Artist Spotlight: Room Full of Strangers

“To comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.”  This is what the five piece Florida based band Room Full of Strangers has set out to do through their music and performance. As visceral writers and performers Room Full of Strangers tend to motivate their audience to imagine or consider ideas, or to experience certain moods and imagery as opposed to focusing on music as a sub genre. Room Full of Strangers envelopes you with it’s dark style of sardonic comedy and ability to generate morbid curiosity. The trademark ski mask they wear, is a symbol or iconic image that represents the ugly and dark side of humankind that they often mock and create musical parodies of. Room Full of Strangers doe’s not take life too seriously, this is in order to not be controlled by fear, however they rail against tyranny and oppressive behavior. Their new single “My American Dream” metaphorically defines corporate greed as a womanizer that deceives and lies to it’s date, The United States! For more info and music visit…

MY AMERICAN DREAM

Lyrics

Hello my name is The American Dream and I’ve come to sell you the corporate machine.
I’ll make good love to you and then I’ll ruin your self esteem.

I’ll give you this I’ll give that. I’ll tell you all the things that you want to hear.
I’ll touch your heart, I’ll stroke your soul, I’ll stretch you towards a common common goal, just wait and see.

Me O my, my American, American Dream, Amreican Dream, American Dream 2x

We’re in this together and it’s all the better. We’ll make riches, beyond all measure. A life of leisure, oh it’s my pleasure.

I’ll give you this, I’ll give that. I’ll tell you all the things that you want to hear.
I’ll touch your heart, I’ll stroke your soul, I’ll stretch you towards a common common goal, just wait and see.

Me O my, my American, American Dream, Amreican Dream, American Dream 2x

Don’ t open up your eyes…focus on the greed, don’t open up your eyes focus on the greed

Don’t open up your eyes, focus on the greed. Don’t ever, ever wake from the American dream. I’m sorry that I lied, none of it was true. God bless the red, white and blue.

And my American Dream 2X
And my American, American, American, American, American…..Dream
