Wondering how many more followers they got thanks to American Dad. I got hooked only by hearing Majestic, but this keeps on getting better for each song i hear.
@@danielmolina118 This singer, Jim James has THE most angelic voice. He makes Enya sound like a Russian couple arguing at the bowling alley. ua-cam.com/video/zs7FG7usAAw/v-deo.html
I still listen to this band and this song especially. I had been going through a really hard time a few weeks ago and this song popped up and brought me to tears. It helped me contemplate my feeling of anger towards the world and I came out a better person because of it. Thank you, Wax Fang.
It's not, it makes people think. Most of the popular songs have no meaning and if so its obvious, but they call it deep. One of the things this song is about is the singer is going through turning from christian to agnostic.

+Wax Fang I just wanted to say to you guys that it is obscene how underrated you all are. Your style is original, your lyrics are some of the most poetic I have ever heard, and this song is FAN FUCKING TASTIC. The day that you guys stop making music will be the day that a little part of me dies. Thank you for existing, Wax Fang. I love you guys, and I am proud to call you one of my favorite bands.
Check the covers for spiders before you go crawling in bed You long to lie down beside her and plant ideas in her head You are children of angels and you're living in sin Well they've got just the place for the kind of trouble you're in And her hair smells like flowers and you're counting the hours between thunder showers Unleash your new superpowers don't be a coward Did you come to remember, or did you come to forget? You went looking for Jesus and found the devil instead So many convictions about life after death But you just can't believe in any single one of them And it's all on your shoulders feels like a boulder and you're just getting older Universe seems to grow colder each time you behold her Alpha-Man, father of everyone's children The king of the kingdom of men You father your sons and your daughters All of them follow your every command You sire them all on your own Then you kick them all out of your home Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone Tuck the old folks into their new homes Watch the skin slip off of their bones Watch out for pigeons on the telephone poles They will shit all over your clothes Alpha-Man, father of everyone's children The king of the kingdom of men You father your sons and your daughters All of them follow your every command You sire them all on your own Then you kick them all out of your home Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone! Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone!
So when God or Yahweh created the first two humans and then kicked Adam & Eve out of Eden he “sired them all on his own, then kicked them out of his home.” Then the sons and daughters of Adam (all of humanity) who God fathered obeyed his every command (excluding Cain and those “living in sin” who still exist in the present “expecting children of angels” [this also refers to the passing of generational sin mentioned in the book of Exodus/Leviticus that goes on for four generations] despite their contradictory way of living which conveys the whole paradigm of the scientific debate of the effect of “nurture” on a child rather than just “nature” although both of these seem to play a role. Then in the ending chorus the singer commands “alpha man tell all your children to leave you alone” which is akin to saying God (being the “alpha man” which is akin to the first entity that originated out of the primordial chaos to develop consciousness and create energy and heaven, earth, and life as we know it and everything else) must command his servants “Jews & Christians” to leave him alone as he has not fared up to his promises as well as the whole notion of love as afterall he abandoned his own creation that he made in his image (man). So in other words this song and it’s lyrics can be seen as some form of gnostic revelation whilst concurrently being a rebuke of God himself and his only begotten son Jesus Christ as well as the Holy Spirit; perhaps a form of antichrist anthem or rebellious psalm.
Wax Fang really knows how to make some very beautiful songs. I don't usually listen to songs like this but I just love this singing voice and instrumental parts. Keep up the good work Wax Fang!
It seems like every time Wax Fang is on, you just don't hear, you don't just listen...you experience. True Art provides a window to the Transcendent. You guys nail it.
If their fangs are made of wax then may their claws never wane. Really amazing how only 40k views... This is post rock at its best. Spread the word on your part of the world, people. I'm doing it in my little corner of the northern hemisphere... Maybe I'll live long enough to see them coming to Portugal.
It's really taken a year for someone to comment with this point (ha!)? The wax/wane wordplay isn't a fallacious sentiment, but rather a metaphor for how Wax Fang's tunes grow on you. A predatory animal like the lion will grab you with the claws first, then sink it's teeth into your vital arteries. While a play on words with a nonsensical surface representation seems to be a non-sequitor, it makes sense, given the sparse nature of Wax Fang's release dates for new stuff. Claws are retractable, therefore they can "wax/wane" during use. OP hopes that if the fangs are made of literal wax, that the claws never retract because they enjoy being ensnared by the claws of the music. GTFO "Actual Research".
For all of you who want a somewhat deep analysis of the lyrics in this song here is a brief summary I wrote regarding some of the lines to provide you a more holistic understanding of the artist’s meaning and expression in this song: So when God or Yahweh created the first two humans and then kicked Adam & Eve out of Eden he “sired them all on his own, then kicked them out of his home.” Then the sons and daughters of Adam (all of humanity) who God fathered obeyed his every command; hence the line “You fathered your sons and your daughters, all of them follow your every command” (which is a reference to the human beings that share the qualities of Cain and those “living in sin” who still exist in the present. Then you have the preceding line “you’re children of angels but you’re living in sin” which refers to Genesis Ch. 6 and several other books where gods angels left their estate in Heaven to to breed with human women and create a doomed hybrid race known as nephilim which became known as titans and giants whom were ultimately destined to corrupt more human flesh and live a life of sin” thereby question another part of God’s creation as this was the doing of his angels who were created prior to man to do his bidding yet nonetheless rebelled at the hand of Lucifer. And this can also refer to the passing of generational sin mentioned in the book of Exodus/Leviticus that goes on for four generations] despite their contradictory way of living which conveys the whole paradigm of the scientific debate of the effect of “nurture” on a child rather than just “nature” although both of these seem to play a role. Then in the ending chorus the singer commands “alpha man tell all your children to leave you alone” which is akin to saying God (with God being the “alpha man” as Revelation states God as being the “alpha and the omega” which is akin to conveying that they were the first entity that originated out of the primordial chaos to develop consciousness and mold themselves in the same image that later became man; hence the term “alpha man” to create energy and heaven, earth, and life as we know it and everything else and being the only one to hold the power of creation breaking the first law of thermodynamics which we’re all bound to; which is that nothing can be created or destroyed; which is matter or in other terms just plain energy) that must command his servants “Jews & Christians” to leave him alone as he has not fared up to his promises as well as the whole notion of love as afterall he abandoned his own creation that he made in his image (man). So in other words this song and it’s lyrics can be seen as some form of gnostic revelation whilst concurrently being a rebuke of God himself and his only begotten son Jesus Christ as well as the Holy Spirit; perhaps a form of antichrist anthem or rebellious psalm.
I had left a comment but somehow it got deleted? So can this song be consider blasphemy? I was also curious about the line " You were looking for jesus but found the Devil instead" is that a reference to the theory that Jesus is lucifer ? (The morning star or the light bringer) wich free masons believe in, since they worship lucifer
I would rather hear this than any band on the radio in my area. There is good music out there, it’s a shame it does not get the credit it deserves. I’m hoping to make the long drive and catch them live in Louisville this year.
i quote from "majestic" of wax fang: "if you're searching the lines for a point, well, you've probably missed it. there was never anything there in the first place." it's not that i have no idea what their songs mean that makes me love it. it's that these songs refuse to be interpreted strictly, that makes me love them.
It's kinda new to me - Found it only a few months ago - Also like The Astronaut and Majestic - Found Majestic about a year ago - All three are on my playlist - Awesome - Going to buy both CDs soon -
"Watch out for pigeons on telephone poles, they'll shit all over your clothes" hahaha.... but it means to not put anyone on a pedestal because they will only let you down the higher you set your expectations... such beauty and purity in the song
+Michael Linkovski I have always thought Wax Fang was a mix of Pink Floyd and Cat Stven's. Although he has such vocal and musical range, his sound reminds me of a lot of artists while still sounding 100% original.

