lyrics

You’ve come with limber frames
To lay beside the boots of your masters…
Your husks with charcoal stains
That they coax with meager rations.
And here, the nourishment of rain
Is the heavens’ greatest show of compassion.

The rains remind you of spirits you’re taught do not exist.
Behind the cascade he beholds you - the man beyond the mist.

You recall your mother’s legends
Of benevolence from an unseen heir;
Yet his whispers drown in this sea of groaning -
They would curtail it from your ears.
And they would turn the wheel of progress
Toward a future without you there.
…That is, unless you refuse to steer.

Lay down your axe!
Throw your barrows to the rats!
Let him rekindle the fire of the mind.
Lay down their walls at the roots of the pines.

The rains remind you that your spirit still exists.
He is never outside you - you are the man beyond the mist.

A Diabolic Thirst
by SPECTRAL WOUND

supported by 6 fans who also own “The Man Beyond the Mist”

Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass). Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit

I listen to a lot of depressive and dark music, and I have to say this album hits hard. Very hard... kowaikage2

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Man Beyond the Mist”

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
