When I worked as a producer of a Sports Radio show I would occasionally use this song as rejoiner music. Probably the only time this song has ever been on the radio

I had a dream this song was in the “A Bug’s Life” soundtrack

[elmarkymark]

Absolutely insane the amount of great bands from this era where they release very little with such massive talent, and then split up into obscurity never to be seen or heard

I first heard this song a month ago. I absolutely loved it. Im in my 50s. I guess some good ones slip through the cracks, , glad i found it.

The first scream of the song is one of those magical moments of this genre.

I just found this band today and to say I am amazed is an understatement

[SamiamAntischism]

The guitar in the begining is so beautiful! You can tell the song is just going to be a rager!!!! And it definitely is. Such great music back in the 90s. I ❤️d SINKER & STILL LIFE & Bob Tilton as well. Cannot forget Moss Icon & Indian Summer & Amber Inn. 1 more Cap N Jazz & so many more Emotive Hardcore.

Honestly, with all do much much respect to those forebearers and those that came after, this is timeless brilliance that should define what we refer to as emo.

[PeterBogolub]

Saw this band back in 96. Still one of the best shows I have ever seen.

[anishbhattacharya]

These band write not lyrics but poetry. Beautiful songs.

it's funny, this video was uploaded in 2011, by the time I stumbled on it in December 2013 (when I was 18 yrs old) it only had 30 likes and 0 dislikes. at that time I sent this song to my friend asking what his opinion was because I started to think that I was crazy, as I thoroughly felt and appreciated this song at that time. I said "its as if nobody appreciates this music the way I appreciate it", to which he responded "yeah but you appreciate a lot", so that didn't really help. I'm glad to see that it's found it's appreciation cuz it felt kinda lonely at that time. Now I don't even feel much anymore when listening to this music, I think skramz is THE music that some young adults need, and it just took a while for the new generaiton to find out about this as they guys who might've listened to this in the 90s are now boomers, and now I feel myself boomerize and becoming mundane.

this is the only song that feels like living through a love story. it feels somber and induces memories of times we never experienced. the intensity builds up and releases after a calm and quiet introduction. it sonically encapsulates the sudden rapture of infatuation that happens when you start to fall for someone and when you fall away. its strange this feeling doesnt occur with any other song i've ever heard. but this is also unlike any other song i've ever heard lol. and it doesnt feel pretentious or obvious. it feels more like a story than a song. and thats why its so damn cool. i feel lucky to have been alive during a time when this song was being listened to by so many when it was destined to just fade into obscurity.

I have never heard anything like this, certainly at the time nor ever after. this.

Lyric:
We start to get away from ourselves, with great aggession
So many questions
We looked at the setting sun
There's nothing more than our own twisted imaginations
Often times I find myself back in the east or whatever
Just to kill whats happening in my eyes
My eyes

To find your true love
Doing more than intended
Help me
Yes it's true i love you
Hey

We start to get away from ourselves, with great aggession
So many questions
We looked at the setting sun
There's nothing more than our own twisted imaginations
Often times I find myself laughing hysterically
I'm just a kid whos grown up in this house
My own home

To find your true love
Doing more than intended
Hey
Yes it's true i love you
Hey

Transistor
Transistor
Transistor

Put the video in full screen, stare at the point in the middle of the nose with minimum blinking, then when the song end look at something white and blink quickly

[obzocrc]

[ken]

YES ITS TRUE I LOVE YOU YES ITS TRUE I LOVE YOUUU
