Lyrics :
Rain goes perfect with a Nosdam mix tape
The last street lights stay on well after dawn
Kings fall to pawns he dropped the needle, let the song say it
The kind of morgue with a gong to tell you when
But the rooms rules bend and the staff will make you laugh
My dad wore this face in old photographs
Calico cats out scare me from behind a junkyard fence
High on khat I let my stare go soft but pretend it's not
When I'm eyed I tongue my bottom teeth
And look at the sidewalk in front of me
As my tennis shoes go in and out of the frame
Another sleuth-footed empty Why? walking on goose eggs in the mission
Swap meet brown 31 fishnet hat cocked to the right
I only played chess once in my life and I lost
[Hook]
Looks like a sky for shoeing horses under
Looks like a sky for shoeing horses under
Looks like a good sky to die under

It's time for you to fix me
'Cause I can't breathe
It wasn't my intention
To let things go this far
All the big ideas
I've kept inside
I guess it doesn't mean that much to you
Don't you wanna hear
Don't you wanna see
The colours in my head
No need to lose you hope now
I owe you all you need
But I'm out of function cold and scared inside
This fairytale is almost complete
Like a million lies
But I guess it doesn't mean that much to you
Don't you wanna hear
Don't you wanna see
The colours in my head
The colours in my head

Emerge now and see the
Returning to raze my shrine
Whole seeds no soul
Blind, shall we lay tides shallow
Wise, I stand my ground
I will not stray
Wounding the ego, get up lick your wounds
Mistrust to survive, avoid being burned alive
Biting other people with words
Searching for oblivion, small scares etc permanence
Tearing your whole life to shreds
All that was alive and spontaneous
Fading under the crests of imbalance
Gnaw your teeth into fangs, only to have them lash out at yourself
For what they forever have done to you
Numbness escapes, willing to face the pain
Your rebirth demands a part of you dead
The longing in your heart for transcendence
Something greater than what we've become
Can you see through the haze when the writing's small?
Can you read what it means does it make any sense?
'Cause it's all dollar bills and pounds and pence
Telling you what to do and what pills to take
When your head's in your hands and your belly aches
Where to go in the world when you need a change
Don't you worry about the bill, that can be arranged.
Make me sad, make me sleep, make me question,
Give me things that can calm this depression (x2)
Let me know what to do when my money's spent
Let me know how to smell and to pay the rent
Let me know what to do when my hair is gone
Let me know who to kill when the war is on
There's a woman of your dreams and she's all on the phone
Better send her a text when you're on your own
Make me sad, make me sleep, make me question,
Give me things that can calm this depression (x3)
So much writing on the walls so much writing on the walls so much writing on the walls...
Obey,
Feel, Trust, Obey !
Sing along sing along sing along sing it...
You know that they can't harm you.
You know that they can't hurt you.
Don't want their dreams to waste me.
Don't want their dreams to save me.

C'est si dur de trouver les bons mots,
Je sais que, quand je dois partir et tout laisser tomber,
Je perds tout ce que tu as fait de moi.
Laisse tout s'effacer, comme une feuille passant du vert au gris,
Vainc l'impossible, termine cette guerre avec nos ennemis,
J'aime tellement ton sourire qui me déchire le crâne,
Pourquoi tout ce je touche devient si coupant ?
Laisse la mer m'engloutir, m'emporter,
Laisse moi glisser en profondeur sous ce bleu dévastateur,
La lumière dans la nuit et les étoiles sur ton visage,
Tu es tout ce qui m'entoure ici...
Je suis le vide, la bouteille vide, au final...
Je suis la partie qui s'effondre, jouant à faire semblant,
Je veux retrouver ce sentiment tout au fond de mon cœur.
Étale ces sentiments, pousse-les de tous les côtés,
Fais remonter à la lumière l'amour que je ne peux cacher,
Cherchant l'unité de l'autre côté,
Un millier d'impacts de balles ne peuvent pas tuer cet amour.
Je suis le vide, la bouteille vide, au final...
Je suis la partie qui s'effondre, qui joue à faire semblant,
Je veux retrouver ce sentiment tout au fond de mon cœur.
Ces sentiments...

