Tired of all this crawling around
Realising the joke was on us
Reaching out to the obvious
Starting with an answer not a question
Our most acceptable businesses
All aligned in just one direction
Organised on the same lines
With one face - one side
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up
Back at the all night party
We're getting clearer all the time
Refined to one shape - frozen like crystal
It has the symmetry of perfect design
One line leads to another
They cross at the corners run straight at the sides
It reads the same way in any direction
Two red circles and a thick black spine
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up
Let it fall into place we could tie it to a tree
We could point it at you we could make it a habit
We could leave it outside or we could give it our food
Understand it or we could ignore it
Holding all our past in the one hand
We showed those people in a way they understand
Shiny little eyes on a big red bus
The ones we point at work for us
One sharp point between distinction
Going this way for X amount of time
Frame - line - and convergence
From the first to the final
This intention is mine
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
We got all lined up
All lined up
All lined up
(repeat chorus)

Hoping to hear some more Shreikback - maybe some Nemesis??
So much chair dancing happening here! 
Love this band. Thanks for playing William & Company.

Saw Shriekback in Vancouver in 86 at the Commodore and it was regarded as one of the top shows of the decade. And as far as the comments suggesting that the 80's was a decade of terrible music then you must have only been watching or listening to MTV and lousy radio because there was an explosion of bands putting out great and many times adventurous music including Simple Minds, Shriekback, XTC, Japan, Wire, Cocteau Twins, Talking Heads, Police, King Crimson, Prefab Sprout, Robin Hitchcock, The Clash, Lloyd Cole, Husker Du, The Replacements, The Stranglers, The The, Level 42, Talk Talk, Kate Bush, Jane Siberry, Sinead O'Connor and many others that I'm sure folks can add to the list. Lots of great writers. players and singers.

Recently watched Manhunter (1986) for the first time and was pleased to find that there were a few Shriekback songs on the soundtrack.

Has scared the shit out of me every time I've heard this song since hearing it for the first time one cold winter evening a million years ago. "Frozen like crystal." Brrr

Awesome bass work!
Loved this era with the rocking bass.
song is very bad for work production!
Slapadabass!
Always wanted to fall in love with Shriekback. Kinda. And maybe I once did, for about a half hour or so. Once. Then I'd hear this song of theirs and move, rapidly, on.
Solid, wild grooves in this cool rocking gem! Dave Allen is bassically insane! Makes me wanna dig out all my old Gang of Four records and ROCK THE FREAKIN' HOOD!

This track is good but My Spine Is The Bassline is better
Love love love this group. Not everyone's taste but some songs that make you want to get out there and move/dance without it sounding disco-y or ordinary.
This is who Modest Mouse sounds like.

Wow. That's quite an indictment. I remember the 80s as the decade of R.E.M., B52s, U2, Bruce, Lets Active, Tommy Keene, Stevie Ray, Split Enz, a whole truckload of British synth bands, Rockpile, The Cure, Mellencamp, Joe Jackson, ZZ Top, The Cars, The Go-Gos, and so on. It's easy to dismiss entire decades—as the 80s did the 70s—because of changes in the evolution of rock'n'roll, but it's still rock'n'roll, and that's what's important. Seek out the good. I know it's a lot more work, and not as easy as a blanket put down, but in the end IMHO, it's vastly more rewarding.

Solid confirmation that the 80's were a WASTELAND for rock and roll music. What caused it? The prevalence of powdered cocaine? The predominance of disco music? The gotterdammerung of the sexual revolution? Ronald Regan? All of these influences seem equally mind-rotting, but its hard to put a finger on...

I remember the 80s. music was mainly crap. anyway, remember Nemesis by these guys, that was quite good - this song is not.

Reminds me of all the '80's vinyl stored up at my family's cottage. I miss it. Unfortunately I've been seduced by the MP3 ease of holding 2500 songs in the palm of your hand.
this ain't no disco!! this ain't no fooling around!!
Disco time. I like it.
memories... Seaside festival belgium '84 - 5000 + people dancing. What a feeling :)
Great 80s track!
Dave Allen was a friend of a friend so used to hang out in the early 80's - pre-kids and all that sort of stuff.... cool guy and a great band!
This brings back memories of dance clubs and the 80's and it still sounds good!
80s bass and synth always sounds like a cartoon character riding a pogo stick.
Boing boing boing boing boing
Boing boing boing boing boing
Shriekback is back again....with a critically praised new album (well, in 2010). they are so cool still.
Wow I forgot about this band! Spent many Friday nights dancing in University pubs to this kind of music! This song stands the test of time, thanks for playing it Bill!
What a gem from almost 30 years ago,wow!

Back at the all night party
We're getting clearer all the time
Refined to one shape - frozen like crystal
It has the symmetry of perfect design
One line leads to another
They cross at the corners run straight at the sides
It reads the same way in any direction
Two red circles and a thick black spine

Great stuff. I had forgotten all about it til the first bar... this was a chill tune and still is.
The pity is that popping and slapping, so prevalent in the '80s, seems to have become a lost art.

I was in mid-sentence when this came on; I started dancing instantaneously, and forgot what I'd been saying.

I was totally into my NaNoWriMo, and this song came on and I had to pull up the shutters and yell WTF? In a good way. They switched my focus, which was a good thing. I think "Shriekback" is too difficult to remember or spell, but I'll make the effort, because they apparently appeal to my muse (the little bastard - if I didn't need him, I'd feed him to the fish.)
Guh - shutting up now.

Oh yeah, lovely to hear Shriekback again...
Superb gritty bass line. Can't sit still on this one.
The joys of RP.
