“I’ve been known to look up at the sky. I feel lost in this world and I want to know why.” Ohhhhhhh boy im gonna be listening to this all day

[saintetheldreda]

no you dont understand cursed is so so quintessentially lord huron in such a major way. cause lord huron as a whole but i think strange trails in particular is about how the hopeless complexity and messiness and strangeness of the human experience can be transformed into something disarmingly simple, understandable and unexplainably familiar through music. in my eyes thats why the band relies so much on vintage aesthetics (presenting these strange things in a way that somehow seems old and timelessly familiar) and the charming scrappy diy aesthetic of the music videos. why the production of the songs always strives to sound epic and grand but in a way that also feels a little fuzzy and a little rough around the edges

and the premise of strange trails makes this really central to the songs with the idea that these are all songs by different people performed at the same dive bar. because the things that happened in these songs at the time must have been really damn emotional and often quite fucked up. but now theyre just songs in a dive bar. thats what happens to even the craziest things with time (long lost and time's blur anyone?). the stories are gone but the dive bar is left...

and cursed is such a perfection of this vision in my eyes. that lord huron trademark comedy/whimsy mixed with tragedy. the familiar (beautifully familiar and timeless love song cliches threaded all throughout it) mixed with the magical (THERE ARE RUNES ON MY SKIN-). the hoping/dreaming mixed with impossibility, stasis and despair. the wanderlust mixed with confinement. the love mixed with bitter resentment. there is no answer to the paradoxes in this song. they just are.

its all that messy complexity of human emotions in a melody that is resolutely cheerful, easygoing and fun, but kind of resigned. like its too tired to be anything else. what is even left at the end of it all but good music and good times dancing to it with friends in a silly little dive bar. these things seem small and trivial but at the end those are the memories and feelings that outlast all the rest

lord huron at its core has always been about humanising the inconceivable, the frightening, the overawing and the sublime and. and i just love that so much. what a beautiful sentiment to put out as a band in a world that can so often feel overawing, incomprehensible and frightening. and theyre here to just remind us when we start overthinking that no matter what were facing, its all just a matter of simply putting one foot before the other and remembering to live until we die. ugh. i love them...

[brellafaun]

fuck it nicheposting time. brellies as lord huron songs

Luther: the night we met. give me the sloane longing PLEASE. this man is so so sad and he deserved at least a little bit of crying lbr

Diego: she lit a fire. diegolila ANTHEM HEAR ME OUUUUUT. he's a hopeless romantic i know this for a fact. (bonus points for implied lila arson)

Allison: love like ghosts. allison is a living tragedy and so is this song. loving so deeply that you sink your claws into someone and end up hurting both of you. ugh god this woman is a walking greek tragedy

Klaus: not dead yet. kind of a downer, but it suits him a little too well. could be a pre-season 1 jam for him, maybe echoing some of the things ben said to him.

Five: twenty long years. sad old man hours. sometime during his apocalypse, when he's reflecting on leaving the academy and his siblings. the last bit being the sounds of people he encounters on his first mission,,

Ben: funny answer: cursed. iykyk. real answer: i will be back one day. the desire to be with others but being distant and the longing for something more,,, the vow to return and meet again,,, god i miss umbrella ben

Viktor: until the night turns. god i could write an essay on how this fits him. references to the world ending during the night. "bottle of booze and a beautiful girl" BARN SCENE I SEE YOU. faun dropping the thesis when

Lila: hurricane (johnnie's theme). "i don't feel alive if i ain't in the fight" hello yes canon compliance??? this song matches the normal lila levels of chaos. also giggling and kicking my feet thinking about her calling diego darlin'

[jonjaydami]

[batmanschmatman]

