9.8 | YEASAYER

Soothsayers, crystal-gazers, and time travelers…YEASAYER have all seen the future. Spilling words of Armageddon, the apocalypse, and the second coming of Christ they speak of man’s impending doom. With countries on the warpath and our decaying world growing inhabitable it is easy to succumb to the voices of these scholars.

YEASAYER also have hypotheses on the future. “2080/Sunrise” documents their visions and ideas on what lies ahead. Discern what you will from the lyrics, but YEASAYER’s songs flow with positive vibes that will make you dance and trumpet. It is optimism. It is joy.

“It’s a new year, I’m glad to be here, it’s a fresh spring, so lets sing. In 2080 I will surely be dead, so don’t look ahead, never look ahead.”
