Day 67: Absolom Stole the Hearts of Men

Another quasi-post-rock work with ambient sounds.  Not quite as washy as the last one was, but still heavily influenced by Sigur Ros.  Used the same trick with the bass (overdriven bass sound that has a LFO that makes it pulse... in case you were wondering).  This work features sounds from the Auditory Vortex Vol. 1 refill, as well as Jason McGerr's refill.

Any apparent connection the following lyrics might have to anything religious is purely coincidental.

Lyrics:
He stood at the gates and waited for you.
He nearly was the only one.

This prophet is the only one.

He stood at the gates and listened to you.
You nearly loved the only one.

This prophet is the only one.

When will you listen?
When will you learn?
When will you learn he is the only one?

He bowed at your feet while you held your breath.
This prophet is the only one.
He held your hand while you looked around.
This prophet is the only one.

When will you listen?
When will you learn?
He is the only one.
