A pain so constant and sharp
Like an empty sound from a harp
A nostalgia so deep it haunts me
An endless yearning you'll never see
As I reap the sorrows, I have grown
I recall the day I was left alone
A solitary moment filled with a void
A joyful melancholy, I can't avoid
The silence of past happiness
Prolongs this lushly emptiness
The shades of hope so colourless
A dreadful yearning it embraces
The rain that fell on my face
Took away those tears without a trace
The warmth from you I always seek
To my dying soul, it never reached

A leaf falls upon a calm river
Waking it up from its slumber
The reflection hurries to catch up
With the leaf that floats as it caresses
The calm river with ripples
And it smiled back at her
The trees looked at her as she stood beneath them
The glimmering light of the moon escaped
Through the gaps between the leaves
Casting a dark and soft figure beside her
A distant hooting of a lonely owlet
Echoes through the murky woods
Waiting for its mother to return
In hunger it remains, awake in the dark
A gust of wind blows the leaf
That was once upon the river
It flies until it lands upon the chest
Of the girl who was once beneath the trees
It asks her to seek the lonely owlet
Accompanied by the moonlight and her shadow
She sets off on a journey to save a dying life (A dying life)

Wandering in melancholic seclusion
I rest here, where solitude never fades
I carry your barren heart in my hands
Letting this place heal your wounds
Like the stream washing the rocks
Let it wash your unhealed wounds
Like the lotus that grows in muddy water
Let your spirit grow amidst suffering
Before the dawning of Winter upon you
I bring forth to you my unyielding warmth
Before the dawning of forbidden coldness
I bring forth to you my embracing wings

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE
supported by 16 fans who also own “Apart”
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...

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...

"La mort n'existe ni pour les vivants ni pour les morts" écrivait Épicure et ça reste toujours vrai : personne ne peut en faire l'expérience — sauf NONE, formation américaine qui en a fait son leitmotiv. Les membres du groupe sont inconnus et son premier album n'a pas de nom ; même le paysage sur la pochette est vaporeux. Si le DSBM est déjà d'une tristesse funèbre qui serre le cœur, les passages atmosphériques donnent à entendre les âmes en peine de l'autre côté du voile. Un début magistral...

Altäre der Vergänglichkeit
by Wrack
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody.

Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite.

An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product.

Atmospheric Black Metal from the heart of Siberia. Grima is a band that paints one hell of a picture with their music. Intense shrieking vocals echo behind such awesome instrumentals. Leaves you feeling the bitter cold winds of a desolate snowscape.
