3) American band led by former Guns N'Roses drummer, Steven Adler
1) Don’t let the band name fool you: ADLER has nothing to do with Germany. Named after the Sochi airport ADLER play indie pop and live in Moscow, which ultimately gives their songs a tinge of longing for the sunshine.
Frontman Verkligen has been involved in various musical projects over the past 15 years, including lo-fi ‘ethiopian children starve while you’re fucking’. He writes lyrics in english, out of plain necessity to fit more meaning into the rock rhythm. Friend and co-founder Antti brings vintage synth sounds and edgy guitar to the adler mix. Finally, Praxis adds precision drumming that ranges from intricate percussion to full-on kick-ass John Bonham.
On February 9, 2006 the trio released their debut album titled Love Airlines. ADLER spent over a year carefully putting down the 11 tracks that sparkle with good tunes, meaty guitars, hammond/farfisa/rhodes splendor and occasional synth weirdness. Love Airlines is diverse and entertaining, from the psychedelic I Am the Wine and post-punkish Former Girlscouts to rockabilly (Outnumber the Living) and the sparse, atmospheric Letter to the Woods.

Waterfall
Adler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They may not be here today, but I've memories of some
After all the pain, these scars still remain
Too many tears throughout the years, who counts them all
Another drop another waterfall
They may be small, but count them all
The hurting will never end, this wounded heart won't last
And time it ain't my friend, and I can't escape the past
After all the pain, these scars still remain
Too many tears throughout the years, who counts them all
Another drop another waterfall
They may be small, but count them all
Another drop another waterfall
I don't wanna fall, don't wanna be so cynical
I don't wanna recall, but I can't forget them all
It's just another drop another waterfall
Too many tears throughout the years, who counts them all
Another drop another waterfall
They may be small, but count them all
Another drop another waterfall
Throughout the years, who counts them all
Another drop another waterfall
They may be small, but count them all
Another drop another waterfall
Oh, whoo
Waterfall
Another waterfall
Oooh whoo whoo
The song "Waterfall" by Adler is a reflective and emotional piece that touches on the issues of scars, pain, and memories. The singer of the song appears to be an individual coming terms with the past and the consequences of their actions. The opening lines of the song acknowledge the scars of the singer's mistakes with the lingering memory of everyone they have hurt in the process. They accept that these people may not be present in their lives anymore, but the memories remain.
The chorus emphasizes the gravity and impact of tears shed over the years. The line "too many tears throughout the years, who counts them all" showcases the sheer number of tears shed that the singer can't even begin to count. Every teardrop is a reminder of the pain they have caused or the pain they have experienced. The "waterfall" metaphor signifies the flow of emotions that the singer can't control, and the repetition of "another drop, another waterfall" reaffirms the cyclical nature of pain and hurt.
The singer also mentions a negative perception of the world and themselves. The lines "I don't wanna fall, don't wanna be so cynical" imply that they have lost faith in people and are constantly struggling to keep from falling into despair. However, they can't forget the pain and, in turn, can't forget the people they have hurt. They must come to terms with these emotions and attempt to move forward.
Overall, "Waterfall" is an emotional and introspective track that recognizes the difficulty of dealing with past hurts and pain. The chorus's repetition reiterates that acknowledging and accepting the hurt is the first step in healing.
