Entwined

When we were young, we loved but didn't know it
Wiser now, we love still, but we don't show it
It's a bloody mess this thing that we call life
A rise, a fall, a stumble, a crawl - an eternal strife
When we were young we could love but didn't think of it
Wiser now, dwelling on the past we wish we went for it
It's a hell of a thing to live with what we call regret
The one that got away becomes the one we can't forget
I find it sad that there are dreams we dare not follow,
That we loose ourselves in relations that make us feel so hollow
And I find bitter all these lies we daily need to swallow
So stupid this myriad of rules we blindly follow
So one more time please break your heart with mine
No matter which path you choose, ours will always entwine

Hearken And Remember

Hearken brother, though I might have failed you
An unvarnished truth is always a dreadful ordeal
Inconsequential we all are in the greater scheme of things
But sometimes the Devil has a cruel hand to deal
So do we soldier on or crumble under an emotional tide?
As we are often filled with self doubt and foolish pride
But odious as it is, that's just how it goes
Merciless, the wheel keeps grinding and everybody knows
Life will go out of it's way just to rob you of all the fun
So we might as well take a trip to the moon or set sail for the sun
We stared into the abyss and walked away head high
We faced the Devil and looked him straight in the eye
Do you remember, brother, the time when magic felt all too real?
All but forgotten now as the Devil managed more of the soul to peel
Strange are the paths that are laid before us
And the shadows will often turn a hue deeper
But we did battle with dragons before, you and I
When all is said and done I'm still my brother's keeper
Weak is the flesh and fragile is the mind
Our time on Earth is measured by the world we leave behind

Elder

A tired king wore
A weary brow for a crown
Upon his broken back a heavy cross
That weights him down
His calloused hands but a cradle now
For his wrinkled forehead
Yet still he lingers on while greater men
Lay forgotten and dead
Silent as ever, old age crept up
And as he approached nearer
There was a strange familiarity
In the eyes staring from the mirror
Oh, heavy heart of an old soul
In such a fragile husk
With a misty eye, a heartfelt smile
Awaiting the final dusk

Glacial
08:30
|

Everything is white
Frozen the horizon
It is so cold
A heart chilling
Black abyss
In that icy hold
Deep is the winter
Deep is the snow
Deeper only the hole
At the very bottom
Of that endless sorrow
Lay the remains of your heart and soul
So cold
For so long

The Reaping of Hearts
09:43
|
|||
|
In darkness we are left to dwell
Bound to our own grief
Hand in hand we walk with sorrow
Our misery baffles belief
In that solemn silence
A mere whisper may sound like thunder
A spark to light a fire
A storm that will tear all asunder
So spread your wings and soar little men
I've seen your heads hung too low
You need to reach for the stars once again
For we all reap what we sow
The truth is the hardest to face
It is excuses we are seeking now
To avoid calling this "the end"
When love becomes a fading echo
Of a distant memory
The reaping of hearts is at hand

The Death of Gaia
by OFFICIUM TRISTE
supported by 6 fans who also own “A Fracture In The Human Soul”
An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons.

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good.

What a beautiful, haunting experience all around, always melts me from start to finish. Incredible and deep sound, amazing atmosphere and cohesion, unexpected jazz elements unlike anything I've heard, and don't get me started on the vocals. Really hard to choose a favorite track.
