    Rusted' is the debut EP of Mike West.

    LIMITED PHYSICAL COPIES AVAILABLE and FREE POSTAGE

    'Rusted' was recorded 'live' using three microphones and one take at Kingwood Studios to get the best possible recordings of these songs. If Robert Johnson can record some of the greatest songs ever made using one microphone in a hotel room, I can sure as hell create a 5 track record that I can be proud of with a similar approach.

    These 5 songs that make up 'Rusted' took hours of jamming, creation, production and fine tuning along with playing live across Liverpool and Chester and then 2 sessions of recording to capture the right feel and vibe intended for this record. After all these hours of creation and devotion, all I ask if for 18 minutes of your time.

    Can you dig it?

lyrics

I've been looking in the mirror. Have I existed?
All these moments I remember. Did I just dream it?
Time's not my enemy but still I fear it.
I know it's not my time to die but lord I feel near it.

So if you're going through hell. Keep going.
If you don't know which way to go. Keep going.
So if you're going through hell. Keep going.

A blind man told me, dying was easy.
He forgot to say that living was hard.
I feel my optimism trying to leave me.
All that's left is a man, bitter and scarred.

So if you're going through hell. Keep going.
If you don't know which way to go. Keep going.
So if you're going through hell. Keep going.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter in.
As much as they love a saint, they always love a sin.
I don't know where I'm going. Only where I've been.
As long as I keep my head up, I know I won't fall in.

So if you're going through hell. Keep going.
If you don't know which way to go. Keep going.
So if you're going through hell. Keep going.
If you don't know which way to go. Keep going.
So if you're going through hell. Keep going.
