The Ocean - Pelegial Studio Report
I really like seeing how bands put things togehter and their process in the studio. As far as concepts go, The Ocean really come up with cool concepts to tie their albums together.

Ólafur Arnalds - Old Skin (ft. Arnór Dan)
Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea
Roves an oath, in search for something more to be
Still hard for me
Treading lightly, tightly shedding its old skin
Leaving trails of night for light to bring chagrin
While air grows thin
Wailing winds, alarm, in feathers it have dressed
Surrounding what's left inside its chest
We too shall rest
Roaring lungs, as oath becomes through flight past trees
Only the rhythm of love escapes the harmonies
Leaving us a beat
In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
While this world collides, this world collides
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me
In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
(Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea)
While this world collides, this world collides
(Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea)
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me
In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
While this world collides, this world collides
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me
This is absolutely beautiful. The lyrics, music, and video speak to me deeply. I feel like it's about the struggle of the introvert. The internal battle that rages between needing and wanting human connections, and the equally strong repulsion and inability to not feel inferior and socially awkward. The simultaneous desire for solitude and the end of loneliness. And the rational knowledge that there's cognitive dissonance getting in the way.
