Welcome to the 40th episode of Lingua Brutallica! To celebrate this milestone, we present a very special episode featuring Paul Masvidal of genre-defying Cynic. Paul takes us on a guided tour through the enormous breadth of lyrical material he composed over the span of his 35-year career in the industry. He details how the lyrics that accompanied each of Cynic's albums, whether more earthly or extra-terrestrial, reflected different moments and events his life, as well as the thoughts and feelings they generated. Though we frequently attempt to intellectualise lyrical choices that Paul describes as the unstructured products of creative flow, he graciously takes us through the process of cultivating an increasingly minimalist lyrical style, including writing songs without any lyrics at all. Importantly, whether his lyrics be dense or entirely absent, Paul's lyrics are works of love and truth - both his own and that for and about the wider world.

We invite our listeners to explore Cynic's illustrious lyrical catalogue here: https://listen.cyniconline.com/bio
