  • SaD - Raining Pleasure, The Room Spray

    SaD: The Room Spray is an arrangement of heavy and light scent notes - deep and moody base notes of frankincense and vetiver are balanced by the delicate sweetness of peru balsam and mildly herbaceous hints of juniper. The creation of natural perfumer Daphne Camf, the room spray was designed as the olfactory counterpart to the auditory - amalgamating the power of both scent and sound to capture memories, emotions, and moments in time. As well as scenting and grounding one’s space, the spray can also be used as a body spray.

    Ingredients: alcohol, distilled water, essential oils of vetiver, frankincense, peru balsam and juniper berry

To Know You 03:46
I won’t go inland and I won’t sail the seas I will not go with you into your night only trace the outline of your plight only trace the outline of your plight Love…and its lifespan of a mouse Je veux te connaitre - you go against your nature Je veux te connaitre - but I read there’s no such thing as one’s nature Je veux te connaitre - tender heart becomes tender prey Je veux te connaitre - I’m on my own again Je veux te connaitre - I’m like a shitstain on your memories Je veux te connaitre - all smeared upon your inner peace

I think of what I’ve become and I try to forget what I’ve done but I know that it’s only a dream things are never as bad as they seem I burned the soles of my feet running out of those halls of defeat though my skin bears the scars of that year I now walk with a strength I don’t fear I raise my hands to the sky and I ask that you feel with one eye so that you can believe what I see and bear witness to pain I don’t feel I think about you so much and I long for your spellbinding touch 'cos it’s good to feel love is returned and it’s good to know love is confirmed

Don't Go 04:39
You know I always cry, at the smallest slight, but I never said go. Don’t go. No enmity in hindsight, like ships in the night, just relief at the morning light. Don’t go. I know you’ll go. Don’t go. Illusions shed like skin, forgetting where yours end and mine begin. And still you go, I don’t want you to go. I forgot I was frail, I forgot I was finite, I forgot I was fallible, with a tendency to fail. Don’t go. Don’t go. Inspired by my aversions, the chorus has spoken, they told me to go. Don’t go. I know you’ll go. Don’t go. I said don’t go. Don’t go. Don’t go.

Look into your eyes and I remember when you were my heart’s delight Put my soul at ease when you put your cool hand on my burning mind Trying to be wise as serpents Harmless as doves We questioned the material world Saturn rules the material world Wish I could forget the night you had to watch me for signs of life Started when I was young wanted to see how far I could take that ride I sent her over to whisper in your ear You know you want her Succubus sighing in your ear You know you want her And I thought I made you glad Still getting used to being wrong And yeah I’m doing better Living better all the time Got the fundamental questions to my existence Answered in time While you’re living for your road of excess Got some more years of that left Trying to be wise as serpents Harmless as doves You’re deep in your solipsism It’s where you find your meaning You gave me shelter Shelter from my own storm I thought we had the answer Pity you got no questions anymore

Still Alive 03:28
My friends, they tried to intervene but I was never so good at staying alive spending half my life screaming save my life please save my life And if you say you’ll take me back I promise to try harder and look good while I try I promise to be better And if you say you’ll take me back no fussing or complaining no taking too much time get better at disappearing And if you say you’ll take me back I promise I won’t cry when you don’t come home for days don’t come home for days don’t come home for days don’t come home for days don’t come home don’t come home Love to me feels like it’s in between pain and pleasure, at your leisure waiting by the phone wondering if you’re alive even if you’re not I’ll be by your side Love to me feels like it’s in between pain and pleasure, at your leisure waiting by the phone wondering if you’re alive even if you’re not I’ll be by your side

Didn’t know what I was fighting for Pick myself up off the bathroom floor You know I’m only human I got my regrets I try to forget And in my radical self-acceptance I’m grateful for the heartache And I was always true to you When our legs made a sign like a crucifix And I was true, and I was true Can’t say the same for you And I was true, and I was true Burned by the torch I held for you The seasons turned And you returned Parting a crowd like the Son of Man The seasons turned And you returned The verses we wrote Held high in your hand In denial, in denial My favourite way to love In denial, in denial My favourite way to make love In denial, in denial Waiting for a sign from above In denial, in denial Gazing at a picture of you as a child In denial, in denial Why don’t you come inside for awhile?

about

‘Saturn Rules The Material World’ is the debut album from Melbourne duo SaD. A dreamy collection of call-and-response arrangements; Camf’s lyrics and vocal delivery paint a landscape of heartache, despair, and longing for self-redemption, offset by moments of resigned acceptance and a sense of surrender to an inescapably painful life path. Castricum’s chorus/reverb drenched guitar leads and pumping big-beat and bass rhythms ground the record as instantly danceable. It features the new single ‘Sign From Above’, as well as their singles ‘The Poets of Antiquity’, ‘Don’t Go’ and a cover of The Triffids’ classic ‘Raining Pleasure’. ‘Saturn Rules The Material World’ is available through BandCamp and streams digitally from September 25 on Trans-Brunswick Express.

Of the album Daphne Says:
“‘Saturn Rules The Material World’ was written relatively quickly and intuitively between Simona and I capturing a reflective period where we both took to the task of doing what artists can always be relied on to do - turning pain into cathartic beauty."
