  • ‘Skulls’ was the first track taken from the album 'The Inevitable End', a song that comes with an invitation and a stark warning, set amongst squelchy bass lines and filtered synths.
    The video is made by Röyksopp and long time collaborator Norwegian director Stian Andersen.

    If you wanna ride with us tonight…
    If you wanna ride with us tonight…
    We will be the hands that lift you up
    and we will be the hands that hold you high…
    We will make you say our name forever,

    If you wanna ride…
    Skulls!
    If you wanna ride with us tonight…
    If you wanna ride with us tonight…
    We will be the love you’ve always wanted,
    we will be the fire in your blood…
    We will be the vice of your desire,
    we will be salvation in the flood…
    We will be the arms that lift you up
    and we will be the hand that strike you down…
    We will make you scream our name forever,
    we will make you go another round…

    Wow, I heard this at a club and have been in love with it ever since. The video is great, it tells a story which is wonderful and I also feel a personal connection to it. Back in the day I use to roll with satanists and we would do similar things, it totally captured a lot of the atmosphere, ambiance and attitude of those gatherings. In a way it brought back memories and pleasant ones at that. It was dark and beautiful like the song itself. It's funny but as time goes on and I get more exposure to royskopps music I feel that more of those songs become anthems in a way for me. Hell, I got married and lived my first day as a married man listening to "monument" in a city I love, thinking on the appropriateness of it all, while I did. Thanks for the great vid and song :).

After some time you feel and see Thing's that Either Frighten You or give You Inner Peace? To be looking up at the stars in the wood's saying out loud "Diana" at Midnight looking at a full Moon is Complete Bliss, to be part of It All!!! :)THx

  • @JacobHartnett
    @JacobHartnett Před 9 lety +11

    What does this mean?"With The Inevitable End we’ve moved into a darker subject matter, with emphasis on the lyrical content. This candid approach feels very both personal, sincere and conclusive.
    With this album it became clear we wanted to make an album in a classical sense even if it’s the last one we make.
    We feel like this is a goodbye to the traditional album format…
    In our consecutive run of albums, we have been able to say what we want to say and do what we want to do with the LP. We’re not going to stop making music, but the album format as such, this is the last thing from us.
    I think it’s fair to say that Do It Again and The Inevitable End are dwelling on the same themes. This album has a strong lyrical content and I think that’s more evident than on any of our other albums - I guess writing songs and working closely with Robyn has had an effect. Without being too gloomy or dark, there’s been turmoil in our lives. And prior to making Do It Again, Robyn was in a similar space, which is one of the reasons why we’re so compatible.
    We’re always looking to push certain boundaries, but there’s something there that’s been there all the time and that binds it altogether, we’re not keen on repeating ourselves…"

      I thing they want to make more pop songs and be more popular. They are making really awesome electronic music, but sometimes it's not worth doing it. And because pop songs like David Guetta are on top right now they should do it to make more money. Life is hard and I really appreciate their choice