Hey!!! 1, 9, 11, 17, and 28 for the HBO War ask game please 😊

what is your fav part about being in the fandom?Getting to see all the fun gifs and videos and stuff folks make! I’m not as involved in the artsy side of fandom as I once was because I’m lazy about getting new software so it’s fun to live vicariously through folks who aren’t still running Photoshop Elements off a physical disk. 🫠

a ship you can’t get enough of? I am a basic bitch and am Too Invested in Winnix, Sledgefu, Baberoe, Webgott and Speirton, but for the last few years Dick and Nix have been the ones really in control of my heart. My wife made us Pops of them both and they are prized possessions!

songs that you associate with a certain character Dick Winters - To Be Alone With You, Sufjan Stevens

Gene Roe - Frozen Pines, Lord Huron

Joe Liebgott - Beware the Dog, The Griswolds

Ron Speirs - Hells Bells, AC/DC

Eugene Sledge - I Wanna Get Better, Bleachers

your favorite fan work about an underrated character? This incredibly sweet daemon AU fic with Andy and Eddie, A Boy and His Dog by Skew on AO3. I am extremely picky about daemon fic and people very rarely make good choices based on real animal behavior, and this one does it PERFECTLY. Also it’s very cute and Andy and Eddie don’t always get as much love as the other main ships so that’s my vote.

what’s something that lives in your brain rent free and you want everyone to know about the show/the fandom/your works? Dick’s love of ice cream, to the point of where it was suggested Nix could be bribed with whiskey and Dick with ice cream. Nix always going out of his way to stick close by and be there immediately to give Dick whatever support he can, be it intel or food or someone to talk to. Everything about New Jersey. Ugh just kill me, it’s great.

[wolfriver777]

dissecting my mdzs playlist

It is very small cause I don't go out of my way to find songs to associate with characters they come to me while I'm chilling. I have a bit to say and like also lyrics to force ya'll to read.

Things to Do - Alex G. I associate this song largely with Lan Xichen and post canon in particular. This lyric in particular drives me insane /pos "The calculator will make the same mistakes Yeah, I see it in its face" The lyrics in gen I think just really hit the spot for Lan Xichen.

I Wait for You - Alex G. Wangxian!!! More specifically Lan Wangji, it's just so them i encourage you to look at the lyrics, but of course the classic chorus "It's nothing new I wait for you" and the beginning " Selling pills to the girls when they cross the block I told him he should quit that sketchy scene He said, "Nothing compares to the fever dream" ughughugh *explodes*

Lacy - Olivia Rodrigo. Jiang cheng and Wei Wuxian yes easily chengxian too me cause of how kinda homoerotic the song is if you ask me. I wish I could just copy and paste all the lyrics here cause the whole song fits them so fucking well!!! I think the 2nd verse just hits the chengxian vibes the most "Smart sexy Lacy, I'm losing it lately I feel your compliments like bullets on skin Dazzling starlet, Bardot reincarnate Well, aren't you the greatest thing to ever exist?" The 2nd chorus also hits so hard but theres one more i want to add that just hits harder than the chorus, the final verse is just *chef's kiss* "Lacy, oh, Lacy, it's like you're out to get me You poison every little thing that I do Lacy, oh, Lacy, I just loathe you lately And I despise my jealous eyes and how hard they fell for you Yeah, I despise my rotten mind and how much it worships you" It's about the envy and its delicious

Can't Catch Me Now - Olivia Rodrigo. Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian, yes my brain also reads this with a chengxian vibe. I love the idea that through out those 13 years that Wei Wuxian's memory bitterly haunted Jiang Cheng, there's something awful about the idea of Jiang Cheng having an intense freak out because well, Wei Wuxian is gone, he's dead. " Bet you thought I'd never do it Thought it'd go over my head I bet you figured I'd pass with the winter Be somethin' easy to forget Oh, you think I'm gone 'cause I left" This verse in particular itches my brain just right and then of course the chorus as well drives me insane, when i tell you, you can imagine Jiang Cheng so breaking down to this song and it drives me insane But I'm in the trees, "I'm in the breeze My footsteps on the ground You'll see my face in every place But you can't catch me now Through wading grass, the months will pass You'll feel it all around I'm here, I'm there, I'm everywhere"

The Night We Met - Lord Huron. Lan Wangji, wangxian if you will. Honestly I shouldn't copy and paste another whole damn song, BUT this damn line "I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you" I'm just gonna explode again, yall should totally listen to the whole song or like read all the lyrics cause god fucking damn.

