Brittany Bindrim – Warplane

Brittany Bindrim sends dark signals into the sky with “Warplane”

Dirty synth pads and scrap­ing indus­tri­al sounds plow through “Warplane.” Even the first drum beat feels like an impact — raw, vibrat­ing, uncom­prom­ising. For me, the dynam­ic between Brittany Bindrim's voice and the instru­ments is like the dif­fer­ence in elev­a­tion between a val­ley and a moun­tain peak: power­ful, rest­less, but nev­er chaot­ic. When she sings, an almost phys­ic­al pres­sure settles over the metal­lic tex­ture. It is this ten­sion that car­ries “Warplane” – a song that sim­ul­tan­eously attracts and decomposes.

Brittany her­self describes it as a mix­ture of Kanga and Nine Inch Nails. I couldn't have put it more aptly myself. You can feel this hybrid energy: syn­thet­ic harsh­ness meets mel­an­chol­ic eleg­ance. Lyrically, “Warplane” sounds like a sar­cast­ic appeal from a burn­ing future – “we got you… you can't break through” – con­trol and decay in an end­less loop. A dark soundtrack for our over­stim­u­lated reality.

Lyrics of "Brittany Bindrim – Warplane"

Hold my hand through unholy lands
Into this dream­like smoke
Undone rewind we’re out of time
Hear the dem­agogues drone on and like

Nah nah nah nah
We got you
You can’t break through
Nah nah nah nah
We want you
Alone, devalued

Hold and wave my relin­quished blade
Under pun­ish­ing sun
Armed they say “we wish no harm”
Hear the war­ri­ors drone on and on like

Nah nah nah nah
We got you
Dull, black and blue
Nah nah nah nah
We want you
Broke and unglued

Those fad­ing songs
Like dis­tant war planes
Those whis­pers in your ear
The angry sons
Go on and on when we’re gone
On and on and on

Nah nah nah nah
We got you
You can’t break through
Nah nah nah nah
We want you
Broke, devalued

Nah nah nah nah
We got you
Dull, black and blue
Nah nah nah nah
We want you
Broke and unglued
