Crow: Light

One listen.

I was wanting to write about another song today when I wrote this earlier. Decided on this song… I don’t know why. I think it was mostly due to not doing many songs with vocals. I’m not sure as to how well I covered the song though. This does describe it, sure, but it might be a little too far away.

Crow’s “Light” is from My Kind of Pain.

I hope you enjoy.

A low hum which guitar comes out above, playing light notes. Percussion approaches, tense and dark, along with bass, and the guitar continues. Vocals float and drift, and seem more a sound than something clear. More guitar hums and stretches and soon it all changes. There’s a greater thrust; a drive before it pulls back to darkness once more.

The second guitar hums and stretches, and moves through time whilst the vocals become a bit more clear, but still indistinct. Once more the instruments rise and drive, and then they unleash into a torrent of rage, massive, swirling and scraping. The vocals howl before it hits a sort of pause point.

A return to the main pattern, but a little lighter. A bit more tense, though also quiet. It flows on in beats and stays in its darkness. The vocals return, seemingly more distant, but also closer, in a dark night. Everything takes off once more, swirling in a fury that reaches for something greater; something of a release, perhaps.

All grows in intensity, and pushes on, continues thundering forward before everything stops and grows quiet as the song ends.
