Song of the Day 4.10.12

It's always interesting to listen to a song and listen to the lyrics. When I was younger I would listen to songs mainly for the beat of the song. However, over time I have enjoyed the beat but have also listened closely to lyrics too. Some bands can insight thought provoking lyrics, and others can be more straight forward. This song is a little unsettling at times. The music is great, but the lyrics tell a story that isn't for the faint of heart. La Dispute has taken a scenario (in this case a shooting) and retells the whole story. The lyrics have no rhyme or meter, but they are very poetic. Think beat poetry set to music. Off their newest album Wildlife here is La Dispute with King Park
