asheville99 I Ya Toyah is a force of nature ;I was fortunate to see her perform in Kansas City. The vocals on this are amazing .Her music is a surreal landscape;that takes me into depth and layers of sound,and emotion.It’s surreal painting done with music and brilliance. It is wonderful and inspiring to see women like this making industrial music. Favorite track: Code Blue.

jared this album really came out of nowhere for me, and surprised me. the most striking thing is i ya toyah's very strong vocals, reminding me of le destroy or kriistal ann. this is a powerful album filled with moody darkwave tunes and some synth punk bangers. highly recommended! Favorite track: Code Blue.

Code Blue 04:02
Don't make me feel the pain Don't make me feel the rain No more My world is not the same Love and hate became Meaningless What is real….isn't here Code blue Don't save me Code blue Let me go Code blue Please remember Remember when I told you so This shadow grew Beyond my fear Desire to go Is under my skin Real love Real love Real love ……. Code blue Don't save me Code blue Let me go Code blue Please remember Remember when I told you so I feel alive Against my will Last touch of you On my hungry skin Real love Real love Real Love….

Rebel 04:00
I am falling Somebody catch me catch me I am falling Somebody catch me catch me I am falling Somebody catch me catch me I am falling Doooown Fire Takes it all Fire, fire Breaks my fall It’s time to Watch it burn Feel it linger In your brain Rebel!Rebel! Can you rebel! ...with me? I am drowning Somebody get me get me I am drowning Somebody get me get me Out of sea of human heads Out of the cycle bearing more regrets I am falling, in unstoppable weightless fall Fire Takes it all Fire, fire Breaks my fall It’s time to Watch it burn Feel it linger In your brain Rebel!Rebel! Can you rebel! ...with me?

Flashback 03:31
Help me, please Help me forget Erase this picture From my head All I ever wanted Was to leave it all behind This paralyzing feeling In my heart… But everything looks so familiar Everything looks so…. Tell me It is just a bad dream I wanna wake up I need to wake up Why does it feel like home I’ve been to this place before I remember back in the day Run, girl, run, run, run, run away Everything looks so familiar Everything looks so familiar Everything looks so familiar Everything looks so familiar….. I need breakaway From thoughts that travel through me Essence is on the surface It’s taking over me These voices sip from my veins Whisper in my head All I hear is them say Run, girl, run, run, run… Away.

Motion 03:14
What Does it take To make you Satisfied What Do you want from me What Do I need to sacrifice Oh yeah…. I don't wanna be in this motion! Oh yeah! I close my eyes to switch the realities I dreamed my destiny And let the dark take over me It asked: Are you gonna be a victim, or a shallow clone? Are you ready for a change Ready to lose it all Oh yeah! I don't wanna be In this motion! Yeah! I close my eyes To switch the realities Oh yeah... I don't wanna be In this motion! Oh yeah! I just wanna Make it go away! This motion this motion, this motion I can’t stop This motion, this motion Is all I got Is it gonna be like this Forever?????? Oh yeah! AAAAAAA! I don't wanna be In this motion! Yeah! I close my eyes Switch the realities Oh yeah… I don't wanna be In this motion! Yeah! I just wanna Make it go away!

Nienawisc jest trwalsza niz niechec. Tlum jest slaby, leniwy I tchorzliwy. A im wieksza ta masa, Tym bardziej trzeba Obnizyc poziom. Rozroznienie pomiedzy Prawda i falszem juz nie Ma przy tym znaczenia. Wazna jest jedynie Czestotliwosc Powtarzania klamstw. I was told to obey, and to follow the routed way To stay out of the fire that to me felt like summer rain I was picture in frame Pawn in the game Landscape for seeding discomfort and Settling disarray Give me more lies For my eyes I never knew The power of superior immunity I never knew Extend of Illusion of unity I am through it all now I see it all! Throw me the ball I refuse to roll Why don’t you fool me, fool me, why don’t you all Give me more lies For my eyes

Puppet 04:05
I play god You're in my pocket I pull the strings And you are my puppet Move baby move Do as I say I take a pleasure In watching you obey I waited for someone like you Forever trying to Breathe in the fate, unwind To learn, to learn, to learn You’re not allowed I play god you're in my pocket I pull the strings And you are my puppet Move baby move Do as I say I take a pleasure In watching you obey, obey Another, another seal On your heart Can you feel it???? You lost your mind Your blood For somebody You made up I play god you're in my pocket I pull the strings And you are my puppet Move baby move Do as I say I take a pleasure In watching you obey...

