| 1. No Reason
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Ronny Tyssen & Patrick Savelkoul]
Ever heard my suffer
I wonder why, is this real
What have you done to me
For no reason at all
And I feared
You don't seem
Just gave up
Why...do you care
Everything is lost
All hope is gone

 Музыка с риффами, которые были использованы уже всеми группами дет-направления. Создается ощущение, что на всем альбоме звучит одна и та же композиция, только в разных вариациях. Заметно влияние At the Gates, ранних Dark Tranquillity, Septic Flesh и некоторых других команд.
Стилистика - дет, местами мелодик-дет.
Вокал - от скриминга до гроула, с разными тембрами.
Звук записи мне не понравился - какой-то мутноватый он, что ли.
Вроде как и неплоха команда, но чего-то не хватает - новизны, наверное. В общем, заезженность стиля во всей красе.
Мне, если честно, жаль денег, потраченных на покупку лицензионного диска. Ожидания не оправдались. |

Последнее время меня интересует вопрос: "Во сколько раз групп-клонов больше, чем их оригиналов?". И знакомство с СС в очередной раз воскресило его в мое памяти.
Итак, мы имеем очередной закос под At The Gates (Slaughter of the Soul), причем очень корявый. Первое, что бросается в глаза - это попытка создания депрессивно - суицидальной атмосферы свойственной Гейтам, вот только не хватает СС сил сделать это с помощью гитар, так они решили подключить синтезатор. Итог - отсутствие долгожданной атмосферы и истерическое завывание синтезатора на заднем плане. Также они попытались скопировать трэшевые аранжировки AtG`'95, и ни дета, ни треша приличного не получилось. Мелодии встречаются крайне редко, но и они являются невыразительным чередованием нескольких нот. На достойном уровне разьве что вокал: чередующиеся грол и скрим, иногда накладывающиеся друг на друга, что создает интересный эффект, но и это я уже где-то слышал. Кстати, лирику они тоже содрали у Гейтов.
Этот альбом мне доставил удовольствие лишь тем, что я еще раз убедился в неповторимости Гейтов, больше он ни на что не годится! |

For this is my way of the cross
And I feared for this to happen
You do not seem to care
Just gave up all we had
Don't you bother
Don't you fucking care
Do you care
And still I try to forget
It keeps on running inside my mind
Alone...
2. Forgotten
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Ronny Tyssen & Patrick Savelkoul]
Trying to hide your face on my shoulder
Cannot change the way you feel for me
Don't want to see you cry
When you think of me
I know it's hurting you seeing me like this
You will remember this for the longest time
Don't let these images become a curse
Illusions in words confusing me
Your voice sounds so unreal
Don't tell me you cannot forget
I see future black
Just waiting for my day to come
To be released from agony
What's the use of holding on,
the few more times I'll see the sun
3. Inner Battle
4. Beyond...
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Joep Werkhoven & Patrick Savelkoul]
On your way searching tranquillity
lots of images pass your mind
Most of them are coloured black
They disillusionize your mood
Your once beloved one has left you behind
There is no way back, there is no turning-point
It's like a curse spoken... on you
The end so near
Your diary's last pages filled with blood-red ink
Telling your last destiny
Heaven or hell...
Your death cannot wait any longer
You climbed for her the highest mountains
Filled her life with preciousness
Thinking it would last forever
What a fool you have been
Believing she really cared for you
5. Broken
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Ronny Tyssen & Patrick Savelkoul]
Behind these eyes and their colourful lustre
hides a place of shades and dim
By no winds dark clouds can be driven
My silent grief will never be heard
Come on and walk with me into reality
Dance with me untill my shadow sleeps
Feelings of sadness and betrayal
flowing through my empty veins
It resembles my deepest sorrow
As the mist resembles the rain
Pushed aside and left behind
My memory is slowly fading away
Though thinking of your empty words
haunts me every day, every single day
Your vows are all broken
The echoes I cannot believe
How could you ever forget
and live on with this deceit
All these useless conversations
floating into the darkest night
Same mistakes over and over
Finally I see a different life
Come and walk with me...
6. Oppressed Natives
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Jos Evers & Patrick Savelkoul]
Once a mighty tribe full of pride
one with nature till white man arrived
They came for trade in name of their king
Exchanging slavery and hate
Dying of violence and foreign disease
Defending their holy ground
Their native belief
Exiled from their land
Deprived from their faith
Brave warriors in battle were slain
For centuries condemned to live in reservations
Another example of so-called annihilation
After all those years nothing is changing
Prejudice and death are still here reign
7. Silent Tears
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: R.Tyssen, J.Werkhoven & P.Savelkoul]
His needs controlling his mind
His heart is beating fast
among their anxious eyes
This easy prey's heart is bleeding
Wishing it's just a dream
In this silent moment...
The serpent's desires allayed
They look deep inside as cold as ice
The ink-stained memories forever stay
They look deep inside as cold as ice
And they look deep inside as cold as your eyes
And they look deep inside as cold as ice
One night's crying can't make up for years of denial
But all things will come to an end
Torment and damnation will not last forever
After darkness there will always be light
The angels will expel the demons out of your mind, life, mind
8. Passionate Dance
9. Caught By Deceit
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Ronny Tyssen & Patrick Savelkoul]
A fear to be alone
has driven us apart
In your hollow eyes I sense the ultimate frost
A story never to be told
Caught by deceit
We dance on a river's stream
Although survived a storm of pervading insane words
This stream is flowing to the sea
I haven't trusted my distrust
Now my wariness, it lets me down
No place to go
My fate remains still unknown
A disgrace is banished from my insane mind
Yet my harm, it tends to hate
10. Shadows Of The Past
[Music by: Callenish Circle]
[Lyrics by: Ronny Tyssen & Patrick Savelkoul]
The dawn has reached the sky
What does the darkness try to hide
Shadows overrun the sunlight
Nocturnal violence took it's price
Diabolic evil minds
They rule atrocious bestial crowds
Ideas seem to fade away
as their presence is shown by howls
The dawn has reached the sky
Shadows overrun the sunlight
Confusion, don't let the shadows rule your life
Existence, hold up the sun and humanize
Eyes betray their parlous lies
Their purpose should be known by now
Anxiety for improvement
Trying to neglect their appearance
Forced into seclusion
Secrecy has caused your breakdown
In the darkness you fear for your life
When the shadows appear into your mind
Your dreams seems to turn to dust
The desire you feel deep inside
11. Alone
