Intrinsic. The path you're on. But for how long. To pull the handle. The one way out. The pulling of the pin. Stopping. Stepping aside. Into the new. Into headlights. By a bolt of energy. The Jumpstart. The leaving behind. The old. For the river to claim. A new engine revving. The surge. There is no middle age. Never was. Life on the border. Implored. Waiting over. Let's party." Jump Start is celebratory, psychedelic, driving, sonically delightful. If this is the work of a mad scientist, at least he's friendly. That maniacal grin, so...welcoming and warm. Come into the laboratory... Men On The Border are Goeran Nystroem and Phil Etheridge.
