ive come to realize reading over this thread that Daryl is both a great lyricist and a fucking nonsensical one
So thanks to all of this hype I've gotten Junkies stuck in my head again Definitely like a top 3 song of theirs for me
I wish the lyrics to “Siberian Kiss” were different because his vocal performance on that song is WILD
So are you guys saying we should collectively rewrite the lyrics to that whole album ourselves? I'm in.
They're dodgy lyrics, but it helps to think of it as a concept album about a character, not Daryl's actual thoughts. I know that's not necessarily the truth, but it's easier to justify it as "oh here's a deliberate exaggeration of some nasty thoughts he's had in order to create a character that's telling the story of the album", imo. Still doesn't really work for Piano though. That song is just straight fucked up.
I keep refreshing their website since it auto directs to merch direct now - need a vinyl preorder stat
