Now Playing: Joseph Arthur
Topic: Music
I LOVE Joseph Arthur's music, but sort of lost touch with what he was doing since I moved here. So, when I saw that he'll be here on Tuesday (I hate going to shows on a "school night". I'm so f-ing old.) I thought about making an exception. Yeah, he's worth it.
I decided to check out his website and see if I could listen to anything off his new album.
I loved his haunting melodies and wicked-ninja-awesome lyrics on Redemption's Son. He has a true gift for combining his imagery with his musical genius. Amazing.
Apparently his new album will not disappoint. Here are some lyrics from: all of our hands
"until we clothe the naked, all of us are damned..."
"and in time, fire will rain down on our head, the sky will open up and life will be bled."
"murder by indifference, murder by our greed, murder by our riches taken from the ones in need, murder in our churches and murder by belief. We who just do nothing will be murdered in our sleep."
This song will give me something to think about for years.
