SILVER JEWS / Bright Flight (2001)

Dobro ste pročitali, PUNOKRVNI! Naime dva albuma iz druge dekade novog milenija nisu probavljivi kao prethodnici. Tim novitetima (bila su to u biti zadnji doprinosi Davida Bermana) zadnji je Bermanov trag na ovoj planeti.

U biti je odradio mini turneju sa Willom Oldhamom – neloše ali ne i doprinosno. Hrpa crnog humora kako u autorskim skladbama tako i coverima. Spomenimo npr Radioheadovu Exit Music (for a film) koja postaje ,,,(for a dick).

Iz određenih razloga, David se objesio početkom kolovoza 2019. Time je postao jedna od rijetkih zvijezda suvremene glazbe koja preferira konopac nauširb vatrenog oružla. Time je nastavio kročiti utabanim stazama (Ian Curtis, Tomaž Hostnik…)

Mnogo više možete doznati iz ovog rasnog albuma, kao i iz Davidove zbirke poezije Actual Air. Oba su uratka sa početka novog milenija! Poetska ostavština, kao i glazbena govore mnogo više o Bermanu no što bi se reklo!

TIME WILL BREAK THE WORLD

by David Berman

The sun and the shutters and the sun shattered hair
The butler hesitates at the top of the stairs
A kitten from Great Britain sleeps behind the drapes
An old silver bowl filled with apples and grapes

It’s so very cold in the mansion after sunset
The snow is blowing through the baseboard outlets
And I have no idea what drives you, mister
Tanning beds explode with rich women inside

All my poor, hungry children
Time will break the world

The snow falls down so beautiful and stupid
For the black silhoutte of Abraham Lincoln trees
The sky’s low and grey like a Japanese table
And my horse’s legs look like four brown shotguns

The icicles are dripping like the whole house is weeping
On an evil little car with gull-wing doors
And I have no idea what drives you, mister
But I’ve killed you in my mind so many times before

All my poor, hungry children
Time will break the world
