I was a hater of these guys for sometime. Thought Ebert was a bit phony, pretentious or whatever. Put it down as annoying hipster BS... How fucking wrong was I?! They are amazing. If you haven't already seen it - look up their Live in Australia moshcam concert.
I cried the first time I heard this, 7 years later I come back and I’m crying again. An embodiment of love and magic, and the intangible bliss you feel every so often being a Saipan
This is so much better than the album version. Tons more passion. You can feel his pain and his prayer to God to rise above his troubles. Prove he’s acknowledged and learned from his mistakes and wants a second chance at a better, purer way of living.
Wonderful song in the bleak midwinter. When it‘s cold outside, I came back to this and it feels like summer. And also in summer, on a big lake in the countryside where I live (in the middle of nowhere) it feels also like..... Summer 😋😋😋
That’s the beauty of a great jam band. The album version is a sketch; a template. The true magic happens live as the arrangements change and songs take on a life of their own.
Looove this song! The energy level of this song is out of this world; it feels like a celebration of life. It just gets a fire burning in me every time I listen.
This is the first song I listened to from this band. I thought yes, good. Then I listened to more from them. It`s not often you like all of the songs in succession but this was the case. Not often this happens. I`ve bought a couple of albums since and I research what I can on Alex and the Zero`s. Keep putting them out guys, you are very much appreciated. May the Magnets in the sky bless you all.
Well I was only five, When my dad told me I'd die, I cried as he said son, There ain't nothing to be done, Now all those fists I've thrown, thrown, there, Only tryin' to prove him wrong, And after all the blood I've spilled, Only tryin' to get killed, oh, oh ah, Well I've already suffered I want you to know, God, I'm ridin' on hell's hot flames comin' up from below. Now heroin and rain, rain, And blowing out my window pane, umh, And all the blood left, drug me down, It's killin' light, killin' sound, oh, But now I've already suffered I want you to know, God, I'm ridin' on hell's hot flames comin' up from below, hey, Yes I've already suffered I want you to know, God, I'm riding on Heaven's flames coming up from below, Far from below, how high can we go? Uh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Feel those flowers, Watch them grow, Out of the darkness, Out of the snow, So? You let it go, go, Go, go, go, go, yeah, To all the love I lost, hey Only tryin' to play boss, Oh, oh, oh, Oh oh oh, You know, all those friends I hurt, hey, Only treated 'em like dirt, ah, And all those words, oh, I spewed, Ain't nothin' sacred, nothin' true, ah, Now, to all my friends I turn, ah, Hell, I'm ready now to burn! Well I've already suffered I want you to know, God, I'm ridin' on hell's hot flames coming up from below, Yes I've already suffered I want you to know, God, I'm ridin' on heaven's flames coming up from below, Far from below, how high can we go?
I went to their concert in Mexico one year before of so, and was one of the greatest moments in my life, these guys are pure music and good vibe, they took down the line between the VIP and normal people to make one single crow, was beautiful ❤️
Sus letras me transportan a otros universos gracias por tan bella musica ojala regresen a México algún dia!!! Tremendos músicos, de lo mejor del mundo mundial 😊😊
