Hey guys! This is the first of many “Artist Spotlight”s, and the first artist is MuteMath. If you haven’t heard these guys, you HAVE to buy a CD soon. My personal favorite is their self-titled album that on iTunes, also has songs from their earlier EP, Reset. They’re extremely hard to pin to one genre, and the lyrics are very very good. Here’s a couple exerpts:
Control
Take control of the atmosphere
Take me far away from here
There is no better loss than to lose myself in you
In a parachute to glide, I am captive in your sky
Surrender has somehow become so beautiful
Chaos
I know you stay true when my world is false
everything around’s breaking down to chaos
I always see you when my sight is lost
everything around’s breaking down to chaos
The Nerve
Can you believe this world’s got the nerve to insist they won’t trade in for a better one?
Can you believe this world’s yellin’ out in the dark it wants to be left alone?
Can you believe this world never woulda had the chance without us giving it blood?
Can you believe this world lacks the common courtesy to thank us all for the love?
You Are Mine
Everyone has their obsession
consuming thoughts
consuming time
they hold high their prized possession
it defines the meaning of their life
You are mine
Check these guys out soon. Their live show is one of the best around, so don’t miss them if they come to town!
Let us know what you think!