Wax Fang. The most underrated band in rock and roll history.
They are new but they will grow!
the best
Check out Andrew Jackson Jihad
@@artisimo7967 i would not consider ajj "rock and roll"
@@ryancyan9309 doesn't matter there still cool
It's just sad. I still listen to Wax Fang. Amen, every single one forgets.
I will never forget and always come back!
I never thought American Dad would ever be this useful
Blasphemer!
This plus my morning jacket. Yep. They put me on a few times actually
@@Celadian67your morning jacket?

Yah ikr
Wax Fang is my new temporarily favourite music group.
I still listen to this band and this song especially. I had been going through a really hard time a few weeks ago and this song popped up and brought me to tears. It helped me contemplate my feeling of anger towards the world and I came out a better person because of it. Thank you, Wax Fang.
Same here ❤
WAX FANG'S SPACE-ROCK OPERA, THE ASTRONAUT, IS NOW AVAILABLE. BUY NOW ON VINYL, CD, & DIGITAL @ www.waxfang.com/store
+Wax Fang I LOVE THE ASTRONAUT
already did. have yet to regret my purchase.
Please rework this song for TOP 10 now, just more gradation and melancholic text. Then you will earn a lot m* ! Great song at all now! :)
Wax Fang didn't know vinyl still existed
Goddamn i love you people
I suggest laying down, put on this song and close your eyes and think about what is really important to you. I get up feeling great.
“The universe seems to grow colder each time you behold her” 😭so so true
This feels like a small piece of history that many people will not find
i play this and many of your other songs at least once a month every month and will continue till im gone
thank you and god bless
Truly the Song of All Time... thank you wax fang
This is a masterpiece. Wax Fang at their best are on another level.
I hope Wax Fang takes over the world soon!
Me too.
+Rob Mather I really hope so :)
isn't the songs message the opposite of talking over the world as seen as something good?
meant 'taking' oc...
It's not, it makes people think. Most of the popular songs have no meaning and if so its obvious, but they call it deep. One of the things this song is about is the singer is going through turning from christian to agnostic.

