«I Deerhunter hanno scritto un album di fantascienza sul presente»: così il comunicato stampa speditoci da 4AD sintetizza il nuovo album della psych band statunitense. Why Hasn’t Everything Already Disappeared? è il disco che segue a distanza di tre anni Fading Frontier e, ad anticiparlo, abbiamo fin da oggi un piccolo gioiello di canzone intitolata Death In Midsummer. Trovate tutto nella pagina dedicata. Di seguito il testo del singolo.
Death In Midsummer
Come on down from that cloud
And cast your fears aside
You’re all here and there
And there’s nothing inside
May God’s will be done
In these poisoned hills
And let the devil be cast out on his jail
Hey!
There was a voice that called me
There was a light that burned me
Come on and let’s be sure
Let’s not pave the way
Your friends have died
And their lives, they just fade away
Some worked the hills
Some worked in factories
Worked their lives away
And in time, you will see your own life fade away
There was no time to go back
There was no time to go back
Come on!
They were in hills
They were in factories
They are in graves now
They were in debt to themselves
And what is it made of now?
I go around and feel how it fades
I walk around and I see what’s fading
Walk around and you’ll see how it fades
Walk around and you’ll see what’s faded
