feast of the heart - hoop there it is!

there’s a light switch
baby you turned it on
don’t you ever leave me
here in the dark
and there’s a red room
deep in my house
you come and meet me
and i’ll lay down 

a feast of the heart

wherever great light there`s great shade II

i`ve never made a secret for prefering any kind of extroverted souls on live-stages. lead singer and guitarist ritzy ryan (since recovering her in early 2010 during a tv-live-snippet taken place in a smaller venue in cologne) seems to fit perfectly into my yield schematic of an infernal joy-filled rock stage hog in front of her london-based formidable band and implements with it that special key stimulus admirable. her splendidly way of impressive, supercharged and all-consuming performing and interacting seems to be a natural. on its own how she grooves into "little blimp"s first sequenz with a sly look and rapting smile let us recognize her immediate stage presence - vibrant, electrifying - anyhow in such a manner natural and relaxed by feeling her mission with every neuron followed by wild and runaway passages as a permeable rock`n roll drive lets through her passion during a fucking stunning rock song without any agreements. everything vibrates and crackles with roaring back drums. bang!

by the way: the second sequenz leds into a masterpiece feedback-noise-odyssey beginning after 5 minutes. what a style to end "the everchanging spectrum of a lie"!

disarming & fragile & embracing

i'll be a thorn in your side
till you die
i'll be a thorn in your side
for always
we sink
we lift our love

i'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens
and the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
the way is long but you can make it easy on me
and the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling 

bless my heart! 

this adorable female voice from lauren mayberry is such a piece of jewelry! so totally engaging, fragile and embracing altogether! haunting melodies in barrels from the bottom of  heart. absolutlely amazing artists! as well as chvrches` fantastic mixture of somnambulistic & heartwarming fluent electro-synthpop clouds. for sure one of scotland`s currently most promising music talents and nothing else!

hotel belfort

take your things and have them
nothing else will come
know that you are dying
and who you are is done

know that you are living
and how many were before
sing for the sake of singing
and don't think that it means more

 

broken watch doesn't stop time
war is always a decision
nothing will ever be mine
and this song is an invention

if you follow our paths concentrative you might know as well that one of our characteristics in locating things in music has always been bringing forward exquisite b-sides and rare non album tracks of our beloved bands. in that case i highly recommend you one of my personal nuggets once more. a certain restrained song named `hotel belfort`, performed by sophie hunger in mostly during one of their encores. as a critical currently female artist sophie hits ravages of time - willingly as well she does that with a pinch of humour and three drops of ironic reliance for sure and a massive overdose pitch of her brillant voice - special ingredients what makes her unique indeed. once i `ve often written down parts of her contemplative and dizzying lyrics together. now it`s time to relocate her distincitve words and genius vocals again...

brand new everything story
