The band is non-active since 2005, although all members have other projects currently in progress. Guitarist Dylan Donkin has a solo project, and is also a member of the San Francisco quartet The Cons. His brother, Adam, is focusing on producing emerging artists (including Dylan). Andrew Gomez fronts the acoustic rock outfit, The Cons. Jason currently plays bass for Voivod and Rock Star Supernova.
Supposedly, a great factor that caused the break-up of Echobrain was an encounter with copyright issues. Another band by the name of Echo Drain had written a song titled, "Suckerpunch" that was also used by Echobrain.
I Drank You
Echobrain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crumbled away is my precious defense
I have lost all my control
While my senses were dull you went straight to my head
Straight on home asking to sleep in my bed
And I feel closer to god
Some days amount to nothing
Some days are gold in my pocket
So it's ok cause I don't feel the shift
Then I start spinning around
I've got more to give you don't walk away
My resolution will make you stay
Then you'll feel closer to god
Where do I go tomorrow helpless and abused
Look straight through my eyes
The lyrics to Echobrain's song "I Drank You" relate to the experience of losing control after giving in to temptation, specifically in regards to alcohol consumption and sexual desire. The singer reflects on the aftermath of a night of drinking and intimacy, acknowledging that while some days feel insignificant, others are significant and transformative. The line "I feel closer to god" suggests a certain sense of spiritual transcendence, perhaps due to the intensity of the experience or the sense of losing oneself.
The singer also grapples with feelings of helplessness and vulnerability, as well as the fear of being abandoned or rejected. The lines "Where do I go tomorrow helpless and abused / Look straight through my eyes" convey a sense of desperation, as if the singer is pleading for honesty and understanding from their partner. Overall, the song speaks to the complexity and confusion that can arise from indulging in our deepest desires, as well as the potential for transformation and self-discovery in those moments.