I - to cleanse, to purge, to breach eternity and smother all life
Blind-these mortal men of clay, divine and dying in their harassed form
I-this furnace of limitless hate. Bestial, pure
The pendulum swings semi-attached to the center of all
I drug these minds into ruin and contempt-the acid smoke of burning souls
This is an anomaly. Disabled. What is true?
Not destined for incarceration, I crave my nothingness
The illness that they whisper of, is that what makes me fail?
I see through the eyes of the of the blind
Not clear what it is to be this self I dread, the immense, the rabid I am
The cogs turn, grinding away at ceaselessness-willing it to dust
Re-disintegration. Convulse. A dead universe-Impales this twilight
Fear aligns. Sadistic me. Meant to devour. Despair
Sickened by the fact that immortality is not mine to have.
A snail along a straight razor-dividing itself through motion
I charge this feeble product of god
Laughing, drenched in the bile of millions
Chewing on the stinking flesh of the crown of creation
Solitude in splendor has been rivalled
Shroud stained with tarblack vomit
Veiling the rotting eyes of the masses
The strain of Armageddon evolves
Shifting through worlds from chaos, to chaos, to chaos
I devour this manure of existence-infertile, barren, whole
Rancid redeemer. Virulent deterioration of faith
Sacrilege in persona. In truth, fundamentally twisted
A witness to this savage carnage. A frenzy of animosity
The will to mutilate. Dominant deviation
The worship of the sick and degenerate will spread
I - The nihilist, not the lunatic
Ridding my godlike being of doubt
Obliterating all hope of escape
I - Enter the echoes of despair
Miracles inverted by default, a reflex to devastate
Soaking in the will to violate, to castrate
Soiling the purpose of mankind. Deus ex machina on hold
The orgasmic, the splendid, the beginning of the end
Conception derived from misconceptions
The dimensionless features of truth
Silence in the core of undoing
Untie its knots and set it loose
The inertia of my existence is clear
Premutation of slaughtered worlds
I alone will behold the dying sky
A servant of eternity
Progress finally, emergence of doom complete
Here only to reverse the flow of life
I
Album : Low Level Owl volume 1
Release Date : 2001
Label : Deep Elm
Here to buy the album : http://deepelmdigital.com/album/low-level-owl-vol-1-2
Massive in approach and epic in scope, LOW LEVEL OWL is a vast soundscape that lives and breathes on its own. Nearly two hours in total length and previously released on two separate volumes, these twenty-six beautifully orchestrated songs of lush melody, expertly paced dynamics and blossoming atmospherics will leave you floored. THE APPLESEED CAST gives way to a more courageous exploration of sound and texture on Low Level Owl, experimenting with loops, echoes, instrumentation, inverting tape and changing speeds. They discover the sonic possibilities...the masterpiece in every measure. Each song nearly explodes at the seams, overflowing with symphonics, crescendos, swells of feedback and electronics. Listen to slowly building waves of guitars and drums that ultimately crest, bursting into the shimmering tears of honest men. Music like this is neither calculated nor deliberate. It just happens. It just exists. This is the music to dream to.
"Low Level Owl is a supernova and a full redefinition of The Appleseed Cast...a sprawling monster that redirects their ambition from the emotional release of their earlier albums into the meticulous conceptions crafted through endless hours of studio time. Overhauling their sound and incorporating a wide melange of styles, the technical execution throughout the album is flawless. Just the arrangement of the music alone shows the amount of thought that goes into an album of this size. There are hints of Stone Roses, My Bloody Valentine and Built to Spill - all embedded a lush wave of production reminiscent of the Flaming Lips, Spiritualized or Mogwai. With Low Level Owl, they establish their own unique vision for the future of rock, offering hope and brighter possibilities for the genre...or rather, creating their own. It's time to herald The Appleseed Cast for what they are now, and what they're about to become: ground breaking." - Pitchfork
"Low Level Owl is the best music The Appleseed Cast has ever produced, pushing the envelope of indie rock, emo, recording techniques and musicianship into a place that has rarely been visited. Choosing to create a two hour long soundscape of melody, rhythm and emotion, Low Level Owl's twenty-six tracks do not divide the album up into abrupt fragments, but rather act as road signs guiding the listener through a seamless sonic journey. They should not even be considered as moments of expression and emotion. Each moment bleeds effortlessly into the next leaving the listener to make distinctions between the changing concepts and ideas on their own. Low Level Owl is a product of love, imagination and devotion that can only come from a band that has the one simple goal of making music. You have to listen to The Appleseed Cast yourself to understand. Low Level Owl is an amazing display of music." - RockKansas
"Low Level Owl from The Appleseed Cast is the 20 year-old bottle of champagne equivalent to music. Both epitomize perfection to those people who have the refined taste to appreciate them. In terms of quality, there is simply none better. In that sense, the Appleseed Cast have composed one of the finest pieces of music this generation will ever hear. This album is mellow; it's multi-faceted; it's poetic; it's full of imagery and emotion. For maximum enjoyment, you've got to lie back, close your eyes and absorb it. The Appleseed Cast have redefined the genre that has been redefined more often that it has been adhered to, and I'm pretty certain there isn't another band out there like this one." - Punk International
"The Appleseed Cast is romantic, airy, deep, wooing, heartfelt...there are so many words to describe Low Level Owl. It is instrumental bliss, pure feeling and intensity. Listening to this flowing album is an incredible experience. I expected nothing but the best from these guys and that is exactly what they delivered. The most notable song on the album has to be Steps And Numbers...the lyrics just hit you and leave you in question and wonderment. Very powerful stuff. This is a definite must for anyone that enjoys having a few moments alone to ponder life and everything involved." - Punk Bands
