 Song 124

Hello my fellow music nerds, welcome back to the blog. This review is dedicated to someone really special to me, someone I've been in love with since I met them. I just didn't know it at the time. This person means the world to me, and I love them so freaking much. They're the one who actually got me into this band, thank you R love you <3 Okay on with the review. Today I will be reviewing Girl's Not Grey by AFI! A really underrated band as well, I feel like they're not talked about enough. Starting with the intro, it's a beautiful combination of drums and guitar arranged in a way that makes you wanna head bang. The strumming pattern on this one is cool. The intro leads us into the first verse: "I'll lay me down tonight much further down, swim in the calm tonight this art does drown." I'm not gonna analyze this one, so I'll just be writing the lyrics out. Moving on to the chorus: "What follows me as the whitest lace of light, will swallow whole, just begs to be imbrued. What follows has led me to this place, where I belong with all erased. What follows." I just really love the melody on this one, it's very nice listening. The second verse: "All insects sing tonight the coldest sound, I'd send God's grace tonight, could it be found?" Not sure what this means, but I like it. At the end of the repeat of the chorus, I think this is where the bridge would be. "Watch the stars go out tonight on sinking ground. I'll lay me down, I'll lay me down." Only it's not in the place you think a bridge would be, I wouldn't even call this a full bridge. That's a cool layout, I love songs that have different layouts. There's not much of an outro, it just has this little strum. Then it ends. Which is fine, I like that. 

Yeah, a really good song. Actually the whole album is pretty great too. Highly recommend you check it out. See you next time :)
