Musically Motivated Monday – The Distillers: Drain The Blood

the_distillers_2003Ahhhhh it’s Monday again. I’m a little heavy eyed as finally started watching Battlestar Galactica last night and got hooked… so watched the whole pilot and then the first episode…. great stuff :)

So I need a little motivation today. I cranked up my Last FM and started a Distillers related station. So I thought for this Musically Motivated Monday that I would share a great trakc by the now disbanded band….. Here is a really cool live version of Drain The Blood.

The Distillers: Drain The Blood.

Drain The Blood Lyrics
I’m living on shattered faith
The kind that likes to restrict your breath
never been a better time than this
suffocate on eternal bliss

In a city
that swells with so much hate
you seem to rise above
and take its place
the heart pumps until it dies
drain the blood, the heart is wise

All my friends are murder
All my bones no marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers

Away….

I never met a pearl quite like you
who could shimmer and rot at the same time through
there’s never been a better time than this
To bite the hand of frost bitten eminence

Lyrics
All my friends are murder
All my bones are marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers

Away….away……away….

whoa whoa whoa whoa…..

I’m alive in uterine
a star in the dark a new day has dawned
open up and let it flow
I’ll make it yours so here we go…

All my friends are murder
All my bones no marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers

Away hes gone away…… repeated until the end

Even though the lyrics are dark, they talk about new begginings and finding a new dawn… Perfect for a Monday Morning :) . I also think the beat helped wake me up today.

The Distillers were one of my favorite female vocalized Punk/Pop bands of the early 00’s. I don’t get a chance to hear much new music so if you can recommend any new bands to listen to I would be very happy :)

What do you think of this track? Let me know what is motivating you this Monday… or any day for that matter.
