lyrics
I had been taught to speak
The language of butterflies
I have been used to think
That we all could have wings
Who said we could not have wings?
So give me the illusion
Then give me frustation, give me...
Promised light
For all of us denied
Mocks at this gray little being
Promised light
The prize for all those blind
Tamed souls who still believe
When disappointment kills hope
And hunger makes us forget
Forget that once we wanted to be free
Now the fountain of wishes
Belongs to me just to steal the coins and run...
Run away!
The flowing of a thousand
Dead forgotten dreams
Caged into the sleepy trance
Of the trip back home
Where am I?
Am I here today?
Yesterday?
Or ten years ago?
That’s how I’m still piercing the guts
The deep and complex anatomy
Of the huge grey beast
We are all slaves of ...
The language of butterflies
I have been used to think
That we all could have wings
Who said we could not have wings?
So give me the illusion
Then give me frustation, give me...
Promised light
For all of us denied
Mocks at this gray little being
Promised light
The prize for all those blind
Tamed souls who still believe
When disappointment kills hope
And hunger makes us forget
Forget that once we wanted to be free
Now the fountain of wishes
Belongs to me just to steal the coins and run...
Run away!
The flowing of a thousand
Dead forgotten dreams
Caged into the sleepy trance
Of the trip back home
Where am I?
Am I here today?
Yesterday?
Or ten years ago?
That’s how I’m still piercing the guts
The deep and complex anatomy
Of the huge grey beast
We are all slaves of ...

I like it because it bears all the familiar trademarks of the band, because I hold Saturnus in great esteem, because there are no two singers like him and because, like anyone else. they keep writing those beautiful, tranquil, colourful songs in which I let me drift with delight.

A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue.

Weightless at Dawn
by Truthseekersupported by 4 fans who also own “Promised Light”
Truthseeker sert-il à Brendan James Hayter et Alex Fewell, deux artistes versés dans le death metal, d'excursion éphémère hors du sentier ? Je pose cette question parce que ce projet n'a eu le droit qu'à deux sorties : Weightless at Dawn que nous avons ici et Blue Oblivion sorti la même année — et depuis, rien. C'est bien dommage au vu de toutes les qualités réunies dans ce petit E.P. : bien que taillées dans un post-rock assez lent à tendances doom metal, c'est d'une légèreté exceptionnelle !
