Scott Walker - The Drift - Track 09

[kaylancom]

If you don't get it, you have failed your IQ exams. You may leave the room. Stupid!

[6666hoopick]

In 2016, it will be the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney's passing away. I sincerely hope they play this at the service, there won't be a dry eye in the house.

@MrTonyfreeman7: Your logic is flawed and your opinion is trash. It's not because you know two industrial pioneers that you know everything about music. I saw most of your comments and you're always using the same argument, it's laughable. I love NNW and ENN, I feel sorry that someone like you is allowed to used their names for such poor criticism. At least try to elaborate on why you don't like his music instead of using "overrated" as a crutch. Then people might respect your opinion.

[MutantClannfear]

Jesus Christ...it's like the final rambling moans of a dying alien. No sleep for me tonight.

[Myfriendfats8]

pseudo-innovators?....ugh, i don't like it when a genius artist is bashed on by some dickhead.

[MusicalTree3]

I'm glad I'm not home alone. I used to love Donald duck what's the matter with him? Glad there were no Francis Bacon paintings in this one. (That sink was bad enough). Now I have to sleep!

[enjoypolydor]

What the actual fuck

[DoctorRazzArea4]

Scott Walker is unbelievably talented

[reiyeka]

Color me intrigued.

[TheGeraldemerald]

Scott Walker should make an album with Talk Talk, produced by FaltyDL and Objekt!

[itookallthenames]

I saw the comments and thought, "surely, it doesn't sound like death metal donald duck". Got to 4.19. Yep, it sounds like death metal donald duck. Brilliant regardless.

[acidbubblebath77]

death metal donald duck.

[nameofthepen]

The lyrics promise "World about to end...World about to end...",

Shoulda come 5 1/2 minutes ago. :-/

[TheAdultChild101]

This sounds like Bryan Ferry on a really bad day.

[phreestylesk8r]

this album will be the soundtrack to the apocolypse

[jik7864]

The Evil Hardcore Donald Duck is impossible to listen. I never saw a so brain-to-dust-reducer music.

[Heisenberg85]

Shut up, stupid

[FunkyFudgeify]

it is once upon a time in the west , too

[sspirits8]

Oh my god, what the hell? Weird ending.

[sonicyouthinphants]

cuando hace tiempo el abismo te observa, ahora comienza a sacudirte ..(?)☼

[MusicalEutopia]

No matter how greatly you love this album, you can't help but find the top-rated comments funny.

[eduardojotass]

The Drift, un album muy singular... un viaje mas loco que la conchadesumare!!!

[LesterStone]

@eduardojotass Recuerdo que este disco siempre lo escuchaba en mis viajes en micro por la noche, regresando del trabajo. Nunca se me ocurriría hacerlo solo y a oscuras, nunca. Alucinante, este tipo de material te cambia la idea sobre cual es la función de la música, no hay muchas cosas que te hagan plantearte ese tipo de interrogantes.

[eduardojotass]

@LesterStone Alucinante brother, osea que despues del trabajo llegabas a casa con todo el Drift en tú cabeza! ufff... yo lo escuchaba en casa y salía luego... es un disco MUY intenso.

[Arglactable]

Did he just creep me the fuck out with Donald Duck vocals or did I just lose my mind?

[lukeyboy123able]

Oh Scott....you haven't been a well boy, have you?!

[leonakita]

Definitely not for the wine and cheese crowd !

[moralreef]

donald duck this goth mid-life crisis is going too far now

[FlatStanley65]

stella,you just dont get it.this is beyond you.get back to your cliff richard nonsence.

[puteisaman]

This is terrifying!! Feels like witchcraft...cue uneasy laughter. I like it, I've never been so frightened by music.

[frippp66]

It's not the most cheering of music - I wouldn't necessarily put it on at a birthday party. But I like his mournful singing - and the originality of the piece.

[jeankroberts]

i am sorry im more composed now its brilliant its just the end so unexpected hope i did not offend.

[jeankroberts]

oh my god i love scott walker but ive tried so hard to listen to this but ive just fell to pieces laughing at the end so sorry i cart stop laughing was i suppose too....brilliant.

[KingCrimson82]

i cant believe this..

genuis

[kornflayx]

"warturtle"? donald is a pokemon fan

[TheFingerbang1]

I love how the ending sounds like Swans but with an actually bird on vocals instead of Michael Gira.

[StellaPolaris07]

"alternative" to what? Talent? It's just shite and you know it is.

[lyonslaforet]

The Drift (2006) is much more intense than Tilt (1995) and much more bleak. Don't listen to it if you've got the blues!

[smellslikeandi67]

all music is 'alternative' to other genres, That word ceased to have meaning years ago.

[feydragrey7]

this is great,but einsturzende neubauten were doing the whole deconstruction of music,bash on wood,metal and meat things years before scott walker.

[LouiseFRhodes]

@feydragrey7 Why does it matter who did it first?

[feydragrey7]

it doesnt but people where commenting on his originality for doing so.

[Aschenmonster]

...and cavemen did it millenia before Einsturzende Neubauten. All were completely effective.

[echopractic]

Yes, they're wonderful innovators. But do they have a demented Daffy Duck singing "What's up Doc"?

[LiteracyLabyrinth]

Donald Duck has joined Radiohead - nice combination. LOL

[KingCrimson776]

@LiteracyLabyrinth It's closer to Donald Duck and solo Johnny Greenwood... this is a way more fucked up than Radiohead would dare to be.

[JBT24]

@LiteracyLabyrinth Radiohead?......ugh, I don't like it when a genius artist is compared to pseudo-innovators.

[chavochavo22]

@JBT24 I agree double UGH!

[aledw]

@LiteracyLabyrinth New York Ripper. Lucio Fulci. 1982.

[Chesterton7]

Such a weird and original songwriter.

[rockon3691]

its nice to know what donald duck is up to these days 4:19

[d3vak]

@rockon3691 omfg loooooooooooooool u made piss in my pants

[Orochimaru666999]

uhmmm this is not alternative ._.

[thisIsSteveC]

@Orochimaru666999 : radio took "alternative" and used it for music that was more edgy, or, an alternative listening means compared to "easy listening" music. either way, radio = pop/academic structures

and just to be clear. if i had to label this, i'd say it's punk.

[RufusaurusDex]

Aah... So ugly, yet so very, very pretty...

[jp235]

I first heard this track at 1am in a dark room, through loud headphones. I didn't sleep for 2 nights afterwards!

And to think that people say the Blair Witch Prject is scary!

[PanosNoneMoreBlack]

Pussy.

[rockgod111]

listen to slug bait by throbbing gristle and read the lyrics. you wont sleep for weeks.

[23discordians]

Do you really think it is scarier than this? In fact, is it really scary at all? Sure, it has disgusting lyrics, but it all sounds a bit contrived, to my ears anyway. The are several songs on the drift that are genuinley unnerving, in a way that I can't compare to any other music.

[rockgod111]

well no, i never stated that. i was just sharing a song which i also found kinda scaryand ya....well.......your face is contrived.
