Eine weitere wirklich gute, aber unbekannte Band ist wohl "Unloco". Mir fällt es schwer Unloco in eine bestimmte Kategorie einzuordnen, da ihr Musikstil einfach einzigartig ist, sicher ist nur, dass es sich um eine Rockband handelt. Leider haben sie sich bereits aus verschiedenen Gründen (darunter der leider nicht so große Erfolg) getrennt, aber bis dahin brachten sie zwei wirklich gute Alben heraus: "Healing" und "Becoming I"

Aufgrund der hohen Qualität dieser Alben, frage ich mich ernsthaft warum der große Erfolg ausblieb. Möglicherweise lag es daran, dass sie lediglich ein Musikvideo ("Failure") produzierten und so nicht an die Öffentlichkeit gelangten. Ich kann "Healing" und "Becoming I" auf jeden Fall empfehlen (insbesondere "Becoming I") und damit ihr euch ein Bild von Unloco machen könnt, habe ich hier ein paar Downloads und Infos.

BECOMING I

Sunlight warms my face
It's hard to take in
An overwhelming grace
From the way that I live
So close to you
I feel so ashamed
This must be new
'Cause I've fallen again

The stench smells so real
Like I've been here before
Emotions will kill
The life I've always known
Because of their lies
The world seems to change
But since you've arrived
I feel no more pain

'Cause I have become the one thing I hate
'Cause I have become the smile on your face
There's no need to save the me that I've made
'Cause I have become the one thing I hate

The unwanted things
That breathe in my skin
Have filled all the void
In which I live in
And every time you bounce
I feel so alive
So many ways to count
The many times I've died

'Cause I have become the one thing I hate
'Cause I have become the smile on your face
There's no need to save the me that I've made
'Cause I have become the one thing I hate

So close to you, so close to you
So close to you, so close to you

'Cause I have become the one thing I hate
'Cause I have become the smile on your face
There's no need to save the me that I've made
'Cause I have become the one thing I hate
The one thing I hate
The one thing I hate
The one thing I hate
The one thing I...
The one thing I hate
The one thing I hate
I, I
The one thing I hate

BRUISES

Please leave me alone
For I cannot let this go
It's the lie that I live
Everything that I give
Shut the fuck up!

Please tell me I have grown
For I have bruises left to show
And I fall in between everything
Let me see

Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises

'Cause I will never let you know
(Never know, never know, never know)
'Cause I will never let you go
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)

Please leave me alone
(Bruises)
Let me see, let me see, let me see, let me see
Let me see, let me see, let me see, let me see

Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises
Come on, get up
Let me see your bruises

BYSTANDER

Feel Alone
All I do is say
I alone can be your guide

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
When I feel awake

Close your eyes
Everything I've seen
I this time I can be your mind

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
When I feel awake

Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away
Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away

Dry your eyes
Everything must change
I this time can be your life

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
When I feel awake

Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away
Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come back home

Please lay by my side
Please lay by my side
My side

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
Then I feel awake

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
This is not the same
I am not the same

Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away
Let God cry
Then I'll wash it away

This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come in two and three
This is not the same
I am not the same
I can feel you come back home

CLEAN

use me as much as you can
cause you've never been
more than a friend
cause I try and push you away
and make myself clean
and forget you hurt me

CHORUS(x2):
Clean
I don't want to be
i don't need to be
I don't wanna be

Pressure the less that I feel
the more that I heal
and put back the peices
cause you keep taking my soul
keep letting it go
your setting me free

you keep bringing me down
keep my head above ground
the ground that I lay
cause I try myself everyday
you say its ok for bringing me pain

CHORUS X2

and when I step outside this place
all I feel is empty
and when I look into your face
all I see is emptiness

CHORUS x2

BRIDGE (x4):
clean
I don't wanna be (clean!)
i don't need to be (clean!)

i don't wanna be

CRASHING

Every time that I bleed it's my affection
Every time that I come clean it's my humiliation
And everything that I say, I say to save myself
Everything that I say makes
My world come crashing down
Every time you're near me
I feel I'm crashing down
Every time that I breathe it's to keep you alive
Every time that I see it's to watch you say goodbye
No more words inside my head
To save my ass this time
No more words inside my head
When it all comes crashing down
Every time you're near me
I feel I am crashing down
I feel I am crashing
Every time I breathe I breathe for you
And every time I move I move for you
And ever time I see I see for you
And everything I do has been for you
Every time I breathe I breathe for you
And every time I see I see for you
And everything I do I do for you
And everything I do makes it
All come down
Everytime you're near me
I feel I'm crashing down

