The band have released four studio albums, "Trickster" (1998), "Zerøspace" (2002), and "Trypt0fanatic" (2010). An EP "The Invisible Plan" (2011). And a remix EP "Phi In The Sky" (2001), released in between "Trickster" & "Zerøspace".
The band re-released "Trickster" as "Trickstereprocess" in 2004, which included 5 new bonus tracks, along with a bonus DVD. After the release of "Trickstereprocess", the group called it quits and went their separate ways. Free Dominguez went on to create an indie project while Bruce Somers created the band Shocknina.
In January of 2007, Free Dominguez sent out a newsletter via email stating that she and Bruce are collaborating once again on brand new Kidneythieves material. These sessions resulted in the brand new album "Tryptofanatic".
Kidneythieves have hired bassist Mirv Douglas and are working on their new EP "The Invisible Plan" to be released in October 2011.
Serene Dream
Kidneythieves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Soft easy winter
Watering the dry spots on the day
Water leaves of gray
Serene dream
Spend nowhere with me
Isn't far to nowhere
Close your eyes in front of nowhere
Language of no words
Spend nowhere with me
Serene dream
Free of thirst and pain
Heavy turns to cake
Serene dream
Where the ethers speak
It's a tall day
Spend nowhere with me
The lyrics to Kidneythieves' "Serene Dream" describe a peaceful, dream-like state of mind where the world around you fades away and all that is left is a serene feeling of contentment. The first verse establishes this state of mind, with the image of a soft and easy winter watering the dry spots of the day. The water leaves of gray suggest a stillness and tranquility, as if time has slowed down and the world is in a state of suspended animation. The second verse encourages the listener to spend nowhere with the singer, suggesting that this state of mind can be found anywhere, regardless of location. The bomb of fountains land suggests an explosive feeling of joy and wonderment that is just waiting to be tapped into. The chorus repeats the idea of spending nowhere with the singer, urging the listener to close their eyes and enter a language of no words, where the outside world cannot intrude.
The third verse takes the image of the serene dream even further, describing a state of being free from thirst and pain, and where heavy burdens turn to cake. This continues the theme of lightness and contentment that runs throughout the song. The final line of the verse, "Where the ethers speak" suggests a kind of otherworldliness and mystical quality to the serene dream. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, with the addition of the phrase "it's a tall day", adding to the sense of expansiveness and possibility that is inherent in the idea of the serene dream.

Oh this brings me back a good 13 years back when I listened to a lot of more rock and metal. Middle school me had good taste in music

This takes me back to like 15 years ago. A poor college student with a crappy minimum wage job. One of my best friends and I would listen to this song while drinking/smoking and talking about how crappy our lives were and how much we hated the world, but this song put us as total ease. Thankfully, today I have a great job and life is good so far. But I like listening to this as it takes me back to my youth and calms me down. ASMR for the ears for sure!
