LOL!

Mr Dude did this in that other DN thread (which is gone or something?) - I love the damned lyrics!

 

I was beating up babies

babies I mean

that don't look like babies

but they're babies to me

 

People that is fucking kickass writing. PJ Harvey. Minutemen shit.

The first listen I was "did I just hear 'I was beatin up babies'?"

And the feel, the noises, the weird momentum - still hearing this as an album opener. If this replaced The Song, and everything else stayed the same, this would be a WHOLE other album.

You are so god damn right. I was just about to say something along those lines, but srsly. bingo,.

I feel somewhat obligated at this point, assuming that it hasn't already been stated, to bring attention to the fact that "Bull Black Nova" is a long and semi-convoluted reference to Pulp Fiction. First and foremost, the obvious; The car used is a 1974 Chevy Nova. Okay, so it's not bull black...

"It's in my hair

It's on my clothes" aka. Brains and blood everywhere... When they shot Marvin.

I mean that seems to be the most stand out lyric of the song that relates to pulp fiction, but if you just read the lyrics it really starts to come together.

Sadly enough, after I read this the song "Bull Black Nova" became much less affecting and personal to me. It's like listening to Tears in Heaven and then realising that it was inspired by a kleenex advertisement.

For me personally I enjoy this combination the majority of the time:

Suburban-Summerteeth

Highway- A Ghost is Born

Something about A Ghost is born makes me feel like I'm traveling at a much faster rate than I actually am, I think mostly because the album is so "bassy" that it sort of drowns out everything else and gives the illusion of total vehicular seclusion (especially at night) and it aways seems that I get to my destination faster when I listen to it. Either that or I just become a very reckless driver.

I'd like to say that the song "Solitaire" is basically the musical equivalent to a satisfying morning dump.

I'm not terribly sure of the intent of "I'll fight", but the first thing I noticed was how close to "on and on and on" it sounds.

Thanks for the fast response and the warm welcome!

Hello, and I'm pretty sure this is my first post. the new song off of the rumored mermaid ave. 3, jolly banker, is excellent and i would like to play it some day. Let's collectively make mine and other people's dreams become a reality. (by tabbing the song)