Wait for It - Hamilton musical. Jiang Cheng, Once again fellasI shoudn't copy and paste a whole 'nother song but fuuuuuck, admittedly I had forgotten how Jiang Cheng this song is until I'm listening to it to write this. "When they died they left no instructions Just a legacy to protect" look at me and tell me that doesn't have the vibes of the fall of Lotus Pier! Also the damn chorus god that just fits the vibe of of mdzs as a whole in my brain "Death doesn't discriminate Between the sinners and the saints It takes and it takes and it takes And we keep living anyway"... Mdzs is so just, there's a lot of grey area to me but god. I seriously cant post the whole damn lyrics but towards the end it get's very Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian and just ugh im going insane.

Night Shift - Lucy Dacus. Jiang Cheng, chengxian. Let me just copy and paste the whole lyrics again. This verse in particular "Am I a masochist, resisting urges to punch you in the teeth Call you a bitch and leave? Why did I come here? To sit and watch you stare at your feet? What was the plan? Absolve your guilt and shake hands?" and this one " Now bite your tongue, it's too dangerous to fall so young Take back what you said Can't lose what you never had" and of course the final verses(?) " You got a 9 to 5, so I'll take the night shift And I'll never see you again if I can help it In five years I hope the songs feel like covers Dedicated to new lovers" The way this verse is just repeated and builds up in sound and just yall, I'm screaming and crying just thinking about the vibes in my head that I just cant word! The whole "never seeing you again if I can help it" what if I was evil y'all?

True Blue - boygenius. Wei Wuxian. God I honestly don't know at this point what lyric made me pin point this as a song for him. It just definitely feels it can be about him you know. "When you don't know who you are, you fuck around and find out When you called me from the train, water freezing in your eyes You were happy and I wasn't surprised" Wei Wuxian always figures it out, god just yeah and the chorus about how it feels good to be known and you cant hide from them like you hide from yourself? uuuuh Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng! and "You've never done me wrong Except for that one time that we don't talk about Because it doesn't matter anymore Who won the fight? I don't know, we're not keeping score" I am so evil about them god, And Wei Wuxian's love being tried and just waaaaah im gonna explode

Stay Down - boygenius. Wei Wuxian. When I tel you there's a verse that is so Wei Wuxian and it make's me so damn evil, The song as a whole fits him so well but this verse is just so him especially post sunshot campaign me thinks. " So, would you teach me? I'm the villain, aren't I? Aren't I the one constantly repenting for a difficult mind? Push me down into the water like a sinner Hold me under and I'll never come up again" God try and tell me that it doesn't suit him, go on. I just sdlfhlskxfjlksdfj

Afraid of Heights - boygenius. Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao. Xiyao. Thought this had vibes, friend said that it fits xiyao, I agree. the reverse of risking and not risking just sorta fit. I personally imagine the lyrics being from Lan Xichen's perspective. I think the last two verses in particular really hit but its really the last one that make's make think of them " You called me a crybaby But you're the one who got teary Telling me what you believe How we're stuck in entropy How it hurts to hope Oh, it hurts to hope for more Oh, it hurts to hope the future Will be better than before"

[compacflt]

this is so random but i can’t stop thinking about your use of music…like Cactus Tree playing while ice and carole are talking and the fic ending with those lines from Summer, Highland Falls??? my compliments to the chef because YOU GET IT!!! it IS either sadness or euphoria!!! our reason DOES co-exist with our insanity!!! UGH!!!

