BLACK METAL!!!!

[sweatboard]

I think in time people will realize its a classic. Its fuckin weird and makes you think "wtf!? this is mmj!?" but at the same time you love it and can't explain why. Then again I'm one of the people who loved Highly Suspicious from the get-go...so...yeah.

Also, on another forum i saw where some guy said that this song will "evoke a Smells Like Teen Spirit type response" from the public  ;D. For one, things like that don't happen in music anymore. The market has changed and culture has shifted significantly, not to mention we're all a bunch of jaded fucks. Secondly, even if songs DID have that kind of impact these days, I don't think this would even come close to being the one to do it. Its a great, far out track but i don't even think it will do modestly well on radio to be honest.  :-\ I mean, I'm Amazed is their only charting single in America right? Adult Contemporary if I'm not mistaken....and if a song like that can't crack the airwaves this surely won't.

   Ha, that was me who said that.  Mark my words....this song WILL change our culture.  Kids will start eating more and more Thai food and eventually slowly start converting to Buddhism.  People not in the know will wonder why the sudden shift in culture........BLACK METAL MOTHER F*CKERS

I think that it sounds a lot like the Hawaii Five O theme song.

Off the Record=Hawaii Five O theme song...at least the openings notes of it.

dammit, you got me!  ;D



By the way....what's that weird harp thing that Jim plays?

Oh yeah, and this: Black Metal > Circuital.

agree. out of the 4 potential songs for circuital songs I like circuital the least. BM the best except maybe FA

[el_chode]

Really? Circuital the least? No song has rocked my ass to midnight in a long, long time like Circuital. I need more arms to play all the air instruments when I'm rocking out

[Tracy 2112]

well, guess what; you're not going to be getting any more fucking arms

[SaraBananaBear]

So does anybody want to take a crack at the lyrics?  It seems like Lucifer is in it quite a bit.

Catching waves on Lucifer's beach
Taking shade underneath Lucifer's trees
Getting sustenance from Lucifer's beach/peach?
Oh black metal it's a ?? speech?

That's what I'm hearing too! And I might not be the best one to take a guess... ;) But here's the rest of what I hear:

It's a darkness you can't deny
But it don't belong in the ground at night
Suppose you'll find this place it will suffice
Coming into life you needn't cry
But as a boy you gotta let it go
Or ?
? something is good
Oh black metal you're so misunderstood

Holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Black metal you've been holding on too

Oh black metal, so misunderstood
Don't ? Lucifer's fool
Black metal feels ?, enough is enough
? out of Lucifer's cup
Black metal lead to ? and your teenage pop
We're just all ? and all grown up

Still holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Still holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Black metal you've been holding on too  ?

Catching waves on Lucifer's beach
Taking shade underneath Lucifer's trees
Getting sustenance from Lucifer's beach
Oh black metal it's ? speech

Holdin' on to black metal
(Black metal)
Holdin' on to black metal
(Black metal)
Black metal you've been holding on too ?

Black metal
Black metal
Oh bring them to me
Black metal
Oh making me think
Black metal
Oh one, two, three
Let's rock!

And if this is completely coucou, me no understand English, bork! ;) I'm a lyrics junkie, so had to get that out of the system and now, OOOOH! This song! And Jim's voice on this song! :D

[el_chode]

Really? Circuital the least? No song has rocked my ass to midnight in a long, long time like Circuital. I need more arms to play all the air instruments when I'm rocking out

well, guess what; you're not going to be getting any more fucking arms

There goes my plans for the world record finger bang gang bang with black metal in the background

[EasyRyder]

Nice Sara! Here's a few additions that may or may not be completely wrong and/or right:

It's a darkness you can't deny
But it don't belong in the ground at night in a grown up mind
Suppose you'll find this place it will suffice in a youngster's eyes
Coming into life you needn't cry
But as a boy you gotta let it go
Or ?
? something is good You know you're finding out that something's good
Oh black metal you're so misunderstood

Holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Black metal you've been holding on too

Oh black metal, so misunderstood
Don't ? Lucifer's fool
Black metal feels ?, enough is enough
? out of Lucifer's cup
Black metal lead to ? and your teenage pop
We're just all ? and all grown up Look at you starchild you're all grown up?

Still holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Still holdin' on to black metal
Black metal
Black metal you've been holding on too long?

Catching waves on Lucifer's beach
Taking shade underneath Lucifer's trees
Getting sustenance from Lucifer's beach
Oh black metal it's a fact in all your speech??

Holdin' on to black metal
(Black metal)
Holdin' on to black metal
(Black metal)
Black metal you've been holding on too ?

Black metal
Black metal
Oh bring them to me
Black metal
Oh making me think
Black metal
Oh one, two, three
Let's rock!

It amazes me how he contorts English words into Jamesian smooth-speak...makes for niceness on the ears and hard times for lyric hunters  ???

Yes! Thank you, makes much more sense!  Hopefully someone else can add some more? Come on people! ;)

HOTBM feels like warm butter is being poured into my earholes. The kind that makes my body want to squirm about from side to side! (kinda like this:)

And could it perhaps be: Black metal feeds those young, enough is enough?  ???

the only thing I have to add is that I think its "getting sustenance from Lucifers Peach" that just is how I heard it though

[Marcus2002]

Thanks Sara and Ryder; it's definitely a start.  I think two of the lines in the song might be:

Black metal feeds those young, enough if enough
[Something] wants refill out of Lucifer's cup.

Also, I think the preceding line might end with Lucifer's food, but who knows.
This song is definitely enigmatic in terms of deciphering the lyrics.

[oistheone]

Damn, for some reason this doesn't appear to be available for purchase in Canada.

[Erik26]

Love the song, love the influence, nothing to complain about from me! I just wish exams were over so I could put proper effort into these discussions. 2 more days...
