Two friends in Vienna Austria decided to start a band called Lee Van Cleef that would play dancey songs based on Spaghetti Western chord progressions. So they wrote a dozen songs, added a bassist, added a trumpet player, played a bunch of shows, changed their band name to Chick Quest, and recorded "Vs. Galore" (which this song is taken from) in 2015. New songs currently in the works.
lyrics
The words on your tongue make a heartbeat run amok
and every single night I'm fighting from inside a shadow
that’s moving like a ghost down in between your walls and alleys
and tapering at the end the moment's gone gone gone.
You're angry because this isn't what you want.
The boring city people are a haunt.
How many more lives have you got?
I can't say I know.
A bitter stream of thoughts are pouring out like leaky memories
in undulating hemorrhages of friendship miscarriages
or a giant big hand from the closet of the damned
that pulls you back pulls you back into a bad dream.
