Easy! Easy! Easy! Easy!

Here's the video for "No Lucifer," the second single from British Sea Power's latest album, Do You Like Rock Music?.




EASY! EASY! EASY! EASY! EASY! EASY!

Hey you, give me the dummy tits,
Forget the rest of the shit
The man with the skull and bones,
You think you know, but you don't.

To Sodom I will go,
Not to Megiddo.
Several Lucifers come,
We can beat them all.

A Carlton Corsair,
A Raleigh Twenty, yeah!
A little lost roe deer,
The wind in your hair.

NO LUCIFER!

Come on, Allons-y let's go,
Can always just say no.
To the anti-aircraft crew,
The boys from the Hitler Youth.

Silk and cyanide,
Six weeks left alive.
Metal, skull and bone,
You think you know but you don't.

To Sodom I will go,
Not to Megiddo.
Several Lucifers come,
We can beat them all.

A Carlton Corsair,
A Raleigh Twenty, yeah!
A little lost roe deer,
The wind in your hair.

NO LUCIFER!

EASY! EASY! EASY!

Is that what the future holds?
Is that what the future holds?
Kevlar or cherry wood,
Malevolence or good.

Is that what the future holds?
Is that what the future holds?
Is that what the future holds?
Is that what the future holds?

NO LUCIFER!

"Waving Flags" - British Sea Power

This is the first single from British Sea Power's latest album, Do You Like Rock Music?. It's been out for a while now, but I think you should all give it a listen, since you probably haven't heard it yet. People have been saying it sounds like Arcade Fire, because it's sort of "epic" sounding and BSP's an indie band, but honestly, it doesn't sound a bit like Arcade Fire, because they're completely awful.

Following the sneering squall of Noble's lead guitar in the intro section, co-frontman Yan bleats, "You are astronomical fans of alcohol, so welcome in," beginning the theme of camaraderie that holds this track together like a close-knit gang of teenagers. In the second verse, it's a similar sentiment. "Are you of legal drinking age? On minimum wage? Well, welcome in!" "Waving Flags" is a song about the joy and sense of invincibility that overtakes you in those flashing moments when you feel as though you've got the whole world at your back. It's not working-class pride, it's something much more--something universal. In the chorus, Yan moves into a lower tone as he sings, "You, you're only here for a while, and it's all a joke," and you know he's right. It's a song that's encouraging even when it’s sober—it’s morbidity with a hearty slap on the back from your mates. It's a song that comes from an understanding that we all need something to take the edge off, and yes, we do like rock music.
