팝적인 멜로디와 역동적 사운드, 사회적 메시지까지 록 리듬에 대한 갈증을 한번에 해소할, 록 필드의 새로운 감성"感性"사전 키스체이시!! 단번에 록 대중들의 의식 속으로 삼투되다!! 키스체이시는 2002년 대런 코듀"DARREN CORDEUX, 보컬, 기타"와 조엘 반데루잇"JOEL VANDERUIT, 베이스"이 페스티벌에서 우연히 만난 뒤, 조엘 반데루잇의 친구인 션 토마스"SEAN THOMAS, 기타"와 칼 아밋츠볼"드럼"이 합류하면서 탄생한 밴드로 2004년 데뷔 EP 두 장을 발표하면서 ‘이모"EMO"’ 계열의 유망주로 호주 언론의 주목을 받았다. 그리고 1년 뒤인 2005년, 데뷔작인 [UNITED PAPER PEOPLE]를 선보이면서 적어도 호주의 록 마니아들에게는 친숙한 이름이 되었다. 키스체이시를 ‘호주의 지미 잇 월드 "JIMMY EAT WORLD"’ 라고 부르기도 하는데, 지미 잇 월드는 ‘이모 코어"EMO CORE"’ 계열을 대표하는 세계적인 록 밴드로, 이 지점에서 키스체이시의 음악적 지향이 어떤 스펙트럼을 띄고 있는지를 잘 알 수 있다. 음악 팬이라면 누구나 앨범 한 장에서 많은 것들을 감상할 수 있기를 바란다. 그 중 대표적인 것 하나를 꼽으라면 아마도 그것은 ‘선율과 파워의 아름다운 동거’일 것이다. 팝적인 멜로디와 록 리듬에 대한 갈증을 한번에 풀고 싶어 하는 것이다. 이모 코어는 바로 이 점에서 강점을 발휘하는 장르일 텐데, 키스체이시는 이모 코어를 ‘정말 잘 할 줄 아는 밴드’다. .... ....
[Chorus:] 'Cause I feel so safe hiding my face Like ugly birds in a beautiful cage A bad actress in a wonderful play An ugly bird in a beautiful cage And I will stay the same
I have plastic eyes And a heart made of snow
I love swimming up high And flying down low
[Chorus]
Just pull me out now Oh will you just pull me out now?
'Cause I feel so safe hiding my face Like ugly birds in a beautiful cage A bad actress in a fucked up play An ugly bird in a beautiful cage And I will stay the same
Today I woke up in a tiny plastic cup. Spiders in my hair, crawling everywhere. In my mouth, behind my eyes, keep me warm inside. Flown here on my back. This is my hiding place.
And you will never see all the strange sides of me.
And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good. If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.
The priests all have been buried in concrete. I confessed my sins to clowns and buildings in the ground. I found a mistake in the way that we were made. Dress up party at my house, we'll all be someone else.
And you will never see all the strange sides of me.
And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good. If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.
And we're so original. I'm bad and bad is good. If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.
Drive fire engines through the desert and the rain. I'll search the shipwrecks in the ocean for a flame. Never caught a sickness that didn't list me as a friend. Never made a friendship that didn't kill me in the end.
And you will never see all the strange sides of me.
And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good. If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.
And we're so original. I'm bad and bad is good. If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover. I'll be the hangover.
Right, is it right to take a life for the taste Of a mother or her child Do you think? Don't you think about the pain they face? Just to end up on a plate
[Chorus:] Can you taste the factory inside your chest? It's not a drug, religion or the way you're dressed If they could be dishonest would you be impressed? Can you deny this?
You, if you didn't have a voice would that mean That you were worth much less than me? Don't you try, don't you try to justify your lust For the blood of innocence
We're rejected, neglected little busy bees We don't smell right like ageing little bags of meat I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this taste But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to wash it away
[Chorus:] Honey why can't you tell I don't want you around? Honey why can't you tell? Leave me out [x2]
We are an army; we're looking for a place to fit in We are angels committing all our pretty sins I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this waste But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to shake it away
[Chorus x2]
We said oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
We are crawling, collecting little stones in our knees We are a movement but we will never be a scene I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this face But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to scrape it away
[Chorus x2]
Honey why can't you tell I don't want you around? Honey why can't you tell? [x2]
Talk, talk, talk, a constant canvas Painting all that we know Do you think that we don't know the truth?
Down, down low beneath the surface You will find you're hollow Say one word and that word will echo
[Chorus:] Bite your tongue 'cause they won't listen We won't sit and die here All that's dark will now turn into light
Power doesn't come from one It comes from the whole nation You will never cut into the sky
Take, take, take but never give back We've got more than we need You've become the dagger in our back
We can't wait for intervention There must be a change here In the way we think and how we act
[Chorus]
There are no more virgins left in this town Everybody's thinking up new names Can't you see we're slowly going down, down? And we can't let this be our fate
Down, down low beneath the surface You will find you're hollow Say one word and that word will echo