DROWNING IN IT

Verse 1
why are we here i always seem to ask myself
the question averted by the thought of someone else
and i am hopelessly done with the things i have tried to do
should i give up and let the weakness fall on me
day by day i struggle endlessly
theres nothing right
theres nothing good about this
theres nothing right
theres nothing great about this life
and i will never know how it's supposed to be
Chorus
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
i used to feel so much better then this
i should be laughing but instead i'm just a mess
its not right its not right to feel this way
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
I dont know how much I could take of this
now i feel my soul drowning in it
its not right its not right to feel this way
Verse 2
so now your gone what are we supposed to do
i told myself not to care through and through
and all this time seems so wasted
so in the end it was all for nothing
(theres nothing right) because i'm in a fake fantasy
because i am in a fake misery
theres nothing right
theres nothing good about this
theres nothing right
theres nothing great about this life
and you will always be another fake part of me
Chrous
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
i used to feel so much better then this
i should be laughing but instead i'm just a mess
its not right its not right to feel this way
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
i dont know how much i can take of this
now i feel my soul drowning in
it its not right its not right to feel this way
why do i always feel this way a
nd why do i always feel this way
and why do i always feel this way
and why do and why do and why do and why do
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
i used to feel so much better then this
i should be laughing but instead i'm just a mess
its not right its not right to feel this way
i keep fighting with the things inside my head
i dont know how much i can take of this
now i now feel my soul drowning in it
its not right its not right to feel this way
i keep fighting but drowning in it
and i keep fighting but drowning in it
and i keep fighting but dronwing in it
and i keep and i keep drowning in it

EMPTY

I look outside and see that everything is perfect
Except for me
I'll always be the one who sits and stares
And now and then you're just my friend
Someone I could talk to
And it's killing me
It's just killing me

And I
I feel so empty inside
'Cause I'm a freak in your eyes
I feel so empty inside
And it's killing me

I look outside and realize how much I'm different
You'll never see inside of me, inside just who I am
And now and then you're just my friend
Someone I could talk to
And it's killing me
It's just killing me

And I
I feel so empty inside
'Cause I'm a freak in your eyes
I feel so empty inside
And it's killing me

I'm outside but looking in

I look into your eyes and see that you are perfect
Except for me, except for me

And I
I feel so empty inside
'Cause I'm a freak in your eyes
I feel so empty inside
I feel so, I feel so
I, I feel so empty inside
I feel so empty inside
I feel so empty inside
I feel so empty inside

FACE DOWN

I sigh at the world
Because you don't seem to care
And if I grow old
Then you were never there

And yet it's hard just to find
the only way back inside
The only way I could let this go
And how could I justify
By taking what's deep inside
And lie face down
And lie face down

And if I could
Then you were so over this
And then we face its soul

I'm face down and know one knows

And if I bleed
Then I will bleed for you
And it's hard to see
To see what I see in you

And so I just realize
That everything that I fear
Is back in my face only again
So put me out on this floor
Cuz that's the way I've been
Since I lied down
Since I lied down

And if I could
Then youwere so over this
ANd then we face its soul

I'm face down and know one knows
I feel it's the same thing I've had
Since I fell here, I fear.

FAILURE

Maybe I, I didn't seem to have a thing left to say
I bottled it far away
Maybe I, I tried too hard to find someone to blame
And maybe it's me who changed
And now I'm left with nothing again

So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?

Maybe I, I didn't seem to give everything away
Not because I needed you to stay
And I, I couldn't face the fears I left far behind
I try to answer every question to why
I'm left with nothing again

So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?

Maybe you couldn't see
All the pain inside of me
And now I feel like this was all for nothing
'Cause I'm left with nothing
I'm left with nothing again
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?

So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?

So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I, if I was a failure?

