I'm just biding my time in this world
motionless, without emotions to spare
this poem has been a long time coming
and in my thoughts only emptiness
as my hand begins to move
the ink smears away
what was meant to be is already forgotten
the walls are closing in and I have nothing
an empty shell contemplating on existence
and the insignificance of it all
whatever the truth in these lies
there is no value in emotions
I rose up from my soft bed
only to fall on this concrete floor
I struggled to get up
only to fall down again
I forgot where I was headed
and I forgot where I came from
I didn't see anything meant for me
and I didn't see anything...
everyone and everything I had to leave behind
for the sake of my own sanity
if only to prolong this pointless existence
I choose to forget
I have only a memory left
a single connection to this universe
how to break these chains
and transcend above this pestilence
however torn I were to become
with you leaving before me
I would still see a glimmer of hope
emptiness has always been there for me
there I could see a sign of life
here but a drop of reality
is it better to carry death
or the burdens of existence
tragedy strikes at the hearts of the frail
and the strong-willed just walk by
coldness strikes at the heart of my soul
and the passion is taken over by apathy
fear of whatever the future holds for me
and I'm afraid to take another step
the anger towards the betrayal of my person
and I find my home forever in solitude
despite of it all, I am not ready
to leave those behind who came before
although I try to stand strong and tall
pale as death is my face
tavoittamattomiin hukkuneet
ovat nämä olemattomat tunteet
miksi edes yrittää eteenpäin
kaikki on jätetty taakse
ja taivas valuu mustaa
vuodet putoavat päälleni
paljon on taakkani kantaa
on matka vasta aluillaan

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert

Bloody hell the vocals here are absolutely majestic; supremely dynamic with loads of variance in style while maintaining a visceral brutality. The atmospheric elements are gracefully and artfully intertwined but make no mistake, this is ruthless black metal first and foremost. Band synergy is also stunning and can be felt through my speakers; everything is just so masterfully packaged together. Faith
Joseph Hawker subverts the musical and sociopolitical status quo with a black metal triptych that's as incendiary as it is impressionistic. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 5, 2022
