This song was featured on NPR's 'All Songs Considered' as one of the truly scary songs to listen to as opposed to traditional Halloween songs that aren't really scary at all.
Of their list, this is my favorite. Reminds me of Dead Could Dance musically.
If it's so easy why aren't you doing it and being a cult success? There's more to music than just skill. Maybe people who like Liars like the melodies, or they like the primal nature of the drumming, or the atmosphere and texture of the piece.
And rapping is hard. Unless you're Kanye West and you just talk while autotuning your voice and everyone calls you a genius for some reason.
@juliandunn amen morning breath with love...and F*** t that dumb kanye guy, any who...cheers to music, cheers to listening to it,, cheers to enjoying it and simply appreciating the beautiful artist who are willing to share it with the world...Here Here...
@SeanIsaacBillings sure, i listen to bizarre music too, i absolutely love aphex twin, flying lotus, squarepusher, tokimonsta, daedalus... but yeah the american men have fascinating harmonies, its absolutely wonderful. check out "cool world" by them.
and warp is a label, very selective and do alot of bizarre music. you should check the label out! you can hear 30 second previews of the songs on "bleep. com" their website for selling it. i dont buy it there, too expensive, but it gives you an idea
@SeanIsaacBillings kisses to you. have you ever heard of american men? all these amazing bands seem to be on the best label world wide anyway. im sure you heard of "warp". fuck man i wish i could just compress this into a syringe and inject it. fuuuck.
i don't know,but yhis vid shoulda been called..... what music video artists do wen they're bored~((?)) Also,this vid looks like one of those mid 80's to early 90's music videos that u watched you were 12 or 13years old,and must've been on some type of drug you didn't know you were on,unknowingly givin to you by your mom or dad,at the time you wre watchin'...yea baby! yea!
To be honest, I have no idea. I almost never use review websites; I tend to find music through random web browsing and different small-time blogs. You'd be best off asking someone more qualified about that sort of thing.
Its about planet earth , people, about quetioning existence,religion(i guess a little disagreement with it :)), and about how they see themselves in all that. In a few words you could say "the meaning of life" . . .
Pitchfork is this awful website written by elitist indie hacks with ironic haircuts who pretend to know jack shit about music. They usually have Wikipedia in another tab, constantly getting facts wrong about the bands that they criticize. All-in-all, it's where people who know nothing about music go so they can impress ugly scenester chicks with their pseudo-knowledge of mostly crappy bands.
Dark, Hilarious, Smart, Dumb, Subversive, Childish, Evil. I really like this album. But it's not one to put on if you don't want to be in a dark mood.
This is definitely weird, and well, let's admit it, not that pretty or interesting, but it does capture the song really well. The visuals and song are just odd enought to make this work nicely.
i think it sounds very close to the song by the turtles called, "you showed me." you know, "you showed me how to do, all the things you do..." probably not what you're thinking of though...
yeah, i starting listening to these before i read anything on pitchfork. It was actually because they opened for radiohead, and I wanted to see what they were all about.
