DART-SKRIMER

Though it was used in the Oliver Stone film "Natural Born Killers" soon after release, Cohen's "The Future" really suits Cormac McCarthy more in certain regards; it echoes the utterly despairing bleakness of "The Road" and the confusing moral breakdown of the "code of the West" in "No Country For Old Men" in particular. Yes, McCarthy has also seen the future and it is murder, a vision which seems to fuel many of his tales. I love the shifting perspective of this Cohen song, and the fact that the backing track sounds like it's just six minutes excerpted from the endless performance of some spectral band at a seedy drinking establishment off a minor U.S. highway in some Lynchy version of "Hotel California.". Is it the future, really? Or is it the past, since the narrator can see it all played out? Or is it the present? It certainly seems so in 2018, when you dwell a bit on the lyrics. I really enjoy that it's all filtered through this sort of Christian prophet viewpoint, a character living in the outer box that is Cohen's own thoughtful Buddhism with its attendant perspective on human suffering and change. This is very dark, apocalyptic stuff, but, as usual, something about Cohen's delivery gives this the very delicate spin of a weary jest. Even as it paints the macabre details.
