My Identity: Adrenaline
Welcome back to DAY 5 of WACKY MUSIC WEEK!! Identity 3 came out the same year I graduated High School!! The summer of '97 was a crazy time in my life, and it was fueled much in part thanks to this CD. Full of incredible bands for sure, but one I fell instantly in love with was "The Gathering"!
When I first heard "Adrenaline" I was immediately swept away by the trumpeting sounds of a medieval army emerging over a hill. I loved the transition from horns to hard rock that 'The Gathering' perfected! My formidable years were the perfect time to grasp onto this female vocalist lead act! Anneke van Giersbergen's lyrics were so easy to listen to, grasping the meaning was a bit more challenging. But hey- I was a dumb 18 year old, and to me she just sounded amazing!!
"what makes you forget is the structure
you're in, all your life
can't you feel there is the animal inside
growing roots, still, inside your mind
________________________________________________
suppress your underbeing and let them rule
you don't care, yeah you don't give a damn
as long as you've got your car
do you actually go so far, as giving in your
adrenaline away"
We're only 2 more days from the end of Wacky Music WEEK!! We have a couple more jams left to cover! Do you love what you've heard thus far? We'll be back in 24 hours ready to rock your flurking socks off on Day 6!!!
