about

He's back! After a 3 year hiatus Frankie Crea returns with his latest single in 2022 - 'Plateaus'.

'Plateaus' is a return to his old favoured well known sound to the likes of his debut EP 'Countless Days' (released in 2018) that of which is Indie Rock. Diminished Jazzy chord type progressions run strong through the tracks verses, interwebbed with Hendrixy inspired licks, fills and basslines for days that intertwine with the guitar, backed by rocksteady drums that drives the songs juicy groove, the pre chorus vocal melody is rythmic and percussive mimicking the drums but yet packs a punch with a massive anthemic chorus which Frankie's vocals shine through and that takes the ball home proud. Not to mention the numerous guitar solos that run through the middle and outro. Recorded, mixed and mastered in his home studio, it's a must listen for any Indie Rock fan. Infact, anyone!.

Lyrically it delves into Frankie's personal life, his own realisation of being faced with challenges but in the end things will be ok, and just like many of lifes challenges, we all run through "Plateaus" one way or another.

Frankie Crea's new single 'Plateaus' will be out on all online music platforms April 29th, 2022.

lyrics

You say you're sorry,
For what it can't be,
I lock it away safe and sound.

Is it another can we?,
Cause this bottle is empty,
Old habits dug up from under the ground.

Now are you with me?,
Or are you against me?,
I try so hard just to take what I found.

No it's not easy,
It's not meant to be, yeah.

Sharpshooter flare,
Sight on the eyes,
What do I got to do?,
Got to do?.

Just to,
See a time, in another place so four dimensional,
Getaway in line,
Yet to be determined for the space above,
And it's just so fine, no problem at all,
Oh, but it can't take long.

They say,
There's no place like home, humble abode safe haven,
Questioning your minds eye built with a filthy patience,
And a yearning for whats left,
Coming around as you.

Swim into my life,
Drowning and falling,
To realize I'm back at the start,
Of these blank streets,
Where roads won't end,
I don't know where I'm heading,
But I know I'll be running,
Through plateaus again.

Your patience running,
Out of my own skin, yeah,
Steering away,
From foreign land,
Biting the taste,
That feeds the hand.

So I,
Do whats best and crawl back into a hole,
Just to feed my own need,
And ego places a hold,
But something has got to give,
For all that is needed.

Swim into my life,
Drowning and falling,
To realize I'm back at the start,
Of these blank streets,
Where roads won't end,
I don't know where I'm heading,
But I know I'll be running,
Through plateaus again.

Mmm ba ba mmm ba da ba. (8x)
Ooo ahh ahh. (4x)

Swim into my life,
Now that I'm falling,
I realize our two worlds apart,
With my ending to be,
Continued friend,
I don't know where I'm heading,
But I know I'll be running,
Through plateaus again,
Old plateaus again,
Yeah, through plateaus again.
