Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

Still love all that old stuff... certainly not as good as the Mk II music, but for an 80s synth band - they were quite brilliant.

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

lyrics found and upped

i've just found a stash of lyrics in a folder of Underworld / Freur stuff that i never knew i had - these 20 lyric sheets were hand typed by Karl Hyde and sent to a fan who was in contact with him, these were along with a load other stuff i acquired and just found them today and have upped them to share with you

most of the lyrics are recognizable but i didn't have time to identify them so i would welcome any help if they are from normal Underworld songs...

take a look and let me know

these are written (by typewriter / word processor) from the hands of god (Karl) and are pretty unique insights....

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

Thank you for sharing all of this, especially the letters and lyrics.


I wonder if Karl & company are enjoying these as much as we are.

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

I glanced over the lyrics quickly and noticed some for the recently surfaced song "Big Meat Show". I wonder how many other unreleased mk1/Lemon Interupt/mk2 works there are floating around that contain some of the unknown lyrics big screen satellite posted. Or maybe these were just lost to time and were never used. It would be pretty cool if they were incorporated into a new song, going on 20 years later.

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

well i hope he doesn't mind me digging up the past...

nothing i have posted is anything more than what they / he did with 'the band' and what happened surrounding Freur & Underworld... most 'historical bits' are already in the public domain anyway, its just the non published 'interesting bits' that are pretty relevant - especially these Lyric gems!!! (which i totally stumbled upon behind a set of other stuff)

anyway, most of what remains are official magazine articles etc, but there is a lot to scan and up to flickr....

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

Thank you again

Re: Freur & Underworld mk I - from the Band
 

It'd probably be more accurate to call them Karl's writings, rather than lyrics. And of course, lyrics are drawn from his writings. But there's so much here that have never been lyrics and were probably never intended to be lyrics. And parts where sections of his writings were taken to be lyrics, but other parts were left behind.

yep i suspect you are right, these are the kind of words that appeared in books like skyscraper,


lyrics, poetry, writings whatever - its gold !!!
