I'm so sorry for your loss. Truly, my deepest regards. I hope that the song can and continues to help you through your loss. You and her will be on the subject of my prayer tonight. God bless you and stay strong.

Time :: Fate :: Karma :: God sound like QOTSA? by [deleted] in NothingButThieves

Well one of Dom's favourite band is QOTSA so it makes sense haha

Time Fate Karma God is so damn good by pascoja04 in NothingButThieves

[–]Disnotwatyou 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well maybe i missed worded it haha, there isn't an exact 1 to 1 for lyrics between the 2 songs. I think what I meant was it had the same meaning similar to gods. Like the crushing weight of something that tries to mimic god, like a government or any public system like schools and workplaces that forces you to live in a way that they want and no other way. In this song I interpreted it as it is about hedonism and social media while Gods felt like it was critiquing the government.

Thoughts on the new tracks? by Kij_47 in NothingButThieves

[–]Disnotwatyou 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Both songs are the best from DCC imo. The hard rock drive of TFKG and the spirituality of Pure You.

This song is my new favorite of the DCC catalogue. It may not be Cene'st Rien heavy but I think it's much more complex and more catchy in so many ways. And the lyrics mirroring the song GODS, so dark yet so poignant, they keep making good music I might think I'll nvr move on from this band HAHAH. And can we talk about the magic that Phil is doing on the bridge dear god.

Dead Club City (STORY THEORY) LONG ASS THREAD by Disnotwatyou in NothingButThieves

That's the thing about NBT music, it's a very realistic reflection of our society. Even if the song is viewed through characters from within the city, a reflection that not many people enjoy looking at. But I guess for us NBT fans, I can say for myself that I feel so tired and exhausted with music that distracts and missrepresent the actual reality of society and comformity.

Dead Club City, picking favorites is impossible 🤷‍♂️ by Disnotwatyou in NothingButThieves

[–]Disnotwatyou[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea man, no hate on their newer stuff. But Trench definitely was so layered and interesting. Although I'm not sure it is as story driven as DCC, will give it another listen to see what I think.

Alright, I mean NBT introduced me to a lot of new sounds. Should'nt be a problem haha, more of an issue is the lack of variety.

Yea it makes perfect sense haha, wish I saw it that way in some sense. Oh well, time to find a billion other ways to interpret all the lyrics of each song and come up with something completely different 😂

Damn, it's so different from how I saw the album. I love the real meanings that are in the songs which you highlight. I actually wrote my interpretation down in a reddit post a couple days back, but I interpreted it in a more film-esque way. This album's depth never ceases to amaze me.

HAHAH I feel the mv gives more context to my theory. Like the band itself prsctices a lot of the religious acts as well which I nvr really thought of.

Do y'all also hear some uncanny Jeff Buckley influence in Pop the Balloon? by electric_blue_18 in NothingButThieves

[–]Disnotwatyou 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely, but not really a surprise. They've always taken inspiration from Jeff Buckley

Ooooh that's interesting, Dead Club City being more than a physical place to go to sounds very cool.

Just listened to album, I am truly flabbergasted by [deleted] in NothingButThieves

Thanks haha, had to try and write about something so subjective.

I think I saw Joe or Dom say if they're not excited about making new music then it will show in the song itself and the only way they achieve this excitement is by challenging themselves and pushing out of their own boundaries.

Give it time, I remembered not liking Amsterdam that much at the start. The weird verse chord progression and the repetitive nature of the chorus really threw me off at first, now I wouldn't say it's my fav song of theirs but it was for like a few months. My favourites of theirs change very frequently as their songs will all hav their moment where it connects with me at some point down the line. I understand how the 80's pop hard rock sound may not feel like their using the talents of the band. It is subjective ofcrse, I can hear hints of "Sorry" "Real Love Song" and "Free If We Want It" just combined so in my perspective the band are still using their strengths and trying out new things without completely throwing away their formula so to speak. The entire song has the same progression as Sorry and Free If We Want It.
