All We Hear Is

bokuto: why do we sleep? i don't see the reason. what if it's addictive and the mattress companies started it to get more money?

kuroo: bro, it's 4am. shut up and sleep

bokuto: that's exactly what they want

kuroo:

lemme talk about how much i love the Winter Soldier theme again.

first: i think its basically what Buckys head sounds like. screaming, metallic sounds. that bit in the beginning - ever been somewhere dead silent and get that loud hum in your ears? it sounds like that to me. its a great way to represent how completely alone and isolated he is. the radio-static with the distorted talking,  maybe its memories being completely distorted to the point he cant tell what they’re saying.

BUT this is the gorgeous part of it:

so, its been theorized that the metallic sounding scream is actually Bucky screaming as he falls from the train, but slowed down and stretched out with heavy filtering.

lemme tell you why thats got to be true. first, how beyond perfect?? its taking something thats *Bucky*, something he did while he was still himself. a very human sound, full of fear and shit. its taking that -just like Bucky- and turning it into something inhuman and metallic.

also, that even though he’s been turned into a cold, calculating killing machine, the machine is still screaming.

when you get your first look at Bucky, when he pulls the goggles off, what do you hear? the scream. you see his face a bit on the rooftop scene, but good enough as to tell its Bucky. but there we get a closeup of his eyes, and its sort of like the last time we saw him and the first since then are being tied together.

and ok, holy shit, i tried listening to it on my headphones, closed my eyes to focus…and had to open them because its just such a fucking terrifying song i got freaked xD

but think about that. you’re not suppose to know its Bucky yet. you’re suppose to be afraid of this dude, and the music seriously adds to that. but, in reality, its not the Winter Soldier thats scary, its what was done to him. the thing thats freaking you out is his terrified screams

now, ok, maybe its not that i could be wrong.

…except im not.

listen, listen! play the song. listen very carefully at the tail end of the first scream. you can hear Steve yell “Bucky!”.

and what is so bleeding brilliant is that, even though its heavily filtered too, its much less filtered than the rest. its the only thing that sounds remotely organic and human in the whole thing. basically, the one thing still human in Buckys mind is Steve.

on that note: does anyone think they know what the static/radio sounding voices are saying? i need fresh ears

anyways here the song xD (the thing im sure is Steve is about 0:25 seconds in. verrry faint gotta turn that bitch up)
