lyrics

The rock was about one mile wide;
We didn't stand a chance, we didn't stand a chance.
From the moment it split through it terrified us,
But it didn't last long, it didn't last long.
The disaster possessed a familiar face,
I saw it in a dream, I saw it in a dream.
Our deaths rained down through blue sky and space,
I never got to say, I never got to scream

Chorus:
The feeling that surrounds this town is wicked,
I feel it in my bones, this earth is afflicted.
All the time I spent with my head in the clouds
Could not prepare me for when they fell, fell, fell, fell down.

Then everything that stood was flattened;
That was just the start, that was just the start.
Those alive wondered how this happened,
And when will it end, and when will it end?
Despair became a familiar face,
On everyone around, on everyone around.
Our deaths rained down through blue sky and space,
We couldn't turn away, we couldn't make a sound to say

Chorus

Dear Meteor, you brought such darkness to us, yeah you
Shot down our core and left us eating your dust
And now in you we trust.
Dear Meteor, please hear out our song,
You know we felt it coming all along.
Between the dreams and all the prophecies
We believe you to be the cure for our disease.

Time Stamp
by Annuals

I've loved this band for years, and this "swan song?" of a record is a capstone. Their genre varies from folktronica tropicalia to straight up indie rock with some Pro Tools turntablism thrown in. Caleb Bailey

Home (2009)
by Gavin Castleton

Gavin is one of those songwriters that changes his genre/concept on almost every album. If you like this (or if you don't) give another one a try. This one's a zombie scare relationship thing. Dope. Caleb Bailey

Tribute To Snake Charmer's Music
by HolyPalms

Holy Palms did a great thing with drones and snake charming music. Dirty and satisfying, with some great beats and strange ... whooping sounds? Caleb Bailey
