Flashover
Klaxons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Signals have been noticed out on the drift
Here comes the flashover
From our new neighbour
Here comes the flashover
Behold new colours
The overmind has noticed another shift
Never seen before
Others bring new dawns
Coloured greys are on display
The waiting is no more
Never seen before
Others bring new dawns
Imagination's opening
Inviting us on board
Here comes the flashover
Myriads of silver discs
The overmind has signaled another lift
Dimensions of time have come undone
Now we have become so un-alone
Migration / space / extensions / differences
Information increases becoming what the mystery is
The lyrics to Klaxons' song Flashover describe the excitement and anticipation of witnessing an extraterrestrial spacecraft, specifically a flashing light, and the possibilities that it brings for humanity. The singer mentions "myriads of silver discs," which could be interpreted as multiple unidentified flying objects (UFOs) or a single large craft with multiple reflective surfaces. The signals noticed "out on the drift" may be transmissions or other forms of communication from the craft.
The chorus of the song, "Here comes the flashover, from our new neighbour, behold new colours," suggests a sense of wonder and hopefulness for the future. The flashing light could represent a new dawn, a shift in perspective, or even a new type of technology that may advance humanity's understanding of the universe. The singer also mentions "coloured greys," which could be a nod to the popularized image of extraterrestrial beings as gray-skinned creatures.
The lyrics continue to describe the potential for new knowledge and experiences that come with the discovery of extraterrestrial life. The "overmind" mentioned in the song seems to represent a greater cosmic consciousness that is aware of these shifts and changes in the universe. The final line, "becoming what the mystery is," could refer to humanity's desire to understand the unknown and expand their knowledge of the universe.
Overall, the song's lyrics suggest a sense of optimism and wonder for the possibility of discovering extraterrestrial life and what it could mean for humanity's future.

I was looking for something rough yet melodic but never thought I'd find something as aggressive as this.
Glad I found it.

This album has become one of my all time favourites. It didn't do that well commercially but every track is fantastic.
