8-7-11 - "The Loneliness And The Scream" ~ Frightened Rabbit

The other half of last night's Death Cab For Cutie show was Frightened Rabbit, and they were swell.  Being the opening act, they played a fairly short set and left out a few of my favorites, but they did a bunch of my other favorites, and also caught my ear with this one from their latest album, which I have to confess hadn't previously hit me hard like it did when they closed with it last night at the show...




This one is all about those times when we are unsure of ourselves, when we feel alone despite being surrounded by people, when we need a catalyst to remind us that there is more to life than the dreary routines...




I was hoping to find a live recording from last night (I wasn't shooting video), but nobody has posted one yet so here's one from a few days ago in Detroit:




"We fall down, find God,
just to lose it again..."
