SPIRITUAL REMISSION

Spiritual Remission by Dark Company, from the album Can of Worms.

SPIRITUAL REMISSION
Spiritual remission
Reprieve for the God-good heart
Spiritual remission
Clean at the bleak day’s start
Swallows making summers
Red sea waves that part

Spiritual remission
Shames the Judas-lie words
Spiritual remission
Truth’s some beady-eyed bird
Fortune tellers failing
To tell what they had heard

Spiritual remission
Compassion still-born inside
Spiritual remission
Lifesaver’s got a rough ride
People making a big noise
As their size they try to hide

Spiritual remission
Political plague of prayers
Spiritual remission
Stock market sinners shared
Rooms within mansions
Dreamcoats we all wear

Fun Facts:

  • This song is in the key of Bm and the tempo is 128 BPM.
  • From what we can remember, which is mostly a blurry haze, the music and arrangement for this song may have been created after a few pipes of particularly good gear.
  • We all fell in love with Jeff’s bassline at once.
  • George’s guitar part was rather vague to start, possibly due to the affects of aforementioned pipery.
  • This arrangement of the song was put together from a number of attmpted takes we found lurking on a cassette.
  • Listening back some years later, it would seem that during rehearsal and writing Dark Company produced a variety of progressively pipe-affected but better known and understood versions, some of which were very different to each other.
