Witches 04:27
He’s waiting at the counter To buy some happiness The watch on his wrist Is worth some hundred dollar bills Says he’s got the cure To the hungry and the poor As he throws his bombs On their ships about to moor With a smirk upon his face He’ll lay flowers on our graves And he's comin' with his aides How they want your sweet embrace With a smirk upon his face He’ll lay flowers on our graves And he's comin' with his aides How they want your sweet embrace He speaks for compassion But in his hands, just emptiness Don’t let him give you the touch Or death will give you caress He’s wating at the counter To buy some happiness The watch on his wrist Is worth some hundred dollar bills With a smirk upon his face Killin' flowers on our graves On his look all turned to stone It's recorded on the tapes With a smirk upon his face Killin' flowers on our graves On his look they turned to stone It's recorded on the tapes

My Life Is 04:12
I got a feeling, I got a feeling I think I’m bleeding, I think I’m bleeding I got a feeling, I got a feeling Oh I’m bleeding Yes I’m bleeding Oh, tonight, you had me blow my own mind Every night, I keep on searching mankind With every movement you make Another nerve of me awakes I got a feeling, I got a feeling Inside my dreams, I’m always bleeding My body's chilling, my head is drilling And I’m screaming Yes I’m dreaming Make me smile {make me smile} I’d travel the world for you All my life {all my life} I’ve been searching to find the truth I know that we are sometime to end Define my lie {define my lie} Fire a song in a cry Aside from me My Life’s so free Aside from you My Life is blue Aside from me No one's keeping me Aside from you I feel so blue I feel so… I feel so… I kneel before… I gave my soul Aside from me My life’s so free Aside from you My life is blue Aside from me No one's keeping me Aside from you My life is blue My life is.. My life is.. My life is.. My life is..

Ocean Blue 03:14
I see around me blue It’s the ocean blue I feel its every move My shuddering heart Wind around me blows It’s five o’clock And there's a sharkfin rose Now close your eyes to see It’s coming for me It wants me to plea When I was entering this world They stripped me off From powers and from thoughts Of my redemption Here I am alone Fighting storms With wooden guns and boats That my mind crafts On the wave that takes me home All I want is to roll On the wave that takes me home I wanna roll I wanna.. I wanna.. I wanna roll I wanna.. I wanna roll I wanna.. I wanna roll x5

Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storm around passed, in our pockets our hearts The time will arrive, in a flashy new car Driving to nowhere, he’ll take us too far The time will arrive, the time will arrive It ends in a dream, covered in rust Take of your chains, dive in my arms It’s just a dream, it’s dust in the dust I’m still alive, I saw your heart skip a beat We’re still behind, {Still alive} The red curtains of the stage I’m still alive, I saw your heart skip a beat We’re still behind, {Still alive} The red curtains of the stage Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storms around passed, in our pockets our hearts You found that out, I heard you on the phone Lost in your void, running like an electron We are all lost now, anyway Down in the streets, we’re lead astray In heaven beneath, hear her say All our lives, dug in an ashtray I’m still alive, I saw your heart skip a beat We’re still behind, {Still alive} The red curtains of the stage I’m still alive, I saw your heart skip a beat We’re still behind, {Still alive} The red curtains of the stage Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storm around passed, in our pockets our hearts Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storm around passed, in our pockets our hearts Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storm around passed, in our pockets our hearts Dust in the dust, we arrived in the past As the storm around passed, in our pockets our hearts You’re still alive I heard the air in your lungs We sit in rust my love Our lives A sundance show You’re still alive, I heard the air in your lungs We sit in rust my love Our lives A sundance show

Sailor 06:00
I was twenty five You were twenty two And my life was so blue I saw you in the bus You were smiling Inside my heart I was the driver You were the destination I was the driver You were the purpose on my road Bring me fire {fire} In my head Bring me happiness {hapiness} In my heart Bring me fire In my head Bring me happiness In my heart Maybe tomorrow I will grab your hand Maybe tomorrow I will be your man Baby smile to me one more time Baby please don’t leave me for a while You are a sailor {sailor} Maybe this is the reason Why you calm my heart {my heart} I am a fever {fever} I am a traitor {traitor} But nothing without your love You see, I'm dreaming every night your smile Your smile, your smile, Oh your smile Bring me fire {fire} In my head Bring me happiness {hapiness} In my heart Stop the hiding Erase the pain I'm afraid To love again Maybe tomorrow {tomorrow} I will grab your hand Maybe tomorrow {tomorrow} I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be your man Baby smile to me one more time Baby please don’t leave me for a while For a while x4

about

"I see around me blue…"
“Dust in the Dust,
We arrived in the past”
“Bring me happiness,
In my soul”
“He’s waiting at the counter
to buy some happiness”

In 2018 the ground work of what became later our first EP was set. It took a turbulent summer and another quarantine for the EP to be published. Perhaps we work best when we are at our worst.

Lyrics and music are assorted and inspired by everyday life thoughts, wishes and fears. Our debut album is about the travel within, the lost destinations and new directions that come up in the unexpected. We are about a glimpse of love in a city bus, the dust on an old photograph, the dread of the miracle of life, the utter blue of the Aegean sea, the witches of the modern world.

As we love to say,
“The Rest Is You”.

about

High Hills Athens, Greece

High Hills is a band from Athens, Greece. The band roots in 2018. From the start we have fought tirelessly with each other to define our genre. We’ll just leave it up to you. Then maybe we’ll fight you too :) . We like to play with sounds and approaches, orbiting around the mothership of “Alternative Rock”. Our influences range from stoner to techno to pop-funk. ... more
