Glasgow based duo pomegranate have just released their second album ON BLACK PEAK on their own label Integral Records. Formed in 1999, composer/producer Stef McGlinchey and vocalist Vanessa Rigg actually met 3 years earlier when working on a futuristic theatre show. Stef had been asked to write the music for the show in which Vanessa performed, sang and played viola. Both were upstaged by the real star of the event...a robot in a wheelchair called Nana. When Vanessa arrived back in Glasgow after 2 years in Portugal, Stef persuaded her to sing on a couple of tracks he had recorded. And so, pomegranate was born. They released the critically acclaimed debut album THIS ILLUSION SOUND in 2000. The album's mix of melodic ambience and subtle, gritty electronica won them many admirers worldwide. (One Canadian DJ voted it his album of the year 2002). THIS ILLUSION SOUND was recently picked up by Moscow label Citadel Records. Consolidating on this success, the duo composed and recorded the set of songs which became ON BLACK PEAK in 2002-3. The album received its first release in Germany, picking up several 5-star reviews and album of the month awards. Since the completion of ON BLACK PEAK, pomegranate have been rehearsing their live show, which features keyboardist Matthew Millership as well as Vanessa and Stef. pomegranate made a highly successful live debut at Glasgow's Tramway in April 2004, and also played at Aberdeen's GoNorth Festival in June. Audience reaction has been superb.

Like Morning Rain

Nobody knows why she got carried away
She’s coming down just like the morning rain
Tying her red robe in the cold light of day
So many feelings swimming round inside

Nothing that I can do to take it away
Nothing that she can do to turn back time
Sweat of the night-time can be showered away
Not like the feelings swimming round inside

The Golden Rule

Help me come to my senses again
I’ve been creeping out I don’t remember when
Jumping up and down like a fool
Now mediocrities become the golden rule
I need a feeling like I just don’t know
Feeling like I just don’t know

Time lapse, standing at the crossroads once again
Which way lonely and I’m looking for a friend
Now everybody says it’s a fool
Who contemplates the breaking of the golden rule
I need a feeling like it’s all brand new
Feeling like it’s all brand new

Staring At The Skies

Starlight, a twinkle in your eye
Your right, I should have realised
Too late for me to compromise
Dreaming, I’m staring at the skies

Thought I wanted more than a home
Now I’m standing alone outside the safety zone

Never wanted all that you had
Now I need it so bad I can taste it
I can taste it

Starlight, a twinkle in your eye
Your right, I should have realised
Too late for me to compromise
Dreaming, I’m staring at the skies

Blue Days Fade

Weren’t you the one who said it’s over
Weren’t you the one who said it won’t be long
'Til the blue days fade
Feel the weight upon your shoulder
Like summer sun I know it won’t be long
Til the blue days fade
Til the blue days fade

All of my pain, all of my time
Offer up to you don’t ask me why
Give me an aim, give me a sign
Put my trust in you don’t ask me why

Weren’t you the one who said it’s over
Weren’t you the one who said it won’t be long
'Til the blue days fade
'Til the blue days fade
'Til the blue days fade
Blue days fade blue days fade
Blue days fade blue days fade
Blue days fade

Skips & Jumps

Society in a mess
Reflecting all the skips and the jumps in my head
Look at me, do my best
I’m doing when the doing is doing in my head

Sweet unknown, make me blessed
The distance from this place to your door is my test
Looking at me, looking at you
Looking for the missing piece of treasure that I need to be true

A little understanding
A bit of faith and all that stuff
You’ll be amazed how much it all works out

You open up your window
I’ll open up my door to you
You’ll be amazed how much it all works out
All works out

This Illusion sound

You gave me your conquered world
Thank you for the gift but I don’t need it now
It’s broken anyway
And I don’t need to play those games again

I hear the sound
O this illusion sound
I hear the sound

Say goodbye to certainty
Used to be so sure now you’re down on your knee
If you need some advice I’m the one to ask
If you need some advice…

I hear the sound
O this illusion sound
I hear the sound

Nobody knows why she got carried away
She’s coming down just like the morning rain
Tying her red robe in the cold light of day
So many feelings swimming round inside

Nothing that I can do to take it away
Nothing that she can do to turn back time
Sweat of the night-time can be showered away
Not like the feelings swimming round inside

The prize

Did you say
All that you meant to say
Wait no longer for the prize

Wait so long
For the medicine in a song
Wait no longer for the prize

On this day
Problems will fade away
I’ll wait no longer for the prize

Did you face
The things that you meant to face
Wait no longer
Wait no longer

Hold on
Money won’t mean a thing
Hold on
Love before anything

Hold on
Money won’t mean a thing
Hold on
Love before anything

Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

Ljl

Nothing ever happens
No one else could care
It all goes on anyway
These peoples needs ain’t fair
Makes what we’re doing
Feel like unfair
We’ve come a long, long, long way
We will get our share

