Song 241
Hello my fello music lovers! Welcome back to the blog! Happy Pride! I hope you enjoy yourselves, and live your life authentically, and full of pride! Todays song is Dejected by Deadstar Assembly! They are pretty underground, l feel like they were maybe forgotten, or just didn't get off the ground as much as they had hoped. I love finding underground bands, and bringing them into the light! I give them the recognition they didn't get when they were around. I've kind of been obsessed with this song, as well as a few others. So let's get into it!
Starting with the intro. We have this really cool old school 2000s 2010s punk vibe to it. Which makes sense, since I would consider this genre to be gothic punk. These guys also looked really cool. This punk style intro, brings us into the first verse: "You swept me under the bed, now the ugliness rears it's head unshed. This darkening I'm over it, you've made me what I am today. Disgust is what you've raised unsaid, my awakening is far from dead." Already I love the theme of this song, it's very angry but also you feel the hurt as well. The pre-chorus: "So I'm not like you, no I'm not like you. Dejected for most of my life, so I'm not like you. No I'm not like you." I have also felt dejected for most of my life, it just seems like I get attached to people then they hurt me. It's a sad cycle I know, but I try not to dwell on that. And it seems like this guy doesn't either. The chorus: "So I'm crucified, I'm losing my faith. I'm hurting to feel. I'm searching and there's no one else here, if learning to hate is learning to feel, this life is so unreal. Abusing me again." It can feel like this at times sure, and I feel like this song is a great way to get out all those frustrations you have, not just with the world, but within yourself too. I really love the raw emotional journey this song take you on. Music like this, is so special. I feel like nowadays, music is so icky? I think is the best word I describe it as. Bring back music like this, please. There's a little instrumental, in between the chrous and the second verse. Also this line: "Dejected, rejected." Then the second verse starts. "A bad seed an utter degenerate, stained with your neglect unfed. The blackest sheep irrelevant, you made the stigma I enslave." This section here, I feel like he's talking about feeling different, not just from the world but from his own upbringing. The chorus repeats over and over, without a bridge. But it all sounds so cool, and I find it very therapuetic. Which might sound crazy, but it does help. I also really love the outro on this song, it actually ends the way you'd think a song to end. There's no sudden stop, it keeps going for a little bit. That's what I'm looking for!
I encourage you to check it out. Who knows, you just might find your new favourite band! I don't think they are still making music, because their last album was in 2017. But still they great songs. Until next time happy listening! RAWR XD <3
