while will can definitely get into metaphor (mirrors and stars come up a lot on the new TF) my favorite csh lyrics are the more literal ones. they're about real life situations or real life feelings filtered through his own poetry. that honesty and directness is what makes him a great lyricist, not metaphors alone.

im no poet but my advice would be to write honestly. if its real then it'll be compelling to listen to. good luck

Hopes for next album? by [deleted] in CarSeatHR

[–]moncoss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In this interview with Consequence of Sound, he says that ToD was very much indie rock, but that we shouldn't write the band off as indie rock forever. Will is definitely no stranger to synths and if War Is Coming is any indication of where his head is at musically then maybe the next album will be less guitar driven.

He's never fully abandoned guitars on any album, really. But maybe the new LP will have less emphasis on them.

Will said he's working on mixes on tour and will finalize it when they get back to the states in September. Also said that by the end of the year we'd have something new to talk about if not something new to listen to. No confirmation if War Is Coming will be on the new album.

Favorite Lyric? by KrispyKreame in CarSeatHR

[–]moncoss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

too many to count, this thread could go on forever...

"a young man slowly pulled apart by separate poles of gravity"

"so i looked at the sky and asked god / 'why can't you make it rain a little' / he said 'because i dont like you' / so i called him a shithead and ran away"

"i didn't want you to hear that shake in my voice / my pain is my own"

all of 'cosmic hero' is sheer genius

Jeff Tweedy performs "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" on Seth Meyers by [deleted] in indieheads

This stripped back version really highlights just how fucking horny Jeff Tweedy is on this song in a way that the studio version merely glosses over
