GRENOUER - Golden Years - Official Music Video
Artist City, Country: Saint Petersburg, Russia
Taken from the album: Grenouer "Blood on the Face" released by Mausoleum Records
Produced by Dualized for dysFUNCTION Productions
Director: Max Poddubny (BL, Star Light, Hustler) for American Pie Production
This is allegory of music industry and show biz rather than actual dealing with a life of a prostitute:
One band out of two in the world pays to play...
Many best-selling artists never make a dime from album sales...
A whole generation of fans is gone...
Musicians are cheated and treated like a prostitute...
Golden years are over...
To be continued...
Song Lyrics:
The golden age of democracy
Carries out atrocities
Common virtues that they choose to preach
Destinations that you fail to reach
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Golden years brought by hurricane
Purple clouds pull you down again
Find the world as never seen before
Got to make the words you can ignore
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Wrong place
Veil of fire
Deep cuts
Keep your mouths shut
Get the message
Get excited
Get the message
Get excited
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Wrong place
Veil of fire
Deep cuts
Keep your mouths shut
Michael Smith, Music Reviews: “Golden Years” - With the thundering of drums Grenouer set to take you on yet another journey through their soul and mind. Nothing cuts worse than seeing a friend in pain, but often out of such pain beautiful music is made. With acoustic guitars ringing a mournful tone unrolls in my mind. Though played to perfection you can almost feel the pain and animosity with each string strummed. The trademark growling bass of Grenouer is subdued this go around however it still punches through with potency keeping the song solid as cinder blocks. Vocals from Ind are sung like a beautiful angel mourning the loss of virtue trying to make sense of all that is going on. Overall the production is like every other Grenouer song, 5 star and beautifully done. While lamenting for a time when artists are properly treated and respected for their talents Grenouer refuse to give up and instead make great music. I would recommend this track to anyone that likes Rock/Hard Rock/ Metal Ballads. The video accompanying this song underlines how many artists feel they are being treated like prostitutes for all their hard work and sacrifice. While the “Golden Years” may be over with artists such as Grenouer still producing great music perhaps a renaissance will arise".
