DEAdpILOT – See How it Ends
Yeah, I’d like to see you turn your life around! I’m sick of hearing that you’ve been talking to the AI bots and that they’ve told you there’s no way that they can help you reach your goal. I’m tiring of seeing you struggle, trying to figure out a better way for yourself. All those years of being told you’re a failure if you don’t achieve colossal success haven’t helped.
So, here it is. The answer is that you don’t need much. Once you realise that, life’ll change. No, I’m not saying that you should be ambitious. I’m simply telling you that a big old crowd in a small club on a Saturday night, the right songs, the right friends and the feeling that life can go on forever might be enough for now. That’s DEAdpILOT’s hanging on to as well.
“See How It Ends,” I am told, is a song written by this Georgian rock band in order to serve a show’s finale. And, frankly, you can tell. This is an alt-rock sound meant to place you on the very precipice of oblivion, to pull you back up, and with beery breath to tell you “It’s all going to be alright!” DEAdpILOT, actually, is hanging on to the very spirit of rock n’ roll. Do you need anything else, really?
Case Galv & Code – CQD
Most people who live too long, eventually, simply, go mad. Now, doctors will tell you that this is simply the result of their physical components wearing out and giving in. But that’s not the case.
People go crazy because of all the regrets about all of the things that they never said. Embarrassment only lasts for a few minutes after saying the wrong thing. But remorse over not saying anything turns out to last a lifetime.
If only there were a vehicle for the angry words we need to say, but fear of launching out into the world. If only there was a method to say what we mean without invoking demons and bad juju. Case Galv & Code are using the best strategy there is.
The band is going for classic punk-rock to tell the truth about themselves and their nearest and, as it turns out, hardly their dearest. “CQD” is a song about being in deep waters out of one’s own fault, but not seeing anyone around who might answer a scream for help.