I asked you to stay But you turned away Bitter farewell It feels like it happened only yesterday Ooooooaaaa... Life Is just a fantasy Tale Of mortality I challenge it Every possible way There is no tomorrow and no yesterday Oooooaaaa... And I am just lookin, look into my eyes To see And I’m just lookin, look into my eyes Mortality And I’m just lookin, look into my eyes To realize And I’m just lookin, look into my eyes I have no chance These mirrors don’t lie... I only look one way There’s no tomorrow No yesterday Illusion feeds my mortality I’ll live up to insanity The meaning of it all The tale of life challenge of it all Your egocentric self Always in control There is no tomorrow No yesterday for sure These mirrors won't lie…..

Glass Eyes 03:18
Wake, Wake up Fragments of reality …. Tearing up, breaking up Destruction of your soft side The rush is calling Poison glowing Glass eyes, glass eyes, glass eyes We play, we chose the game We roll, the dice is in play If I’m not here this is the pass Glass eyes, glass eyes, glass eyes I’m staring at you I can’t see through I’m staring at you I can’t see you… Blinders on! Hide away…. Wake up! Fragments of reality Wake up! Shut up, shut up, shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!!!! All the pieces together Like a chain reaction One step without the other I never took an action I’m the wiggling finger Now pointing at you You can see it too! In my glass eyes, glass eyes Blinders on! Hide away…. Wake up! Fragments of reality Wake up! Shut up, shut up, shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!!!! I’m on your side, devil Why do you argue that? I’m flesh and bones, devil For you to pick at Blinders on! Hide away…. Wake up! Fragments of reality Wake up! Shut up, shut up, shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!!!!

Time Machine 04:16
If I were you And you were me Would you believe The things I see Time is all I have Time is all I crave The clocks are tick tocking As we are sleepwalking Into the end of all That we we were living for For…... If I were you And you were me Would you forget The way we used to be When far is too far And long is too long And the closer you are The more I wish you were gone The clocks are tick tocking As we are sleepwalking Into the end of all That we we were living for Gravity If frozen in between You and I, you and I, you and I We need a time machine... If I were you And you were me Would you believe The things I see Time is all I have Time is all I crave The clocks are tick tocking As we are sleepwalking Into the end of all That we we were living for Gravity If frozen in between You and I, you and I, you and I We need a time machine…

Velvet Sky 03:16
You want it, you take it You fake it, you break it They say, they say, they say…….. You only know about me What you wanna learn about me And you are curious In all the wrong directions You dig under my skin Near the bone and into the bloodstream But too near is too far So buckle up if you wanna try You want it, you take it You fake it, you break it They say, they say, they say…….. Here comes the consequence Say goodbye to innocence Reality spills the blood Little by little, drop by drop And let’s be equal in transparency Create some sort of democracy If only such thing existed But who knows, baby I’m twisted!!! You want it, you take it You fake it, you break it They say, they say, they say…….. Velvet sky is falling down, Velvet sky is falling down, Velvet sky is falling down On me…….

about

Code Blue takes you on an intimate journey through the chapters of inner darkness and struggle, caused by social distortions, depression and suicidal nature. Consisting of ten tracks, debut album reflects the story that is deeply personal, revealing the residue of tragedies that touched I Ya Toyah in her own life. It features the untamed mix of haunted and powerful vocals, electronic, groovy beats and powerful synths combined with
hypnotizing guitars that give the feel of dark, surreal and mysterious atmosphere. Enjoy!
