(7) Vienna based dreampop duo Anger (2017*) present their debut single “Without You”.
Dreamy guitars, shimmering synths and a driving bass line give Julian Angerer and Nora Pider's music a feeling of belonging. The chemistry of the duo feels at times telepathic, no more so than through their deeply intimate lyrics.“Without You” reignites memories of an 80's ballad, yet with a modern fragility. They blend sheer power and embrace with beautifully harmonized vocals to create something unique.
(There is more to come,) Anger are currently working on their debut EP “Liebe&Wut”.

Survive
Anger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i´ll need to reach for a higher state
of living, survival
no fear and no hunger
so much is spent on weapons to command
while some have all, others loose their land
there are kids out in the streets ,you think it´s fair (?)
those kids, found their own way of surviving
and in some years they´ll be guiding
a new generation of dope, shots and fighting
it´s good to live with power, have command
you´ve got so much yourself, you take a stand
it´s not fair, to see that for one man´s glory
a thousand kids will be dead
´cos their parents lost their jobs
now they live out in the streets
killing each other
and you may be next...!
The lyrics of Anger's song “Survive” depict a society where division and inequality prevail. The singer is aware of the challenges that lie ahead and the need to find a new way. He is searching for a path of hope, a higher state of living, and a universal sense of survival with no fear and no hunger.
The song speaks against the obsession of world leaders who spend vast resources on weapons of mass destruction while failing to address the problems facing their people. Some leaders hold on to power while many lose their land, and others struggle to survive. The artist highlights the indifference of society to the plight of the underprivileged, the homeless, and disadvantaged children. He questions whether society cares about these people since they continue living miserable lives on the streets, begging for food and shelter.
The lyrics suggest that the children find their own path of survival, which is filled with drugs, fights, and cold blood. However, this cycle of violence is likely to continue as these children become adults and are forced to guide the next generation in a similar manner. The song is a reflection of a society that is disconnected, divided, and indifferent to the need for compassion.

9:36 Hand model of the brain created by Dr Dan Siegal
11:23 Mindfulness is paying attention with kindness and curiosity. It creates regulatory fibres between prefrontal cortex and lower regions of brain
12:20 Breath - engages the parasympathetic nervous system which soothes the threat response
12:55 Name it - Naming your emotions puts the breaks on physiological dysregulation. I feel angry. "I feel tension in my shoulders."
13:22 Do It differently- Try feeling compassion. Say "I'm hurting. How can i be kinder to those around me"
13:48 Feel the anger in your body- clench your fists and bare your fangs and growl. Say No.
14:21 Inquire. Your anger is trying to tell you something. With curiosity. ask your anger "What action do I need to take. What do I need to see that Im unwilling to face."
14:49 Easy Way to remember all the above: When you flip your lid, there are 4 fingers of your prefrontal cortex that need to come back online: Breath, Name it, Do it Differently, Inquire

First of all, it's OKAY to be angry, don't ever let anyone tell you "you shouldn't be mad" about something. The main takeaways are that 1) ANGER, like all emotions, is COMMUNICATION - it creates a physiological reaction to tell you something is wrong. If you can acknowledge in your own body what happens, then you're a step closer to getting back in the driver's seat; 2) ANGER IS YOUR ALLY; it doesn't hesitate to tell you that either your boundaries have been crossed or something is wrong/unjust; 3) ANGER CANNOT BE CONTROLLED OR IGNORED! It persists until you do something about the situation that caused it. Emotions occur in your body, YOU are not emotions; think of them as friends coming to visit you, although you may not always appreciate their visitation, they usually have something very important to tell you. One thing this woman failed to mention is that THIS IS NOT EASY, it takes many many times going through these sort of steps (breathing, naming, etc.) before you are able to become friends with your anger rather than resorting to old habits (so have some compassion for yourself, it'll take time). The greatest advice I've been given regards all emotions: allow them in, let yourself feel every part of it, don't judge them or yourself, don't react on them, ask them what is it that's causing the commotion, and trust that deep down you know the answer. If anything you will gain more understanding about yourself. And please remember that if you turn your back on your emotions, you're only turning your back on yourself, which is the greatest mistake you could make.

Totally agree! "Expressing our anger teaches others to respect us, showing them they have crossed an invisible line into a territory—emotional, social, physical, or otherwise—that we are willing to defend. Without the useful feeling of anger, others could easily take advantage of us, insult us, steal our things, disrespect our rights, and generally walk all over us without fear of retribution." (from The Sudist Way)

Until you meet somebody that is almost literally angry at everything and everyone. Cussing you out over the most mundane things and I do mean mundane... Turning on the light because the room is dark in the morning and being yelled at for it. An irrational rage that is like walking on a minefield, only the mines are already going off before you've taken a step.

@BeNice108 Yes, you are right, there is the other extreme--too much anger. I call this "unhealthy anger", whereas the reasonable levels of anger could be called "healthy anger". The Sudist Way talks about this too, and why this affects some people but not others. Cheers. :-)
