fuckin hell, the chorus of whatever song they're playing right now sounds so good edit: i think it was Goodness Pt 2 i'm trying to make out what Ben & Chris(?) were yelling in the background vox of it; "(Liiiiight snoooow) Make me feel alii-iiive! Make me feel alive!"
oh ok. i was just skimming through the periscope vid so i didnt hear it. Ill sit down later and give it full attention. so im guessing the song i heard with the sharp piano chords at the beginning was "Piano Player" then
I'm gonna listen through this one last time and then wait. If possible this has me even more excited, ha.
i only watched a lil bit of the stream before it cut out. i don't know if i wanna go back and watch the full vid. i want my first time listening to the record to be the recorded quality version or whatever
I think the final section of this album is going to have to really bring it to beat the middle section.
Lyrics to "Soft Animal" in case anyone's interested: "We were cloaked in the awning of night or early morning. Through the headboard there's a flicker of light and light warning. Sophie's on the bunk overhead reading Mary Oliver while I lay still in my bed. That's when I see you there. Fawn doe, light snow. Make me feel alive, make me believe that all my selves align. Fawn, doe, light snow. Spots on brown of white make me believe that it is all alright. Your soft face pressed to the wilt, first spring sunrise standing low on quivering stilts. In attempting to keep you to stay I am raising no alarm. It is just us two alone. Then I feel a sigh of wind, your raising eyes a rolling fog that lets you hide and I can hear the rustling as you go. Oh, go slow. Fawn, doe, light snow. Make me feel alive. Make me believe that I don't have to die. Fawn, doe, light snow. Spots on brown of white make me believe that there's a God sometimes. The ring around a mothers heart grows saccharine then falls apart and I can hear the rustling as you go. You camouflaged or clearly seen and nameless in the in-between and I can hear the rustling as you go. The firing of rifles off the echo hits you hard enough and I can hear the rustling as you go. A soft and skittish self inside shines golden, opal, chrysolite and I can feel the rustling as you go. Oh, go slow. A mob a voices harmonize and tell me that your not alive but I can feel the rustling as you go."
did you transcribe those or did you find the bandcamp cache? haha they've been doing a v v poor job of keeping their lyrics under wraps, and i'm not just talking about their bandcamp :/
Haha I found the bandcamp cache by pure chance while looking for a video of the song. Honestly, I thought about spoiler tagging it because of all the hype and anticipation for the album. Can you spoiler tag on here yet? Yep!