FAR SIDE

I try not to hate you
Not to hate me
But it just won't go away
I see all I can see
I'm hoping for a brighter day

Watch as you go
Watch as I wave goodbye
There's no one to know me
on the far........side
I don't care about your side
You don't care about your life
I don't care about you

I try not to feel the same
Not to feel this way
A front disguise
And I see all I can see
I'm hoping for a new life

Watch as you go
Watch as I wave goodbye
There's no one to know me
on the far........side
I don't care about your side
You don't care about your life
I don't care about you

and when it's gone
I won't be there
All these things as they pass
I'll just fade away
and the time can tell me that
we're all the same

I try not to hate you
Not try to hate me
But it just won't go away
I see all I can see
I'm hoping for a brighter day

Watch as you go
Watch as I wave goodbye
There's no one to know me
on the far........side
I don't care about your side
You don't care about your life
I don't care about you

FOLD

I feel like I don't exist
I'm trying too hard just to cope with this
'Cause if it means that much
Then it means that much to me
I'm pulling your strings
But you're pulling away
Its half-past noon
Another fucking bad day
'Cause I am screaming
At the top of my lungs
If I don't get my way

You better watch your back
You better, you better

It's all the same to me
(The same to me)
I feel so incomplete
(So incomplete)
I never wanna change
But I think I'm gonna fold
It's all the same to me

I wanna let you know
Maybe I just don't wanna let you go
'Cause if it means that much
Then it means that much to me
I got a new job but my pocket is broke
I want a revolution but I just can't revolt
And there's gotta be something out there
That makes me feel this way

You better watch your back
You better, you better
You better watch your...

It's all the same to me
(The same to me)
I feel so incomplete
(So incomplete)
I never wanna change
But I think I'm gonna fold
It's all the same to me

I feel like I don't exist
I'm trying too hard just to cope with this
'Cause if it means that much
Then it means that much to me
I got a new job but my pocket is broke
I want a revolution but I just can't revolt
And there's gotta be something out there
That makes me feel this way

It's all the same to me
(The same to me)
I feel so incomplete
(So incomplete)
I never wanna change
But I think I'm gonna fold
It's all the same to me

I feel I'm gonna fold
I feel I'm gonna fold
I feel I'm gonna fold
I feel I'm gonna fold

HANDS AND KNEES

You see me walking away
What more could I say than sorry
I failed by all your complaints
You pushed a life change but it's not me
And filthy hands lay apon my chest
Lay upon my sin, but I do it for green
And in your mind you are blind
And your back turn so fine
Where were you when I needed you most

So mother so father
I'm on my hands and knees
So mother so father
I'm scrounging for what's left of me

My self-indulgence to blame
For all of the shame in the family
You don't know what it's like
How I feel how I cry
How I hate the way I hate my life

So mother so father I'm on my hands and knees
So mother so father
I'm scrounging for what's left of me

Pues madre, y padre
Esta vida no quiero vivir

So mother so father
I don't want to live this way
So mother so father
I'm scrounging for what's left of me

So mother so father
I don't want to live this way
So mother so father
I'm scrounging for what's left of me

KNOW ONE

Look back inside
Will I ever realize
That this thing
this man was me
But then I suffocate
Everything that I relate
It's not the same
Life that we knew it

I bleed my life
I shed my skin
I'm dying deep within
Cuz everything's my fault
But then I suffocate
Everything that I relate
It's all your
Life that we knew it

And here I can find out that
you're nothing better
and here I can find out that
you just don't care

Left outside
Left to dry
Don't know all the reasons why
Everything is my fault
But then I suffocate
Everything that I relate
It's not the same
Life that we knew it

And here I can find out that
you're nothing better
and here I can find out that
you just don't care

LESS OF

Less of I but more than you
I'm less of nothing again
I take my life and what I do
I feel I'm the last to be saved

What would you say
That everything here
must soon change
But you think the machine
is a man in the back of my head
All the lies, the lies can be the truth
if you just want them to be
But you'll still push me down
You just

GET BACK
Doesn't matter what I say
or how I feel
You're out of line
So just get back, get back

Let, You just can't
Let, you just can't
Let, you just can't
LET IT GO, LET IT GO

And if I see his face
And I do nothing for this
Would you think less of me
If I didn't raise my fist
All the cracks in the floor
Make this life a game
for you to push me down
For you to

GET BACK
Doesn't matter what I say
or how I feel
You're out of line
So just get back, get back

Let, You just can't
Let, You just can't
Let, you just can't
LET IT GO, LET IT GO

Try to understand
LET IT GO
Doesn't matter what I say
or how I feel
You're out of line
So just get back, get back
LET IT GO
Doesn't matter what I say
or how I feel
You're out of line
So just get back, get back