+DressedLikeAGhost Films INDEED AMEN
+DressedLikeAGhost Films Never heard of these guys until a few days ago. Great music ! kind of a jazz / folk / rock vibe.
This is Amazing, i didnt think that people made music like this anymore...
Check the covers for spiders before you go crawling in bed
You long to lie down beside her and plant ideas in her head
You are children of angels and you're living in sin
Well they've got just the place for the kind of trouble you're in
And her hair smells like flowers and you're counting the hours between thunder showers
Unleash your new superpowers don't be a coward
Did you come to remember, or did you come to forget?
You went looking for Jesus and found the devil instead
So many convictions about life after death
But you just can't believe in any single one of them
And it's all on your shoulders feels like a boulder and you're just getting older
Universe seems to grow colder each time you behold her
Alpha-Man, father of everyone's children
The king of the kingdom of men
You father your sons and your daughters
All of them follow your every command
You sire them all on your own
Then you kick them all out of your home
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone
Tuck the old folks into their new homes
Watch the skin slip off of their bones
Watch out for pigeons on the telephone poles
They will shit all over your clothes
Alpha-Man, father of everyone's children
The king of the kingdom of men
You father your sons and your daughters
All of them follow your every command
You sire them all on your own
Then you kick them all out of your home
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone!
Alpha-Man, tell all of your children to leave you alone!
Thank you for the lyrics 🙂
merci l'ami
I will lose hope in humanity when no one leaves the lyrics in the comments. Some beautiful soul always does it and keeps hope alive.
Thx search and here it is
So when God or Yahweh created the first two humans and then kicked Adam & Eve out of Eden he “sired them all on his own, then kicked them out of his home.” Then the sons and daughters of Adam (all of humanity) who God fathered obeyed his every command (excluding Cain and those “living in sin” who still exist in the present “expecting children of angels” [this also refers to the passing of generational sin mentioned in the book of Exodus/Leviticus that goes on for four generations] despite their contradictory way of living which conveys the whole paradigm of the scientific debate of the effect of “nurture” on a child rather than just “nature” although both of these seem to play a role.

So in other words this song and it’s lyrics can be seen as some form of gnostic revelation whilst concurrently being a rebuke of God himself and his only begotten son Jesus Christ as well as the Holy Spirit; perhaps a form of antichrist anthem or rebellious psalm.
I will see this band live, one day. That day can not come soon enough.
Have you seen them live yet?
@@BlueCosmology How about now man?
You make music for music makers. Genius.
Wax Fang really knows how to make some very beautiful songs. I don't usually listen to songs like this but I just love this singing voice and instrumental parts. Keep up the good work Wax Fang!
this band is so underrated
Great Awesome Excellent Flawless Godlike
One of the best songs I ever heared.
Come to Arizona! I live in northern az but ill come down to phoenix! to see you guys.
It's like a band called Pink Ozzy Bowie.
I can't get enough of this shit.
I really does sound like something Bowie would have made in the modern era.
How come havent i ever heard about this amazing band? Damn i've been missing a bunch...
its kind of ironic i listened to majestic right before this song and this song is absolutely *MAJESTIC*
I also found this band because of American Dad, and everything else I have heard by them has been fantastic.
You might even say it’s majestic 😂
It seems like every time Wax Fang is on, you just don't hear, you don't just listen...you experience.
True Art provides a window to the Transcendent. You guys nail it.
5:15 if there was a heaven then when we die this should be the background music as our souls leave our bodies and ascend to the sky
Considering that this is a song about the exact opposite of that, probably not
Why I can't give a like every time I heard this? Masterpiece.
With every song released, I just want to see you guys live that much more!
around 5:00 i had to stop everything i had done at the moment and just listen.
great music!
Brings me back to when music was for listening to....
So beautifull, i hope he do new song soon.
eternien wish granted
Yeah i see that the last week ^_^
This must be the worlds greatest song all time high!!! Im crying niagra falls every time i hear it!!
dude..that voice...unique! Great great great band!
It's like 'at sea' and 'the doctor will see you now' coalesced into extreme awesomeness!
This must be what Davis Bowies dreams sound like, Awesome
When I first heard this I could swear it was Bowie.
Ah yes, Davis Bowies. My favorite musician.
My God I still listen to this.
one of the best songs in the world
If their fangs are made of wax then may their claws never wane.
Really amazing how only 40k views... This is post rock at its best. Spread the word on your part of the world, people. I'm doing it in my little corner of the northern hemisphere... Maybe I'll live long enough to see them coming to Portugal.
That first sentence was a non-sequiter with no meaning.
Poetry liberty...

