Deerhoof – Running Thoughts Lyrics 17 years ago
i haven't heard much old deerhoof, but they do indeed have a ton of pop sensibility. their hooks are so subtle you can barely deem them hooks, but they do rub my ears the right way.

The National – Green Gloves Lyrics 18 years ago
Wow! Such enticing sounds are created in the beginning of this song. As soon as I heard that second guitar come in, I knew it was going to be one of my favourites.

The lyrics are pretty strange. What is the symbolism of the green gloves that give him power over other people? Is it an alcohol induced fantasy?

Matthew Good – Double Life Lyrics 20 years ago
The thought of a girl wetting herself turns me on. ^_-

The folks at the NF forums don't like this track too much, but I've always loved this song. You're right, the solo/bridge type thing in it is really awesome. I can't really figure out the meaning of it though, there isn't much to work with. Just from the title I'm guessing it might mean something about trying not to be somebody else, and just be yourself.

Matthew Good – Near Fantastica Lyrics 20 years ago
Has anyone heard the acoustic version of this song? It's one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. It's even better than the album version, and that alone was already one of my favourite Matt Good songs. Here's a link if you want to check it out. I highly recommend it.

Matthew Good – Blue Skies Over Bad Lands Lyrics 20 years ago
I agree. This is definately the best track on WLRRR. However, I've heard of a lot of people who dislike it. Couldn't imagine why.

The Mars Volta – Cassandra Gemini Lyrics 20 years ago
There are various meanings scattered about this album. For example, from this very song...


There was a frail syrup dripping off
His lap danced lapel, punctuated by her
Decrepit prowl she washed down the hatching
Gizzard soft as a mane of needles
His orifice icicles hemorrhaged
By combing her torso to a pile
Perspired the trophy shelves made room for his collapse
She was a mink handjob in sarcophagus heels

What I'm getting from it is a seductive woman who tricks her victims into intercourse, then kills them, and enjoy it.

"The trophy shelves made room for his collapse"

I don't think they are talking literally, but they are saying that she takes much pride in her dirty deeds.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Purple Haze Lyrics 20 years ago
He doesn't know whether he's coming up or down.

Sounds like its about drugs to me. However, Purple Haze definately isn't the best Hendrix track. The Axis was probably my favourite album from him.

The Mars Volta – Cassandra Gemini Lyrics 20 years ago
I was at first confused when I read all of you talking about half hour epics. Cassandra, or atleast on my copy of the album, has five listed tracks that probably total up to 15 minutes. Then I realised, when I looked at the lyrics...

"I think I've become one of the others"

that you must be measuring Cassandra from part B of Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore, called "Pour Another Icepick". Seeing as Miranda has 4 parts itself, you all must be thinking that Cassandra has an additional 15 minutes, but really, those tracks belong to Miranda. Cassandra A: Tarantism is the first " Cassandra track listed on my album.


Unless my copy of the album is strange for some reason, and arranged differently, which I highly doubt.

A Perfect Circle – When The Levee Breaks Lyrics 21 years ago
I don't even know why anyone can compare this to the Led Zeppelin version. Now, Led Zeppelin and APC are my two favourite bands, believe it or not, and APC's version is a COMPLETELY different song. It has a different mellow feel to it. Its much less harsh than the LZ version.

I like both but I like the APC better because Zep had better songs...Since I've been loving you, No Quarter, Dazed and COnfused etc.

Wilco hit the nail on the head. This really isn't a hard song to understand, but it is one of my favourite hendrix.

When I first read what you said, Proyas, it seemed completely made up, but once I took a hard look at the lyrics, I saw where you were coming from.

Matthew Good – Avalanche Lyrics 21 years ago
I'm sort of puzzled about this one...

"The world's spinning and we're laughing
And I'm charming, the devil's charming
And we're ruined but we're still building "

Its clearly saying how we are/have destroying/destroyed the world, but we don't realize it, and continue with our lives but...

"Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, hell down through the trees"

Its sort of saying the "avalanche" is inside of him. As though he's falling apart inside himself.

Pretty deep I guess.