Let, You just can't
Let, You just can't
Let, You just can't
LET IT GO, LET IT GO

MAKING ME HATE YOU

Can't simplify all the things that burn inside
But when you ask, I'm fine
But I'm lying all the time
So, it's tough to say when you laugh at me this way
But in my mind
I'm crying, I'm crying all the time
So, so pick up the vide
Make me wanna justify
Every word that's coming out your mouth
No looking back
You better choose a side
I'm sinking within

You fake, you lie
You're making me hate you
You fake, you lie
You're making me want you even more

Can't see any good side of you
But I am trying, I'm trying to
I can't explain all the damage you can bring
But when I'm blind
I'm dying, I'm dying all the time
So, so pick up the vibe
Make me wanna justify
Every word that's coming out your mouth
No lookin back
All I wanna see
Is that you're sinkin within

You fake, you lie
You're making me hate you
You fake, you lie
You're making me want you even more
You fake, you lie
You're making me hate you
You fake, you lie
You're making me want you even more

Yes I will always be
Torn by what I see
Yes I will always be the same
Even though I stop thinking of you

Can't simplify all the things that burn inside
But when I try
I'm dying, I'm dying all the time

You fake, you lie
You're making me hate you
You fake, you lie
You're making me want you even more
You fake, you lie
You're making me hate you
You fake, you lie

NAIVE

Hey, man
Wanna be that guy I hate
Hey man, want to front some shit
Want to claim you're it
And be insane

It's not about you
It's about me
It's not about you
It's all about...

Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become like...
Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become Naive

Hey man, want to take my place
Want to walk in my place
and cover me
And Hey man, want to
breathe my air
Want to think it's fair that
you'll never see

It's not about you
It's all about me
It's not about you
It's all about...

Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become like...
Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become Naive

NEUROTIC

'Cause it moves, just like you
And it breaks, just like me
And it lies, just like them
And these walls are protecting me

And so the story goes
Strip down it's the same
And so the story goes
In a blink of an eye
In a blink of an eye you become history

'Cause it plays, just like you
And it fades, just like me
And it steals, just like them
It's neverending, it's neverending for me

And so the story goes
Strip down it's the same
And so the story goes
In a blink of an eye
In a blink of an eye you become history

I put my blinding faith in you
My philosophy says I should stop

And so the story goes
Strip down it's the same
And so the story goes
In a blink of an eye
In a blink of an eye you become history

NOTHING

I've got nothing left
For you to take away
I know you blame me
For every time you walked away

So what
You hate me and everything
I seem to do
So look back
Don't turn away
It was my face that you were lying to

And in my life you could find
Everything just seperates
And in my life you could find
Everything you want to take away
I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing

So what
It's not the same
Every word out of your mouth is shit
So look back
Don't turn away
I'm sick, I'm through
And I'm fed up with this

And in my life you could find
Everything just seperates
And in my life you could find
Everything you want to take away
I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing

[whispers] Please, take it all from me
[whispers] Please, take it all from me

It's all, it's all
As everything just seperates
I know, I know
You give but you take it all away

So what
You hate me and everything
I seem to do
I know you
You blame me for everytime
I walk out on you
I've got nothing

I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing

PANIC

Center is where I see myself
In the beginning I'm sitting in
The middle of a crowded Room
Nobody hears me trying to reach
Out just trying to scream out.

I'm so pathetic is how I see myself
I'm just a joke I'm running out this life
People tell me not to waste it but
How can I taste it when I never lived
When I never loved when I never lied.

I'm just a stain I'm trying to make my mark
On a spot that's been dark for a long time
Been along time since I've panicked broken down
The systematic life that god gave me.

So try to save my faith that's going out
The window that I'm looking' down from
One more step and ill be on the ground
From a sinner try and tell me I am a true
Believer well ho I never was.

You'll probably run and hide

Life reality hits me in the stomach
Aches like a fist in my mouth
I should have said nothing to make
Everything fall apart in my face
Well you're the one who's crying

So try to see the world through the
Flipside running out of line with no
Ever watching my back ah cold
Never seem to realize
I'm not your wanna be

RECKONING

What's your problem
Can I tell you
Sick inside your mind is all I see
Now you're looking to point
Your finger
Take a look at yourself
Than to point at me

Take your pride
Swallow your pride
Walk before me
Trash you will be
Life that hates you
I degrade you
Be pathetic and lie
Through your skin

I'M NOT GOD
But I can be
I'M NOT GOD
But I can be

What's your problem
Don't you like this
Don't you like this in your world
Child before you
Life before you
I'm the spine that's in your thorn

I'M NOT GOD
But I can be
I'M NOT GOD
But I can be

And I'm so over you.....

