"The war may lay the lot of us In rows of granite stone" this line hits hard because there are many american cities - north and south - that home these rows of granite stone like maybe the scar is still there. I remember seeing them at Bonaventure in Savanah under the June humidity and the spanish moss almost matching those in Crown Hill in Indianapolis, which were in the middle near a church and surrounded by much more opulent graves.
3:55 this moment is so violently emotional, i find myself immediately immersed and start crying, i swear i dont experience this with any other song. Thank you
“The war may lay the lot of us in rows of granite stone.” I *love* this line so, so much - this song is stunningly beautiful, and one of my favorites of yours. Truly amazing.
I’ve recently been learning about the Civil War and the Reconstruction era a lot and this song.. it’s so beautiful and melodic. It shows the war from the Southern perspective, not to say that the cause may be right, but that war affects everyone. I learned about The Blasting Company through Over the Garden Wall, but that was years ago. I’ve now come to hear your other music. Absolutely gorgeous.
"A life as sweet as candy I may never live to know" Every single time I've listened to this song this line has made me shiver. I haven't been this emotionally impacted by a song in such a long time, it's a work of art. A work of tragic yet beautiful art.
i discovered your band thanks to over the garden wall nearly a decade ago, thank you for making songs like this, know that all your music is appreciated and cherished!
Hey blasting company, I don’t know if you’ll see this but I wanted to thank you for all of your wonderful music. Everything from the over the garden wall soundtrack to a history of public relations dilemmae. I would love to hear more releases from you guys !!! <3
This track transported me to another reality for a bit when it came on. I have an app that plays songs from my Spotify as my alarm. This was one of the tracks it used, so when i heard this in my half awake state i always thought the baby was something i dreamt, and sometimes the baby affected my dream. When I finally heard this track fully awake randomly, it was one of the most surreal music listening experiences I've ever had. It helps that the song already has this sort of surreal dreamy vibe. But now this track forever holds a place in my heart and immediately makes me dream wherever i am.
Do you only make music for soundtracks now? I mean, the music is truly amazing, I love it, but do you ever plan to return with something like Petrojvic Blasting Company someday? love you guys sm xoxo
Funny you should ask! The History of Public Relations Dilemmae album is more or less what we sound like (whether we like it or not) when we play live (it was actually recorded live in one evening). Coincidentally we've been planning a very small tour to test the waters and are hoping to be able to announce actual tour dates in the next couple of months. Our current style of songwriting has changed a bit since the George Clooney days but we will still play some of the old songs!
As a member of the deepest part of the American South you can ever get to, I've just gotta say that, of all of the songs I've heard over the last 2 decades, this is perhaps the best one I've ever heard. Not just in melody and singing, but the clear instrumental inspirations being rich with the subject matter, not to mention such a unique and invaluably needed subject to cover, as one of the vital part's of America's history that's rapidly being forgotten and decontextualized.
@@batrachian149 No, im not a confedetard, they deserved to lose and they are nothing but an embarrassment to America. I'm talking about the Civil War from the civilian's perspective on the Civil War. Not to mention this right now too, being Maryland's perspective since that's whats being shown here.
