About Us

Tibrus has been making music since 2003, when it was formed to fulfill a final project in a high school music class. Their latest album, Mixed Fuel, was largely recorded in 2005, although some of the music was written in 2003. It wasn't finished until 2009 due to a hiatus to attend college, during which time an excessive amount of partying prevented the completion of the album. Since graduation, there has been a renewed effort by the two of us to get back to what we love most—making great music.


Tibrus is:
David 'Wolfgang' Wedemeyer: Guitars, Bass
David Coffey: Drums, Keyboards, Vocals (except where noted)
Music by Tibrus
Mixed Fuel was produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Tibrus

Very special thanks to the Wedemeyer family for letting us bang really loud drums in your basement all summer. Thanks to Wolfgang and Cassie for doing some ass kicking to get this thing finished. Additional thanks to Lily for inspiring a song deserving of German aggression, and to Dero Goi of OOMPH! and Chris Grantham for German editing assistance.


Currently, Tibrus is not doing live performances. We hope to change this in the near future. We need some additional musicians to round out our lineup. If you live in the Northern Virginia area, like our music, and can sing or play guitar, bass, or keyboards, contact us. We'd love to hear from you.

Mixed Fuel

Play Pause Song Instrumental

Burn

Play Pause Sample Do you think I look calm?
I'm feeling like building a bomb
I will mess you up
I will screw you up

Burn man burn
Burn until you learn
Learn to feel me
Do you feel me?

Pain is what I feel
Cause you make what is real
I will mess you up
I will screw you up

Driving

Play Pause Song Written and performed by David "Wolfgang" Wedemeyer

Sometimes when I just don't know where to turn
In this life with miles to burn
Cities, the places that I have called home (my own)
Time to leave, time to be all on my own (I'm home)

On my way now no need to pack
Just jump in that front seat and pull right back
On the little lever that holds me still
Then crank up the starter it's such a thrill

To be driving, don't know where to
But I'm driving and so can you
I'm driving, to twist and twine
When I'm driving I feel fine

Troubles, past those more than ten miles ago (no woes)
Fear and doubt can't catch me they move too slow (no)
Reasons, there's no need for me to explain (my brain)
Driving it helps me get rid of the pain (stay sane)

Now it's time to pick up the pace
Put my foot down quickly it's like a race
To the furthest place from what I can see
And it helps me to clear out my memory

To be driving this road I'm on
When I'm driving I'm not a pawn
Problems spewing out my exhaust
I've been driving so long now I'm lost

Maybe I've gone just a little bit too far
It makes me wonder why we are
Running in circles but running from nothing
All of this rushing - so overwhelming

Time to slow down now, life's meant to be savored
Not just zoom by cause that's unflavored
Familiar roads I can see in the distance
No more resistance

It makes me twitchy
So exciting
For me
To be driving

Politics 666

Play Pause Sample Let's get fired up about politics!
Yeah, where are my republicans? My democrats?
We need everybody here in the house so we can have some chaos!
Yeah, that's what this country is about
Cause who wants to be an American idiot?
Oh, enough of that stupid song already
Fight, fight, fight, go!
Woo!

We're the Republicans and we'd like say
That most of you are sinners and you hate us anyway
You hate us because we stand up for what's right
We wish that we could help but you insist that we fight

Shut up!
I've had enough of your shit!
Politics, politics, politics
Six six six
Politics, politics six politics
Poli-six six six
Politics tics tics

We're the Democrats and you can suck our dicks
Cause we won't take no fucking shit from you hypocrites
If you tell us one more lie we'll make a movie about you
And sing angry songs and talk trash about you

Yeah, so do you understand me?
I don't care about this
I don't care about politics
Yeah, I just want to sit on my sofa
Read my magazine and watch the TV screen

Love Me Computer

Play Pause Sample There she is on the other side of my screen
I can reach out my hand, but I can't feel her face
I can only imagine how she would feel to me
My hand hits a wall of glass

Internet Explorer Version 6.0
Just isn't enough to make me go
I am loved by the world, by a lovely girl
Computer, make me feel loved

I can look but she won't respond to my feelings
I wanna reach out and grab her, pull her into my reality
I could die right here, her face as still as stone
My heart leaps out of my chest

I Died for You Twice

Play Pause Sample Written and performed by Kevin Sadler

First, there was a girl
And she was my heart
And she was my world
My friend I'd love to the end

My only thought
Is that you were happy and true
And when you needed something
I was the one you'd look to

And I died for you twice
I'd do it again
You were my life and my soul resides
In a world with no feeling
My words are revealing
I was a fool
I was a joke and this was a game

And hell, I should be bitter
I should be mad - what does it matter?
I'll live and I'll die
You killed me again

Love lasts like lullabies in time
The lives of our children are born on that rhyme
Trust me once for the good times we've had
Learn from the memories and don't feel that bad

