lyrics

I was wandering in the space of time,
Dizziness offering itself to my soul,
And drowning its mind into shadows, in mourning for a lost being.
I was wandering in the space of time.

My visions becoming pale.
Its light slightly persisted as an unceasing grief.
But I had to pass through this wall of memories,
Haunted by a harmful and out of control madness.

Passed times and wilted skin,
Unconsciousness in the pure state.
I questioned my soul to reach the defeatist conclusion:
Nothing's waiting, everything's overtaking, including escaped dreams.

I leave myself to hide the truth on the defeat of mind.
The lie.
Cure against instinct.
The night, with its hallucinated nightmares, reveals the pure nature.

But it must be accepted, as disastrous as it is,
When finally, the loss of a loved being leads to the failure of a played character,
Disguising himself and hoping to reach bliss and rest, through a game piteously played.

I wander now in the space of time, which is still running away.
The shameless selfishness of someones reverberates through out the others.
The worst thing being still leaving one’strue self.
The worst remaining at Ours.

Defeat.

TRIUMVIRATE

supported by 9 fans who also own “Facing defeat”

Each track brings about its own mix of sludgy post-hardcore and more laid back rock. Will need a couple more spins to explore it better. Alice M.

The Idea of North

supported by 9 fans who also own “Facing defeat”

The Idea of North sounds like the nightmare of everyone's death doom vision into hell. Kick back and feel the pressure of your ears being crushed. Absolutely fantastic album!! Darknight

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE

supported by 9 fans who also own “Facing defeat”

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... Jordan Vauvert