That voice. Its so... different. I love it!
Agreed
im fucking up how did this song slip past all these years?!
I’ll always come back to this song when The days hittin a lil to hard
Woahdude me too
you guys need to be seen by more people
I'm so happy I have found them
This sounds like a Cat Stevens/David Bowie hybrid
Damn it DOES sound like Cat Stevens
I agree, but add Peter Gabriel in the early days. :) Hybrid of the 3 to me
I found them from listening to Portugal. The Man!!!!
Mind-blowing and this is 2018 x
I swear man, that eye is staring at my soul.
It's like the 60's are back!
Thank you Nathan Chase, I didn't know I needed this way back when.
Beautiful
Thank You for this song. It's is everything.
this reminds me so much of David bowie R.I.P
This reminds me of wax fang
I'm fall in love with this band
Holy cow what great music! I just now found out about fantastic musical group!
I first heard wax fang when I watched an episode of American dad, and I thought This is fantastic! The guy's voice was tremendous!
New music from wax fang!!!! I need to take a minute and prepare my ears before I hear pure perfection! !!
For all of you who want a somewhat deep analysis of the lyrics in this song here is a brief summary I wrote regarding some of the lines to provide you a more holistic understanding of the artist’s meaning and expression in this song:

I am just discovering this... but I LOVE it. You guys rock.
When you're through with your David Bowie discography, start with wax fang.
Very good song!
Gotta love these guys.
I believe Wax Fang has some elements of early Klaatu (3:47est./Hope) - mid 1970's. Greatest band I have heard in awhile - Thanks!
Yes I agree so much, a little more modern but I could see the influences
This is the most awesome song I've ever heard!!x)
hated it at first but slowly got better, wax fang is weird like that.
its funny because I feel like thats the case with almost all the artists I grow to love.
Ha sounds like NMH. Couldn't stand that shit the first time I heard it.
Harris Clarkson this happened to me too but not with this band , infant anihilator yes
You guys are out of this fuckin' world!!!!
I would rather hear this than any band on the radio in my area. There is good music out there, it’s a shame it does not get the credit it deserves. I’m hoping to make the long drive and catch them live in Louisville this year.
This is absolutely delightfully amazing! The hairs on my neck are standing up.
American Dad brought me here. Now I love Wax Fang
2024 still amazing
This is the best thing I've ever heard, today
I really hope they come to Adelaide, but doubt it :(
fuck spotify, youtube is so much better to discover hidden gems of a band like this one.
Oh my god I just came across this amazing band, Im in love:)
With different text and more gradation this will be HIT song.
This band is fantastic!
so fresh did anyone else get this recomended
Mac Kobalt yee
I have no idea what wax fang's songs mean and I love it
i quote from "majestic" of wax fang: "if you're searching the lines for a point, well, you've probably missed it. there was never anything there in the first place." it's not that i have no idea what their songs mean that makes me love it. it's that these songs refuse to be interpreted strictly, that makes me love them.
Cartooon are the best method for discovering interesting musical artists
great music! greets from austria!
greets m8
Wax Fang is amazing! :)
These lyrics fucking hit me in the feels
love what you guys do keep going
Love the Bowie-esc vibes from this.
love it
Id fuckin love to see these guys live
Love - Nothing but love - So new and wild -
+DaYSki Austin not really new and not really wild but nice nonetheless
It's kinda new to me - Found it only a few months ago - Also like The Astronaut and Majestic - Found Majestic about a year ago - All three are on my playlist - Awesome - Going to buy both CDs soon -
Thank you.
the deadly syndrome and wax fang are two of the most underrated bands
I love you guys!
"Watch out for pigeons on telephone poles, they'll shit all over your clothes" hahaha.... but it means to not put anyone on a pedestal because they will only let you down the higher you set your expectations... such beauty and purity in the song
or whatever
wonderful
Someone who worked to make American dad heard this band and though "holy shit we have to get these guys the publicity they deserve ASAP"
Excelente.
2021 nice
I love Wax Fang. The vocals here remind me of Cat Stevens
+Michael Linkovski I have always thought Wax Fang was a mix of Pink Floyd and Cat Stven's. Although he has such vocal and musical range, his sound reminds me of a lot of artists while still sounding 100% original.
pinecrustjuise Pink Floyd comes to mind too, especially The Wall
Majestic
love it.
6 years later i still love it!!
