Dead Confederate. A real shame they split and that much of their music will not get broad recognition, because albums like Wrecking Ball have some of the best post grunge tunes I've ever heard. I always read "It Was A Rose" as an acceptance of a bleak fate, but there's a lot to take from most of their music that you may hear differently. And get a taste of that guitar.

Loved them for a long time, only found out a few years ago that they were local to me

I think it's neat how it sounds really different, but the melodies and rhythms it's based around are all there in the Talking Heads version, just sort of in the background. I love when a cover can be its own thing but also make me appreciate the original more.

Unto Others actually did this track under their previous band name Idle Hands I believe. Calling back to old metal and hard rock traditions, even some new wave, Unto Others is one of the most consistently themed metal bands out there. I thought their song "Suicide Today" might have been too on-the-nose but it is a very meaningful song to me as well.

Mudvayne-Sticks & Stones







"Sticks And Stones"

Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
I'm tired of, being nothing
But you've helped me to succeed
I'm tired of being beaten down
This life has cost me everything
I'm tired
Of being destroyed by the people I cared for and loved
I'm sick
Of the hatred in me that runs through my body like blood
I was a child that was used as a weapon
I'm tired of being the demon, the reason
That blood doesn't wash out it stains
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
I'm tired of
All the pain you've sown
I grew from those seeds
Someone turn the light on
Turn off the darkness that surrounds me
I'm tired
And I'm not afraid of you but I'm so afraid of myself
I'm sick
Being locked in a breakdown inside of my head that's my hell
I was a child that was used as a weapon
I'm tired of being your demon, the reason
That blood doesn't wash out it stains
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
Tired of my wounds and stitches
I'm tired or my scars
Tired of my wounds and stitches
I'm tired or my scars
Tired of my wounds and stitches
I'm tired or my scars
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
(Tired of my wounds and stitches
I'm tired or my scars)
Like sticks and stones your words hurt me
You took a piss on my pretty things
I'm helpless and hopeless, so let me die
So let me die!

I feel these lyrics, thank you for the song

Siames has something for damn near everyone, with some outstanding animated music videos to boot. Most people are familiar with the track "Mr Fear" or a few other older songs but "No Lullaby" is a personal favorite. Also highly recommend "Brothers," "My Way," or "Summer Nights".

Edit to add a personal note. If you're a kid who had to grow up too fast, who had to be the responsible one, then this song might knock a few tears out of you. And if you had to do that as an older sibling, this video might too.

Just a perfect banger for evenings, not much else to say!

 

[Sinon13]

This whole album is really good. I'm very grateful that I watched Sonny Boy and discovered this wonderful band, Sunset Rollercoaster.
I personally recommend the songs Wind of Tomorrow and Mistakes.

 

[avalokitesvara]

this song sounds the way cutting makes me feel

 

[Sinon13]

Maybe this song has already been shared here, but for this band I think it's worth emphasizing just how amazing their music is. Shake Your Lonely is probably my favorite, but I strongly recommend listening to their entire discography.
This song feels a thousand times better when you're feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin.

Nada - Senza un perché


Approximate translation of the lyrics (I don't know Italian, so I can't speak to the accuracy):

She never speaks
She never says a word
She needs affection
And thinks the world can't be just this

There's nothing better
Than staying still inside a mirror
As it should be
When her head bows down

And all of life
Spins endlessly without a why
And everything comes from nothing
And nothing remains without you

She never speaks
She never says a word
It's not so strange if she asks for forgiveness
When she's done nothing wrong

There's nothing better than staying silent
And thinking of the best
She holds a light summer that still isn't here yet

And all of life
Spins endlessly without a why
And everything comes from nothing
Nothing remains without you

And all of life spins endlessly
Without a why
And everything comes from nothing
And nothing remains without you

She never speaks
She never says a word

Another unsung and amazing band that is no longer together, Innerpartysystem did electronic rock like nobody else, with music highly critical of media and American culture as well as passionate personal emotions.

Staircase to the Day by Gravy Train



Feelin' like I'll never get away
On a staircase to the day
Watch the numbers fallin' from below
Lost sensations never known
Every time that I see your smile
Makes me feel I gotta cry
Come on home, won't you come on home
Take this hurt away from me

See my tears fallin' to the floor
See this agony that's me
You haunt my days, haunt my nights
Brief excursions of delight
Then I wake and know it's all the same
Nothin' left -- no, nothin'

Feelin' like I'll never get away
On a staircase to the day

 

[Sinful]

 

[viscera]

A song about longing. I translated the lyrics manually from Danish.

---

One of these nights it will be summer​

Now the deep glow of heaven kindles
And the night comes velvety soft
The dreamers will soon go to sleep
On the starlit bridge of the Milky Way

You yearn in the darkness
For days with hope and with light
You cannot sleep
One of these nights it'll be summer
A distant and fine music gives you everything you never had

Yes, right now at midnight
An angel arrives, pure and white
Love like most angels
And who is the one she loves the most?

The milk train doesn't stop here anymore…​

Verzache - Hiccup

 

[Galam]

From Liz and the blue Bird, girls, dance, staircase. Don't know what he sings but this is the sound of unrequited love. Not the only sad shoujo-ai anime movie I watched. btw the developers had a foot fetish imo. Shitty symbolism meets shitty reality. What a shit life.
