Lyrics:
APPLAUSE OF A DISTANT CROWD
Watch me now I’m vanishing in the light.
I photographed my latest meal in black and white.
I kept my faith in videos of cats in shoes.
And spent a day on episodes on plastic use.
Watch me now I’m vanishing in the light.
I’m filtering my loosing streak warm and bright.
A history I’ve left behind, high on words
of all the stupid things we said but never heard.
Straight to the extinction of your last company.
Go to the lost amber funeral echo in the hall.
Straight to the extinction, burn and moan.
Go to the lost amber carved in stone.
Filming the blue morning carefully.
Climbing the late hours. When will you see me?
Follow VOLA!

I can't believe I complained about this album 2 days ago. I've turned to REALLY love this album. I was upset it got softer, but damn it's a masterpiece in its own way. Sorry for doubting you VOLA

@gardhul 5 лет назад

I know: it really grows up with listenings. Ultimately you can just admit how much genius is in there...

@renatoalberico4102 4 года назад

It happened to me with "alleviate" by leprous when they released the single, a week later after I said that is not "my thing" I was listening to it in my head non stop so I decided to give it another try and no of course I love it

@zombiejaska1475 2 года назад

Why would you be disappointed if band's music gets softer? What is wrong in that?

@FusionHowie 2 года назад

It happens to me a lot! it's the nature of progressive music.

@JoeNation1994 Год назад

@@renatoalberico4102 Amazing song! Definitely my favorite by them. That’s the song that got me into them. Which reminds me, it’s the weekend and I’ll have two days off in a row to officially listen to all of their albums. Found them through Voyager when the singer did guest vocals in Entropy

this is one of those tracks that, even when I'm not in the mood for it, I just love listening to, because it's great. When I'm in the correct mood, however - this track is one of the select few that can straight up make me cry just by listening to it. And I love it for that.

@cristianbotiza3971 5 лет назад

I like to randomize songs while driving; I bought this album although I had only listened to Whaler and Ghosts - loving them I said ok let me buy it. All of a sudden this song started and when it reached the part you mentioned here I was like 'what the hell happened? this is amazing'. One of the best songs of the album, along Whaler. The lyrics are also impressive. VOLA for the win! (y)

@MoonJellyGames 5 лет назад

This is like the Meshuggah/Owl City crossover I never knew I wanted.

@demorez5 5 лет назад

i have no idea what owl city is, but this kinda reminds me Beardfish. also not at all meshuggah

@MoonJellyGames 5 лет назад

Yeah, I suppose the Meshuggah similarity isn't super obvious as it is in some of Vola's other songs. The main riff sounds like something of theirs, only it would in a super low tone. Owl City is an electronica/pop project (mostly one guy). I'm quite sure that almost nobody who listens to Vola and the like would enjoy Owl City, but the main electronic melody in this song (particularly the bit that starts at 2:52-- which is also where the Meshuggah riff is the strongest) and the piano sounds very similar to me. Also, the lyrics in the first verse sound like something the Owl City guy might write.

@rkf87 5 лет назад

I hear Meshuggah in the rhythms for other songs... it was someone who came to my mind when I heard Smartfriend. makes me think of their 2005 album I forget the name.

@drummerblade 5 лет назад

Their previous album, Inmazes, was very much influenced by Meshuggah. The rhythmical similarities were uncanny. Not so much with this one.

@bio2189 4 года назад

Yeah the lyrics kinda remind me of Owl City

@chiquita_dave 4 года назад

The bass at 3:19 right before the chorus gets me EVERY time. The entire song is excellent but it's little details like that that really elevate this song to another level.

@gregoryl.levitre9759 3 года назад

No other band does what Vola does, and what they do cannot be synthesized. This is unique auditory art that will endure the test of time. I love it when I introduce someone to Vola for the first time, many of them are surprised that they'd never heard them before and all of them become fans.

@petarpavasovic6333 5 лет назад

I just can't stand dumb people who call themselves fans of a band. First album the band releases is in most cases raw and heavy and as soon as they start to explore textures and melodies, the so called "fans" loose their shit and start saying completely irrelevant statements like: "this is pop". No this isn't pop, the band members just matured and started to evolve and expand their sound. That's completely normal and the goal of the music is not to repeat yourself every time you make something new.

@ernestomuyalemoujalli5314 5 лет назад

I'm agree but I just ask those bands for which are about to change their genre that create another band another name and turn the page or keep projects separately cause it is common and normal that rock/metal musicians have others music tastes

@JeremyGViking 5 лет назад

That is very rarely feasible... do you know how hard it is to get a new name out there... so many never make it off the ground... they are using the name they built up to do what they want and that is what they deserve... remember bands owe us nothing.. they make music and we may like it... thats it

absurdity. VERY talented band. I listen to this album for 3 years. Almost every month i'm here listening to any song again. The freshness of Ruby Pool and the textures of We are thin air are unique. But Vola is totally unique, even if i did compare them with other bands, like Pink Floyd, Meshuggah or anything else.

I... Quite never paid attention to the lyrics of this album. I've been listening to it while working, doing stuff or whatever. But "WHEN WILL YOU SEE ME?". It hit so hard. I mean, I did not listen to the the rest of the lyrics and yet, I knew what it was about. So I listened again. For real this time. And yeah, it was just what I thought. Anyway, thanks Vola for putting words and music on a random fan's feelings. Love you guys, wish you the best and have fun doing what you love

@SICMICKSIC6 7 месяцев назад

I think i have finally figured out what this song means. Its been my favorite of theirs for a while, ive listened to it easily over 100 times by now. I sincerely believe this song is about how consuming social medias are to our minds, and the decision to leave it behind. When you apply this though a d listen to the song again, it really seems to fit the bill.

@davidfuller581 5 месяцев назад

It's more or less about drowning yourself in social media and the internet after a relationship ends, or at least that's what I've read.

Why would you think you're entitled to decide what's good for a band and what's not? I'm pretty sure you can't even describe why it's 'pop', because your only argument would be "it's not heavy enough for my own irrelevant taste".

@Detren 5 лет назад

@emptycloud2774 5 лет назад

They've always had a flavour of pop in their sound. It's just less heavier with the riffs with more focus on melody - and some experimentation. Should they keep releasing the same album..?
