Ultraklystron - Opensource Lyricist
All tracks written, performed, mixed, recorded and produced by Karl Olson.
Copyright 2005-2007.

The vaguely anticipated follow up to the relatively successful nerdcore LPs (in terms of Karl Olson's prior success,) Revision 4920 and Romance Language. Clocking in at about 80 minutes of original, new material and $14 including shipping and handling, Opensource Lyricist continues the tradition layed down in 4920 of confusing any and all listeners. Lyrically, the new LP not only stays true to the otaku-oriented roots of the first LP (earn it,) but expands into new territory, such as storytelling pieces about the life of a gachapon (coin figure,) talking with a producer at an anime con (priceless,) gnu public licencing (opensource lyricist) and even protest songs (so long kids.)

Critical Praise for Opensource Lyricist:
"I could probably sit down and come up with piles of accolades to pile up for each track, but honestly if you have heard any of the previous albums you should stop reading right now and go to his site and pick this one up." - Pure Defect

"Do I recommend the CD? Highly." - Ben Boemer, Gaijin Side.

"A devasting nerdcore masterpiece." - Jevon, Hi-Sci-Fi.

"It's f***ing good!" - Garrett, Mega 64 Podcast Episode 66.

Cuteness by Karl Olson Ch. Time to come live from Seattle With No Fear or Loathing But you should understand that I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing I fawn innocence and cuteness As a pretense to hide my muteness Though I'm sure the perceptive Probably already knew this v1. Watch out now - for it's time to come with feelin Cribbing angst from shoujo comics/Japanese and Korean Bishoujo in floppy socks/Art School Punks with Dreadlocks Superfly samurai rolling on dubs in droptops We read our graphic novels for a moment to pretend That we've got our own digital absolute best friend You may read it for characters/I may read it for the man But we can share series data on imageboards like 4chan Slash mc is my catagory/upload pictures and some stories At the end it's shadows on the wall/ like a cave allegory You could call me the doctor/cause I was born on gallefrey And if you believe that/than I'm also kid n' play And when I was young/ I was like a teen titan But I'm not Beastboy nor Raven/you can call me ultraklystron Now I'm not superhero except when I'm on the mic Cause I never go gentle into that good night v2. I don't need pinky diamond gleam/nor expensive ice creams with spinning rims and drum machines/sown into the seams Give me a pair of converse/old skool style like Kareem Then you better clear a path/for my super buster beam I'm enigmatic like a puzzle game/so just give me a twist I turn breakbeats into gold/like the fullmetal alchemist And I'm feelin fine/sans influence of the mountain kind I Don't need the robotussin/I already feel divine My rhymes maybe nothing but gratuitous boasting But here's to a world with fortuitous toasting It maybe imitated / with adept MC ghosting But they'll have to keep up/cause I'm never ever coasting And I'll still moderate / even when I'm world renown Even when people come / from a 1000 miles around From shores of Hokkaido / to heart of Sea Town I'll keep posting on the net/ til the forums shut down (ch.) v3. The Melody of Logic / always plays the truth So don't try to step to me / because that game is uncouth And by step I mean don't think that you can argue with me Unless you've got hard data that you've collected recently And generally I'm sick / of hearing about politics So don't even go down that path / I'll vanish like Loonatics Cartoon Series - So anyone that can hear me Better make sure that they are enjoyable company Though that's not to say I hate / nor that I descriminate I just would like to dodge negativity / before it hits my plate So I'll admit this verse hasn't been that nerdcore Am I becoming like the geekstas that cut the path before Acting all socially relevent/telling companies to go repent Rather talking about how my trading cards got all bent When I was tripped by a football player/Who said he hates Angelic Layer And I how I put Twin Spica/Up on my home networks' share (ch.)
