    I love the restrained tension in that song, and the fact that it never breaks out and remains unresolved. That's beautiful.

      That is PRECISELY how it hit when I was 15 and stuck in a VERY abusive home, surrounded by boys at school who were scared of me but wanted to play with me at the same time. This walking implosion. Constantly cracking, never actually breaking.

      Yes. You initially might want the drop, the crashing drums, the transition to the "next level." It never comes and you come to appreciate that.

    My middle school teacher would give us listening assignments and he would play a song for us and he played a tv on the radio song for us and I fell in love. Thanks Mr Cowan. You’re the fucking man.

    Hear me hailing from inside and realize
    I am the conscience clear
    In pain or ecstasy
    And we're all weaned my dear
    Upon the same fatigue
    We're staring at the sun
    Oh my own voice
    Cannot save me now
    Standing in the sea
    It's just
    One more breath
    And then
    I'll go down
    Your mouth is open wide
    The lover is inside
    And the tumult's done
    Collided with the sign
    You're staring at the sun
    You're standing in the sea
    Your body's over me
    Note the trees because the
    Dirt is temporary
    More to mine than fact, face,
    Name, and monetary
    Beat the skins and let the
    Loose lips kiss you clean
    Quietly pour out like light
    Like light, like answering the sun
    You're staring at the sun
    You're standing in the sea
    Your mouth

    If anyone didn’t know this song is inspired by the Rumi poem No Room For Form...
    NO ROOM FOR FORM
    On the night when you cross the street
    From your shop and your house
    To the cemetery
    You’ll hear me hailing you from inside
    The open grave, and you’ll realize
    How we’ve always been together.
    I am the clear consciousness-core
    Of your being, the same in
    Ecstasy as in self-hating fatigue.
    That night, when you escape your fear of snakebite
    And all irritations with the ants, you’ll hear
    My familiar voice, see the candle being lit,
    Smell the incense, the surprise meal fixed
    By the lover inside all your other lovers.
    This heart tumult is my signal
    to you igniting in the tomb.
    So don’t fuss with the shroud
    And the graveyard dust.
    Those get ripped open and washed away
    In the music of our final meeting.
    And don’t look for me in human shape,
    I am inside your looking. No room
    For form with love this strong.
    Beat the drum and let the poets speak.
    This is the day of purification for those who
    Are already mature and initiated into what love is.
    No need to wait until we die!
    There’s more to want here than money
    And being famous and bites of roasted meat.
    Now, what shall we call this new sort of gazing house
    That has opened in our town where people sit
    Quietly and pour out their glancing
    Like light, like answering?

    Saw these guys at pitchfork in 2012 i think it was. they rocked and they did a nice version of Keep Your Heart which i feel the sadness in the air pouring from their souls. Also they did a nice of version of A Method with Shabazz Palaces making an appearance on stage with them, and towards the end they did a badass cover of Fugazi's waiting room and of course Wolf Like Me was mind blowing, if you get a chance to see these guys perform especially outside at night then take it.

    Back when I first heard this song, I think I remember it taking a while for me to like it. But now that I do, I can't stop liking it more and more... It's such a comforting song, despite the somewhat depressing lyrics. The sound is fuzzy and warm and enveloping--like a blanket, like a universe. And I love the funky sine-wavy video :)

    For some reason, this song hits me deep! I wonder what the meaning behind it is though..

    • @1OTDM
      @1OTDM 9 лет назад +6

      +ryan wilson Maybe it's about doing something you know is bad for you in a desperate search for the profound, for meaning? It's about a loneliness that can lead you on destructive search for connections with the world, the universe, and other people.
      Or I dunno, maybe it's just pretty nonsense, a musical Rorschach test

      I think you've found a pretty valid hypothesis there! If you're right. It's probably why I feel like it's relatable to me. Orrrr, as you said, it all could just be nonsense haha

    • @TheAndrewlawlrence

      +ryan wilson It's undoubtedly about dying. It's just a well written poem about experiencing your own death.
      He's "staring at the sun" because he's on his back dying
      "Your bodies over me" is his loved ones trying to help or being with him as he passes.
      "All the tumults done" (tumult meaning "noise and confusion" because death brings peace
      which is also why "His concious is clear" and he can't tell if what he's feeling is "pain or ecstasy" He knows his body is in pain from what ever is killing him but it's bringing him to peace.
      Then the final verse is "letting loose lips kiss him" (his loved ones saying good bye) while his soul trancends "pouring out like light, like answering to the sun", which people with near death experiences recall seeing.
      Also after explaining about the pain and ecstacy he's feeling, he says "And we were all weaned my dearUpon the same fatigue". Saying, we all will die one day, but it's a good thing, don't be afraid of it, hence "Note the trees because, The dirt is temporary, More to mine than fact face, Name and monetary"
      This all is explained in a third person store after the intro line
      "Cross the street from your storefront cemetery
      Hear me hailing from inside and realize I"
      You, the audience, have walked past his grave and this is what he wants to tell you about the beauty of death. He wants you to not feel sad that he died, but happy that he lived.

    Saw these guys on tour when they opened for the faint years back. While waiting for the faint’s Merch booth to clear(or open, I don’t remember anymore but it’s irrelevant), these guys started. They were good. Eh, they were great. But when they played this. It was harder. It fucking rocked. That faint shirt that thought it was coming home with me already knew what was up. They rocked. And it was awesome. Just for the record, the faint also rocked too. They were double fucking awesome and it was banging. But tv just caught me by surprise in the best of ways that night. I miss la zone rosa...

    I don’t think people actually realize just how futuristic this song really was. Way ahead of its time. Nobody was using 808 in 2003 unless it was for house music. Hip-hop producers weren’t even using 808 Beats like that.
