Meno ottantaquatro. Eheeh.

Ho scoperto questo side-project del cantante e compositore dei Porcupine Tree, si chiama Blackfield ed è formato dallo stesso Steven Wilson e dall'artista non francese ma iraniano Aviv Geffen... Molto melanconici ma veramente veramente da ascoltare.


End of The World


Don't you forget what I've told you
So many years
We are hopeless and slaves to our fears
We're an accident called human beings

Don't be angry for loving the baby
And say it's unreal

So many lives turned to salt
Like roses who're hiding their thorns

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise

In your room doing nothing
But staring at flickering screens
Streets are empty, but still you can hear
Joy of children turning to tears

Disease hides around every corner
Quiet, lay still

Wait for a moment to hear
We forgot what is touch, what to feel

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise

Take this pill, it will make you feel dizzy
And then give you wings
Soon, boy, you'll fall into sleep
Without nightmares, without any fears
If you wake up in hell or in heaven
Tell the angels we're here
Waiting below for a dream
Here in the garden of sin

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise


ps: i Mew sono mediocri.

La rivoluzione della ragion pura

L'apatia regna. Eeh eh.
Ho notato che studiando e/o ascoltando musica il mio livello di inettitudine sembra temporaneamente diminuire. Ho finito il programma di CPS e ho iniziato SO. Inoltre, leggendo sul potentissimo Wikipedia, ho scoperto che i Muse vengono inseriti in un genere particolare anche detto New Prog, ovvero musica indie che include elementi di prog. Comunque, cliccando sulla tag ho scoperto un sacco di bei gruppi... Ho deciso di andare per ordine, e così ho iniziato con gli inglesi Pure Reason Revolution e il loro The Dark Third. Gran bell'album veramente. Anche qui c'è un mix strano di generi che non riesco esattamente ad estrapolare, però mi garba assai... Credo ci siano dentro un po' di Pink Floyd, tra l'altro.
Il mio prossimo ascolto saranno i Mew, che ho faticato a ordinare dal mulo in quanto ho scoperto -mio malgrado- che il termine "mew" è contenuto anche nel nome di un hentai... -_- Infine, dopo aver affinato le ricerce, sono riuscita a richiedere il loro cd "Frengers: Not Quite Friends But Not Quite Strangers". Il titolo mi sembra quantomeno interessante... La band è danese come i miei amati Kashmir, quindi le speranze sono buone. ^^
Alla prossima...

Stuck in square one (?)

You're in control, is there anywhere you wanna go?
You're in control, is there anything you wanna know?
The future's for discovering
The space in which we're travelling

From the top of the first page
To the end of the last day
From the start in your own way
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

Under the surface trying to break through
Deciphering the codes in you
I need a compass, draw me a map
I'm on the top, I can't get back

The first line on the first page
To the end of the last page
From the start in your own way
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
Oh, you just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

Is there anybody out there who
Is lost and hurt and lonely too
Are they bleeding all your colours into one?
and if you come undone
As if you've been run through
Some catapult it fired you
You wonder if your chance will ever come
Or if you're stuck in square one
