There's a book on a table in the room of a house In a land that's driven by the wheel There's a knife on the doorstep of a parish church In a town where the sky is the color of steel There's a fool giving order to the farmer and the priest In a land where no one has enough to eat There's a shadow that moves across the wheel Until it settles on the knife in the farmer's field. Chorus: In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife In the year of the fool / when the shadows come to life There are songs that sing on the tenement steps Where the children play with gruesome things Filled with secret words that they can’t forget Made to tug at your heart strings Chorus: In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife In the year of the fool / when the shadows come to life In the month of the wheel / in the season of the knife In the year of the fool / when the sun comes out at night The wheel forever turning/turning The Knife stabs and slashes and cuts away The fool’s eyes are burning/burning In the Sun in the Shadows in the Night and the Day The Wheel forever spinning/spinning The Knife so cold, so sharp, so bright The Fool foolishly grinning/grinning In the Shadows in the Sun in the Day and the Night

about

7th Victim Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

When you think of Philadelphia-based electronic acts, only one name comes to mind.
That name is Void Vision.
But sometimes they're not available. For those times, there's 7th Victim.
Formed in Stocksbridge, UK in 1976, 7th Victim has played shows with Joy Division, The Clash, The KLF, and Depache Mode.. Except for when they haven't. Which they didn't. Why are you still reading this?
