about
After featuring in blogs Talkaboutpopmusic and New Pop, Blackholestars, the New Zealand Indie Rock Band from Christchurch, are releasing the 2nd track from their Album, Halfway Home. The track, Monster, is about children being scared of the dark. The standout feature of this track is it's 3/4 timing and creative use of a live cello player.
lyrics
Mother, what shall we do, about the Monster that lives in the hall
I tried to outwit him tonight, but he knows me too well.
And I hear him calling me over tonight
Mischievous creature unseen for the moon in his eyes
Just call me insane
He only arrives when it's late, and he knows I'm awake
He hides in the corner and waits, with a grin on his face
And I hear him calling me over tonight
Mischievous creature unseen for the moon in his eyes
Just call me insane
