Meh, Love Is Dead was a bit disappointing, easily their weakest release, but this one? Yeah, Screen Violence is up there with Bones and EOE (my personal favorite until SV released).
I'd say give Asking for a Friend another shot. The beat drop at 2:20 is out of this world. Also the John Carpenter remix of Good Girls I love- th-cam.com/video/ypUwRjH9sAU/w-d-xo.html
@@chriscountry6394 It's between Violent Delights and Asking for a Friend for me I think, Asking for a Friend reminds me of Ace of Base and Pet Shop Boys funny enough
for me it's insperational incredible love them so much. when i was driving home feeling lost and very philosofical this song brought a tear to my eye so then i just put it on repete till i got home
I felt like production took a hit on EOE and LID, everything felt kinda overproduced/plastic compared to all their prior albums. this one feels to me like they're going back to their roots, i could be completely wrong on how they produced Screen Violence but i feel like her voice is back to being more blended into the music rather than being way out in front like it was the last 2 albums
Anyone else new to Chvrches and sort of old (50) like me? I like this a lot it kinda takes me back to 80s and 90s and after so much turmoil it's a place I can go...
CHVRCHES ARE BACK!! Their new album is their best work in years, after 1st album and some good singles like Death Stranding. They balance synthpop, electronic very good again. Making it so emotional like their first songs. Welcome back! :')
This whole album is amazing, I just hope Lauren is okay because as a whole, the album is also incredibly dark. Really hope she is okay and knows there are people there for her. Can't bear to lose another favourite artist like when Chester went
I think it's why Passion Pit stepped away a bit too, ended up making a whole secret album based on his experiences with bipolar disorder and since then he's just been releasing stuff to streaming and that's it. The music industry as a whole has serious issues with mental health. Still, for a lot of artists (myself included) making stuff like this is a vent that helps.
Agree, this album is amazing and their new style impressively good, while dark and even somewhat angry. It can be reflected in their (her) music, and even Lauren's new look... she used to be so cute and nice, now she looks a bit more mature and serious. She looks good and always pretty though, but I hope she's doing okay too.
All her music in my opinion has darkness to it or loss etc - like she’s so light but yet so dark...I guessing she’s an INFJ- I can relate lol! Light on the outside dark on the inside and so wise about relationships and love/loss so young. She sings what I am thinking so eloquently- her song writing is A+!
That drum loop is so Firestarter, love it. Amazing album. Getting snippets of The Sundays (Static & Silence era) in some of the vocal at various points through the album
This album is a gift that keeps on giving. Who could be disappointed with such encapsulating lyrics and beautiful Synthpop styles of new age 80s feel songs. Chvrches forever!
It's when you see footage of this live, you realise just how many of the sounds on here are coming from the guitar and bass. This band understand production and they love their guitar pedals! In fact, Martin has been building his own and they've just collaborated with a stomp pedal company to release a pedal called Screen Violence named after the album
Had a dream your father died I couldn't scream I couldn't cry The second night, I dreamt you drowned You couldn't fight You were not found These violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone A photograph will steal your soul An epitaph won't make you whole If I disappear, thеy'll say I killed myself I nevеr feared for my own health These violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone I don't want to see it I don't want to see it I don't want to sleep alone, no I don't want to see it I don't want to see it Never sleep alone again, no I don't want to see it I don't want to see it I don't want to sleep alone, no I don't want to see it I don't want to see it Never sleep alone again when I'm gone These violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone Alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone
One of the best music albums I have heard in a while. I have always been impressed with how they have refined and improved with every album release while simultaneously staying true to their genre. Never leaving form but constantly growing.
Lyrics: Had a dream your father died I couldn't scream, I couldn't cry The second night, I dreamt you drowned You couldn't fight, you were not found These violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone A photograph will steal your soul An epitaph won't make you whole If I disappear, they'll say I killed myself I never feared for my own health And these violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it I don't want to sleep alone, no I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it Never sleep alone again, no I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it I don't want to sleep alone, no I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it Never sleep alone again when I'm gone These violent delights Keep creeping into my nights And they're reading my rites And I'll never sleep alone again And these violent delights Keep bleeding into the light And I'll never be right And they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone Alone again when I'm gone When I'm gone
“These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness And in the taste confounds the appetite. Therefore love moderately; long love doth so; Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.” ― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet ... here is the quote...
I was really afraid that the How not to Drown master piece overshadowed the rest of the album, but even if it is the best song the album was filled with several other jewels as well, thank you Chvrches : , )
@unknowboy7189 What's happening? Hope you're staying true to yourself, brother. Whether you feel strong or weak, wishing you that you stay true to yourself 🧡🙏🏼👊🏼
@@scorchingstarbhaskar7011 I made a lot of mistakes in my life now i pay the price and the demons in my head dont let me sleep is some heavy shit but fuck it.
This song is so hauntingly beautiful. The sound is like my 2 favorite bands, CHVRCHES and The Birthday Massacre, came together to produce a gem! Thank you for this!
Love it! Production for this track is brilliant from start to finish. The use of amen breaks is superb, absolutely genius. The arrangement and overall composition is unmatched. Quite literally can not get enough of this. Not to mention Mayberry's vocals never disappoint.
