No Bird Sing - Land Mines (Live on The Local Show)

[krasava90]

can someone explain to me the meaning of this song? I understand that lyrics is pretty abstract, but about what is this song? i can't figure it out by myself)

[Packeranatic]

@krasava90

The chorus is key to this song:

16 land mines

17 pairs of feet

Don't Nobody move 'less you think

You're gonna grow some wings

This to me means that only 1 of 17 of us is getting out of this war alive and the rest of the song details survivor's guilt during the rest of his life:

Set to appear in visions on the fifteenth you gather old acquaintances

Hold their hands, grit your teeth, slip beneath your blanket

Try to get some sleep; you kissed the cheek of every cold epiphany now.

[HERBALSMOKE1]

Whatever happen to hdyer ali? And did they only drop one album...I can't get enough of this kind of music

[jihad497]

Does anyone remember the name of the group the vocalist was in before No Bird Sing? It's bothering me.

[RevilerMPLS]

@jihad497 Hyder Ali

This video gets me every time I fucking turn it on. If you pay attention towards the end you notice the raw emotion in his face. It's beautiful. It shows he not only writes meaningful lyrics, but also portrays them; which makes it real.

[DelvedMind]

where can I get this version? I have the album version but really feel this one

[Realistik84]

This is a great stuff, really enjoy all the music pumped out with Kristoff Krane as well.

Who downvotes this kind of stuff?

[slpmotofreak]

five people mistaked this for a justin beiber song

[DeathNote17s]

yo totally dig this first heard it a few days ago on 89.3 and knew this was prime.

[kmiller812]

This reminds of sage francis more than atmosphere. Oh, and Atmosphere sucks. Yeah, I said it. And for good measure, so does P.O.S. boom.

mad respect for the current though.

[B3NZOF3RRARI]

Stop being a hipster wannabe ''aav51c'' just because their vocals sound the same.. doesn't mean they aren't original... kids like you just conform...

[aav51c]

sounds too much like slug to be original

[hugozamayoa]

@aav51c this guy has too deep of a voice to sound like slug.

[Bob42jh]

DOPENESS =)

[sunstoneleo]

I saw you guys last night at First Ave. You were awesome!

[fishydies]

such a deep voice

[murmurrrr]

fancy guitar

[7octopusgarden18]

he sounds alot like slug

[timewarpin]

not the voice but the style kinda yes.

[SugarFreeRecordsUK]

You think? I don't see the similarity at all, if Eric Blair sounds like anyone else then it's Crescent Moon, that smokey voice...

[TheRealCMeta]

really? I think slug has a higher voice than him?

This song reminds me of Guarantees by Atmosphere though

[VenomousSixx]

the music is awesome..doesn't it sound a bit like post rock?

[rglovesu2]

I'm so glad you liked it, Sixx! I had a sneaking suspicion you would... :)

[k0ng0fw0rld]

This Is Art.

[allendupras]

@k0ng0fw0rld this IS Art.

[rglovesu2]

The Current is constantly opening my eyes (and ears) to music I would have never heard otherwise. This is incredible.

[nobirdsing]

The guitar is a National resonator. Used to be Charlie Parr's guitar. Now it's putsing around with a hip-hop band.

[bellabeauty88]

hope you guys win for the best video for the TC awards this Feb

[TheLMack]

This song is straight dope. Can someone tell me what kind of guitar that is; the metal one?

[marixiou]

This is so incredible.

Good job!

[redhousefilm]

Everything comes together in this song. If i heard everything by itself i wouldn't think it would sound good together, but i am wrong.
