will have a listen as the band does have some good muso's but the last album was generic poo as far as i'm concerned. It was like they just pulled the most popular parts out of their previous work and hacked them together. Also i definitely agree with Mark on the lyrics writing speed sucks a fat one, or maybe he is just so uber obscure that he is brilliant, but i think the former.
we sued to cover song of the damned and it really just made me cringe singing this crap... Maybe i need to get speed to give me the low-down on what he is on about before passing judgement but hey if you can make any sense of it your better than me.
Song Of The Damned
Postironic we laugh dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us
[Chorus]
Song of the damned, never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
This machine creates
what in some people's mouth is called art
Too hard to comprehend
Too hard but will not bend, we will not bend
So why are we trusting those cynical souls
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching-bleeding
with hearts open wide all so cold
Live for the moment get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching bleeding for nothing
for we've seen it all
Fast and furious we're riding with serpent speed
Through the essence, through the greed
Forcing ourselves to overcome this mystery
This restless degradation
temptation and our endless lust
Will bring us down - will bring us deeper down!
So why are we trusting those cynical souls
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching-bleeding with hearts
open wide all so cold
Live for the moment get killed for the thrill
Bleeding, aching, bleeding, aching bleeding for nothing
for we've seen it all
[Lead Wichers]
Postironic we laugh dream in sonic
Diamond overload
Drenched in fear by struck of lightning
Cause we're only listening with one ear now
This organism rips us apart, it feasts on us
Song of the damned, never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned, never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
Song of the damned, never ends, so don't pretend
We are condemned where we stand, where we stand
[Repeat]
