Last Days of Eden

Precious in my eyes
Precious in my eyes
Walk across the heavens
To the Valley of the Kings
There before you is a place
Like none you’ve ever seen
With streets of gold
And temples on high
Standing in the doorway
You wave goodbye
These are the last days of Eden
Falling down
These are the last days of Eden
Falling down
So gather up your sorrows
And put them to the test
For we will never return here
Until they're laid to rest
And tell your children
The story of today
How once you had everything
And gave it all away

Vigil

Another smile, another lie
Her words that leave you high and dry
Cursed with debts you’ll have to pay
While saving for a rainy day
Wondering if there’s a better way
I see you in, you lead me on
Your promises dance on my tongue
Deceiving angel heaven sent
Your wings are dust, your halo’s bent
You say you will, but I know you won’t
I know you won’t
Another scar, another day
I watch the blue skies turn to grey
A vigil held so sweet in time
Acting out scenes of the crime
Left with memories so sublime
Keeping watch as the stars go by
A vigil held across a burning sky

Children Under Clouds
04:26
|
|||
|
We stand on the edge of evermore
Stretching out our arms
To catch whatever falls
With grasping hands and gaping mouths
We seek communion
We seek revenge
And the clouds are coming down again
We see the children under clouds
Again
We speak in tongues, we speak of time
The memory of saints
Who brought us here
And gave us faith
All good children are divine
So raise your hands
And lift your minds
And the clouds are coming down again
We see the children under clouds
Come unto us
The illuminati
See forever
And the clouds are coming down again
We see the children under clouds
And the clouds are coming down again
We are the children under clouds
Again
Rejoice again
Rejoice with us
Rejoice

Chaos
03:34
|
|||
|
Kill the lights and wake the devils in your head
Feed the demons on your diet of regret
Piling dirt upon the floors of discontent
Spit and make it shine
Hear the voices of the dead that you have drowned
Flailing helplessly, you grin and bare your veins
Inject the misery to keep the dogs at bay
Listen to them howl
Watch in wonder as your world goes rushing past
You look for signs of life, you pray to die
Another victim left to rot upon the tracks
And the train keeps coming through
Holding on until you feel it’s safe to breathe
You’re never more wrong, nevermore
The turning tide has brought an old familiar friend
So you’re diving in again
Living at the speed of light can cause you to go blind
Trying to make some sense of all this chaos in your mind
Chaos in your mind

fault line
by October Burns Black
supported by 13 fans who also own “Vigil”
New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough.

The Spell Between
by Caroline Blind
Swirling goth-rock from the big voice behind '90s outfit Sunshine Blind, featuring a who's-who of dark underground denizens.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

I like the subtle way in which the tracks connect to the album cover, making this resting maiden the center point — calm in the midst of storm. (Just my interpretation maybe but the cover gives extra depth to the music... a softer undertone). The image reminds me of ‘Annunciation’ by Dante G. Rossetti used in ‘Adrenaline’ music video. ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ puts me at peace with big disappointments — a bittersweet musical potion.
