The road on which I stand
Unnoticed and silent I watch the clouds gathering
The wind blows into my face
Mixing tears with water
And I think that it’s better that way
I leave the house at dawn
My heart is empty and aching
Indifferent and free I walk among the rays of waking sun
I touch your hand
And when you watch me leaving
I smile for the first time
Eyes full of hope and
Filled with despair
(I try to) relieve the pain
For which I didn’t care
All strings torn and burnt
All songs dull and sung
And I think that it’s better that way
Steps in the rain
Breath instead of words
The last glance through the dirty window
This is my poetry of parting
That makes me cruel, calm and so beautiful
Relief for both of us but not death
Poetry for both of us and no death
Thoroughly impressive work by this fantastic duo, so think an exotic blend of Dead Can Dance, the Cranes, and The Cocteau Twins. Cirque d'Ess has music that's filled with mystic landscapes of enchanted and sometimes forbidding arenas, interstiched by deep, dark, and foreboding guitar reverb. "Creaky Leaves" is a hair-raising experience, as you don't just hear music, it's a true act of participation. This is the "Rolls Royce" standard, if, you're an independent thinker -- You will "Get It... !!!" The Spinglass Hydra
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021
An epic dark rock record that will make fans of Sisters of Mercy swoon—massive chords and choruses, plus gothic grandeur. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2020