I'm apparently a top 1% listener of CHVCHES, and I have this song to blame. I love it, and it's introduced the phrase "violent delights" into my diction. I know the phrase is from Shakespeare, but this song unpacks its meaning beautifully.
Love this song!!! California is an amazing piece of beauty. Lullabies is very a precious track. Nightmare is a very nice - dark. Final Girl is distinctly very nice. My favorite five.
This is absolute masterpiece. Unfortunately i found your band only last week. Youre amazing! Your voice , your sound!!!! Amazing. Very underrated that i never heard you on top of charts.
Love the build up to the chorus . It has an ethereal feeling Makes me wonder about Lauren though . I get the feeling that she isn't happy. I hope she gets to feeling better
Amazing tack! Was listening to it and Final Girl a lot today. Those are my favorites of this album, except He Said She Said and How Not To Drown that were released before.
The first time this song started and Lauren came in with the vocals, it cutted deep into my soul. I don't know why this song of all their songs touches me so emotional, but I love them so much for it
Screen Violence is offically Chvrches best album 1. Better if u dont 2. Lullabies 3. How not to drown 4. Violent delights 5. Final girl 6. California 7. Nightmare 8. He said, she said 9. Asking for a friend 10. Good girls
This is heavy. Its dark, unbelievably dark. The lyrics could be from some depressive doom metal band and you wouldn't notice. You know my first language is not english so I didn't listened to the lyrics first, but the music itself is so emotional and that I heard immediately. It can break your heart. Hauntingly beautiful.
@@sebastian98981 Yeah or at the least the direction they went for in the last album and never return to the radio pop sound they did in Every Open Eye. Its the weakest album in my humble opinion
Yeah this new album is paving new paths I love the synthgaze sentiment it makes me really want to share this with my friend who got me into shoegaze.... He's An extremely huge Robert Smith fan so I think convincing him to listen won't be hard 🤔🥳
Words cannot even express the emotions that run through me while listening to this song....this album is sooooo soooo amazing 🙌 😍 and this is definitely my fave
I hadn't planned on staying up all night listening to Chvrches, but here I am.
Obviously, you didn't have a chance to leave;)
Sounds like a good night!
Exactly same situation here - I subscribe every word from you! All songs are captivating - thank you Chvrches!
This song might be my fav on the album
SAMEEE , it's 5:48 am
Fuuuuuuuck. This is surely one of the most beautiful Chvrches songs ever written.
This band truly never disappoints.
Almost true, Every open eye is the weakest album so far, it kinda dissappointed in my humble opinion
Yeah...I think they do. The last two albums had their mehish stuff. This one is the strongest they've put out since the debut.
Oh, I love Every Open Eye. I thought there were only a couple weaker tracks.
Meh, Love Is Dead was a bit disappointing, easily their weakest release, but this one? Yeah, Screen Violence is up there with Bones and EOE (my personal favorite until SV released).
except when their last album came out lol, but other than that I agree
After listening through the album, this is the one that really sticks out to me. Soooo good!
really? I loved literally all of em lol
It was the use of amen breaks that hooked me.
it was the only one that stuck out for me
Same, this and How Not To Drown are my favorites
I'd say give Asking for a Friend another shot. The beat drop at 2:20 is out of this world. Also the John Carpenter remix of Good Girls I love- th-cam.com/video/ypUwRjH9sAU/w-d-xo.html
THIS IS THE BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM!
Best song of the game death stranding!
Now with bitter end idk which to pick
Faxxx
@@chriscountry6394 It's between Violent Delights and Asking for a Friend for me I think, Asking for a Friend reminds me of Ace of Base and Pet Shop Boys funny enough
This track is a masterpiece.
Ha ha,master peice of crap,listen to a real band with a similar name..CHRCH,there alot better than this pop crap..
Headphones on eyes closed let it take you. Incredible song
for me it's insperational incredible love them so much. when i was driving home feeling lost and very philosofical this song brought a tear to my eye so then i just put it on repete till i got home
These dark and emotional Churches songs hit different holy shit. One of my favorite my tracks across every album
Can't believe how perfect this album is!!!!
Each album was better than the last
@@YouNicIceYNI No way. This album is very decent but they haven't come close to TBOWYB since it came out.
The song that hooked me on them. Came on randomly and I was completely captivated by it.
Their production is the finest here. I'm happy to hear great songs of them like this.
I felt like production took a hit on EOE and LID, everything felt kinda overproduced/plastic compared to all their prior albums. this one feels to me like they're going back to their roots, i could be completely wrong on how they produced Screen Violence but i feel like her voice is back to being more blended into the music rather than being way out in front like it was the last 2 albums
Anyone else new to Chvrches and sort of old (50) like me? I like this a lot it kinda takes me back to 80s and 90s and after so much turmoil it's a place I can go...
THE CVRE really influenced this album. I'm so glad these guys are carrying this legacy through the modern era
bit shouty though
Still can't believe I'm only finding this recently. This is one of their best songs imo.
found this one from the KEXP LIVE. Went there for Final Girl Live stayed until the end and discovered this gem!
I was scared the singles gave away the rest of the album but this one here proves how creative and talented Chvrches really are
This is their best song ever. No doubt.
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
CHVRCHES ARE BACK!!
Their new album is their best work in years, after 1st album and some good singles like Death Stranding. They balance synthpop, electronic very good again. Making it so emotional like their first songs. Welcome back! :')
god, i've been listening to this album on loop and this one and lullabies just get me emotional every fucking time.
chvrches IS a blessing.
This whole album is amazing, I just hope Lauren is okay because as a whole, the album is also incredibly dark. Really hope she is okay and knows there are people there for her.
Can't bear to lose another favourite artist like when Chester went
I think it's why Passion Pit stepped away a bit too, ended up making a whole secret album based on his experiences with bipolar disorder and since then he's just been releasing stuff to streaming and that's it.

