Un Viejo Vicio: Atlas Sound

Bradford Cox mintió y no dejó que lo extrañáramos ni un poquito después de haber declarado que su banda se iba de hiatus por un rato. Técnicamente dijo la verdad, Deerhunter se iba de hiatus pero él no. Su proyecto como solista, Atlas Sound, saca su álbum debut, Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel, esta semana y está bien bueno. Aquí está la primera prueba:

Atlas Sound - River Card


Estas son las palabras del mismo Bradford, escritas en su MySpace, acerca de River Card:

Based on a Puerto Rican short story, "There's a Little Colored Boy at the Bottom of the River" about a lonely kid who stares into the river and sees a boy (his own reflection) and thinks its someone at the bottom of the river and he like falls in love with his reflection or whatever and drowns.
I turned them all away
I turned it all away
when i leave there's nothing left to say
i won't answer my phone
you call it all you want
river runs and takes the boats away
i thought i'd never see
river so clear and mean
how many others have you drowned?
river's bottom dark and blue
why do i love you so?
river so clear and blue
i'm so in love with you, but you'll drown me.
you'll drown me.
river so clear and blue
what it takes to ignore you
how many boys have you drowned?
chokes me until i'm dead
there are places in my head
that i could never conquer.
river so clear and blue,
i am in love with you.
river's bottom dark and blue,
why do i love you?
you'll drown me.
you'll drown me.
etc.
