David Karsten Daniels - Falling Down

[TheRevK]

I was lucky enough to be one of five people in the room when DKD played a poorly advertised show in Minneapolis. He was still spellbinding. He is the real deal.

woah!!

I wish i had been there!

[megafawn]

driving fast on a icy mountain pass

we came bulleting off the road

and flailing, clutching anything

(my stomache in my throat)

I screamed to my passengers, "I love you"

and I prayed to what I do not know

I hoped we would not suffer

but the car it did not slow

[megafawn]

and flying through the darkness

not stopping, and missing all the trees

I couldn't help but remember

that thought i often think -

that maybe I'm invincible

I just don't think I can die

but in the seconds seeming like hours

I came to see I might

[megafawn]

cause every moment longer

I was quite sure we're gaining speed

the outcome seemed more certain

approaching terminal velocity

and I thought about the movies

a ball of flames, exploding noise

and all of it so romantic

falling down the mountain, plummetting with my boys

[megafawn]

and that's when we finally hit the ground

careening hundreds of feet

I knew we wouldn't go out pleasantly

(pressed into a tree)

but all the sudden we're just stopped there

intact, our limbs and heads

silent and not moving

amazed to find that we're not dead

-

we're amazed that we're not dead

David Karsten Daniels( is that his real name?) is amazing! Screw the guy at 1:28 who dares to walk away from such amazingness.

[markalamarama]

Hah! Actually, the guy at 1:28 is me (markalamarama). I was up front taking still shots while my video camera recorded at the rear of the venue (you'll notice there was no camera movement till I walk past back to the camera. I agree with you, David is an amazing talent.

[ormaneric]

simply amazing. i had doubts that he could pull off that chest voice note on the word "dead" but he BEASTED IT. wow. david is T-A-L-E-N-T-E-D

[dustyjbottoms]

check out his stuff with 'prayers and tears of arthur digby sellers'-also very good shit. he used to live in good ol chapel hill but moved very far away. i remember meeting him once...

This guy is so damn good. I heard the cd Fear of Flying playing in the background at a backyard bbq. I loved it right off. So I went up to find out who it was. The host laughed and said I was the 10th person to come up and ask that question. I picked it up the next day and then got the first one Sharp Teeth the day after that. So many great artists fly under the radar in the USA.
