ah yes, my favorite genre of music "is this song about sex or murder"
It feels like both!
Yes.
Sex With a Ghost is another good one
@@Aeo267 good one!
both!
How this song manages to make me feel both like I’m being cornered by a predator, and like a feral Monster on the hunt I will never understand.
literally had a dream about this feeling at 14, in which I was hunting myself and experienced both perspectives at the same time. It's been many years since that dream but it is still lodged deep within my memory. This song dredged up the memory.
Well that is pretty much the meaning of the song
@@momosanpeach 2nd person dream
3:28 i love how she laughs a little bit while singin "i wink but you don't get the joke"
the chills i get when HE says “no, no, not i” like fuuuuuuuuuck
3:43 if yall are curious and missed it
ohhhh my god like SIR that is a fuckin panty-dropping tone if i've ever heard one
I personally have multiple ways to interpret this song, but my favorite is to think of those folktales about creatures like selkies being captured. there's many different ways these stories go, and many different variations of creatures similar to the selkie (for example, I believe there's an old Nordic fairy/folk tale about swan people?).
(if you don't know, basically selkies are kinda like mythical shaper shifters that are seals, but can turn human when taking off their seal pelt. this does leave them vulnerable, however, because if someone stole their skin they can own the selkie)
but basically it goes something like: the woman selkie's skin being stolen by the man, and she to be married to and enslaved by him, all the while the animalistic instincts in her want nothing more than to tear his throat out and flee home, but he has her skin and she is trapped.
often the relationship is toxic or even abusive. there's still stories were they both try so hard to love one another, but the creature's nature makes it hard to settle. at best, they end with the creature getting their skin (or other binding item) back and fleeing. to the extreme, they'll kill the captor before fleeing, or they die a sad and painful death.
I know it sounds super depressing but I feel like this song perfectly captures how those beings might feel. (also sorry if I explained it all weird and ranted this long, I just think it's neat and kudos to you if you read this far)
this is so beautiful, thanks for sharing
I don’t think I’ve ever experienced a song that makes me feel this way. It makes me squeal out loud every time. I was sitting on my bed listening when a storm started and I’ve never felt so powerful. There’s something utterly visceral about it and I am enamoured.
Particular shout out to Madeline’s incredible voice, the line ‘hello my hollow Holofernes’ and Joey’s ‘no not I’ at the end. Feral.
Why does this song makes me feel so feral???? I Just want to scream everytime I hear it
This song makes me feel like someone telling a story of how badly they were treated (like an animal, looked down upon and even beaten) and they become more emotional as they are explaining it.
She is in dissossiation. Has been for the past year, with random bursts of anger and panic. He tries to understand. He cleans plates off the ground and fixes the walls and tells her it's okay, but it never reaches her ears. He loves her but knows she isn't there. She knows he wants her dead.
The thunder grinds against the doors and makes her skin crawl, and she is getting anxious and nervous, she knows what lies behind the closed doors. It's thundering and he still has to feed their animals. The creature is out there.
She yells at him not to go, but he only hears a whisper. The animals be damned, she hasn't spoken in so long. He stays until he hears the animals. He needs to go. She can't let him, she kisses his eyes and pins him to the ground.
Her legs are weak and can't carry her and he feels this hug was more accident than intentional and he is right, but she keeps her arms folded around him. He hasn't touched her in long, she knows. It will keep him here, where it's safe.
But when they are naked and warm and dining the monster breaks through the window and she throws the plates at it to go away, as he hushes her, as he does not understand. The wind spooked her, but it was actually the monster.
And when he closed the window it was too late, it had gotten him. It was inside his skin, walking, crawling under his face and bones. She screams for him to come back, be good as he has been, and promises to get better, but it's actually just mumbles he can't hear. No, no, not I, not today, he whispers and comes to hold her down but she grabs a piece of the shattered plates and launches towards the monster to get it out of her man's beautiful face, and there is blood, and she is screaming because it was trying to infect her too, trying to walk under her skin, to steal her face.
And he isn't crying this time as he contains her arms and tries to stop the bleeding from her ribcage, because there weren't anymore tears to shed. It was because she was going to die and it was happy, she knew, but he was sad, so sad to see her terrified gaze.
She screams through the whole night, but sleeps soundly as morning arrives. The creature left her skin and her man is safe. His spouse is awake, although injured by her own hands.
For her own sake, he wished her happy dreams when slumber eventually consumed her mind once again. For his happiness, she wished to wake up soon.
Great writing! Matches the song so well!
The horrors of mental illness
dear gods this song awakens a feral wildness in my soul. makes me want to run and dance. to scream and howl in rage, joy, madness, freedom, carnal passion. to loose every beast I've muzzled and caged deep in my psyche. simply beautiful.
