Ceres - Drag It Down On You (September 2, 2016) Album • Page 4

Glad other people like it as much as I do, I've been like is it me or is this incredible song writing

 

That's one of my favorite moments I've heard in a song in a long time, haha. I can't believe how good this album is

 

91 Your House might have some
of the best

"we put you in the ground but the dirt, it don't deserve you. I won't make a sound let me hurt, I won't tell you. I am such a piece of shit, it's okay come on let's all admit it"

 

got off the subway and didn't want to go back to my apartment. threw this on and it has hit me on a whole new level as I walked around. there's something about this album...

 

Got my physical CD today. Just a boring jewel case but at least I can hold it now. I don't like only having digital copies of albums especially ones I find really great. Had to get it from an amazon seller that imports though was like $20.


EDIT:

Pretty long interview.

A very casual chat with Ceres - Casual Band Blogger

Great info though. also he says there are 2 B-sides from this album...WHERE?!

 

I listened to this a couple times when they streamed it on Rolling Stone. I really liked it! Now I'm listening to it again for the first time since then, and I looooove it!

But why does the first song just randomly cut off at the end?! I kinda hate that, haha.

 

Ceres' Tom Lanyon Reveals The 6 Albums That Changed His Life - Music Feeds

 

I thought it was weird at first now I'm singing along like

"would that be okay?

would be oh-"

*Happy In Your Head intro*

ahhh yeahhh

 

it oddly works and I can't put my finger on why

 

Maybe it's like the singer is getting interrupted by his thought/question and he's about to get a response or maybe the whole thing is a dream sequence and his forced awake by the sound of his clock radio playing "Happy In Your Head".

The meaning of the next song ties decently well into this idea

"”Happy In Your Head is about finally realising you aren’t in someone’s life anymore. You’re just a memory in their head and for some sick, sad reason – you are happy enough with that. That that’ll do. It’s the best you’ve got.”-Tom


Or maybe they just thought it would be cool if the song cut off.

 

I thought it was because the song was written ten years ago, and since a lot of the album is about his past, i figured it was a metaphor for his youth ending too quickly

 

Listening for the first time now and really digging it.

 

Just wait til your third or fourth time through it! It gets better every time.

 

This is definitely something I see you liking haha. Be sure to check out their first one, I Don't Want to Be Anywhere But Here

 

will i like this

 

I think you'll like a couple tracks. It's in a similar vein to a poppier Hotelier. I don't know if you'll love it but it's worth a listen IMO

 

maybe i'll give it a listen tonight before tomorrow overwhelms me, think i have like 7-10 releases tomorrow i'm excited for, hah

 

Good call haha. Tomorrow's a massive day for releases!

 

yeah this is definitely enjoyable at least. don't know how much i'll go back to it but maybe i'll be drawn back at some point

 

don't hear hotelier though...there's something i do though...ugh

 

talking is a very good song

 

I think it's that they play w structure pretty similarly, at least in my mind

 

holy shit this is good.
