Propaganda under the cut

Jackboot Jump:

someone on tumblr said that this was his least streamed song and that’s criminal. this song is really stripping away the metaphors and subtext and just stating outright what’s wrong with the world. specifically government censorship and military violence. plus double check this but i think all proceeds are donated to blm!!

propoganda for NFWMB: (if ur still accepting it)

The man references Yeats' poem "the second coming"

"What rough beast,its hour come around at last, slouches towards Bethelem to be born?" - Yeats

To Bethelem, it slouched and then it must've caught a good look at you" - Hozier

Yeat's poem is about the spiralling chaos the world is descending into and Hozier directly leans into that chaos for this, the love in this song comes off as possesive and heady, a "love song for the end of the world".

Ugh his mind, Hozier the man that you are

Finals will begin today!

[ultimate-hozier-tournament]

Shall we do a round of best new release next? The four in Unheard and new leftovers from Wasteland Baby?

That could be interesting, I have been wanting to do a non-album tournament for a while so that could be the next tournament

Damage Gets Done

It's off his most recent album but I don't see lots of discussion about it. This song makes you feel nostalgic and the chorus just shoots you into the sun with those high notes.

Foreigner’s God:

The utter sorrow of having your own cultural history stolen from you by invaders from before you were born, woven with the way the religious structures brought by those invaders make your lover feel not at home in her own body, both mirroring each other and yet completely unable to heal each other!!! I can't
