Vocal stylings ala Murphy/Bowie/Manson, the new band Life Love Misery looks to move you with songs via an Alt-Rock Trio + String Quartet.

released 06 July 2010
After studying jazz music in college, Todd Tate made the switch to rock music by playing with a number of Bay Area bands in the late ‘90s. He later formed his own group, Life Love Misery, and rounded out the power trio’s lineup with drummer Kenny Stavropoulos (a former touring percussionist for Starship) and ex-Psychosis bassist Mario Previti. Life Love Misery also received some help from orchestrator Graham Pellettieri, who arranged string parts for the band’s first batch of songs, and the group released its self-titled studio debut in 2009.
You and me
Under the trees you see
Under the stars in the night
Don’t you see?
Don’t you see?
Love comes and goes
Love comes and goes
Sa la vi l’amore ( misery )
Love come and goes
Love comes and goes
Sa La Vie LoaMore
You and me
Under the trees you see
Under the stars in the night
Don’t you see?
Don’t you see?

Track Name: April
Marchin’ towards the sunshine
February’s still too cold
January what brings New Year, new life
December so tired, but I’ve made it through another year
November I remember how you touched me
October mask of Halloween, memories of summer haunt me
September blues will never rain on me again
August the heat of loneliness is unbearable
July strange cold night
June so confusing
May I ask you a question?
April
Loh where do you go?
O uh oh April, loh whoa your so fine
O uh oh April, loh see ya next year!
Marchin’ towards the sunshine
February’s still too cold

December so tired, but I’ve made it through another year
November I remember how you touched me
October mask of Halloween, memories of summer haunt me
September blues will never rain on me again
No
August the heat of loneliness is unbearable
July strange cold night
June so confusing
May I ask you a question?
April

Track Name: Takes the Edge Off
It takes the edge off it takes the edge off
When I put the bottle to my lips
Pull my woman to my hips
Stop the car
Before it hits the wall
It takes the edge off it takes the edge off
When I inhale, catch the breeze to sail
Things aren’t always what they seem
Better than a cigarette
Better than Tina and all her friends
Better than an ice cold beer huh
Uh oh baby don’t you know you’re the one
Living having so much fun yeah
It takes the edge off it takes the edge off
When ya put your arms around me
Sing that song about me
Put your head back, watch it hit the wall
Better than a cigarette
Better than Tina and cocaine
Better than an ice cold beer huh
Uh oh baby don’t you know you’re the one
Living having so much fun yeah
It takes the edge off it takes the edge off
It takes the edge off
Your touch
Takes the edge off