So burn

I'M NOT GOD
But I can be
I'M NOT GOD
But I can be

TEXAS

Sometimes I lie awake in bed
Thinking about the things you said
So lost for words, so lost to tell you how I feel
So terrified of changing what I thought was real

It's too bad, you're gone
It's too bad, you're not alone
And I know that you couldn't see
That it's too bad that you're gone
And not here with me

Standing here, trying to make some sense of this
There's nothing between us
Still I can feel your awkwardness
You're so lost for words
So you just tell me I'm your friend
There must be one reason
Only one reason in the end

It's too bad, you're gone
It's too bad, you're not alone
And I know that you couldn't see
That it's too bad that you're gone
And not here with me

So why are you pulling away
It must be from things that I say
And I'm thinking you're thinking of him
So why do I even care at all

USELESS

Waiting in my room
I'm lying on the bed
Cuz outside is just too cold
I turn the radio loud
So I could fall asleep
But it's all I've come to know

Push me and you
shoved like you always do
But nothing's ever the same
But how can I explain
the damage you have done
When all that's left is pain

So I tried to stay awake
And so I would try to stay awake
And so I learned

I fucking tried your way
And I don't like what I see
Cuz I've been put to the test
And faced all the rest
And useless is all I'll be
So I tried your way
And don't like what I see
And now I'm bored

Waiting in my room
I'm lying on the floor
Cuz outside I just don't know
I turn the radio loud
So I can hear me think
But it's all I've come to know

So I tried to stay awake
And so I would try to stay awake
And so I learned

I fucking tried your way
And I don't like what I see
I've been put to the test
And faced all the rest
And useless is all I'll be
So I tried your way
And don't like what I see
And now I'm bored

So I burn a part of me that slowly fades to you
but how can I plainly see what slowly fades to me

So I tried to stay awake
And so I would try to stay awake
And so I learned

I fucking tried your way
And I don't like what I see
I've been put to the test
And faced all the rest
And useless is all I'll be
So I tried your way
And don't like what I see
And now I'm bored

And now I'm bored

WATCHING ME SLIP

So I sit here alone
Trying to find my own
Way to cope with everything
That I've done wrong
So I try real hard not to see
What you've done to me
But I couldn't find my heart

And there won't be any silence till it's gone
There won't be any silence till I'm
Look away, you're watchin me as I slip away
'Cause everything I know just falls apart
Now it's me as I slip away
'Cause everything that I know just falls apart

So try real hard not to see
What you've done to me
But I couldn't find a way
Then I'll see my own (way)
To cope with everything that I've done wrong

And there won't be any silence till it's gone
There won't be any silence till I'm (gone)
Look away, you're watchin me as I slip away
'Cause everything I know just falls apart
Now it's me as I slip away
'Cause everything I know just falls and, it just, it just falls apart
'Cause I'm not enough to bring you down
I'm not enough to bring you down
I'm not enough to make you happy
I'm not enough to make you stay

WHIMPER

Closer, more than you feel
Another piece of me lashes out
When I'm losing all control
Then I see your ways
And everything that never changed
It's still in you
It's still in you

It's all this hate
I don't want this
And pain
I don't need this
And hate
I don't want this
It's not the same
Whimper with me

Too much like a bad dream
Another memory lashes out
And I'm losing all control
But then I seem to fake
Everything that once was great
Is still in me

It's all this hate
I don't want this
And pain
I don't need this
And hate
I don't want this
It's not the same
Whimper with me

So step off the line
I can see it in your face
How reality breaks
Like the fuckers with the drive-by
It's all the same thing
Everything is going to fade
Pretend to try
That you wanna be like me
If all the faces looking down
means you got none
When you think you solve
a problem you create one
So look in to find look in to find
and hate yourself

Look deep inside... yourself

Look in to find

It's all this hate
I don't want this
And pain
I don't need this
And hate
I don't want this
It's not the same
Whimper with me
