    "Black Eunuch"
    We are all walking in the dark with the scissors in our hand
    We are there when you fall apart when there’s no one in your bed
    We are all walking in the dark with the scissors in our hand
    We are there when you fall apart when there’s no one in your bed
    She said, “Please keep your smile away so we can still be friends”
    I’m standing single file
    While sex melts in my hand
    Desiring other things
    That other eyes in other rooms desire
    They pay her with their diamond rings
    Then she has me wait outside
    Then they come crawling out
    So, how dare you smile so sweet?
    [We are there when you’re in the dark when there’s no one in your bed]
    And how dare you speak so soft?
    [We are there when you fall apart with no one to hold your head]
    No, don’t try to undress me
    No, nobody else at all
    Nobody else at all
    Nobody else at all.

    once post punk was called punk-funk, and now this brings back the funk to the post punk

      "soul clapping" it is called....from the R&B of the sixties....a double-clap: usually with encouraged audience participation. You don't hear it much anymore....nice to find it here.

    I was doing my usual routine, 'q' was on as background noise when halfway through this song my ears noticed this cacophony coming from the radio. This is such a cool song, I thought. I had to check out this video by Al Jeers. I found it by searching Black Eunuch. This IS awesome! Wow!

      Ungreth Scheidelecker Kendrick lamar, lupe fiasco, viet cong, metz, father john misty, sufjan stevens, unknown mortal orchestra, Bjork, alabama shakes have all dropped albums I have thoroughly enjoyed. What I have heard from tame impala so far leads me to believe their album which will drop soon will be really solid. I'm sure there is a bunch of other good stuff I haven't listened to but who has that much time?

      A band that sounds similar to Algiers that just released a really solid album is young fathers. Similar genre mixing and in your face vocals and distortion

      @jodotohp 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just need to say yes, you are absolutely correct, one of the absolute tightest drummers I have ever witnessed (seeing as I've only been going to live music for, say, the last 15 years). Astoundingly good.

      Judging by the title, I would assume it is a protest of the castrated slaves during the ancient Middle East (because they were “black eunuchs”)
