Tonight, I hold the world tight Halloween night I see your blackened eyes, your petrol eyes And for the first time, it's gonna be the last time I see you in pale moon light, The children are politicized We pray to Ché Guevara, I'll talk to you tomorrow Because no one ever loves you when sigh, You take the hand and I follow To the Lights of Coma Liath To the Lights of Coma Liath I am running with the spirits To the lights of Coma Liath To the lights of Coma Liath To the lights of Coma Liath I am crossing to your world Into the lights of Coma Liath Tonight, we light the bonfires Of family ghosts You missed the fireworks, the screamers cried And for the first time, its gonna be the last time I see you in the half light, I'll meet you in the Halcyon We pray to Ché Guevara, I'll talk to you tomorrow Because no one ever loves you when you sigh You bite the hand and I'll follow To the Lights of Coma Liath To the Lights of Coma Liath I am running with the spirits To the lights of Coma Liath To the lights of Coma Liath To the lights of Coma Liath I am crossing to your world Into the lights of Coma Liath

about

Irish multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, Seán Ó Corcoráin, better known as Outsider returns with the 3-song EP 'Samhain Soon'. Known for weaving esoteric imagery into anthemic post-punk, the release follows up his debut album 'Karma of Youth'.

Taking its name from Samhain, the pagan festival that was the original Halloween, these new songs draw inspiration from Outsider’s childhood. Growing up politicized during the troubles in Ireland he grew up in a generation who were conditioned to hate the British Empire in rural Ireland, not to be confused with Dublin.

"These are strange love songs," states Outsider, with the release telling the story of two star crossed teenagers who are being abused at home, set in the early 1980's. They find a deep spiritual connection through the powers of Halloween night when the gate between worlds is thin ("Samhain Soon (Halloween Song)"), and draw upon the powers of the zodiac in an attempt to leave their physical forms behind ("Last Star").
