Down At The Bar

from NIGREDO by Bronze Chariot

/
  • DVD + Digital Album

    WHEN WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WERE TO BE EVICTED, AND THE CHURCH WAS TO BE TURNED INTO APARTMENTS, THE QUESTION ON OUR MINDS WAS “HOW DO WE SEND IT OFF?” QUICKLY, THE PLAN WAS HATCHED TO MAKE A FILM, DOCUMENTING THE SPACE, AND THE BANDS IT HELPED FORM. WE HAD LESS THAN THREE WEEKS. SWORDS RE-FORMED FOR THE OCCASION, AND BRONZE CHARIOT CAME BACK FROM THE BRINK OF BREAKING UP. UNFORTUNATELY, AT SUCH SHO...RT NOTICE, MANY GREAT BANDS WERE UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE. A CALL WAS PUT OUT TO OUR FRIENDS WITH THE SKILLS AND EQUIPMENT TO PULL IT ALL OFF. THE RESPONSE WAS FAR GREATER THAN WE COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED.

    EACH BAND PLAYED WITH CONVICTION AND SINCERITY, KNOWING IT WAS THEIR FINAL TIME ON THE HALLOWED STAGE. WHEN THE LAST NOTE WAS STRUCK AND THE FINAL FRAME CAPTURED, WE ASSEMBLED OUTSIDE TO TAKE A PHOTO ON THE STREET TO COMMEMORATE WHAT WE HAD JUST ACCOMPLISHED.

    ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED CONTINUED TO GENEROUSLY DONATE THEIR TIME AND EXPERTISE OVER THE FOLLOWING WEEKS. SOME WORKED TIRELESSLY TO COMPILE AND EDIT THE EXTENSIVE FOOTAGE AND PHOTOGRAPHS. OTHERS MIXED AND MASTERED THE AUDIO RECORDINGS, DESIGNED THE ARTWORK AND WROTE THIS PASSAGE.

    NOBODY GOT PAID, AND NOBODY ASKED TO BE. WE ALL HAD ONE GOAL: TO COMMEMORATE THE GREAT TIMES WE HAD, AND EVERYTHING WE ACHIEVED WITHIN THE GREAT STONE WALLS.

    WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THE FILM.

lyrics

The well is three deep far from dry
I fought the tough five o’clock war
To find a friend amongst strangers
They’ll be here to the very end
To the very end
There is the easy way down at the bar

And time swirls it swills around
Looking for answers in empty glasses
So put another one back
It’s a bloody wonder we’re still standing
we’re still standing
There is the hard way down at the bar

Down down down down....
Ill do my very best just give me one more chance.
Ill do my very best
Down at the bar
