A collaboration between Israeli singer songwriter ×ביב גפן(Aviv Geffen) and British musician and producer Steven Wilson. Two years back and forth on the London-Tel-Aviv flight path, a mutual artistic curiosity, and a close friendship are the components that gave birth to Aviv and Steven's Blackfield project. ×ביב גפן, a highly successful solo artist and outspoken (not to mention controversial) peace campaigner, with a string of gold albums in his own country, discovered the music of Steven's band Porcupine Treein the mid 90's and followed their career development. In 2000 he invited the band to perform some concerts in Israel and met with Steven in London to discuss the idea. Something clicked and before long they had already collaborated on the very first Blackfield song.

Blackfield
Don't say everything's okay
Don't tell me that it's just a phase
It doesn't help me
All the stars are standing still
The anger and the sleeping pills
Are all that's left now
An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me be
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's noone else
Jelousy just eats me up
Another's made the deepest cuts
My heart is popping
You say there must be an end
But afterwards we'll still be friends
It seemed so easy
An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me be
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's noone else
