| Eve 6 – Curtain Lyrics | 13 years ago |

I agree with ZoERae - this is about the band breaking up a few years ago. However, I think there is specific story behind it. I think it is about Max having to watch as Jon played on ("one door closes, another one opens") with Monsters Are Waiting. The song I think suggests that Jon quit the band. I thought it was interesting when Jon chose to play in MOW, a rather indie band - which I thought was great, by the way. I think he was rebelling against having played in a pop band. I think guys in pop-rock bands often feel slighted and want to try more "serious" music. Eventually though, he came back to Eve 6. Good pop music is infectious. |

Man, I love this song. It's absolutely brilliant how they can mix in a face-shredding guitar solo and pick up the tempo on a slow, emotion-provoking tune. By the way, I've never been to Seattle or the San Juans, but I want to, mainly because of this band. I nearly had to throw down for $500 plane tickets for a weekend trip to see their New Years Eve 2010 show in Seattle...should have...it would have been worth it. |

I don't think the whole boyfriend/girlfriend concept gives the song its due credit. MTB is a band of grown men and I assume the lyrics tell a tale of higher stakes between adults, perhaps socialites or aristocrats. Anyhow, I love the song, can't wait for the CD, and MTB is the Beethoven of our time! Their music is more than good - it's brilliant, catchy, capturing, all without being over-indulgent like most indie bands. |