Inside out and upside down
Inside out and upside down

Sickly green and yellow
Lemon juice and lime
We’ll hold a mirror to your face
To reflect back your crime
You will not deprive us
Of a nickel or a dime
You can shout out all you want
We don’t have the time

Inside out and upside down
Inside out and upside down

Nothing ever happens
No one else could care
It all goes on anyway
These peoples needs ain’t fair
You will not deprive us
Of a nickel or a dime
You can shout out all you want
We don’t have the time

Inside out and upside down
Inside out and upside down

Candy Bliss

Did you see me wasting so much time on candy bliss?
Please believe me I would give it all up for your kiss

Can deliver but I don’t know where you’re living any more
Feel so close and then I feel so far away from your door

If you leave me wasting so much time on candy bliss
Please believe me there’s so much about you I would miss

Can deliver but I don’t know where you’re living any more
Feel so close and then I feel so far away from your door

If you could take me dead or alive
If you could make this feeling subside
If you could take me dead or alive
Dead or alive

Can deliver but I don’t know where you’re living any more
Feel so close and then I feel so far away from your door

If you could take me dead or alive
If you could make this feeling subside
If you could take me dead or alive
Dead or alive

Half-life

Craved somebody to save me from my loneliness
Sending signals, putting out an SOS
Half a life, yet somehow in a total mess
Out of nowhere, suddenly completeness

Never bad things she said
Only good things, good things
You won’t use me, will you use me?
No I won’t, but I know that everybody uses everybody sometimes

Add a string, a string to your bow
Add a string, add a string
Add a string, a string to your bow

Gift of hindsight, I acted like a fool I guess
A fool for love, I still believe that love is blessed
Too much distance, it proved too soon for such a test
Half again, your words resound in emptiness

Don’t forget me, I won’t let you
But I know that everybody forgets everybody sometimes

Add a string, a string to your bow
Add a string, add a string
Add a string, a string to your bow

Never bad things she said
Only good things, good things

Big Change

Big change
In the weather
A bit strange
How we came together

You walk along an empty street
Never know who you might meet
Some people come and people go
Can’t always say
I don’t want to know you
I don’t want to know you

Big change
In the weather
Gets late
It’s now or never

Communications gone astray
Can’t think of a word to say
Are we too shy or is it fear
That stops our mouths when we get near to each other
When we get near emotion

Big change
In the weather
What’s changed
Since we came together
Big change
In the weather
A bit strange
How we came together
Big change
In the weather
Big change
In the weather

Lonely River Ride

What does he want from me?
He says he’s just a man
He says he hasn’t got a plan
And that I should not try to understand

What does he want from me?
See how the rains come down
The voice of reason has been drowned
And now my world is turning upside down

I’ve been far away and gone so long
This lonely river flows so strong
I’ve been swimming out against the tide
On this lonely river ride

What does he want from me?
He says he’s just a man
He says he hasn’t got a plan
And that I should not try to understand

Crazy The Teardrop

Is it the world or is it me?
I hardly slept a wink all night
Take the sweet bird from my room
So tired of trying to work it out

Maybe when I find space to breathe
I will recall the way I felt for you
Crazy the memory
Crazy desire
Crazy the teardrop as it falls

Wrapping me up in my cocoon
It’s lovely and it’s warm in here
Only wake me if there’s news
I’ll see your face when I get out

Maybe when I find space to breathe
I will recall the way I felt for you
Crazy the memory
Crazy desire
Crazy the teardrop as it falls
Crazy the memory
Crazy desire
Crazy the teardrop as it falls

O Why Cry

Everybody knows there’s an opening
There’s a silver ring
And everybody’s even
Everybody knows there’s an open door
There’s a running sore
And everybody’s leaving

Everybody’s seizing on what everybody’s got
And everybody’s leaving such a lot
And everybody’s wasting time and everybody knows
That everybody’s wasting such a lot

Everybody knows there’s a hungering
There’s a famine thing
As long as it’s not me then
Everybody knows there’s a lack of space
In the human race
But knowing ain’t believing

Everybody’s seizing on what everybody’s got
And everybody’s leaving such a lot
And everybody’s wasting time and everybody knows
That everybody’s wasting such a lot

Underneath the mattress lies the fear of being alone
Sleeping with a stranger and a broken mobile phone
Underneath the bedclothes lies the fear of being alive
And o why cry?

