Liars – Drum Gets a Glimpse Lyrics 14 years ago
To me this song paints an image a nuclear wasteland. The first voice is singing from where the bomb went off. You can here a geiger counter thought the song which is SO hauntingly beautiful, it swells with the instruments indicating deadly radiation poisoning. The first voice sounds very defeated and numb, the second voice is perhaps the voice of reason that tried to prevent this tragedy, sounding confident and relax, but offering little sympathy. This is one of the most atmospheric songs I've every heard, the swelling cymbals sound so much like like wind. It reminds me of that scene in call of duty 4 when a nuclear bomb goes off and you wake up in the after math and it's eerily peaceful, everything is tinted blood red and there a wind blowing the dust in one direction. You try to walk forward a bit and then fall down and die.
