Kupietz Would sit quite congenially on my shelf beside my Klaatu and Ozric Tentacles albums, if it could sit on a shelf. I think even my Camel CDs would glance over at this one with affection. Are we sure that David Sylvian or Adrian Belew or Bill Bruford or someone else Fripp-adjacent didn't have anything to do with this? Favorite track: A Place To Call Home.

Burn Into The Sun As we burn into the sun The laws of nature and the world Have come undone We find humanity Ignoring what has come The bonds that hold us tight are broken As we burn into the sun The heat is rising In the barrel of a gun Nobody acting like The battle isn’t won The apathy of words unspoken Burn into the sun As we burn into the sun The panic builds Inside of each and every one We dream of days That long ago have come and gone But somehow we still put our hope in What our history has taught That when there’s profit In the battles to be fought The ones with money and control Come out on top But not this time The beast has woken Burn into the sun (In our suicidal racing To the bottom of the well It would seem the road we’re taking Is the road that leads to hell Will our children have a future Will they look back on the past At the leaders living here and now Who choose a darker path In their bargain with the devil They have clearly chosen sides Knowing that the road to power Is to shower us with lies How can truth become our savior When there is no truth at all Cause a world without concensus Is a world about to fall) Burn Burn into the sun © 2023 Romero/Bonino

Evil Never Sleeps If we could only find a better way To live together every single day The world that we’d create Could be a paradise Or we could simply choose to fade away Every time we choose the path to fall I can hear the Devil’s fiery call Temptation, creation of all that brings us down The gates of hell are open to us now Save yourself from evil Get up off your knees Save yourself from evil Cause evil never sleeps Please try to stay awake Cause every day we do it wrong could be our last mistake Confusion, illusion, the lies we think are true Perverting what was once the best of me and you So now it’s time for us to find a way To keep the demon seed inside at bay The world that we create could be a paradise So let’s choose not to simply fade away Save yourself from evil You sow what you reap Save yourself from evil Cause evil never sleeps © 2023 – Romero/Bonino

A Place To Call Home Is home a place Or who you love Or want to spend time with? Is home a world A landmark In infinity to guide us? Could our home be A transient thing A temporary stop? Maybe we’re only passing through Until the bottom drops Out of the blue Into nothing, the void from whence we came Time will undo All The bonds that hold us To this place Our world’s an oasis In a vast oblivion Whose truths are as yet unknown Someday we’ll be one Of many alien cultures Looking for a place to call home And as we go Star wandering through the emptiness of space We will become Something better Than what was the human race We will be multi-planetary Citizens of life We will be stronger, smarter, Faster If we’re to survive And when we learn That we never, ever truly were alone We will become part of something So much bigger than we’ve known The earth is a such a beautiful Yet changing planet We may not be on it for long In the future we will join Our distant cousins Looking for a place to call home (Earth is our home It’s where we live, Where we love, Where we grow. But as time passes The Earth will become Inhospitable to mankind And we’ll have to find a new home) © 2023 Romero/Confer/Bonino

Light Bearing Creatures Who stops the darkness When the darkness comes (Special people) When the darkness comes Who brings the sunshine When the teardrops fall (Special people) When the teardrops fall Light bearing creatures Light bearing creatures They’re all around us Lighting the darkness Light bearing creatures Light bearing creatures Lifting us up They make the world go round Darkness surrounds us Who will light the way (Special people) Who’ll turn the clouds away © 2023 – Romero/Bonino

Flow 06:17
Flow Don’t row against the tide Flow Don’t fight the joy inside Flow We’re just going for the ride Of our lives through the universe wondrin’ What it’s all about Flow It seems the harder we try The more that we fight The deeper we fall into the quicksand Flow I know it’s hard To play the game To be a soul survivor Flow You know the sun Follows the rain Troubles will soon be over Flow It’s just the way of the world The things we want The things we do and don’t do Flow Feels like the harder we try It slips away Just like sand through the hourglass Flow Love is the name of the game That we oughta be playin’ Peace is the end of the pain It’s the word that I’m sayin’ Love, love, love, love, love © Romero/Schindler/Bonino

The Very First Band In Space Got the call To play aboard The Megadome Its maiden voyage We would soon be rocking On a hotel Floating in the darkness. The very first band in space Staring out At the stars Enveloped in a state of grace Being one With the sun The very first band in space Holding on To the moment Living in a state of grace Who could dream Such a dream? Now that we are under way Our song list feels a little brighter Every single note we play Is like the first time Only better Now we’ve reached the curtain call The people danced And some were floating We’ll never feel this high again I wish tonight Was never ending. © Romero/Bonino

Mean 04:06
Mean Buried in the dirt Down beneath the hurt I have nightmares of their anger Every muscle torn Every fear reborn Every day a rerun of rancor Find myself alone in the gutter Alone with my primal scream Blame it all on dear father and mother They treated me Mean Why did you have me Only to hurt me? Mean You broke my life Now you’ll face my primal scream Lurking in the dark Evil in the park Fend me off with holy water All I’ve ever known Lessons learned at home Memories of innocent slaughter Find myself alone in the gutter Alone with my primal scream Blame it all on dear father and mother They treated me Mean Why did you have me Only to hurt me? Mean You broke my life Now you face my primal scream Why did you beat me, bruise me, desert me? © 2023 Romero/Bonino

Slow Burn 05:13
Slow Burn In the old world We would learn From our mistakes In this cold world We have earned Our bitter fate In the old world We were on our way In the old world To a better day Now this cold world Slowly takes away What makes us human We have to fight against This cold, cold world Yes We can save us Yes We can win Yes We can turn the tide That wants to do us in Yes We can look back At where we’ve been And change the road we’re on Until we’re home again (Find our way Find our way home again Let the truth be told) Yes we can build back A better world In which the truth is all And words of peace are heard Yes we can conquer The wall of lies And find that hate and fear’s No longer in our eyes In the old world We used words To educate In this cold world We use words To foster hate © 2023 – Romero/Confer/Bonino

Space Rider 03:42
Space Rider Tired of the world we come from Waiting to go home To the planet beyond the stars Space rider I can just image The planet of our origin Peaceful Beautiful Home Space Rider © 2023 Romero/Schindler/Bonino

about

About the Album
According to the Steve Bonino (TRV, Bomber Goggles, Solo). “Tony Romero was throwing out ideas for a second Tony Romero’s Vortex (TRV) album as he, Robert, Steve and Eric were sending audio files back and forth, enhancing Tony’s ideas as they have done in the past. However, half way through the recording process it became clear that what was being created felt different from a Tony solo project. It was sounding like a band unto itself. Thus RED32 was born as an inspired creation morphing out of another inspired creation. The band is excited to share this new sound with you. An amalgam of styles: rock, pop rock, progressive rock , art rock with a touch of ambient thrown into the mix. Filled with memorable melodies, thoughtful lyrics and creative arrangements, we invite you to spin the roulette wheel and land with us on RED32.”

RED32 is a new crossover progressive pop rock band based throughout the United States featuring members of Tony Romero’s Vortex, Xaoslord, Bomber Goggles, and States. The band strives to blend the varied influences of its four members into a forward looking musical expression.