Know that I did it for you
I did it for love
For millions of men in their lifetime
Who would try for somebody else
Would cry for somebody else
Die for somebody else

I have tried
I have cried
I have died
For you

I'm Not Over You

Play Pause Sample There's a love in the air today
And it makes me want to stay
But it makes me stay away
Cause I'm not over you

And the little I can do
It won't be enough for you
Not with what I have today
But maybe someday soon

You can't stop change
The world changes every day
I'm no exception
And I'm certainly not going away

So I don't know to do
But I know that I love you
And I'll sit here in my room
'Til I get over you

And there's plenty I could do
If I wanted to get you
I'm just not feeling that today
But maybe someday soon

Fusion Locomotion

Play Pause Sample Instrumental

Fråga

Play Pause Song You, you make me feel so anxious
What, what will you do to me?

Will you give it me?
Are you gonna give it to me?
I need it give it to me
C'mon and give it to me

I feel nothing
I need to feel something other
I don't feel nothing
I need your something

I, I want you to rape me
Make, make me feel safe forever

SOAD Blows

Play Pause Sample I am System Of A Down and I like to criticize people
Without using my brain to consider any other point of view
I am so narrow minded, I open my mouth before I think
And I really can't believe that I really have my own CD

I am smart and you are stupid
I am smart and you are dumb

I was not aware that other people could have a different
Perspective on the world because I thought that everyone was just like me
I am so cool, I am so awesome, because I am in a band
And everybody worships me, I am so awesome, I love me

Blastoff!

Nur Im Traum

Play Pause Sample Written and performed by David "Wolfgang" Wedemeyer
Edited by Dero Goi of OOMPH! and Chris Grantham


Es war einmal ein kleines Kind
Das einst mein Freund war
Es ist, so wie ich bevor ich
Aufgewachsen bin

Es spricht zu meiner Dame und glaubt
Es hat eine Chance
Kann es nicht seinen Mund halten
Werd' ich's ihm schon beibringen

Kannst du nicht sehen - und verstehen?
Ich spreche über - dich und nur dich
Deine Worte sind rau - ich denke nicht
Du kannst danach handeln - zu erbärmlich

Du hast kranke Träume - denkst du denn wirklich
Sie gehört dir - und nicht mehr mir
Will ich es dir ganz - einfach erklären
So gut wie ich kann - hörst du mich nicht?

Sie ist meine Frau - wenn sie nach mir fragt
Weißt du sie - wird dir nie gehören
Es ist an der Zeit - zu verstehen
Du bist nur mit ihr - im Traum zusammen

Du denkst du bist schlau aber wenn du's bist
Würdest du sie nicht verfolgen
Du willst mit ihr schlafen, ich werd' dir dafür
Den ewigen Schlaf schenken

Warum gehst du nicht?
Du wirst mich nicht mögen
Wenn ich hier bin
Ich hab dich gewarnt

Du gehst mir unter die Haut
Du bist wie ein Geschwür
Das ich aus unserem
Dasein entfernen muss

Doch sie ist mein Schatz - wenn sie mich begehrt
Weißt du sie - wird dir nie gehören
Du musst dir - selber eingestehen
Nur im Traum - wirst du sie sehen

Not Dead Yet

Play Pause Sample Being overrun by the punk, by the pop
By the grunge rock potheads and the hip-hop thugs
A decade and a half of underground living
Carried on by the resolute few
Metal is the sound that we've all come to know
It's the sound of our burning hearts
Some may say metal's seen better days
But here the new beginning starts

Metal, you're not dead yet
No I say metal, you're not dead yet

Angry sounds and angry words and over-frustrated tones Therapeutic sonic sessions sawing through your bones
The songs for the deaf and the underground left and the anthems of the insecure
Metal lives on in our souls and our hearts, of that you can be sure

Metal, I breathe your life
You're all we got left

Metal you have life as long as I say so, yeah

Take Me Away

Play Pause Sample I wish you would put me to sleep I don't want to be here
There's no escape when I'm awake I don't want to be here
As far as I can tell there is no end to the pain
It never stops I've tried to stop I'm going insane

I hate you
But I love you

Take me away

This is pointless I feel fine now I feel like crap
Because you don't treat me the way that you said you would
You stupid girl why don't you just tell me what you want
How am I supposed to know when you won't even communicate

Fake People

Play Pause Sample So someone who you think is cool turns out to be your worst fear
Could be your boss or your girlfriend or your closest pal but it turns out they haven't been real

They play all nice and act like your friend long enough to get you in their grasp
And just when you think that things are cool they rape you in your ass

Fake people everywhere
What am I supposed to do?
Fake people everywhere
Watch out cause they're screwing you
Fake people everywhere
What am I supposed to say
Fake people everywhere
I wish that I could make them pay

Fake people penetrate all of our society
Infecting the government and various powerful agencies
They hide in the ranks of corporations but you'll never know the place
Until they want to steal from you that's when they show their real face
