Backstory:
Founded in Seattle in the late ’80s, Unrealistic Engine began as a group of ambitious college friends who shared a deep love for music. The founding members, Terry (vocals), Dan (guitar), Max (bass), and Nick (drums), started the band in their campus dorm room. It wasn’t long before they were touring local bars and clubs, building a reputation for their distinctive sound. The band’s name, Unrealistic Engine, was inspired by their belief that music could fuel their passion and drive their dreams, no matter how unrealistic.
Genre:
Unrealistic Engine is best known for their unique fusion of rock and electronica, a genre that’s come to be known as “Electro-Rock.” They are celebrated for their ability to merge the raw, unfiltered energy of rock music with the pulsating rhythms and futuristic sounds of electronica.
Title: “Neon Dreams”
Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1: (C G Am F)
In the shadowed streets, where the city sleeps
We’re chasing echoes, under neon dreams
With every beat, our hearts scream,
We are alive, in this machine
Chorus: (F G C Am)
Neon dreams, and heartbeats scream
Living life, in Unrealistic Engine theme
In the pulse of lights, we find our means
In the heart of night, we chase, neon dreams
Verse 2: (C G Am F)
Through the static noise, we find our voice
In the chaos, we make our choice
With electric pulse, and digital cries,
We’re running wild, under neon skies
Chorus: (F G C Am)
Neon dreams, and heartbeats scream
Living life, in Unrealistic Engine theme
In the pulse of lights, we find our means
In the heart of night, we chase, neon dreams
