Confident with your back to the audience...
Tremolo strings begin with your gesturing wrist.
Start the orchestra slow with an elegant air,
Then a circular sweep crescendoing swell...
Leo Slatkin, Dohnányi, Previn, DePaur.
Your arms are calling out,
They wave like a swarm of sound.
You pull the sound from scores of notes-
You step the stage and take control.
You're conducting Verese in a moment of silence.
Your body directs a pulse of wind.
Von Karajan, Hampton, Menuhin, Levine
Your arms are calling out,
They wave like a swarm of sound.
You pull the sound from scores of notes-
You step the stage and take control.
Those arms are calling out,
They wave like a swarm of sound.
You pull the sound from scores of notes-
You step the stage and take control.
Control.

The Faint sono una band americana di dance-punk e new wave originaria di Omaha, Nebraska. Formatisi nel 1995, il gruppo è noto per la sua musica elettronica energica, influenzata dal post-punk e dalla synthpop degli anni '80. Il loro sound caratteristico combina riff di chitarra taglienti con linee melodiche sintetizzate e testi spesso ironici e sarcastici. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "Agenda Suicide", "The Conductor" e "Salt the Earth". The Faint hanno pubblicato diversi album, tra cui "Blank Wave Arcade" (2001) e "Wet From Birth" (2004), che hanno riscosso un discreto successo di critica e pubblico.
