Absolutely magnificent The return of Arab Strap and the absolute quality of this, turning and Compersion has been such an unexpected delight The album cannot come quick enough
It's the story of a predator who's created a life of ruin for himself. For some reason though, that guy believes it's everyone else's fault. None of us made you gay for pay at the bar
Apparently this is my most-played track of the year. Not sure how... Not denigrating it in any way, I love the song. Just questioning Youtoobs Yootoobing.
This is incredible. Found these guys via the goth subreddit. Anyone have suggestions for similar artists doing incredible music like this in 2021? Thanks and 93 to all
Excellent! And the video, Jesus. Doubly appropriate as the song itself kinda smells like the inside of a plastic Halloween mask after a night of Trick or Treating, and I've now got a slit on the tip of my tongue.
@@guillermosantamarinalagune6184 It's a music video. A piece of entertainment. Yes, it's horrifying but it's not _real._ Besides, I was comparing the feeling of the song to my memories of Halloween, not the video itself.
@@ursaminorjim ok, i'm happy it amuses you. Probably your life is economically and morally exented, or plainly safe out of these family tragedies. I know well Art could be sublime, hurting, not just through entertaining. And I sincerely hope Aidan Moffat is now aware of that, while reaching the succesfull level of a healthy, wealthy and joyful social membership.
@@guillermosantamarinalagune6184 We all experience art in different ways, but I think we can all recognize that there are different layers to explore in a song (especially one this excellent). If I respond differently than you, it doesn't take anything away from your experience of it. And it's an equally valid response - there's no one way to enjoy something. But don't make assumptions about my life, please - you don't know me, you don't know my experiences.
I was scared they wouldn't still be as good. I was fearing for no reason.
Do you hear and see this? You should be scared. Not about their quality, about...us, I guess?
cocksure. Moffat always aims to please. gush
They're better.
True masters at the peak of their creativity - Arab Strap still pushing all the right buttons 2021 - thak you
But "she" that hides a dark soul, and foul thoughts. Benighted walks under the mid-day Sun; Herself is her own dungeon.
Milton 1634
Brilliant vid for a brilliant song by a brilliant band x
The new album is shaping up to be the best yet
Wonderful song: rhythm, melody, all wonderful.
yon Strap goeth goth-pop and methinks me well fancies it!
Absolutely magnificent
The return of Arab Strap and the absolute quality of this, turning and Compersion has been such an unexpected delight
The album cannot come quick enough
Slowcore, Alternative/Indie, Neofolk, Post-folk music.
I know their early stuff was extremely good but i can't help but think this is how it's supposed to sound. This is the apotheosis.
This is what a lot of folks in the 80’s & 90’s wanted to achieve, but failed miserably.
All hail Arab Strap!
Came here after seeing “Karen Pirie” : being 56 today makes me feel 18 again; really surprised how the music gets under my skin!
Je vous decouvre, et comment j ai mis autant de temps a le faire, quel album lumineux, melodique, un pur chef d œuvre du debut a la fin merci
Love the drumming
So great after all these years...i bought and just received the album...a new masterpiece...
All the singles have been fucking bangers. Martin and Aidan are killing it!
Who is Martin?
malcoms mate
@@johngraham1437 here we go trippy

Video + song are such a good match 🖤
The Strap are back! Brilliant
OMG! You guys are back and sounding just as incredible as ever :-)
Arab Strap still pushing all the right buttons 2021❤️
Jeezo, this is grim AF lyrically even by Arab Strap standards, but the tune itself is so utterly danceable..
It's the story of a predator who's created a life of ruin for himself. For some reason though, that guy believes it's everyone else's fault.
None of us made you gay for pay at the bar

Not denigrating it in any way, I love the song. Just questioning Youtoobs Yootoobing.

And i just stumbled upon them by accident now
This is incredible. Found these guys via the goth subreddit. Anyone have suggestions for similar artists doing incredible music like this in 2021? Thanks and 93 to all
Fucking fantastic
Not exactly the uplifting romp i'd expect from Arab strap
???? I think you haven't messed up
I may like this even better.
@@sedith40 you may have miss the joke, mate
What does the refrain remind me of?
I also know it from something….
Fucking great tune
Starts off a bit like Run to You by Bryan Adams
Ryan Adams is on the way to your house.
Was at a Malky show in Toon maybe around summer 09 and Malky did a brief bit of Run to You and talked about it.
Remember that show - at Cluny he loves Pat Benetar too definitely that influence in opening riff
Excellent! And the video, Jesus. Doubly appropriate as the song itself kinda smells like the inside of a plastic Halloween mask after a night of Trick or Treating, and I've now got a slit on the tip of my tongue.
Also - Aidan? You may wanna slip into some plastic gloves before opening your mail. Just a suggestion.
Halloween?... La tragedia de seres humanos desesperados te parece un espectáculo festivo?

bloody hell
Fuck me thats a good video !!!
I look like that guy holding the lead.
Sounds a lot like She wants revenge.
It's Aidan behind the mask...
I can't say I was too keen on this - I preferred their earlier work.
Strap fan from the beginning... you might need to try again, this is stunning.