All her music in my opinion has darkness to it or loss etc - like she’s so light but yet so dark...I guessing she’s an INFJ- I can relate lol! Light on the outside dark on the inside and so wise about relationships and love/loss so young. She sings what I am thinking so eloquently- her song writing is A+!
This album is Perfection
stop acting like y’all married to those artists, it’s creepy.
That drum loop is so Firestarter, love it. Amazing album. Getting snippets of The Sundays (Static & Silence era) in some of the vocal at various points through the album
Chvrches is the only band who consistently puts out music that I play on repeat. This music truly touches my soul 🥰🎧
zero days without listening chvrches, since i've discovered them
This album is a gift that keeps on giving.
Who could be disappointed with such encapsulating lyrics and beautiful Synthpop styles of new age 80s feel songs.
Chvrches forever!
Musical perfection!!! Who’s with me!!!!
This is the most 90s thing I've heard in HOURS.
And I have zero problems with that.

Had a dream your father died
I couldn't scream
I couldn't cry
The second night, I dreamt you drowned
You couldn't fight
You were not found
These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again
And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone
A photograph will steal your soul
An epitaph won't make you whole
If I disappear, thеy'll say I killed myself
I nevеr feared for my own health
These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again
And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone
I don't want to see it
I don't want to see it
I don't want to sleep alone, no
I don't want to see it
I don't want to see it
Never sleep alone again, no
I don't want to see it
I don't want to see it
I don't want to sleep alone, no
I don't want to see it
I don't want to see it
Never sleep alone again when I'm gone
These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again
And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone
Alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone
thanks 😊
I've now realised, this songs darker than i thought.
😁
Song for the insomniac
Awesome, thanks for putting up the lyrics ! 😎👍
@@victoredgefield141 no problem 😉
CHVRCHES never disappoints with their deep cuts
Hope this becomes the next single
I really loved this melancholy on the song... especially the 'violin' intro! Lauren's voice on 'when I'm gone'... I felt that!
Another classic for the ages. THANK YOU CHVRCHES!!!
One of the best music albums I have heard in a while. I have always been impressed with how they have refined and improved with every album release while simultaneously staying true to their genre. Never leaving form but constantly growing.
I've never really had a favorite band before. I like a lot of very different genres.. Then I discovered chvrches. Chvrches is my favorite band.
The perfect candidate for the next Official Music Video

Ok. Let's be honest here. This is just the best track CHVCHES have produced! Period.
Top 5 for sure
No, Night Sky still exists. Best track on the album no doubt.
3rd place for me, after Science/Visions and Death Stranding.
@@paullaing5921 ooo night sky is up there...
And the Amen Break creates another absolute banger.

He Said She Said underrated
how not to drown might be my most favorite CHVRCHES song, but the album has a lot of others that are also up there
Well this is the best damn thing I've ever heard.
Nothing to add, it really is. I am just out of words.
the vocals on this song give me chills. incredible.
Ok this is my fav from the album
This honestly sounds like a Ghost in the Shell SAC ending. Good job guys
haha, I was thinking the same thing! It's the beginning of the song, really reminds me of Origa. (rest in peace)
Thirded!
Congratulations on the new album, every song is an absolute blast! Infinite thanks and greetings from Augsburg from Wilma and Theo!
The drums in this song are just *chef kiss* mmmwah delicious
This is violently delightful.. My most listened track on Spotifty this year despite it being released only in the fall
Your songs always light me up, love from Taiwan.

Omg this is my new favorite of Chvr 💖😄
Love the build up to the chorus . It has an ethereal feeling
Makes me wonder about Lauren though . I get the feeling that she isn't happy. I hope she gets to feeling better
I think she's quite happy. They induced the darkness by watching horror flicks.

what a beautiful song!
This is so beautiful ! Thankyou
Love the new album...this track strangely feels like Deftones white pony era...lovely
What an amazing song, can't wait to see them again in Nottingham in June 😁
I've been listening to Chvrches for 6 years now and this album leaves everything in the dust, it's really a masterpiece.
I have a chance to see CHVRCHES this November in Chicago! Can't wait
waited so long for this kind of art and passion! Thank you chvrches! i love your music! Specialy today it gives me so much power!
