they invented a new genre, "jesus-core". when the rapture happens, people will be deapitated and rivers filled with the blood of sinners, all to the tune of the entire ATDI discography, over and over
and over
I CAN'T WAIT
jesus hoes, god damn jerome, why oh why couldn't you just stick to the upbeat music,
it makes me sick when i think of it, all my heroes could not live with it so i hope you rest in peace cause with us you never did
jesus hoes, god damn jerome, why oh why couldn't you just stick to the upbeat music,
when i wanna listen to ubpeat music, i listen to the ATDI/Sunshine split where its like spastic techno with cedric mumbling spanish every once in awhile
Or listen to Defacto. Almost all of At the Drive-In is upbeat though, don't know wtf you talking about.
Well there's two ways I see this - my friends think ATDI is sad because you know, the lyrics really are sort of sad, but when I hear ATDI, I just gotta start dancing like a maniac, and in that respect it's very upbeat. I only feel the urge to dance to ATDI and TMV, and maybe a ska band or two.
My favorite examples of the ATDI paradox are "Arc Arsenal" and "Embroglio". Both have pretty heavy lyrics but I just start shaking my ass like my middle name was Juan everytime I hear them.
ATDI aren't that special (apart from One-Armed Scisscor)
I really wasn't that big of a fan until I went through a few steps
1) saw live videos - holy shit
2) discovered the plot between TMV's De-Loused and Frances albums, increasing my respect for omar
3) LISTENED to the music, like alone in a room with nothing but atdi/tmv on for hours on end, and really understood the talent behind the sound engineering and guitar
It's beyond the music, for me, as well. They're the musical version of Rudy, the guys everyone in their hometown of El Paso said would never go anywhere and did. They respect old friends and are really sentimental, it's cool like that.
