about

Fools Rage was a really fun one to record. We spent half a day tracking different takes, but it just didn’t feel right. We wanted to create this really sloppy band sound, but we just couldn’t manage. After spending an hour listening to the recordings, Thijs van der Klugt (Engineer/Producer) came up with the idea to record the song at a faster speed and slow it down afterwards. We basically had to rewrite all the different parts in order to be able to play it fast and it sounded pretty weird while doing it, but when we walked back to the control room and heard the song slowed down, the sound was just right.

lyrics

we’re all just a bitter mess
hoping that it will change
stroll through the poisened lands
on to a brighter day
i’ll play a song to take you on
i’ll play a song to take you on

it’s a fools rage
as it all decays
how the bad words keep me down
on a troubled day

part of me still upset
knowing that i’ve been caught
far from the poisened land
like seeds on abondoned soil
i’ll play a song to take me home

it’s a fools rage
as it all decays
how the bad words keep me down
on a troubled day

it’s a fools rage
as it all decays
how the bad words keep me down
on a troubled day

it’s a fools rage
as it all decays
how the bad words keep me down
on a troubled day

This became Ocean View a four-song release that offers a candid glimpse of the band’s wavelength. ... more
