This Is the End

This is the end
Of a tired life
No will to bend
Snuffing out the dimming light
An existence of despair
Aching void I cannot bear
Reaching out for a grasp
Nothing for me to clasp
An existence of despair
Aching void I cannot bear
The tools are at my hand
This will be my final stand
I close my eyes
Take my last breath
I say goodbye
And welcome death
This is the end
Of a tired life
No will to bend
Snuffing out the dimming light

The End of Me

The shadows outside
Have seeped within
These meager walls
So paper thin
Darkness encroaches
Takes hold of my breath
Consumes all my being
I'm living my death
It's cold inside here
This hole in my chest
Shivering frozen
Affection has left
You've turned away
For the last time
Can't ask you to stay
No longer mine
The memory of you
Dims and it fades
The life we would share
A promise betrayed
The shadows outside
Have seeped within
These meager walls
So paper thin
Darkness encroaches
It's all I can see
All I can do now
Is the end of me

Falling Through Black

Now I’m falling
Through the black
Your name, I’m calling
Not hearing a word back
It was never supposed to go this way
We had it all planned out
But when you turned your back that day
The bottom dropped out
Now I’m falling
Through the black
Your name, I’m calling
Not hearing a word back
I lay broken
Upon the frigid floor
My emotions running empty
Drained out of my core
A shell, a husk now remains
Of who I used to be
Everything I wanted
Was just you and me
It was all I ever wanted
More than I’d have ever dreamed
But pain, suffering and sorrow
Killed the serene
Now I’m falling
Through the black
In silent solitude
My mind is wracked
Of all that should have been
And all that never was
A constant downward spin
Into obsidian jaws
Now I’m falling
Through the black
Your name, I’m calling
Not hearing a word back

To the Nether

Haunted
By the memories of you
The only things I ever really knew
You are now but a ghost
Gone away, forever
I can’t live with this pain
So I send myself to the nether
The fading image of you
Spins in my head
Every day, and all night
I’m better off dead
Haunted
By the memories of you
The only things I ever really knew
You are now but a ghost
Gone away, forever
I can’t live with this pain
So I send myself to the nether
The fading image of you
Spins in my head
Every day, and all night
I’m better off dead
Barrel pressed to the temple
Tears well in my eye
No hope for redemption
No chance for a goodbye
My eyes, tightly closed
Breath held in resolve
Squeeze as I sigh
My body falls
(Solo Bullard)
I am now but a ghost
Gone away, forever
Could not live with this pain
So I sent myself to the nether
You left me here
In this wretched place
A world without hope
I cannot face

Awaiting a day that will never come
Darkened my world with an ashen sun
The last light ahead is fading away
Soon to turn black the ages of gray
A kiss of ethereal flame
Chills with ghostly embrace
Howling winds penetrate
Extinguish the embers within
Awaiting a day that will never come
Darkened my world with an ashen sun
The last light ahead is fading away
Soon to turn black the ages of gray
Phantom fire licks at my heart
Both holds me together and tears me apart
Pulling me forward, though I never move
My beautiful marriage to solitude
Awaiting a day that will never come
Darkened my world with an ashen sun
The last light ahead has faded away
Now to leave black my ages of gray
(We wait to the end
It's as it has been
The rain pours on us
Forever)

This album is just 100/100, like so many albums from mgla. How can a band hit the spot so many times? They are incredible. Thank you for accompanying me almost daily these days :)

Je ne peux pas m'empêcher de trouver le tag "depressive black metal" assez drôle dans la liste, parce que CLG J02182-05102 procure au contraire un sentiment de liberté presque euphorique assez exceptionnel dans l'univers du black atmosphérique alors même que le chant glacial reste résolument fidèle au genre. Cet album fait admirer la beauté du cosmos avec des titres très dynamiques, notamment "Infinite Density" que j'aime beaucoup et qui résume totalement l'esprit de cette œuvre : très dense !

Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite.

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...
