scary manilow sci fi rock
Artist picture
A molten maelstrom of mechanized malevolence for a murderous millennium.
"(Sci-Fi Thriller) ... sounds deceptively playful and majestic, yet somehow unsettling and disturbing.... Like Voivod, Faith No More and Tool jamming with Danny Elfman ... " --- David Glessner, Metal Edge magazine/San Antonio Express-News " . . . to describe the sound and presence of Scary Manilow . . . (take) the creativity and innovative spirit of Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, then combine that with the intensity of a cosmic super nova, captured and translated into music form . . . Half science fiction, half horror, all original hyper-space rock . . . (Sci-Fi Thriller is) a mind altering listening experience that stirs the imagination with more visuals and special effects than any movie could ever possibly do." --- Zach Marcotte, The Edge Magazine "If Scary Manilow's three-song 'To the Grave' EP is any indication, the quartet has plenty to offer imaginative rockers . . . while some people stand around and decry the city's lack of a 'scene,' artists such as Vince Pinedo and his Scary Manilow cohorts dig in, go to work and create." --- Jim Beal Jr., San Antonio Express-News "Just when you're thinking the night couldn't get better, Scary Manilow rolled up like a packing fist on to the stage. Cindy Osbourne on keyboards (and vocals) gives this industrial sound to the band that is kicking out some hard rhythmic ear candy. " --- Melissa Hernandez, SA Music Scene "Scary Manilow is a science fiction rock 'n' roll group . . . that . . . combines keyboards with a male and female singer. This combination is rarely seen these days, but it does them well." --- Alexander Crowe, The Edge Magazine "Think of a horror movie without the movie and you'll be close." --- Jim Beal Jr., San Antonio Express-News "I have been captured by Scary Manilow and their unique, atmospheric, sci-fi horror rock . . . With a calming yet captivating stage presence and a sort of psychotic yet melodic sound, Scary Manilow is something one must experience." --- Zach Marcotte, The Edge Magazine

Story behind the song
Vince penned this song about an ex-girlfriend who died tragically in an auto accident when she was very young. She was a lost soul…
Lyrics
There you go - I think you died again – Well, if you ever were alive – I can't remember when – Well, it's sad to think of how it might've been -But you burned your bridges and forgot your friends - And I still remember beggin’ you to stop - But you're never happy 'til the day you drop - You're a graveyard - You're a grizzly sight - You're an open casket on a stormy night -You're a vampire - You’re the devil's whore - You're an angel drowning in an open sore - And on that stormy night, I cried - I made the moon my only bride - A river flowed in crimson tide - The shadows swallowed you inside -See her wave goodbye - See her kiss the sky - Angels start to cry - Please don't ask me why – Please don’t ask me why – Well, I miss the clutter of our ruined home - It's the only place I didn't feel alone - And I miss the silence when we didn't speak - And the bed of lies where I could hardly sleep - Well you're gone now and you can't be saved - But you stole my love and took it to the grave – Well, I'm going crazy screaming at the sky - Can you feel me fall and can you hear me cry
