lyrics

When a man thinks of throwing himself off a cliff, he pictures himself falling. Everyday you will eat from the fertile land of pain. You’ll drown for sure.
The lips of a fool consume him. Death comes to us all.
We will not be deprived from that right. Just a little while, you’ll be nothing.

Lord I am overwhelmed, like an ox to the slaughter, like a deer leaping into a trap. Doctor, heal yourself.
Come to me all you who are struggling hard and carry heavy loads. What if even death separates me from you. You’ll die for sure.

This Shame Should Not Be Mine
by GGGOLDDD

supported by 17 fans who also own “The Other Side of Death”

Quite certainly one of the bravest records I've heard in recent times, thematically and musically. Look your horror in the eye, only then can it disappear at all. I also recommend the consistent continuation on the EP „PTSD“. s/he knows

Why Aren't You Laughing?
by GGGOLDDD

supported by 10 fans who also own “The Other Side of Death”

Après avoir rajouté deux G et deux D à son nom, Gggolddd en a profité pour ralentir encore un peu le tempo. Bon, ce n'était déjà pas très speed, mais comme vous l'aurez compris : là n'est pas le but. Pour les avoir vus en live il y a peu, il faut se plonger dans une ambiance émotionnelle bien particulière, à la croisée de l'indé et du gothique. Bref, fans de Kreator ou de Veil of maya, passez votre chemin... Poesy Rider

May Our Chambers Be Full
by Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou

supported by 10 fans who also own “The Other Side of Death”

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
