not too long ago i was introduced to this song by the band [i]Drab Majesty[/i], and i was totally convinced that it was some obscure gothic rock/dark wave band from the early 80's. this was until i read into their bio and discovered that their first release was in 2016, which took me by complete and utter surprise, considering they are so spot on with the retro aesthetic which perfectly encapsulates that era of music.
what about you? got any weird or obscure music that you think deserves more attention
[spoiler][i]When you walked alone to leave your life at home
You really wanted to die
And if you hoped to hold the key to eternity
You really wanted to die
Can't count your blessings saying goodbye
Did you really watch your desires resign?
In the case of a wanderin' eye
When you fell to Earth and lost the love to love
You really wanted to try
Can't count your blessings saying goodbye
39, by design
Did they beam you up into the lights in the sky?
If you could take a Polaroid of your life
Would you cry?
Would you make them stare into the whites of your eyes
Eternal point of view
And when you came to turn the hands on the sands of time
You really wanted to die
And then you showed them all you fell
It was so hard to break the spell
You just wanted to die
Can't count your blessings saying goodbye
39, by design
Did they beam you up into the lights in the sky?
If you could take a Polaroid of your life
Would you cry?
Would you make them stare into the whites of your eyes
If you could take a Polaroid
39, by design
Did they beam you up into the lights in the sky?
If you could take a Polaroid of your life
Would you cry?
Would you make them stare into the whites of your eyes
Eternal point of view
Really just a roll of the dice
When truth or lies will make you cry
Really doesn't make a lot of sense
Too tense to recompense
Really just a roll of the dice
When truth or lies will make you cry
Really doesn't make a lot of sense
In the end we'll all be cleansed[/i][/spoiler]

The album [i]Seer[/i] by Swans is pretty good. Swans are an experimental rock band that started back in the eighties. This album was released in 2012 and got a lot of rave reviews at the time. I really like it but be warned it’s not for everyone.
