This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
pulverization of your steel constructions
it symbolizes this worlds destruction
the statues of progression
they're built on quicksand
with the intent to collaps, it seems
prophets of calamity proclaimed their visions
worlds fell into oblivion
we all are parasites
only consume and never create
so in this age of wealth we seem to stagnate
our greed of conquer brought us this far
orchestrators of human suffering
paralyzed by greed
can't see their realm is crumbling
paralyzed by greed
we all are parasites
prophets of calamity proclaimed their visions
worlds fell into oblivion
are we still superior or did we become inferior?
[explanation] - the wellknown scientist Spencer once formulated a theory which said that evolution is a process that consists of a phase of destruction, always followed by a phase of rebuilding. if we do not change our patterns of consumption, there wil be nothing left to rebuild. the deterioration of our earth goes on undeminishedly. the different sources of energy are getting depleted, contamination becomes worse, there are almosts no forests left. everyone knows the problems, everyone knows the solutions, but still nothing is done. self-interest and greed seem to be more important than the future of our world and this of course implicates the human race's future. we believe all thes problems can be reduced to one predominant cause: our feeling of superiority. we, in the western world, have always felt superior towards the earth and towards other civilizations (although we did not call them liek this). it's time to realize that we are not better than the people living beneath the equator. in fact, concerning their humbleness towards our earth, we can learn a lot from them. we belong to the earth, the earth does not belong to us. -

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Gentle Hour

Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
