☸ New Bander State ☸ NSC 233 - Amelia

[ferret]

NBS can't get tired of hosting, I see...

I hope you understand why I didn't submit my 12 (ASC) points... But this song should be in the NSC just the same!

New Bander State for NSC 214 - The Divine Comedy!
"Infernal Machines + You’ll Never Work In This Town Again"

 

[ferret]

не покидай трамвай моїх фантазій,
не змушуй бігти за добавкою малих.
я хочу бути лиш з тобою вранці,
коли впаде на шапку мій останній сніг.
​

Well... Pot6 style next.

 

[ferret]

please pot 6

don't be greedy!

@Milos-BC, thanks! If we send pot 6 style songs often, soon enough NBS) is in pot 6. But we'd like to stay true to our pot 5, especially since it's already the uniquely smallest...
As for the song, this is my third attempt (other contests) with this band, the previous two were not very successful, to put it mildly... But I still haven't given up hope!

 

[Milos-BC]

Keeping my fingers crossed!

I've been meaning to share this song for so long that I waited until the time
when this lyrics and video became especially relevant.

* : * : *

You're scared just like a little girl.
My Alice, my Alice.
None of this is a dream.
Only in dreams do we leave this captivity.

Only in the spring do we feel that there's meaning
and we live like it's our last dance.
Just don't listen to what they whisper.
You want to go home? I do too.

You better get a good night's sleep.
and let you have colorful dreams
without our black clouds
and our terrible lacerations.
Alice.

NSC 216 NBS :*: MADNOTBAD *:* ALiSA

Now there are many bottomless rabbit holes everywhere
in them cars are looking for gasoline for other cars
We need no reason to go to war
this is the looking glass, oh brave new world

and whereas we used to be dumbed down by zombie TV
nowadays, the new Sharikovs* divide people into sorts
but today it is also a commodity
manipulated by all sorts of scum and fed by our quarrels
Alice.

​

* Sharikov is one of the characters in Bulgakov's "Heart of a Dog".

Sad song this time, sorry... And very personal. I hope you enjoy the video though. The animation is really cool!

NSC 2 Fat Dog 2 King of the Slugs 3 NBS

​

got such a bop for you this week. it’s balls to the wall nuts, and i’ve been looking forward to sharing it with you all for ages actually, partly because i really like the name, who doesn’t want to be king of the slugs? but also because it’s 7 minutes of pure madness and every second of it is dripping with energy and wild wild tone that makes it cut it’s way through the noise, before going on to make it’s own noise for shits and giggles. this weeks track is king of the slugs by bad dog and it rules! * fat dog / king of the slugs review.

∇ Loverman + Daisy Ray = Would (Right In Front Of Your Eyes) ∇

BEL + NBS

[ 2 + 2 = 4 ]
James De Graef has been seen playing the tuba in brass bands, but also behind the scenes in the cinema,
dubbing animated movies like ‘Finding Nemo’ and ‘The Incredibles’ into Dutch. He’s also devoted himself to electronica,
post-punk and metal, has been the bassist and frontman of the synthpop band Shht, before putting the Loverman costume on.
As a disciple of legends such as Leonard Cohen or Scott Walker, the Brussels-based singer-songwriter deal carefully in words
and poetry, with ultra-sophisticated atmospherics that should please Bill Callahan’s or Bertrand Belin’s fans,
this new indie-folk bright young thing is emerging as a voice to listen and follow.​
