Hail The Sun formed with four friends who have been playing together for almost a decade. The sound they formed has a seductive touch, that invites ones ears to come along. Each band member brings their own style to the party, which forms a chemistry that is much more than a compound. Influences include only life, and modern mishaps and rendezvous. Musically and lyrically these guys go at it more than rabbits, more and more defining a unique sound. As the globe keeps turning, the sun keeps shining, and they keep hailing, harder than ice.

Devastate and Recalibrate
Hail the Sun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Often I need that to grow.
Every foreign rendezvous I fear is the last.
I'm aware the day may come, I'm left in the past.
Angel, all I ask is, that you make it hurt real bad.
Say it so it stings deep, so I'll know you won't come back.
Second guess my every action when I've lost it.
Then I'd have to take the pictures of you off my desk.
And I'll probably be to blame, every promise that we made will be voided.
Any trek across the sea, my thoughts are of you.
All our time in Battersea, I'll think of that too
Listen, you will have to take away all of my hope.
Say it like you mean it, and I'll find a way to cope.
Talks up on your terrace nurture me.
Talks about the odds of our encounter.
Years before we had met, I had dreamt of you.
Now we're face to face.
Beautiful I need you to know that I'm scared that you'll no longer stay.
Second guess my every action when I've lost it.
Then I'd have to take the pictures of you off my desk.
And I'll probably be to blame, every promise that we made will be voided.

The second verse speaks to the depth of the singer's emotions and love for their partner. Thoughts of their partner come to mind during every foreign rendezvous and touch of the sea. They cherish their time spent with their partner, and do not want to forget their memories shared. Talks on the terrace serve as a source of comfort for the singer and reaffirm their love. The singer's vulnerability is further expressed as they beg the partner to stay, revealing their fear of losing them and messing everything up.
Overall, "Devastate and Recalibrate" is a poignant and relatable exploration of the universal human experience of love and loss. It expresses the pain and fear of vulnerability while also acknowledging the need for growth and healing that can come through pain.

When he says, βAll I request is you hurt me your best so I grow, more often I need that to grow,β... I felt that shit in my soul. Been loving these mature albums theyβve been putting out and canβt wait for this one!

I love this band so much. Literally the only reason YouTube recommended me this was because I listened to Glass half empty daily.
