Been obsessed with Muse ever since I started discovering more of their stuff around 2012 and it pisses me off how a song like this hasn't exploded the way a lot of modern garbage does.

I feel like that with Dead Sara. If music were all about talent and merit, they'd have been one of the biggest rock bands of the last decade, easily. But because they're a female-led rock act that doesn't try and push sex appeal (even though Siouxsie Medley is a goddamn smokeshow and often goes onstage barely-dressed, it's more about how she gets all hot and sweaty due to her hyper-aggressive guitar playing and merely wants to be comfortable, more than it does with trying to "Be Sexy"), they don't get a push and can't keep a record label interested.
It's a shame. Everything "music" that's been pushed on the masses for the last 10+ years is garbage, but there's a lot of good acts out there who fly under the radar simply because they refuse to play the game.

Everywhere you looked there was confusion, violence, drama and drugs... So many righteous revolutionaries spouting Utopian love... Everyone shrouded in purple haze... Then one day they woke up from their dream state... They found themselves no more at peace than before... Older, meek, and conformed... Empty Causes... A bluster for the soul, a fix for their mind... Empty Causes... Cling to everything you find... Well, the shots rang out like popcorn And the Chief was hit and rushed out of sight... The Mohawk-chain, leather brigade rejoiced maliciously on that night... Someone cried out "F*ck the government!" His mates couldn't define what he meant... So no one gave him the time of day, And the scene died away... Empty Causes... A war for the body, an army in the mind... Empty Causes... Losing steam as time goes by... Could it be that everybody selfishly desires their own personal retinue? And that causes are just manifestations Of too much time, and far too little to do...? Empty Causes... Direction for the soul, conviction for the mind... Empty Causes... Cling to everything you find... Empty Causes... You've got Yours and I've got Mine...

I close both locks below the window... I close both blinds and turn away... Sometimes solutions aren't so simple... Sometimes goodbye's the only way... And the sun will set for you... The sun will set for you... And the shadow of the day, Will embrace the world in gray... And the sun will set for you... In cards and flowers on your window... Your friends all plead for you to stay... Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple... Sometimes goodbye's the only way... And the sun will set for you... The sun will set for you... And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in gray... And the sun will set for you... And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in gray... And the sun will set for you... And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in gray... And the sun will set for you...

Minutes To Midnight was a new direction for LP, but it was easy to get into. It's a solid album. Unlike something like The Hunting Party which.... I don't know. Not a bad album, but it's like nobody cared.
And on that note, now I'm also listening to MTM. |

Not a huge fan of the band (or their main genre), personally, but there's a few songs I like a lot. I've just always felt a strong kinship with "broken" people, especially ones who've killed themselves. And I find a lot of beauty in their art. It speaks greatly to what they were feeling, and most often people don't notice or care until it's too late.
Like people generally stigmatize suicide and say that those people are "weak" and "cowardly" or whatever, but I really don't see it that way at all, not even a little bit. I think it takes far more courage to march headlong into the unknown at your own volition than it does to merely "exist" in a life that no longer holds any meaning for you. I think those words are just things selfish people say to try and deflect from the fact that they didn't do more to make the person's life more tolerable. They don't want to feel guilty, so they deflect. I understand it, but they're wrong. Committing suicide is the exact opposite of "cowardly". There's no promise of an afterlife, or a Heaven or a Hell or a Limbo, or anything. But for a person to say, "I don't know, but I also don't care," and take the power into themselves ANYway... well, that's courage, not cowardice. I very often feel like they're the true brave ones, and the ones they leave behind are the cowards. Most of those people could have done more to prevent the incident, after all, but they didn't. It doesn't take "courage" to ignore or diminish another person's pain, or to stay alive just because you're scared of dying. That's fear, not power. Courage is deciding that only you are the captain of your own destiny, even if that "destiny" is oblivion. I find this one pretty poignant. I find it very interesting that it's one of the last ones they did before Chester killed himself, and one of the first to come out after. I know there's all those conspiracy theories and everything about what "really" happened to him but I kind of don't buy that. Everything I've ever read suggests that he simply had a really rough go of things and simply didn't want to be here anymore. I'm not glad that it happens, but I will never, ever say that anyone who killed themselves was "wrong" to do so. That's ultimately their decision. Frankly, if they're unhappy, then I find it arrogant and narcissistic to try and argue with their decision. Nobody ever really knows what a person is feeling. "I wish they were still here" is well-meaning, and I understand it, but it's ultimately selfish. Anyway, yeah, I actually started listening to their music a little bit more after the fact. I feel bad for his family, but... I'm sure he had a good enough reason.

I got two letters from you... Last words of the runaway... Your love was written so true... And now I can't speak your name... I faced destruction and you... Just killed me and walked away... I gave my heart to the cruel... Now it will not beat again.... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... Just like I suffered... No one will ever know you... Deny the last one who cares... Intoxicate with the new... Pretend I'm no longer here... I opened my heart to you... You lied just to reach inside... Now with the faith you removed... Our hope for forgiveness dies... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... Just like I suffered... I've seen my darkest days... You gave each one to me... I've seen my darkest days... You gave each one to me... You have been lost for days... May you find my darkness... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... I Hope You Suffer... I hope you do... Just like I... I f*cking suffered... Just like you... You made me suffer... I hope you... I hope you do...

