HEALTH :: DEMIGODS

FROM HEALTH :: RAT WARS

EXPERIENCE HEALTH

And they pronounced
That a child was born long ago
Hear me now…
You demigods
Either lift me up or let me burn

Sorrow…
Sorrow now
(We turn the other way)
Sorrow…
Sorrow now
(We turn the other way)

Didn’t you want to run?
Didn’t you want out?
Death shall come to the child in me
Did you want to know?
Or did you want the lie?
A long goodbye to what we had

Shall we renounce…
From where we’ve come…
And who we were?
You’ll hear me now, you demigods
Either let me go or put me in the dirt

Sorrow…
Sorrow now
(We turn the other way)
Sorrow…
Sorrow now
(We turn the other way)

(Turn the other way)

Luckless child
Born still
Lay your weary head down

Loveless child
Burden of many
May they bury you deep

Loveless child
Burden of many

Loveless child
Bury you deep

YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER
YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER
YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER
YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER
YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER

I love how one of HEALTH’s slogans is “worse yet to come” even though their drops just get better and better

[hellbreakfast]

I just had all the powerful emotions all at once. C&C is like THE formative childhood game I had, along with Diablo. Those two pretty well and good informed TONS of my tastes. My grandfather, father and I all played it. Seeing my fave band use the cheesy cutscenes in one of their best songs to date is just... I know no one reads comments, but it's a surreal bittersweetness I feel now.

Only HEALTH would put out a music video in 2023 that uses videos that are both in 4:3 and 360p and still go unbelievably hard af

[ShadaOfAllThings]

Health music videos are all over the place. One you get Johnny Health walking around in an Asuka plugsuit at comicon, the next we get is literally a fucking Red Alert AMV

[-pROvAK]

It's literally not possible for these guys to touch something and it not turn to gold

[synthdad]

1. This is some fine and proper cum metal
2. Command and conquer in a 2023 music video, truly incredible

[trajan]

With the vocals muted, this track makes a good main menu theme for a future C&C-game.

rat wars shaping up to be top 3 health album. every song has been just awesome, cant wait to see you in March

[MonsoonMoonrock]

Lovely track, Frank Klepacki would be proud! The Red Alert games are some of my favorite games of all time, glad to see them and their fantastic crew of FMV character actors getting some love.

After 3 months of Health dropped this banger, EA added Command and Conquer Ultimate Collection to Steam, if Health makes Demigods 2 we'll get Remaster Collection 2.

[McHox]

wtf is that ending, i need a whole album that heavy

[buttertool]

I can't put into words how much I love the Command and Conquer tribute, you guys are awesome

[thisisivanov]

That beautiful ending sounded like a "hell march" homage ;)

To be honest, you need to possess a remarkably refined musical sensibility to fully grasp the intricacies of HEALTH. The sonic nuances are exceedingly subtle, and without a solid understanding of experimental soundscapes, most listeners might miss the depth of their compositions. There's also John Famiglietti's avant-garde approach, seamlessly woven into his musical persona - his influences draw heavily from unconventional genres, much like the avant-garde movements in art and music. Devoted fans comprehend this; they possess the musical acumen to genuinely appreciate the profound layers in HEALTH's work, recognizing that it goes beyond mere entertainment - it speaks volumes about the human experience. Consequently, individuals who dismiss HEALTH simply reveal their lack of musical sophistication. They wouldn't grasp, for instance, the brilliance in Famiglietti's sonic signatures or the conceptual depth in their albums. I'm nodding approvingly right now, picturing those musically unsophisticated souls scratching their heads in perplexity as HEALTH's genius unfolds through their speakers. What a pity... how I sympathize with them. 😂 And yes, by the way, I do have a HEALTH-themed tattoo. No, you can't see it. It's exclusively for those with an ear finely tuned to avant-garde brilliance - and even then, they must demonstrate a musical IQ within a certain range of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

I was such a dork back in middle school that not only did i buy the red alert deluxe edition but i wore the NOD pin that came with it on my jacket. Banger soundtrack CD included. Thanks for this HEALTH.

I discovered HEALTH last month and I simply fell in love with this band, damn it only has bangers. My favorites are BODY/PRISON, STONEFIST and CHILDREN OF SORROW

[zealotlee]

I think this might be my favorite RAT WARS track so far. You guys never fail to impress.

[SuperTornado]

Health as of late has been creating some of my most favorite songs to date! No one makes music like they do. YOU WILL LOVE EACH OTHER

[joesaiditstrue]

this might be Health's best track

[AngryBudgieNoises]

Sometimes I feel like this band looked right into my head and pulled everything I’ve ever loved and felt out and put it into art… it makes me feel less alone.
