One of my most favorite songs ever, it gives off a sense of dread at the beginning. The only lyrics in this song is simply dreadful. The dark ambience gives off an oppressive feeling, the World has seemingly ended. As the poem is read, violins overtake the dark ambience into a hopeless situation. Guitars fade in, and you're left thinking about the poem that was read to you. When it ends, trains ar... » Continue Reading
So, another post relating music, despite already having posting my song of the day, I just want to say, I relate to Dirt by Cyborg9k , this year has been in alot of ways, been a blessing to me, but these last weeks of school have made me feel like, well, dirt. I am failing one class that I want to succeed in, and I am failing in a class I was told to give » Continue Reading
A song by my favorite Cyborg, who turns out to have a past, who ought to thought? Anyways, it's a more punkish song, catchy and another earworm. The guitars are catchy, funky... loveable, would be a word to describe them. It's a very nostalgic song about his bike, I think. The lyrics are about him and his bike as a child. The lyrics is a sort of nostalgic lamentation, how he would wish to change t... » Continue Reading
A punk, angsty song by the French-language Canadian post-rock band Fly Pan Am. The song, although has a weak start, has a very riot-esque feel to it. The song's repetition works in favor of the song, and has a very intense anger to it. Towards the end however, it devolves into avant-garde chaos. The rest of the album is sort of a hard listen, I think Fly Pan Am is a very hit or miss band when it c... » Continue Reading
I sit here, helpless and unworthy. I fight inner demons, I am a David to a Goliath, but I do not compare to what David had. I am unworthy by myself. I am helpless by myself. Without Christ, I would be nothing but a shell. Without Christ, I would be meaningless. Without Christ, What am I? » Continue Reading
A very different song from what I have been posting for this past week. This song, is much darker, more synth heavy electronic dance music that I love. This song gives out a dark scheme being planned vibe, like a Netrunner getting ready to hack a bank or something. It just gives off those criminal vibes. It is instrumental, if you don't count the "bitch, snitch, bicks" as lyrics. So, if you're int... » Continue Reading
I feel like I'm a proponent for free thinking, right? Everyone should think for themselves, and if not, soak in opinions freely. I feel like that modern society is losing this ability of free thinking. Soon, with it, societal free will. Among short-form content, algorithms and AI, I feel like AI has been taking co-opting our ability to think for ourselves. We rely on it to write for us, we rely on... » Continue Reading
A song from Cyborg's second project, a drastic difference from his main project, this song is slow, methodical, droning. It tells a tale of a Japanese salaryman in Shibuya. He's sad, and he lives a fake life in public, and he works an endless loop. His only escape is when he smokes a cigarette everyday, and when he buys his tea and coffee (UCC). The instrumental features droning guitars, synths an... » Continue Reading
If I seem to be alternating between two artists, I am. For now. These are the two that I have been listening to, so please bare with me :) Either way, you probably don't care, and are here for good music, and I am here to bring you what I think is good music, and today's song is Reginald Barclay (the Nth Degree) by cyborg9k, a recent favorite artist of mine. The song, instrumental wise is beautifu... » Continue Reading
Another classic from our friends in Swe-... I mean, the glorious socialist haven of the German Democratic Republic. Another great earworm from IFA Wartburg, about a man contacting Berlin while stuck in the jungle. Assuming he's from the NVA, the Nationale Volksarmee it might be somewhere in Africa or Cuba, maybe even Vietnam, somewhere with a jungle and radio communication. Otherwise, if I'm wron... » Continue Reading
An earworm from the 1998 album "Im Dienste des Sozialismus" by a group of Swedes making fun of the East German government. In this particular song, there is no satirical commentary on the East German ideas of Communism, rather it is just a silly song. " Apfelstrudeln mit Marmelade » Continue Reading
A great song, with on-the-nose and poetic critiques of capitalism using some religious symbolism. "Not born a second too early To partake in worship of all that is worldly False idols delivered in Amazon boxes Consume all you want cause it's too late to stop this..." If you're into that whole e-rock scene, this is for you! the whole album is good, but this song is my favorite » Continue Reading
