Funeral Fog I've pretty much gotten every 2020 album I've looked forward to or have on pre order. So finding this gem from just 2 years ago is a breath of fresh air. It's so dark & melodic, but beautiful all the same.

Ashlinn Snow This band is never boring to listen to. They can go from energizing and upbeat to melancholic and back in the same song. Keys/atmospherics by Miloš are my favorite part, as always. The vocals are unique and passionate. I love that their music is so keyboard-heavy. Nice-sounding guitars too. I can tell so much work went into this album. Looking forward to many more albums - especially with the beautiful artwork they continue to pair with the music. Favorite track: The Last Piece of Eden.
Onanjath

Onanjath The most underrated prog-death album ever. Please give this a chance. It's worth it! Favorite track: A Way of Mind.

Palingenesis 06:54
when the melody of birdsongs seems like an irritating chaos to the ears when the warmth of sunlight feels like a torturing burning to the skin when you'd rather scrape the smile off of the happy faces all around and you realise that all you have been living was just a play of your mind when you are eager to find something to be blamed for all the feeling that didn't remain the same now you must draw a line for what is gone is gone forever give birth to new life rise from the torn pieces of your former self go wherever you want to do whatever you like to go wherever you want to be whoever you like to be you are a child drawing clouds with chalk on the pavement choose the colours whichever you like to paint your own sky you are never again a victim of the emotional enslavement the taste of freedom will be the only reason for you to cry

that fatal moment when I got mesmerised by an unknown but so familiar scent an intense thrill overwhelmed my body then I saw it - a weak little flower unbelievably perfect growing at the periphery of someone else's garden massive fences, barbed wire are the reminders that for me there is no entry to the prohibited area I used to go home at night, so that I can could come back tomorrow I used to stand by the fence, staring at her - the goddess of my pleasure now I cannot leave the station, being captive of temptation that's unbearable and I imagine, I imagine going closer touching the velvet petals, releasing the seduction drowning to death in the sinful, in the sinful, sinful fragrance a weak little flower, unbelievably perfect growing at the periphery of someone else's garden I must be losing common sense the urge is getting stronger leading to a despairing act piercing my hand through the fence the barbs gash my invading hand injuring the intruder I am bleeding in pain stuck in the barricade of the forbidden land now I cannot leave the station, being captive of temptation that's unbearable and I imagine, I imagine going closer touching the velvet petals, releasing the seduction drowning to death in the sinful, in the sinful, sinful fragrance

once upon a time there was a fulfilled life joy brought laughter and misery caused pain when feelings meant being alive there was a whole world to explore I might have been the main character of a great adventure it was stolen, I was kidnapped the nightmare has begun now I am being overwhelmed by a parasite it took control of my body and my soul foggy clouds covered all that I ever was before blind sailor on a ruined wooden raft fighting for survival with monstrous deadly waves on boundless sea of nonexistence what are the chances of winning this game? inflamed wounds, concealed mind with feelings gone there is nothing left behind just some forsaken meaningless subsistence incompatible with decent human existence I am fading out the last hope flew away I am being eaten up I became the prey my body is giving up just need to accept my fate being mummified inside a corpse with a familiar face blind sailor on a ruined wooden raft fighting for survival with monstrous deadly waves on boundless sea of nonexistence what are the chances of winning this game? my presence is about to be history thus my life was terminated

I've been told that wrongs define our being and being what we are, we're bound to make them countless and even if the path is clear and bright we still get lost in the night our deeds tie us, our minds warn us about mistakes already made the night is falling, for help I'm calling but in the end, I'm all alone mourned even plead, yet still mislead regret is the only thing left I'm here alone, I'm here alone with head above it all, I declare my fall with you in my mind I leave myself behind with head above it all I declare this all as a lesson towards the light I walk the way of the mind and by the time no one is around… with our decided path comes a personal fall things have never been so dull I will forever hope that there is a place where we belong with head above it all, I declare my fall with you in my mind I leave myself behind with head above it all I declare this all as a lesson towards the light I walk the way of the mind

Rain 05:25
still haunted by the ghosts and shadows long forgotten I prey upon the voices of lost, sanity and comfort rain shall diminish it all time has stopped, I feel it now moments of joy are far and gone yet everything is written in stone I won't forget no matter… blinded by the images of blessing I carry on the act and face that no matter what I do, I can't live in the past no matter what I do, this act won't (fucking) last still haunted by the ghosts and shadows long forgotten I prey upon the voices of lost, sanity and comfort rain shall diminish it all words have been set and I want to stand aside realities blending and leading to demise the flesh is weak, mind is even weaker sadness of the moment is growing in me deeper what I'm about to face won’t make me stronger nor help me survive a little bit longer long lost dreams have come back to present themselves as nightmares long lost shadows appear to help me to take my final step still haunted by the ghosts and shadows long forgotten I prey upon the voices of lost, sanity and comfort rain shall diminish it all

look, all the desolation all the things seen, all the lives lived you are here to learn, experience it all this land you’re standing on, these steps you’re making you will take it all with you, embrace it from afar callow fantasies, secret desires looking up, trying to reach the dreams of ambitions flying away, disappearing in the distance with years passing by the naive belief of mindfulness living fully, exploring the potential that was given and sharing the wisdom that was hardly acquired… grains of sand blown away scattered all around, lost in the world in a familiar storm breathe in and let yourself go robust is the wind that will carry you on callow fantasies, secret desires looking up, trying to reach the dreams of ambitions flying away, disappearing in the distance with years passing by

the endless road stretching to the sky the seamless stars bright enough so high what has been done to the only one? a piece of eden is gone… wandering our whole lives searching for the one that hides walking on our own feet far the voices of statues built are a reminder of sin and despair a reminder of a piece of eden the emptiness of pure good and the sadness of evil itself we stood there so long in the middle, gazing to stars... wandering our whole lives searching for the one that hides for what today is worth we destroyed the earth mourning and grieving for death regretting the curse that we fed with hopes born of stars, so high, so far chances reduced to none the last piece of eden is gone

Extirpation 07:35
I thought blood is a bond that cannot be cut I thought trees have roots to resist all disasters I am not wanted, I'm not trusted am I useless? am I worthless? the paradox of childhood closeness transformed into mute distance ignorance looking through me shut the door, lock me out live your selfish life shut the door, lock me out live your sad selfish miserable life shade the window, lock yourself inside your little box full of lies I have tried all the possible and impossible there is no path left I cannot get through am I wanted? am I trusted? I'm not useless, I'm not worthless I know there is no room for me now I know trees can't resist all disasters shut the door, lock me out live your sad selfish miserable life shade the window, lock yourself inside your little box full of lies

In Aeternum 06:49
has it really been so long ago? at last I am breathing freely my hands, my thoughts unbound today should last for eternity swept away I longed for the tranquil breeze and warm touch I conclude for the time being wear your smile ever so pretty it comes and goes tighten the grasp as it slowly entwines you this time you are sure it will fade watching your life getting carried away once more foretold, it will happen and you wonder still, whether the stream will ever cross your feet again swept away I longed for the tranquil breeze and warm touch I conclude for the time being

about

COMMA. How it breaks the sentence, pausing for a short breath. It's that moment on the brink of two ideas - one already belonging to the past, the other not yet formulated. The punctuation of imagination in the daily routine, a more genuine connection with our own feelings and inner experience. A long withdrawal is not without its perils, though: the danger of getting stuck in a world no one else has access to, in an almost autistic, even comatose state. This is the land you wandered into. We invite you to get lost with us. Let us dwell here in this pristine world.
