Hell Is For Heroes - To Die For

La aussi un groupe que j'adore, qui a eu un parcours pas forcément super facile. Après un premier album excellent et salué par la critique (The Neon Handshake), HIFH a été viré de sa maison de disques et a sorti un 2eme album (Transmit Disrupt) moins varié mais néanmoins très bon en indépendant. Il y a peu est sorti leur 3eme album éponyme et là aussi c'est la classe rien à dire. Pour le choix de la chanson j'ai hésité. Entre une chanson du 1er (Slow Song si vous la voulez demandez, elle est magnifique) et la 1ere du nouvel album. J'ai finalement opté pour cette dernière. Pourquoi? Très simple : j'ai été sur le cul à la première écoute. Une intro instrumentale qui n'en finit pas, mais dans le bon sens du terme, bien construite rien à dire. Puis on retrouve la voix caractéristique du chanteur. Que du bonheur. Alors certes cette construction n'est pas habituelle du groupe. Mais c'est tellement bien fait que ce choix et un moyen de saluer le travail bien fait.
Enjoy.



I stared until you were no longer in view
Just dust in my eyes
A dot on the horizon
Blends with the sky
Fades out of sight

Enter Shikari - Mothership

Enter Shikari, ou un groupe qui allie le genre emocore avec un clavier, et en plus en le faisant bien, ce qui apporte une touche d'originalité au genre.
Cette chanson a une pêche d'enfer.
Enjoy.




Go tell all your friends that this is the end
go tell all your friends that this is the end
go tell all your friends that this is the end
this is the end

i don't understand a word you're saying
what are the clouds running from?
there's something in the air tonight
something is wrong, spit it out!

I just fell from the mothership
(they said that)
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed

there's something in the air
there's something in the air
tonight, i'm wide awake, i'm wide awake
there's something in the air
there's something in the air
tonight, i'm wide awake, i'm wide awake

and i'll plead with a thousand voices

I am sane! I am sane!
Mothership Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com

I just fell from the mothership
(they said that)
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed

walk the plank! walk the plank! walk the plank!
walk the plank! walk the plank! walk the plank!
walk, the, plank!

your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed
your answers, they're always lying on the ocean bed

Biffy Clyro - Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies

1ere chanson du nouvel album de Biffy Clyro intitulé Puzzle, LIAPBED est une bombe. Ni plus ni moins. J'ai hésité entre mettre celle-là et la chanson dépressive de fin d'album ("I've forgotten how good it could be to feel alive" extrait des paroles pour situer), mais ça m'aurait emmerdé de pas mettre celle-ci. Pas plus de commentaires, place à l'écoute.
Enjoy.




Come on baby do you
Think it's good to feel
Like I'm lying here,
Swimming in memories?

I fear God because everything dies, babe
Got a gun in the back of my car .
This spasm of good sense
Is making my eyes twitch
I've had enough of your consulations.
I'm drowning, caught in a shit tide,
Take my face to the inside of love.
Nothing to eat but fears in the back seat.
Well I met God, and he had nothing to say to me.

I pray to god
That you're right before my eyes,
Bathed in white light,
With halos in your eyes.

Don't wanna waste no more time,
Time's what we don't have.
Everywhere I look, someone dies,
Wonder when it's my turn.

Hello, do you know me?
Leave an open door.
What you're looking for
Baby when you come down, come down.
I built a time machine to escape from
All the pain in the back of my car.
Living's a problem 'cause everything dies babe,
Save yourself, we're not too far away.

I pray to god
That you're right before my eyes,
Bathed in white light,
With halos in your eyes.

Don't wanna waste no more time,
Time's what we don't have.
Everywhere I look, someone dies,
Wonder when it's my turn.

I pray to god
That you're right before my eyes,
Bathed in white light,
With halos in your eyes.

Don't wanna waste no more time,
Time's what we don't have.
Everywhere I look someone dies,
Wonder when it's my turn.

Celtic Frost - Ground

Voila une chanson d'un album qui m'a beaucoup marqué, que j'écoute beaucoup en ce moment. Un album d'une noirceur indescriptible, des riffs ultra lourds. J'ai pas encore trouvé aussi sombre. J'adore. Il est fortement recommandé de l'écouter avec un casque dans le noir.
Enjoy



I am hatred, seeping blood.
The rain, the flood, the grief.
I am rage becoming flesh.
A dismal, ravaged life.
This is pain, a wall of tears.
And my tears are my truest friends.
This, my heart, a dying sun.
A flower fading to black.

Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
In this darkness, called my mind.
The waste you left for me.
I'm your shit, your verbal smut.
Your twisted world recapped.
This is you, your lifeless soul.
Your sick and fucked-up lies.
In my world your love is death.
Your disease, your skin that burns.
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God.

You tied my limbs and buried me alive.
And piled this frozen mud.
You watched me die with lustrous eyes.
As all your words grew stale.
You mocked my care and stained my mind.
You yearned for me to fail.

Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God, why have you forsaken me?
Oh God.

The Starting Line - Best Of Me

La c'est un vrai coup de coeur. Depuis des années que je connais ce groupe (avec cette chanson justement) je décroche pas. The Starting Line jour une pop-punk sans autre prétention que de faire du bien aux oreilles. Et entre les mélodies des guitares et la voix du chanteur on peut dire que c'est mission accomplie.
Enjoy.



tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

here we lay again
on two separate beds
riding phone lines
to hear that familiar voice
and pictures brought from memory
we reflect on miscomunication
and misunderstandings
and missing each other two
much too without you, let go

we turn our music down
and we whisper
say what your thinking right now
tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

jumping to conclusions
made me fall away from you
i'm so glad that the truth
has brought back together me and you

we're sitting on the ground
and we whisper
say what your thinking outloud

tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

we turn our music down
and we whisper
we're sitting on the ground
and we whisper
we turn our music down
we're sitting on the ground
and next time i'm in town
we will kiss girl
we will kiss girl

tell me what you thought about
when you were gone and so alone
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont
feeling that we cant
we're not ready to give up

we got older but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

Eisley - Many Funerals

Un groupe que j'ai connu comme ça grâce à un mail de pub, et dont je viens de recevoir l'album aujourd'hui. Soit dit en passant, album contenant un dvd avec making of, un clip ete 8 titres lives. Et comme j'aime beaucoup je me suis dit tiens, je vais partager ça. Mais voila impossible de choisir une chanson. Alors le plus simple me paraissait être de mettre la chanson qui porte le même titre que l'album (Combinations) . Mais finalement j'ai plutôt choisi la première chanson de l'album, intitulée Many Funerals (joyeux n'est-il pas ?).
Enjoy.



Bring along your tricks and trade
We will lie here
Here we lay
And though this ship is out to sea
I'm content to lie peacefully

Young and agile, Seaside born
My parents death did I dear mourn
Now in this wicked world risk i
Bold endeavors by and by

Break break down
Break break down

And now they have no chances
They fill the empty caskets
and leave you with your tears
And now we take our chances
We all will take more chances
Before our lives end too

Break break down
Break break down

How could you have left us here?
You had friends, had us, goodbye

Saosin - Voices

Parce que j'adore ce groupe, et cette chanson.




I miss the part, when we were moving forward now
On our way down
But maybe someday, I'll be something more than love
Just know I'll never tell

And when you're on your way down
[Through the clouds]
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

I'm missing parts, now that you've told me everything
On our way down
And I was blessed and I've forgotten how to love
You said you'd never tell

And when you're on your way down
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

Not even I will tell,

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
We say these things to know they're real.

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

We speak in different voices
when fighting with the one's we've loved
We speak in different voices
We speak in different voices

To know they're real. Real.
I'll never

The End - And Always

Je me suis dit que quitte à vous bassiner avec cette chanson autant vous la mettre en écoute (pour ceux à qui je l'ai pas envoyée), avec les lyrics qui plus est car ils sont très importants.
Enjoy.

PS : D'autres chansons à venir prochainement.




You've been bedding with the down and below
On your toes peering out the hole
The Void offers sweet release
And always the thought of defeat, it has lessened you
Mortar and bricks have cut off your air
And always the fire burns deep and down within you
Has left you so afraid of love
The things you don't say have weighed without weight
Impatient and persistant, not fleeting, not for a moment
When it seems that all you're made to do is suffer
You'll be pleased to know that miracles do occur
You never chose this
This place you don't fit
You're just misplaced
A pet with no trick
A wreck
Broken in need of a fix
And always the feeling of failure has trailed you
Nothing you've tried keeps the vultures at bay
So restless and weary, you desperately struggle
But it's all to no avail
The mirror of mirth lies shattered in pieces
So long the image, now you'll never see it.
And the leaden ball that's been chained to your ankle
Has kept you running in circles
You never chose this
This place you don't fit
You're just misplaced
A pet with no trick
A wreck
Broken in need of a fix
How numb have you become?
Now that you've lost all connection
Your bottle is filled up to the brim
Who will be left to clean the spill?
And when your breaking point pierces the surface tension
You're sure to overflow all at once
And see how brittle becomes you
And there is no escaping this
All of the memories haunt your flesh
There is no trace of the events
Only the ones you recollect
Relax and arrest the arrhythmia within your chest
The bells toll not for your atonement
And you can't make them stop
And always the thought of defeat, it has lessened you
Mortar and bricks have cut off your air
And always the fire burns deep and down within you
Has left you so afraid of love
The things you don't say have weighed without weight
Impatient and persistant, not fleeting, not for a moment
When it seems that all you're made to do is suffer
You'll be pleased to know that miracles do occur

There were some things that I didn't say
