Citadel Lyrics
This song is about Candy Darling - she was a warhol girl, more specifically she was a beautiful trans girl, one of the first in the united states to get on HRT ( hormone replacement therapy). You are missed Candy Darling.
I always felt the words Candy and Taffy were the names of girls

@horowizard you are correct. Look up Candy Darling ( andy warhol )

Premetal; doomy fantasy lyrics, sung from a witness perspective. Massive riff. Big drums out of time, adding to sense of brewing chaos. The album is far more than an answer to Peppers.
that first tone is very bad for ears, can damage them if its playing very loud
yea, it can. take it quiet and psychedelic)) beautiful strings arranged by John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin
Beautiful, poetic capturing of the spirit of modern urban life. A psychedelic rhapsody on the idea of the "citadel", ranging from "big city" imagery right on down to the very core of identity; that we erect the wall between "me" and "you" so we can play the game of individual identity.
And... Add to all that, the fact that Citadel is good old, solid, danceable, tranceable rock'n'roll! I was weaned on this stuff, and I still respond to it!
I have always REALLY liked those opening chords!
What are they?
They're good and loud of course, but why are they worse for our ears than other chords?
I think he/she was talking about that weird super high-pitched sound. I suspect it was laid on separately; sounds like picking behind the bridge of an electric. Great effect!
