Call Me Malcom is also depression UK Ska Punk. It feels more like a blogpost more than the others and is less enjoyable. For whatever reason the empathy never activates in me, the rhythms never make me dance so I’m just going “yeah man that sucks, for you.” The songs are a little to direct about self-harm, suicide usually with the singer being the subject. Yeah I’m self-destructive. There was a later track I just deleted that is way to explicit about what he wants to do.
That said as soon as “I was never really here” plays you go “wait okay.” It sounds like it has a different producer. It is driving. The song isn’t about self-destruction but how that’s ruined a relationship. And how they can’t believe someone still can love this husk. I’ve been trying to place which band it reminds me of. Anyways that song was worth that album.
Flip side of this happy go lucky chiptune music from the composer of EARTHBOUND. I saw this live during Diggin’ The Carts.
It is creative and fun and joyous.
How was I gonna pass up a punk album by a band called The Tim Version. Is it punk songs about death? Yeah apparently. I bought it for the name and I bounced my head to the first track. There are shock, country songs on this record. Proving this thread I like the punk songs better.
Reading the lyrics, this is too dour and true and reminds me the hell world we live in.