You know I'm f*ckin mental, I'm killin' your sh*t retardedly! You're short as f*ck... like half of me boy! Plus you're an old white guy playin' with Japanese toys! Whatever happens you know Snak'll destroy... Can tell I'm underneath your skin the way you actin' annoyed! It took him a week but at least he tryin', weak and blind, Without a decent line, In the f*ckin' jungle with a BC lion... He's tryin'a keep the peace, I'm trying to increase the crime, Brought the chloroform I'm f*ckin' puttin' you to sleep this time! Yeah okay, you got a few fans, that's great... But you been rappin' twenty-two years, I been at it for eight! And eight years from now, he'll be a senior citizen, Sh*ttin' his diapers in an old folks home wishin' somebody would visit him! You gotta stop holding on to the past Shane, You're a moped with flat tires trying to roll in the fast lane! Your teeth are mad ugly, they been rotten for years, Your boy got sick of Photoshoppin' 'em and bought you veneers!

"It's just a tweet, why you gotta over-react?" Listen you little bitch, I'm just exposing the facts! You wanna talk about my girl like you're a tough little punk? Red One f*cked Fiona, you locked that slut in your trunk! Then you went and tattooed her ugly face on your chest, You put GHB in bitches' drinks, when they won't stay to have sex! I'm gonna grab you by your pimple head and twist it around, Fist-f*ck your mother's pussy 'til she piss on the ground! She spinnin' on the top of my dick like a propeller! She does what I tell her! When I'm done, she's back in the cellar! (GET BACK IN THERE!!!) Man, you ain't punching sh*t! You're old and frail, That was a lie what you said about Moka O and Prevail! How'd you like the screen shots? Stomp you till your spleen pops! Sayin' that you're clean? STOP! You a f*ckin' fiend, Doc! It took you seven days to write that half-assed sh*t! You're not a legend or a rapper, you white trash has-been! You been swimming in gas, I'm just the guy that lit it... We both drink and do drugs, at least I admit it... BITCH! This is Child Abuse! (What? What?) Yo this is Child Abuse! (You little sh*t!) This is Child Abuse... This f*ckin' Child Abuse! (You little sh*t!) This is Child Abuse! (You little sh*t!) F*ckin' Child Abuse!

8bit bEtty - Everything Changes (prelude)
8bit bEtty - Everything Changes (prelude)
Although I cannot understand the lyrics to this song, I think it creates a melancholy mood. This song is the first cut on the album Fake the Bitters. The album grows tiresome as it progresses because it builds each song with a minimalist approach, but the mood created by the sound shows that the composer attempted to make a complete sound. My only criticism of the album would be for the composer to vary the composition and structure to make a new sense of rhythm for each song. 8 out of 10

I'm Palm Palm-head And I wrote one good song... But that was almost 20 years ago! I tried and I tried to follow it up... But you know how those sophomore jinxes go! So I became quite bitter As sales dropped like flies... No one likes these dumb songs Of racing cars and spies! Maybe it's my ape drape... Or hippies in my band... But now we only tour in Arizona or Japan! So after much thought And a panel of experts, I came up with a brilliant little plan... I'll take out my frustrations On one of these ungrateful new punk rock bands! Cuz I invented socks And I invented gravy... I made up the cotton gin But no one ever paid me! Why beat a dead horse With a career that is cursed? I'll just sue for royalties On things I thought of first! Back in Ancient Egypt Many Pharaohs went to jail For misappropriation of my Phrygian scale! I said "Listen Tutankhamen, You're driving me insane... It's obvious those bellies Are all dancing to Bloodstains! I figured out you owe me, And please try not to laugh... But every time I hear it I get one more golden calf!" So I've bitten off A sizable chunk Of the hands of the people with the food... Now I'm confined to the pages of Flipside... A graveyard of punk rock's 35 year old dudes! Cuz I invented socks And I invented gravy... I made up the cotton gin But no one ever paid me! Why beat a dead horse With a career that is cursed? I'll just sue for royalties On things I thought of first! Palm Palm! Palm Palm! Palm Palm! Ape Drape! Ape Drape! Poodle Head! Poodle Head! --------- History lesson: This song was written by The Vandals to make fun of Agent Orange, specifically frontman Mike Palm. Agent Orange had claimed that "Come Out and Play" by The Offspring had "sampled" the guitar riff from the Agent Orange song "Bloodstains", and while they never pursued legal action, they did ask for money and whined a lot about it in the media. The Vandals noted how silly it was that anyone would try and claim "ownership" of an Arabic scale riff that goes back centuries, so they wrote this song to poke fun at the situation. And to make fun of Palm's mullet.