see this is so embarrassing bc my first edit to that fic was axing the “summer highland falls” epigraph 😭 however it’s getting replaced by lyrics from a song that is imo even more pertinent, which is “seabird” (1977) i would recommend innovations’ version of it

it pains me so bad that I can’t link my Spotify here for obvious reasons but my playlist for this series is verging on 11 hours long and i could talk about every song on it for days. some other extremely relevant songs (based on lyrics not vibes) are the following if you’re interested: “august (acoustic)” by flipturn (for obvious reasons) / “ends of the earth” by lord huron (about ice’s ambition, + the line ‘just ‘cause i’m ready to die for you baby / doesn’t mean i’m ready to stay’) / “good guy” by julia jacklin (basically the soundtrack to icemav’s Venice excursion) / “something big” by burt bacharach (literally my #1 tom kazansky song, you pick whether the ‘something big’ is mav or that fourth star) / “kids” by busty and the bass (about bradley and parental responsibility) / “cold hearted” by zac brown band (im not a country fan i swear but god this one hits like a sucker punch. mav-centric desire for revenge) / “last time” by adam melchor (“every time you go I’m scared it’s gonna be the last time”) / “overs” by simon & garfunkel (the entirety of the airplane one-shot was written according to this song) / “aeroplane” by greer (just-before-the-mission vibes)

re: cactus tree—obv ice is the sailor out searching “in a decade full of dreams,” and peep the line “he has kissed her with his freedom…” but also it’s a song about a woman who “only means to please” the men her life revolves around, “and her heart is full and hollow…” It’s mostly a song about carole.

my favoritest piece of diegetic music in the fic is when ice & mav are driving home listening to the rolling stones’ “beast of burden.” i really don’t mean to over-analyze my own fic or suck my own dick too much but it’s one of those moments that shows the difference in honesty between ice’s narration & mav’s— ice just says theyre listening to the stones, mav is honest enough to tell us it’s a song specifically about “making love” and not feeling good enough for your partner. further on in the song (these are the lyrics i should’ve used, i realize) there’s the line: “there’s one thing, baby, / i don’t understand. / you keep on telling me / i ain’t your kind of man.” & that’s kind of the point, isn’t it?

[cassyapper]

I have finished breaking the song down into chunks. this is long I am realizing now that between me having an UNHINGED and INEFFICIENT approach to this and the three minutes of audio that maybe I have given myself a bit of a big project.

In the meantime. Woe, Lord Huron be upon ye! https://youtu.be/3Rdiy9IzATQ https://youtu.be/fRjjw-pRg4Y

https://youtu.be/UbSsLPBw9l8 -Music Anon (lost in his own hubris)

oh felt that music anon i have like two song analyses for jotaor and good god those are so long

as for today's gifts:

yaaay i luv lord huron! or at least i did when i was like 13. i havent listened in a while but these songs rlly remind me of why i did! i love the whimsy and yet melancholy of it

the first one. ohhh i luv that guitar. and the name...world ender...man...

once again it gives me dio and jotaro similarities/differences vibes which i LUV. like the "they took/i had" lines remind me of jotaro (i had a wife and a beautiful girl/i know im never gonna see them again" ohhhughgu) but the chorus gives me big dio vibes like. ugh just so good. i will be vibing to this one

the second one. the yawning grave. MAN. what a title. i love how soft and sorrowful this one is...gives me. sigh. once again jotaro vibes but by nature of it, also joseph. particularly i can see both of them in part 4-onwards singing this about their younger selves, and musing about fate...aough

and last but not least. frozen pines. LUUUUV how the last song transitioned into this one i LUV that shit

as for the content, BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG JOLYNE VIBES. wondering about jotaro and her mom, "i know you're still alive/but i wonder where you are/i call your name into the dark," being in the prison "all alone on the mountain side/and im huddled in the wind" and "cause i know i don't wanna stay here forever/it's time to be moving on" OUGHGHG JOLYNE FUCK, accepting her fate even though she has no fucking part in it "i am ready to follow you even though i don't know where" AND MOURNING HER FRIENDS "I DON'T WANNA BE THE ONLY ONE LIVING/WHEN ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GONE" FUCK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THAT'S JOLYNE CUJOH FUCK. "there's another life beyond the line" JUST KILL ME this is going to my jolyne playlist immediately

[bombshelllblonde]

[cowboydisaster]

My top ten Lord Huron songs and why:

I know what you're thinking: Bea, nobody asked for this!! you are correct 😌 but I can't stop listening to music 24/7, and this band lives rent-free in my head. I genuinely cannot get their lyrics out of my mind. Anyway, please feel free to go in my inbox to ask or tell me more about Lord Huron cause I'm obsessed!

