[Part 1... 2/5] So, their last album, The Battle at Garden's Gate, was released as I was listening to the Saylor Series as a new coiner in early 2021. Pretty quickly, I began to notice similarities between Saylor and the album. “Is it just me or does it sound like @Gretavanfleet has been listening to @Breedlove and the #whatismoney podcast? Checkout the track list and lyrics.” — Tweet, 5/3/21 A couple of days later, as I was listening to the final track of the album, The Weight of Dreams (epic song), something caught my attention... “All across the west we traveled wayward for To find the weight of dreams in gold Heaven sent us here to meet the hallowed shore To claim the wealth that we had sold” I thought wait a minute, Heaven sent them here to do what? They continued… “Gold mines melting men in the sunshine Spoiled wine tastes so sweet we have gone blind” Gold mines? We’ve gone blind?… Are these guys Bitcoiners? "You can still bathe in the river but it ran dry And all of us have turned away” My world turned orange. Could Bitcoin be the key that unlocks Greta Van Fleet?! I flipped back to the track list and played the song titled 'Built By Nations.' “When a man must walk the Devil's road Churning up the earth below He is bound to brothers built by nations With no pride to call his own” Fiat is the "Devils road." Both songs made sense through the lens of Bitcoin. So I hit play on the next song, My Way, Soon. “I've packed my bags and I've got my freedom I've sacked the rules so I don't have to heed them I'll bet on a chance if I've just got one I'll throw out the plans and live with no burden” That made sense through Bitcoin too! Was every song related to Bitcoin?? I continued to ‘Stardust Chords.’ “Prisoners of the king Are promised their freedom for Planting a score Of infantry vines From the bowing earth Uprises the weeds of war Caving the floor A renaissance born, whoa” Whoa. Then I got to ‘Age of Machine’ (Age of The State)… this one solidified things for me… (My interpretations) “Perfect child (Bitcoin personified) Plugged in since the womb (January 3rd, 2009) Prophet of the Dune (The orange planet) In this electric tomb (electric vault… the blockchain) Man has made (Satoshi) An omnipresent force (everywhere and always) Heading on a course For interstellar shores God machine (Fiat, petrodollars, the state, etc) Malfunctioned as it grew And the circuits blew Falling down on you Now you're free Unplug from the source (🟠) No more underscores Open up the doors Feeling [chant] Oh God, the feeling We need some healing We need some healing God knows if you feel defeated You have been cheated You are retreated” Now you're free. Unplug from the source. You have been cheated... Now imagine thousands of fans chanting these lyrics as orange light beams from the stage, and these guys rip guitar solos behind their heads… Oh God, the feeling! One more thing about Age of Machine... The band LITERALLY TAKES ORANGE PILLS in the music video to free themselves from God Machine. The video is pure Bitcoin vs Fiat/Petrodollars, electric vs oil, freedom vs indoctrination, the destruction of man, and much more. Have a look for yourself... View quoted note → View quoted note → ...