That scratching sound itched my brain in a good way
I JUST NOTICED there is a scratching noise in the backyard at 0:52
the fact that it repeats lyrics from Battle Cries (or rather it repeats the lyrics from this song) fucks me up, in a very weird way. No words to describe how these songs make you feel!
this song is so incredibly feral and I love it so much. this whole album is incredible
idk if everybody else has noticed this but!! i feel like “that unwanted animal” is the woman wanting to escape her abusive relationship
ive always thought of it as a woman in a happy relationship but her past traumas make it hard to appreciate it. that might be me projecting tho lol
i interpret it as a woman in a good relationship but is tamping down on self destructive tendencies
I always read it as two people trying to shag when they have kids and try to hide the sex when the kid comes in.
The scariest sex jam you've ever heard
i thought it said
*'throw the blade at the wall'*
which yknow
i think ill stick to that
I originally thought that too! It does sound cooler lol
I thought the same!
Same
there are a few of their songs where they mention throwing plates at the wall, one says ''the plates they smash like waves'' I think maybe they do that when they argue :D
@@captainjacksparrow7506 I looked for it’s meaning, and it’s like losing one’s sanity. When people start throwing plates at the wall you know they’ve reached an uncontrollable and extreme emotional state. It’s really smart writing actually.
This has so much feral energy, and I love it
Ahhh I love this! I love the way the skull and heart beat with the 'oh's, it gives it that extra feeling of power! And I also love the way that you have the lyrics written, in one sentence, as I've seen many lyric videos type the whole thing out as it's sung, which can be difficult to follow, especially when Madeline sings the lines so quickly! I also love the way you add Joey's parts in at the bottom, even the parts where they're singing together! All in all, a lovely music video, this song gives me the chills, especially the 'no, no, not i' part!! Thank you for making this!!
Thanks so much! I really wanted to get at least some of the emotion of the song into the video by adding the lyrics in time, and it didn't feel right leaving the bits with no lyrics empty when the music makes me feel so feral lol
@@briannorelfhunter yesss i love it! It makes me feel so feral lol, i just wanna dance and run in a forest, but there might be something chasing me😨
2:12 THIS PART ???????? oh my god
This song fucking *SLAPS*
There are a lot of possible interpretations for this song. I'm personally hearing a failed attempt at repressing trauma.
"The creature" represents the trauma, it's shut out and ignored, growing more violent and destructive, preventing the singer from focusing on their lover and causing outbursts (it wants me to throw a plate at the wall), until it eventually breaks down the door, tears her apart and causes her to completely destroy her happy life.
This song just always makes me want to write stories about werewolves, and I LOVE it.
I've been listening to this on repeat for about 4 hours now haha, it's amazing 💚
Now all we need next is the karaoke version
Am i insane or does the "No, no, not I" sound like Mads Mikkelsen
I feel like its a woman in love with a fae and never knows how to make him love her "the right way", or more humanly, while the fae is more interested in secc
for a while I thought the lyrics were “throw the blade at the wall/to the wolf” (wolf being the “unwanted animal”) but alas😭
Minecraft warden when I hide behind a wall: AND YOU RIP MY RIBCAGE OPEN AND DEVOUR WHAT'S TRULY YOURS AND OUR SCREAMING JOINS IN UNISON I CRY OUT TO THE LORD
I have no idea what this means, but I love the sound too much to care 😍
Fng A
It felt like the song tried to get my deepest darkest wishes and pain out and it was suffocating me tbh. This is a bit too much for me. Especially because I came here from Rise of TMNT animatic and it just HURTS
sounds like something that would be in a Last of us trailer
Thanks for the lyrics video!!
The algorithm did good today
this is Agata from lapvona if she had a tongue, you can’t change my mind
Absolutely brilliant 😈
Does anyone knows similar bands or songs? I need more
Anything by Amazing Devil is amazing :D
Faun is a German band but they have similar folk style songs. Very good
Skáld, Heilung, Wardruna, Danheim, The Hu, Eivor
Those are all nordic folk kind of ones but they have the same earthy pagan vibe and its beautiful
The American murder song, they wrote devil's carnival and repo a genetic opera. Wonderful songs. Same vibe
I’d check out The Crane Wives and AlicebanD!
3:08
benjamin woodside from hell followed with us is that you?!?!?
WHY
ARE
YOU
EVERYWHERE I AM
This gives me such Feyre and Tamlin vibes when she starts to realize how horrible he’s become and gets revenge
From a Court of thorns and roses?
It actually makes sense, hadn't thought of that
👍
soo good
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
