Broken Bells

The Battle at Garden’s Gate

Built By Nations

Cracker - Low

Friction Baby

Desperately Wanting

Oh, paint me over
I’m who they want to see
A living mirror
For all you hide in me

[Chorus]
Hey, so loud when you fake it
Yeah, now you get to take it
Hey, so loud when you fake it now

Oh, read on my face
My name is Used-to-be
My name is Said-too-much
My name’s Dependency

Hey, so loud when you fake it
Yeah, now you get to take it
Hey, there’s no one else left now

When I wake up in your silence
It’s too cold to wear my truth
Stuck in the surface, frozen in attitudes
I’m glad I let you take my breath for proof
No second meaning, I’m just a headline
Oh, Cinderella, they don’t brand like you
Digital poison, perfect poses
Can you break out or will you just break down?

You better slow down
What you long for
It better shine right
So much to die for

Hey, so loud when you fake it
Yeah, now you get to take it
Hey, there’s no one else left now

When I wake up in your silence
Have you ever felt so hollow like this?
It’s all so colorless — model, witness
Filter, actress, oh, just go faceless
Honeysuckle, sweet but violent
She erases every name she kissed
Now she’s fading out in a livestream
I’m glad I gave you all my will to exist

Fall for the dream, echo echo
Swipe through my screen, echo echo
Dress like a threat, overload
Crash till your signal explodes

Hey, so loud when you fake it (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, now you get to take it (hey, hey)
Hey, so loud when you fake it now
Fake it now, fake it now

You want a piece of me?
Well, I’m not streaming free
No, I’m not streaming free
Cut.

Fake it

In three years, Greta Van Fleet went from touring the grimy rock bars of Detroit and Saginaw to headlining shows on five continents with audiences triple their hometown’s population. The band that once attracted crowds of teens to improvised forest concerts, have now sold over one million tickets worldwide. Stadiums in Italy are a far cry from a field strewn with pick-up trucks, framed by the canopy of tall coniferous trees, where they learned to love an audience. Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheater is a world away from the tiny Midwestern bars where they got their start (before they were even of legal drinking age). From Frankenmuth to a tour bus across America, then their first ever flight to Europe, their newest album The Battle at Garden’s Gate is a reflection of their journey into the present. 

Produced by Greg Kurstin and due April 16, 2021, The Battle at Garden’s Gate has an elegance unlike the band’s previous work. So many have been positioned as the future, we’ve forgotten how to recognize the real thing. Expectations may run high, but Greta Van Fleet is indifferent to opinion. The band doesn’t have to say a certain thing or act a certain way to convince anyone of their capacity. All they have to do is play.
