David Lynch: Good Day Today

[cacophony]

do we know this is actually UW? doesn't sound a bit like karl's delivery to me.

[BrotherLovesDub]

These lyrics are not exactly uplifting. It's a desperate plea from a scared and fragile person who desperately just wants to have one day that's not complete shit and filled with anxiety and terror. The subject is weak and downtrodden, yet hopeful, in a similar way to the subject of 8 Ball.

[holden]

The announcer and the playlist say new Underworld.

Like i said above, i'm just not hearing Karl through the vocoding. Could be a collaboration. I dunno who Sia is, but aren't they supposed to be on the record?

And Tong's got it already! So, it's done then? Release date, please!

anyone wants it?

also, it reminds me of that oliver huntermann mix of crocodile. not fond of the vocoder but it was a surprise to hear gunshots. kind of a stark difference between scribble, this is more muted and minimal.

I am not convinced this is Underworld, I think Bentley might have got something mixed up or some kind of fake. The vocals, the gunshots? Just not very Underworld.

Right, i agree. "Uplifting" was a bad word choice. I guess on second thought "want a good day today" and "and it's okay" are not exactly akin to "You bring light in" or "makes me feel- feel- happy!"
This is subjective as heck, but 8-Ball has never given me a moment of dread. Yeah, there's a crazy guy with a whiskey sack as a walkie talkie, but that feels like Karl responding with joy to his urban surroundings. Yes, Good Day today sounds like a guy more on edge.


By the way, it HAS been a VERY Good Day Today! Two new Underworld tracks! Is it Christmas already?!

that's a gross misrepresentation of 8ball's lyrics. there's nothing weak and downtrodden about them.

Jason Bentley is a huge Underworld fan. He would not mix it up.

Please post a link. I can't listen to the stream.
