SACCHARINE TRUST
THE GREAT ONE IS DEAD
(chapbook/album companion)
Poems by Jack Brewer
Illustrations by Joe Baiza
_____________________
To start with the obvious: there can be no Saccharine Trust without the dark insights of Jack Brewer's lyrics and their nervous, halting delivery. The Great One Is Dead is filled to the brim with both. Brewer's writing often seems to focus on the pain of real world relationships, real world failings, and street level real world life in general. His lyrics have always been far from Utopian in scope. It is within their poetic treatment that these stark realities are often given a kind of grace. Read or listen to "Water on the Dance Floor" or "The Sadness of Apollo" or "Untitled No. 2 (I gave another dimension the slip)" for prime examples of his lyrical prowess in these matters.
—Disaster Amnesiac
This chapbook consists of fourteen Jack Brewer poems that were written well before the music came into play. In the end, these Saccharine Trust compositions go hand in hand with Jack’s poetry and Joe Baiza's illustrations, making it a great companion piece to The Great One Is Dead double album experience.