Heart Houdini

Each and every lover
You have ever known
Gather all together
Listen carefully
Now you might hear them say

Don’t chain your heart this way
It’s not so bad we said goodbye

Red Bricks

I look out
Out of my window
I look out
Out at the scene
I look out
Out at the red bricks
I look out

And I wonder, wonder
O how I wonder
Yes I wonder, wonder
What do I see
And I wonder, wonder
O how I wonder
Yes I wonder, wonder
What does it mean

I wonder what distinguishes me
I wonder about the things that I see
I wonder what distinguishes you
From me, from me
What distinguishes you from me

I look out
Out of my window
I look out
Out at the scene
I look out
Out at the big trees
I look out

And I wonder, wonder
O how I wonder
Yes I wonder, wonder
What do I see
And I wonder, wonder
O how I wonder
Yes I wonder, wonder
What does it mean

Had a look around the corner
Did I see you there
You say that no-one's listening
But I don't care
Put the book upon the table
And pull up a chair
Now comes the inspiration
Now comes the inspiration

Beauty and Pity

Same old town
Look for the beauty you said
Is all around
In this town
I'm looking hard for something
In the faces
Of all the people I see
In their places
Beauty and pity they meet

You
Try hard to merge into you
Why can't we stop being two
I want to merge into you

Same old town
Look for the pity you said
Is all around
In this town
Sadness incorporated
In the faces
Of all the people I see
In their places
Beauty and pity they meet

You
Try hard to merge into you
Why can't we stop being two
I want to merge into you

Don't stop looking for beauty and pity you said
You said

Live Inside Of You

Slipped inside
Remember how it slipped inside
More I cried
I'm shaking like a leaf

Smile so wide
I want to kiss your smile so wide
More I cried
I'm aching for relief

Mother don't you read this
Read this read this
Mother don't you read this?

I
Want to live inside
Want to come alive
Want to live inside with you
I
Want to live inside
Want to come alive
Want to live inside of you

In the city of dreams

In the city of dreams

This town is on my shoes
Getting down, small city blues
why can't you offer something new
You've changed and I don't think it's good

This town is on my shoes
Narrow sound, small mind abuse
why can't you offer something new
You've changed and I don't think it's good

There was a day
Or was it just a dream
I woke up
The whole city bleeded
The grass was silver
The sky was greed
I woke up
In the city of dreams

This town is on my shoes
Getting down, small city blues
Why can't you offer something new
You've changed and I don't think it's good

I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good

I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good
I don't think it's good

*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***

High Mountain Snow

Oh my love is like the snow
On the highest mountain known
Waiting for the sun to come
And bring her freedom

So there's nothing more to do
There's nothing left to say
Waiting for the son to come
And bring her freedom

Jackson

Devils
Got hold of me
Devils
Wont let me breathe

If I were called Jackson
What would I do
If I were called Jackson
What would I say

Devils
Please set me free
Devils
Please let me breathe

If I were called Jackson
What would I see
If I were called Jackson
What would I be
If I were called Jackson
What would I do
If I were called Jackson

Who would be my friend
Til the bitter end
And make me see
Who would feel my skin
Who would take me in
If you were me

Your beauty awakes
Don't fail to face the fakes
Is something wrong with you

Your jewel of innocence
Both ancient and intense
Say little prayers for peace

May I please walk with you
May I please talk with you

When you walk through the gate
Abandon to your fate
Then you shall be released

There's something I must do
Communicate with you
How much this means to me
Undercover saint

May I please walk with you
May I please talk with you

So Heavenly

As life goes on
I will not run
With no race to lose
The better to use my time with you

Some lives stand still
They've had their fill
With no-one to please
And nothing to live up to

See how they run
Underneath a sombre sun
With nothing to give
Nothing to take away

As life goes on
I will not run
There's no place like home
And nowhere I'd rather be than here

Without a friend
I know it must be cold
Around the bend
Whatever happens
You are so heavenly
Whatever happens
You are so heavenly

See how they run
Underneath a sombre sun

Nests

It's time to put the child to bed
To dream of all the things we said
Birds have flown to their nests
We're alone once again

How deep the chasm to explore
Pour out the love that we have stored
Spark the fire one more time
Re-invent, re-align

Idreamasound

Deep in the rich vein of night
I dream a sound
I dream a word
As the wind in the trees
Blows all around

Some may dream of a midsummer's night
Or the sea with its horses so white
I dream a sound

Deep in the rich vein of night
I dream a sound
I dream a word
I dream a sound

Read me like
An open book
My every word
My every hook
Read me like
An open book
My every sound
My every mute
