God Made The World
"God Made the World" is a song by American synthpop act Cold Cave. It was released in 2013 as a single through Heartworm Press — a publishing company and a record label founded by Wesley Eisold of Cold Cave. The release is a part of the series of singles released by Cold Cave in 2013. Alongside the other 2013 singles, it was included in ''Full Cold Moon'' compilation album in 2014. The lyrics of the song were etched on the b-side of the 7" vinyl release. The digital version of the single also featured an instrumental track titled, "Dandelion." Critical reception Harley Brown of Pitchfork labeled the single as "best new track," writing: "“God” is a fitting sermon of love indeed, a tentatively uplifting departure from Eisold’s industrial-strength “Oceans With No End” single. New wave-y guitars act as the sinew holding Eisold’s thin, aching murmurs to a racing beat that nearly runs away from him." ''Fact'' magazine described the song as "an exercise in Factory Rec ...

Pop Music
Pop music is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form during the mid-1950s in the United States and the United Kingdom. The terms ''popular music'' and ''pop music'' are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many disparate styles. During the 1950s and 1960s, pop music encompassed rock and roll and the youth-oriented styles it influenced. ''Rock'' and ''pop'' music remained roughly synonymous until the late 1960s, after which ''pop'' became associated with music that was more commercial, ephemeral, and accessible. Although much of the music that appears on record charts is considered to be pop music, the genre is distinguished from chart music. Identifying factors usually include repeated choruses and hooks, short to medium-length songs written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), and rhythms or tempos that can be easily danced to. Much pop music also borrows elements from other styles ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
