Traitors Amongst Us
08:38
|
|||
|
Single file
One foot in front of the other
We drive on and on and on
Convinced we’ll find glory and riches
We feel the cold to our bones
But we march on and on and on
Determined to win the fight
And make a name for ourselves
But there are traitors amongst us
Blind to his movements
Trust in our fellow kind
Selling his soul to another
No one could see the signs
Fear and power the motivators
Sacrifice all mankind
The glory goes to the victor
Wanting to be on the winning side
But there are traitors amongst us
Traitors amongst us

Course Correct
06:55

We’re setting course
Don’t know if we’ll find our way back
Not sure when or if we’ll be found
We’re running low
Supplies have dwindled down
Survival depends on being found
We’ve veered off course
We’ve taken a wrong turn
We’ve lost our way
And we’re running out of time
Excitement's turn to dread
Despair and hopelessness
When will we take our final breath
Consumed by darkness
We’ve lost all sense of time
The moments blend into one
We’ve veered off course
We’re running out of time

I Will Wait
08:54
|

|
All the stars in the sky
I watch the world go by
As I’ve done a million times before
All the days turn to dark
All the scars that have left a mark
Each time I feel a piece of me slip away
But I will wait for you
And will wait for you
And I will wait for you
And I will wait for you
A thousand memories flood my mind
Replaying scenes in rewind
As I lose my grip I’m fading fast in time
A world I’ve torn apart
Looking for an answer, a sign
That you’re still alive and on your way back home

Summon the Tide
08:56
|

There is a vast emptiness
From the depths of my soul
Nothing seems to quiet the mounting tide
Feel like I’m losing control
And so I summon the tide
To wash it all away and cleanse my soul
Be free of all this agony
Fill this void with death and casualties
I walk alone in life and so in death
Forgotten memories they fade
My mind eclipses all the joy inside
A barren wasteland remains
And so I summon the tide
To wash it all away and cleanse my soul
Be free of all this agony
Fill this void with death and casualties
A force so powerful unleashed to see
It took just moments to bring them to their knees
Devastation overwhelms in time
No hope for all once I strike the blow

Vessel
07:06

Powerless to control
The tide takes me where it wants to go
But I’m alive
Been stranded out here for days
Not sure there was any other way
But I survived
I believe
My body is a vessel
Speaks to me
Keeps me focused
I believe
My body is a vessel
Keeps me safe
Keeps me calm
It was an easy escape
When they descended a ship to take
But I slipped by
As chaos clung to the night
A clear escape without a fight
And I’m alive

Veiled Embrace
06:35
|
|||
|
She spends her days in solitude
Mourning for a sign
For years and years she sits and waits
Wondering what she’ll find
Loneliness consumes her fate
Condemned for all of time
Helplessly accepting
Her veiled embrace
Your soul is hers to take
Helplessly accepting
Her veiled embrace
Your soul is hers to take
Blackened eyes see through you
You raised the dead
Collecting others misery
She gains in strength

What Lies Beneath
06:43
|
|||
|
We tread lightly
Not wanting to disturb its slumber
We know we stand on hallowed ground
We try and not make a sound
We know we’ve walked into a trap
We know we might not make it back
We go deeper
Into the belly of the beast
Miles and miles we tread
Not sure what hell awaits
Awakening the dead
We’re dangling by a thread
What lies beneath
What lies beneath
What lies beneath
What lies beneath
Dragging us down
We’ve made a sacrifice
We enter a world undead
We sense the end is near
Death comes slowly
We’re consumed by dread

As It Burns
06:40
|
|||
|
Never has the wound closed up
Never has the mind erased
The tragedies we’ve witnessed
Over and over for centuries
We build up our war chests
We build up our armies
To unleash all the fury
On innocent people reign death
As it burns
Watch it burn
As it burns
Watch it burn
Money and power
Drive the decisions
To send the common man to die on the rich’s behalf
They hole up in grandeur
They stockpile supplies
Stay safe out of sight while they
Sign the executive strike
We’re doomed to make the same mistakes
No victory for either side
Casualties they add up while draining
All the supplies

Blacken the Sky
by Second Grave
supported by 18 fans who also own “Vessel”
This is no funereal doom filled with songs of anguish. It is doom rooted in hard rock, with gargantuan riffs and soaring, ballsy vocals. There are moments of pure Dio-ness here that raise it above much of the doom genre. The art work, band name, and album title make it seem like it will be a wrist-slitting affair, but instead it is elevating.

What a beautiful, haunting experience all around, always melts me from start to finish. Incredible and deep sound, amazing atmosphere and cohesion, unexpected jazz elements unlike anything I've heard, and don't get me started on the vocals. Really hard to choose a favorite track.
