Jessubmissive Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Oo, another one I've fallen down the rabbit-hole of is Clipping. I think I'm just a sucker for complex lyricism, what can I say? 2
AKM Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) No idea why (It's the exact same beat, doofus.), but 0:11-0:44 in the first one just reminded me very much of the second one, almost as if it were an intro. (Sigh. Really? Come on now! Think.) (It's about Rainbow Factory. This song, in its true context, and Rainbow Factory, its inspiration, perhaps(?) in the spoiler. WARNING: Pony pain, and lots of blood.) Spoiler And Rainbow Factory, SFMed: Edited May 12, 2022 by AKM

I think I'm just a sucker for complex lyricism, what can I say? Clipping's "Body and Blood" is so bloody - lol - good. When it comes to music, Spotify tells me I'm a lot into alternative/art rock, been getting into hyperpop too. Electric Six for me, remains such an underappreciated gem in terms of "I've been listening to you for like 10 years and yeah I look out for new releases" (they have great shitposts, "Gay Bar", "High Voltage", but dang, if you're a person who likes paying attention to words, they're so so good). Also hey hey hi Childish Gambino mention! Edited May 12, 2022 by Twenty-4our 2

Kashked Posted May 13, 2022 Posted May 13, 2022 So this song has to be in my personal top ten , Das Elfte Gebot (the 11th commandment). Great music, awesome lyrics. Lyrics, translated into english: The last battle is fought grey, heavy dust rolls over barren land Yet you lay there on a bier Besides you the reaper grins He quoths to you, asks for the truth, How you do and if you are happy. For the eleventh bidding commands to live life to the fullest As if death would take us tomorrow (x2) Thus tells us the eleventh bidding. Of the biddings ten are carved in stone. The reaper's holding tribunal God is dead, I remain. And my bidding shall be the eleventh For the eleventh bidding commands to live life to the fullest As if death would take us tomorrow (x2) Thus tells us the eleventh bidding. For the eleventh bidding commands to live life to the fullest As if death would take us tomorrow The eleventh bidding inspires us to love and to burn bright like a dying star - Thus tells us the eleventh bidding. The eleventh bidding That is not dead which can eternal lie and with strange aeons even death may die For the eleventh bidding commands to live life to the fullest As if death would take us tomorrow take us tomorrow take us tomorrow The eleventh bidding inspires us to love and to burn bright like a dying star - Thus tells us the eleventh bidding. Another all-time favourite: 1

Reveal hidden contents BTW that movie has him being shot down over FRY (former republic of Yugoslavia) but.....that is a west coast carrier and a west coast squadron. The letters on the tail stabilizer indicates the fleet and the air wing (for the most part there are a couple of exceptions). So, the first letter is fleet (Atlantic = A, Pacific = N) the second letter indicates air group (A =1st air group, B= 2nd air group, etc.) Also, even numbered Nimitz class carriers operate out of the west coast (CVN-70 (Carl Vinson) is the sister ship to my ship (D.D. Eisenhower, CVN-69). Anyway, Hollywood figures not many would care, and didn't bother to go to the Ike or the Lincoln to film the carrier shots.......as only East coast carriers operated in the Adriatic. 1

I did not know that. Carriers are rather large, eh? Like a few people working there? ?

Yep, there are a few people It was funny how the reactor department on an SSN (sub) was the size of our Reactor Operator division. Our Reactor Dept was about the same size as teh whole crew of the SSN. Spoiler 1
Idyll Posted May 14, 2022 Posted May 14, 2022 I found them not too long ago and I'm really digging their stuff, especially when they got something of a melody going instead of just raping their instruments like so many other bands do... 1
