Aawwwesome. 

 

Album cover's now sitting on my wall, in between Bone Machine and Dear Science.

Awwwwesoome.

Shit, this turned out really well.

And what the FUCK is that guitar/bass sound on ROYAL BLOOD?  So broken!  So cool!

The last three songs, especially, are exceptionally written and arranged.  I love the stereo bouncing and vocal harmonies.

All right.  Listened to the whole thing.  I really like narrative that's carried throughout the album.  I can definitely get some strong visuals for the different songs.  This would probably make a really strong short animated film if you ever decided to try that out.  I really like the way Serve I, Slave Boy transitions into Royal Blood.  You have the Slave boy serving his master and his master basically laughing at him then it sinks into Slave boy's head that the only way he's gonna get out is by taking matters into his own hands.

Still need to listen to it a couple more times all the way through, but I played those two back to back a couple times on the drive in this morning.

That's so great.  It's floppy and broken and awesome.

PuPPy, do you have lyrics? Ben is trying to sing along to it in the car and it would be much better if he knew what words he was meant to be singing. ^_^

Drawn Out (they keep me in the basement)

Crying in the dark,
so pathetic to write about,
empty as a park
full of nothing.

Crying in the dark,
so pathetic to sing about,
writhing in the dark.
Wonder if they'll ever let me out...

It's the same old empty routine that we draw out.

Crying
In the dark
Emo children
And layabouts

Trying to be quiet, like they told me.
Maybe then they
will let me out.

the same old empty routine that we draw out.



Cheer Up, Slave Boy

Cheer up slave boy
We'll have our day
Cheer up slave boy
Even though your skies are grey
Cheer up slave boy
You're not alone in the dark

Cheer up slave boy/how can I even get up off the floor
Cheer up slave boy/I don't even know what I'm breathing for
Cheer up slave boy/How can I expect to pass the day
Don't cry, slave boy/when all I want is to pass the day

(I've got a plan)

Cheer up slaveboy, cheer up slaveboy, cheer up slaveboy,
we're gonna kill them all



Serve I, Slave Boy

Hey boy! Get me some more martinis, HEY my guests are getting cold, turn up the central heating!
Hey boy! Bring me some chips and some dips and some nuts - NO! Don't have some yourself! You'll make them dirty! Just put them on the plate and go!
Hey boy! Do what I say! And maybe I'll give you something to dim the pain.

Hey boy! Rub my cousins feet! She has a foot ache. Really, dig into that skin!
Hey boy! Whaddayou need a beating? I shouldn't have to tell you twice! You heard me now begin!

Hey boy! Do what I say! And maybe I'll give you something...
Hey boy! Do what I say! And maybe I'll give you something to dim the pain.

you dance, like you wanna dance
you see, like you wanna see
you dance, like you wanna dance
you see, like you wanna see

If I do what you say
If I do what you tell me
Will you stop the pain?



ROYAL BLOOD

No lights beside me
No might to hide me
Nothing but your command to guide me

No filled in feelings
No broken ceilings
No voice can cheer me from this hole

I'm not your slaveboy
You're not my godthing
You're not my royal blooded king

I'm not your slaveboy
You're not my godthing
You're not my royal blooded king

No lights beside me
No might to hide me
Nothing but your command to guide me

No filled in feelings
No broken ceilings
No voice can cheer me from this hole

I'm not your slaveboy
You're not my godthing
You're not my royal blooded king

I'm not your slaveboy
You're not my godthing
You're not my royal blooded king

I'm not your slaveboy/we're gonna kill them all
I'm not your slaveboy/we're gonna kill them all
I'm not your slaveboy/we're gonna kill them all
I'm not your slaveboy/we're gonna kill them
all

DIE DIE DIE DIE
DIE DIE DIE DIE
DIE DIE DIE DIE
DIE DIE DIE DIE



Like a Drug

This is like a drug it's like a drug
High on death and love and hills above

My crimson skies are never ending
Cut me open stop pretending

Luminescent rainbows folding
Got no pots of gold in holding

x4



only friend

Your only friend
in the world
Is the one who died in the fire

The cost of freedom
is a girl
Your only friend in the world.

Now fill your head with new dreams
And never let them expire

But don't forget
Though it's dawn
Your only friend
Is gone.

Your only friend
Your only friend
Your only friend
Is gone

Your only friend
Your only friend
Your only friend
Is gone

Your only friend
in the world
Is the one who died in the fire

The cost of freedom
is a girl
your only friend... in the world

Your only friend
Your only friend
Your only friend
is gone

your only friend
your only friend
your only friend
is gone



Underground Slavery Revolution

We're goin' underground
Ain't gonna make a sound
Just gonna paint the walls
Red with revolution

Ain't got no melodies
Ain't got no enemies
their bodies lying long
live the revolution!

(cheer up slave boy)
                          (crying in the dark)

Your body's monochrome
My eyes are overblown
The semi-comatose cries
of revolution

New lines in front of me but
All I can ever see
Is what you did to me
My God is revolution

Your body's monochrome
               (New lines in front of me but)
My eyes are overblown
                (All I can ever see)
The semi-comatose cries
                 (Is what you did to me)
of revolution

New lines in front of me but
                (Your body's monochrome)
All I can ever see
           (My eyes are overblown)
Is what you did to me
                (The semi-comatose)
My God is revolution

Your body's monochrome
               (New lines in front of me but)
My eyes are overblown
                (All I can ever see)
The semi-comatose cries
                 (Is what you did to me)
of revolution

New lines in front of me but
                (Your body's monochrome)
All I can ever see
           (My eyes are overblown)
Is what you did to me
                (The semi-comatose)
My God is revolution

I like the combo of Serve I, Slave Boy and Royal Blood the best. I LOVE the music in SISB, and the voice you use, and it goes so well with RB. ^_^

SELL IT TOOO USSSSSS.
