Elased This album has a very unique and fascinating concept. With only three songs, it has a playing time of over an hour. Two monumental funeral doom death metal monsters of simple beauty frame an almost ten-minute neoclassical interlude of piano and cello. Absolutely recommended listening!

Kris Faust Gut wrenching death/doom; feels like a slow descent into madness and despair. Cathartic and heavy. Voice samples are a bit distracting at times but it's not a big deal since the music really stands out due to its quality. Also it's got one of the most disturbing cover art I've seen in a while. One of my current top picks of the year!

Scaffold 24:38
Day after day and after day, alighting carefully on the garden of this Reality, the actual reality, trying to cope with the War inside Sitting, withered, dead within, by the window Stolid, with no expression, a blank face, a stone The ways of the Earth. No matter what, no matter how… Gazing through a wall that once became the window Ι built brick by brick, pilling up regrets and words untold This window reflects rain-made rivers on the streets, like veins and arteries of everything And I sit behind it, so tired I cannot taste the rain after all… Blinding, warm, soft, they say… And I, behind it, Falling upon the Wall... Some muted sounds can only pass through it, and I gladly enjoy them, a strange lullaby in strange forms Having myself left My hair, my nails, my mind A small detour in the night It happens only in mind, like a warm memory in the middle of winter A small detour, like a cobweb on the wall A small spider draws schemes and shapes Barely I can walk towards this scaffold Few stairs and I gasp for air My lungs are burning. A duty though However, this view… Serenity, and I am Calm…

Shrouds 37:24
Breathing sorrow, vomiting hate Sulfur, bile, pus, blood, and water The ways of the earth, unbearable and cruel In shame, in irony, for real Breathing is useless and blood is clotting behind my eyes At the other side of the shore, witnessing Nature's mocking… Slitting my throat, getting rid of my vocal cords Ripping my veins out of my wrists eating my flesh. I should extract all the existing Light So, I can portray Loss, any loss I should cease all the existing Sound So, I can speak of Grief, any grief I should compress all the existing Air So, I can portray Death, any death I should throw my own remains away in the most distant grave Without a name, without clean marbles, without symbols of any god, without a sad word against any reason, hidden in my cold hand Who could tell this story of an naeve man who lost his pride? A pile of shrouds on the chair, speak of hope… Clean and firm waiting to cover a wreck… What is left, from the time where, this called life… I stare at my tomb, just a hole In this barren land I wear myself out Empty, hollow, just an open wound In this wasteland black cloths cover mirrors I am tired. I know. I know the truth This hole, soon, I can assure anyone, will pollute the earth. Like the way it should be No hyacinths upon my coffin Nor lilies and oleanders No mourners will soak the soil in tears No white cloth upon my face No drops of wine over my eyes Now pain will go away No loved ones walking slowly behind Now, finally, pain will start Where even sorrow matters no more when even hate becomes my spine Mountains and Oceans as graves, pressing Fear. Expelled from anything pure, hiding ... In my coffin Ι laugh loud, but nothing... Like a noise from above where Earth decayed Concrete water on me, like guilts and regrets Where even sorrow matters no more Mountains and Oceans as graves, pressing Fear Expelled from anything pure, hiding… It’s the End of the Walk…Back in the cage.

about

This album describes the way inner Pressure affects the human mind through images of sepulchral processions, losing the remaining illusions of sanity and the feeling of Loss...any loss...and Death...any Death....
