'm going to the bargain bin Going to see where the bargains never gonna end I'm going straight for the price tag multi-sticker. And I'm going to the bargain bin And I'm gonna get the right price I'm going where the stickers are low Going free by my inner face. Where the stickers are yellow And the sign is hanging down Well, how The Lord let 44 cent fall I might've found.

My Bike 03:17
The stones that form the angel's feet I pull my lips from an ancient kiss Own, nothing of my own The seeds were sown unto weeds and bone. I don't need another way. Bleed, bleed if I bled Feed the stones and wood where hero stood. Called, called to the cave By the jasper rays, the ashen spray. Dawn, pray for the dawn To escape the din of a shattered whim. I could read it all again. The subtle curves of the droning earth. I don't need another way. As I watch the letters fade in the molten waves Waves, No loss of truth betrayed The broken thoughts they frame Frame, They mask the ancient shame.

Father, I feel it is time For what, my child? I was hoping you would tell me. Ha, ha, ha. But you laugh and I am well. And I’m glad of this. Now where am I to go? A crown, a haunted hurricane A jewel at evil’s hem If you would meet again. The wax, the oozing spectres’ tracks At the quaking rim, If you would begin. I don’t need another way.

Broken Angel 03:25
Peeking down and underneath it Praying for a juice to fall into my lappy. But until that blessed moment I cannot complain or do anything nasty. Creeping up and down the alley Laughing while the little kitty’s looking at me. Biting on the side of trash cans Feeling like aluminum, it really knows me. There’s another way. Picking up the little pieces I can imagine baking in the desert. Folded into broken ‘gami I can just start melting like an old banana. Holding on the hands of heaven Piece of cactus falling from a broken sky. Laying in it, burger diving Now the people are looking in my real eyes. I’m not just another one of I’m not just another one of satan’s homies Used to let compassion hold me Rather leave that bastard lying sad and lonely. I’m not one to do the sinning And I know it’s been this way since the beginning There’s a broken angel in me I can feel him pushing through, the veil is thinning.

Hold, holding on too far Now you’re underneath the tar. Bold, bold you were to dive See the glory in your melting eyes Warm, warm as you may be This is not your true eternity Ah, back again for more? Hope you brought what you’ve learned in the ore. Can you see what a snake I’ve been? In the weeds, as a friend You don’t need that kind of friend While the ocean spray may be sweet There is no need For this shit at your feet. Can I see what you’re holding on Does it feel any better, then, holding on? Can you pass me that rope? I don’t mind where it goes, I just want to give it a pull. Have you seen where I’ve been? To myself I have not been a friend. Can you pass me that rope? I don’t care where it goes, I just want to give it a pull.

Lomasosi 02:20
I Will Not Forget all those times. I Will not Let them Go to waste. I’ll Cherish the times Immemorial. Ah.

about

This is the music from a visual album I "created" by slurrying up a ton of found footage along with songs I wrote and recorded.

"Those Flavors" is all about being an idiot. I would also like to call the album Sisyphus because it is all about ignoring obvious signs and repeating the same mistakes. Naturally my love for combining genuine reverence for the ultimate with a loving disdain for this human world is present, as in all of the work I have made. The reason I would like to share this album is because I find it pleasing, and I would like for others to have the opportunity to be pleased by it as well. Anything worthwhile about this art project is not my doing, but that of the art itself, and so it seems it would be greedy not to share it.

I hope this album will find you at the right time, and that through it we may revel in the majesty of this world together. Thank you.

--BOPERMANS



This album was recorded in a bathtub and a bedroom in Ojai California, Couchsurfing hosts' homes in Ille-sur-Têt and Montpellier in France, and a shed in Bellingham Washington. I did not shoot any of the footage in this film, I only altered it to a great extent.
