Music Monday: Sea Wolf

So, Sea Wolf.
They're on the New Moon soundtrack. There are a LOT of great bands on there.
I really like the singer's voice and the sound of the whole band, but you know I'm a sucker for good lyrics.

We met in the east
Poured in like a flood
You're the whispering kind
Dark sapphire blood
You're a vision of veils
All shimmery white
Like a backdrop of sails
All aglow from the light
--Wicked Blood


your arms are lovely
yellow and rose
your back's a meadow covered in snow
your thighs are thistles and hot-house grapes
you breathe a sweet breath and have me wait
--The Violet Hour



And my current favorite of theirs: White Water, White Bloom and the lyrics in their entirety.

I felt the cold of the ice and water
Come flowing through as it pulled me under
I saw my hand reaching out in the ether
And touched the branches in my cold white fever

Flow, white water, flow
Down to me

I heard you calling in the city canyons
I should have waited by the window lantern
But I went running through the moonlit forest
Alone and searching for the cold white current

Flow, white water, flow
Down to me
Flow, white water, flow
Me out to sea

And coming through the mist
Into the calm and clear
In the emerald gleam
I can feel you near
The dogwoods on the banks
Glowing in the gloom
On every naked branch
A beautiful white bloom

I see you running in the tall wild grasses
Young and free along the river rapids
Your body floating in the foreign air
Your lovely hands reaching down from there

Flow, white water, flow
Clean on through
Flow, white water, flow
Me o'er to you

And coming through the mist
Into the calm and clear
In the emerald gleam
I can see you near
Standing on the shore
Glowing in the gloom
And from you parted lips,
A beautiful white bloom

On a side note, I'm getting irritated with the snobby possessiveness of 'original' band fans. By this I mean that there are endless comments surrounding all these 'Twilight soundtrack" bands' (Muse, Sea Wolf, Band of Skulls) video clips, fans hollering derision toward the widening fan base due to this phenomenon... Well, guess what? Your special band actually wants to make money and agreed, nay, in some cases offered, to be part of the craziness that is "The Twilight Saga." Cry me a river!
I'm off my soap box now.
