robco1:  The lyrics are:

Black the sky, weapons fly
Lay them waste for your race

Are you suggesting that the harmonies contain more words than those lyrics?

Question: what are the lyrics for the falsetto harmony, if any? Anyone? Anyone? Deadwing?  {#Think}

I have come across a song called 'Cut Ribbon' that's suppose to be a throw away from the In Absentia recordings.  It's incredible and not hard to believe that PT has songs that don't make the album that any other band would be lucky to come up with.

My Granny is pretty open-minded, but I'm 99% sure this is not her cup of tea. Perhaps I should give you that 1% though?

An Obama drone-delivered bomb just killed 15 people in northern Pakistan.

 

And I ask you:  Are you truly feeling safer?

And Colin is no slouch either. For that matter, the synth work is pretty fantastic too...

Yeah, this is what you get when you put four virtuosos on the stage (five on tour—can't leave John Wesley out, can we)!

I really like the dirty bass line and the backwards but strong drum sound, good, good, good.

Gavin Harrison is a master drummer because he is disciplined and restrained.

Point three is one of my favourite cuts off what is perhaps PT's best effort to date.

Great album. I'm definitely getting a Fripp/Crimson vibe from this tune.