10. She Lit a Fire

favorite lines: "I'll search the world until there's no place left to go And if she leaves it, I will follow" and "When last I saw her she was dancing all alone"

why: I love how upbeat this song is and I love the lyrics, it's so romantic

9. The Ghost on the Shore

favorite line: "Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it"

why: this song is just really beautiful, I find it very calming when it's not making me cry lol.

8. I Lied

favorite lines: "I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you, but it died" and "Told you I could never live without your love, but I lied."

why: I love love love the storyline to this song, and the back and forth. It's such a bittersweet ending to a love story.

7. When the Night is Over

favorite lines: "I feel the weather change, I hear the river say your name" and "Am I lost inside my mind? There's an emerald in the sky"

why: I used to listen to this song every day when I was driving to work and it's become such a habit that I'm obsessed with it now. also it's one of the only songs I've listened to from this album.

6. Love Like Ghosts

favorite line: "All the spirits that I know I saw, do you see no ghosts in me at all?" or "Haunted spirits that I know I saw, do they see no ghosts in me at all?"

!!they are listed as different on multiple lyric sites so idk!!

why: this is one of the first Lord Huron songs I ever heard, so there's some nostalgia here. Also love what's going on between "Love like Ghosts" and "Meet Me in the Woods"

5. Meet Me in the City

favorite line: "Am I not the one you're dreaming of, my angel?"

why: this song makes me want to have a sneaky link in the city, it's dangerous for my mania 💀It's so so good, I love the slower, seductive vibe to it.

4. Mine Forever

favorite lines: "I'm much too young to die So long, good luck, goodbye" and "We will always be together In my mind, you're mine forever"

why: I love the story that goes with this song and it's SO good. I can't explain it because I don't know anything about music. is it the melody?? The chorus?? idk it's great.

3. What Do it Mean?

favorite lines: "Gonna fly through my life 'til ai crash into the ending" and "What does it mean if it all means nothing?"

why: I listen to this song when im having existential crises, which is far too often for my own good! but! it's a great song nontheless.

2. Setting Sun

favorite lines: "I'm fond a' living but I woulda given it all for the girl I love" and "Oh, well is he ready to die for you baby? Now that you know I was."

1. Lullaby

favorite lines: "Where have you been darling, What have you done?" and "You were out finding trouble again There's a fire in your eyes, and there's blood on your hands"

why: I absolutely love this song. It's the first Lord Huron song I was ever introduced to and I love everything about it. The lyrics are so beautiful UGH. I named my Arthur X reader fic after this song, and made it a quote on my pinned post. I cry almost every time I listen to it and I don't even know why, it just makes me emotional.

[alliynl]

This Choi Seungcheol AU is honestly one of the best I’ve read—it’s in my top 10 for sure. The love in this story is just so raw and bittersweet, but it feels so real. Every line hits so deep, like I can’t stop thinking about it. The way he loves her, the things he’s willing to do just for her, even if it means burning the whole world… ugh, it’s everything.

That one line, “You are the choice that I made and the path that I chose. Both I never regretted, not even once, not even at all,” broke me. And then the part where it says, “After everything, there was still an after you. But here it was yet you are still in it. Not as a person but as the wind, the sun, and the stars…” I can’t even explain how much it hurts but in the best way possible.

I cried so hard at the ending. They didn’t get their happy ending, but their love still stayed. It’s just so good, I swear it’s something I’ll remember for a long time.
