This song has always tripped me out with how it makes you feel by the pulsing of that beat. It's so hard to notice through a phone speaker or any speaker really. Headphones turn this song into a whole experience, as if it isn't a crazy one already without that level of immersion

Used to skip this track quite a bit in the past because of the slowness. Now after a heavy night of acid last night, I'm obsessed. In general I just can't believe people who don't rate this album as CC's best. Absolute masterpiece.

I dreamt of my best friend's mother dying the night before it happened, this past weekend. I obviously haven't told any of the family. No purpose. Violent Dream indeed.
J'aime beaucoup cette chanson. Je ressens un sentiment de mélancolie et de paix à chaque fois que je l'écoute. Ce groupe était quelque chose de spécial pendant mes années de lycée.
This song is what dissociation feels like...its hard to explain but, it is the sounds of what goes through my mind when all the memories and truama comes up, and i go for a walk at 3Am playing this becuase it it what it feels like to tbh, to be stuck in the darkness

Ethan actually created some of the lyrics using syllables taken from throughout the original song. These lyrics read "If I were you, Chrissie I'd rather, this must be the end, be the end." The words "This must be the end" don't actually exist. Ughhhh I love it. Another beautiful use of syllables is toward the last third of "Pale Flesh" where Ethan chops up the words "adolescent fiancé". 💚
a violent dream i had was of me and my boyfriend serving together on the frontlines, gunning down the enemies out of nowhere he gets sniped right in the middle of the forehead and that’s the last i’ll ever see of him no goodbye, no i love you, no nothing that was it when i woke up i immediately went into a major panic because i could feel my whole future crumble within seconds, because he was a big part of my future i just hope it never really happens
sad dream but ofc he can't say goodbye or love you if hes shot to the brain, cause the brain commands every organ or part of your body, even your mouth. but its broke so nothing can do anything.

I've grown tired of people asuming the absolute truth and blindly taking sides. There's no actual evidence to back either Ethan's or Alice's side. Until then, it's legally unclear. Nevertheless, a matter that it's none of our business anyways. Just enjoy the music.

best comment
If you’ve never cried to this song while you’re at your lowest you should try it. Life is a beautiful tragedy.
Feeling depressive thoughts, feeling like your heart's anchored to the bottom of the ocean. A dark unforgiving, cold and unfeeling.
So many memories and flashbacks. It's been already 10 years?
I'm feeling this right now too.
So exceedingly human, with a hint of a spectral aura that guides us to a greater truth

Guanjyn tough one between first and second album ❣ theyre both amazing

im addicted to this band its a nice feeling
Something deep in me just resonates with this music so much...
CRYSTAL CASTLES II, my favourite album from them, and I love the remix so much
This will always be my favourite CC song. Flawless
Anyone else get major emotional release from this song it's like really empowering for me for whatever reason
CC is a band that's staying with me
I saw them live in Birmingham twenty years or so ago. One of the best live gigs I have been to. Alice Glass was brilliant.
The production for this track is so soulfull and ethereal, also melancholic
THIS WAS MY JAM BACK IN 2013
Play them at my funeral please 💙💙💙
No!
This is my favorite CC song. It brings back some deep and dark memories of past dissociated states, and it's just fucking beautiful in its own right.
one of my favorites songs of crystal castles even I can say is the best one AAAAAAAAHHH
I remember listening to this heart beats song 10 years ago 😆
I genuinely forgotten about this song since 2014. Fucking nice, remembered how great the vibe is. Vibe is still great, unmatched like anything else in existence.
cant stop listening this album, especially this song. It almost brings tears to my eyes god mf damn
i read the lyrics and i cry singing them :( my singing voice is very sad and i just cant help but cry i hope chissie is okay
Ahh Nostalgia Just Hit The wind and Flew onto Me Gosh This Track is Good
Perfect song.
This was my jam. Right into Vietnam! So good.
This is my bedtime song c:
All I hear is " violent dreams, make me cry, this must be, be all right
its ok not to be ok hope you guys are doing good
fuck man i hurt so much and this song somehow takes it all away
“Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable”
I'm not very emotional but this and two other songs make me emotional
"Won't you let me, well you know I can drive
Please let me take your car
Won't you please let me take your car"
Two policemen in the car behind
Not on duty but they stopped
And just before the car caught fire
