I could get a splinter from a manger
And I could get a splinter from a cross
I could win the clothes of a criminal
And I could give my gold to a child
And I could read the prophecies
By the starlight, by that star's light
And I could see a sign above
A hanging, homeless heretic
I could smell the blood of the mother
And I could smell a sponge soaked with gall
I could hear a cry for a father
And I could hear the babe crying in free air
And I could feel my heart
Open wider, beating faster
And I could feel such hope
This may become a miracle
I could feed a fish to a dead man
And I could feed my cattle in his bed
I could feel fragile bones under swaddling clothes
And I could feel a hole in his side
And I could track their footsteps
Into Egypt
And I could see him rising
On a cloud into Heaven
Where's my metaphor?
Where's the metaphor?
Where'd it go?
Blackbird Blackbird gets shoegaze. It's not about putting a chorus effect on a guitar; it's about making your sound as saturated and heavy as possible, and he pulls it off well with bright synthpop. Just as Good as Ezra
Disasteradio's energetic, playful tone is infectious, like Andrew W.K. entirely with MIDI, & its lightheartedness and brisk pacing allow many repeat listens. This kind of manic optimism is truly rare. Just as Good as Ezra
This Calgary group makes goth-y post-punk attired in the brightly colorful arrangements of bleep-boop synthesized psychedelia. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 3, 2024
