“In dreams I’m moving through heavy water
The love is enormous its lifting me up
Id rather be sleeping
Id rather fall into tidal waves
And go where the deepest currents go”
I thought Id post the lyrics that go along with this song before just posting it on the site. There is an irony associated with the band Grouper. They are at the same time, an ambient band, made to set a mood and remain in the background, but at the same time I don’t think that there is an album ive listened to more closely than “Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill”. Grouper is a band that forces patience and concentration, the band paints beautiful swirling landscapes that could easily be missed by someone who only keeps them in the background, and the poetic lyrics are just as easy to miss, and like anything worth finding they are hidden well within the walls of sound.
