Antelope – Beliefs (2024)

Hi, guys! For a long time, I didn’t post here any alternative rock / indie rock music. But today I am here with one very beautiful song in that style. Here is the track “Beliefs”, by the alternative rock band Antelope, from Essex, United Kingdom. Let’s check it!

I don’t know why but the overall vibe of the song (especially the verse parts) reminds me of The Police mixed with something from the 2010’s like I Am Giant…which is very nice to me. Almost all modern indie music sounds overcooked and too pop-ish. But this song sounds perfectly balanced to me. It has some catchy hooks but still has that warm rock shade.

The track “Beliefs” stands out with its deep lyrics and catchy melodies, creating a captivating listening experience. The song’s introspective lyrics explore themes of personal growth and self-discovery (I guess). Complemented by a beautiful arrangement that enhances its emotional depth. The pleasant vocal timbre adds a layer of sincerity, making the track feel familiar and deeply resonant.

The thoughtful composition creates a soundscape that is both refreshing and nostalgic. The song’s chorus, with its empowering message of resilience and self-reinvention, is particularly compelling.

As Usual, thank you all very much 🙂 I hope this song will make your day a bit better! Enjoy the music and stand with Ukraine! Peace <3



Lyrics:

I’ve forgotten how to talk about 
The pictures I keep
On display inside my head 
I’ve been stifling the very things
That make me happy 
There’s what I meant and what I said 

I am sorry your philosophy does nothing for me 
Does that mean that I’m so wrong 
Now I look at you with brand new eyes and brand new beliefs 
The boy I was before is gone 

Be strong my friend 
This will all work out in the end
Don’t hold so tight 
The story is yours to rewrite 

Watch you weaponise your own disguise 
As someone caring 
You only care for when I fall 
There’s no compromise or patience in 
The words you’re sharing 
No humanity at all

I know you might 
Confront me 
In the cold light 
Of the country 
And teach me to not think for myself 

But we don’t need
To agree 
I’ll correct you 
In a daydream 
Wipe the slate clean for the sake of our health

Be strong my friend 
This will all work out in the end 
Don’t hold so tight 
The story is yours to rewrite
