lyrics

The story repeats itself
The sadness fills up my soul
The loneliness follows me
Everything was written down

Everything for being useless
Without mercy for the weak ones

Finding an weird happiness in loneliness
The singular and whimsical pleasure of nostalgia

Downcast, the hours pass

I don’t dare to move an ounce
I don’t feel cold, I feel nothing
Too depressed for that privilege
Too tired to cry again

No more tears, only real sadness
Surrender, resignation
Too dark to see
To dark to walk
Too tired to cry again

No one else by my side but these notes
I am lonely again and I deserve it
The music, melancholy of an inspiration moment
Sadness makes me happy
This slow melody

No more tears, only real sadness
Surrender, resignation
Too dark to see
To dark to walk
Too tired to cry again

Loneliness, sadness, pessimism and self-destruction
Treacherous loneliness
I trick myself to think that I am fine
While something is eating me up, consuming me from the inside
I realise again... again where I am
Between the emptiness and the void
Without achieving anything, without anything achieved
Losing everything
Loneliness,pessimism and self-destruction

It’s a cold night and I can’t remember having smiled
Loneliness, pessimist and self-destruction
Your nights inspire me this grey condition.
Loneliness, pessimist and self-destruction
Your nights inspire me this grey condition.
Loneliness, pessimist and self-destruction
It’s a cold night and I can’t remember having smiled

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert
