Post War Years consist of Si Critten, Henry Riggs, Tom O'Hare and Fred McLaren. They are all very nice chaps and in some cases close personal friends. They all enjoy a variety of musical styles and it shows, because they have a diverse range of songs evincing Prince to Battles as influences, unified thematically by all being jaw-droppingly great.
Three-quarters of them currently reside in London where they are slowly and systematically going about destroying the music industry. They have recently supported Lethal Bizzle, MGMT, and Does It Offend You, Yeah? among others.
They played what many fans would describe as their finest gig at wonderful Leamington-based club night La Supercool Discotheque, where huge sub bass made the floor shake and a legion of fans chanted their choruses back at them.
Si, Henry and Tom were previously in an indie band called llease.

Post War Years Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your love feel you everytime.
You are awaked in her eyes,
You'll be alright.
God will find you, hount you down,
She will show you.
Get on my feet, take control of this city.
Will rise it on
You rise it on.
Can't feel the feet better leave this city,
Can't feel my feet better leave this city.
Will rise it on,
will rise it on.
God will find you, hount you down,
She will show you.
You'll be alright.
The lyrics of Post War Years' song God are somewhat abstract and left to interpretation, but they seem to center around the idea of finding comfort and strength in love and the divine. The line "your love feel you everytime" suggests that love is always present and able to provide support and guidance. The following line, "you are awaked in her eyes," depicts the awakening of the singer's spirit and inner self through the lens of their lover's eyes. The chorus repeats the idea of God finding and showing the singer the way, perhaps implying that love and God are one and the same for them.
