inside the mind of a wannabe rock-star, angsty teenage girl with an over-reactive imagination.

I am the ocean, I am the sea, there is a world inside of me

Before I write anything, I would like to just say that "Crucify Me" by Bring Me The Horizon, despite the kinda creepy title is an absolutely amazing song. I'm not saying this because I'm a mass fan of the band, but from a musical point of view, this song goes beyond your typical screamo. It's not just some crack-addicted rockstar screaming his lungs out, backed up by some kick-ass guitar and hardcore drumming. Nuh-uh, this some pushes the limits and experiments with more than just new guitar riffs. Amongst all the screaming, there's a choir- yes you read correctly- a choir. Singing over and over "There is a hell, believe me I've seen it. There is a heaven believe me I've seen it"--the name of the album this song is off, this choir fits in perfectly with the somewhat religious air of the song. Don't worry, Bring Me The Horizon is anything but religious.

"Crucify Me" Is not your average screamo song.

After you listen to "Crucify Me" I'd listen to "Rawwrrr" by the same band. There's a hell of a difference between the two songs, which I believe are both pretty good. Musically though, "Crucify Me" is much more advances than one of Bring Me The Horizon's early singles "Rawwrr". It awesome to see how far this band has come, experimenting with new media.

Now, the point of this post? I'm actually not even sure.
