Wooden Veins - Skies

End of Trust

Defy flames of the watchmen
Blazing and breeding the sparks
Under the brightest of moons
Taken away by the dark
Cold resurrections
Now taking their form
Tombs of the temple
The keepers of dust

The end of trust
Four five one, the number to burn
Who do you trust
Independence must be learned

False need of abundance
Poverty-stricken we fail
Languished victims they are
Lack of refuge it entails
Another repitition
The dead ones are born
Womb of the temple
The keepers of dust

The end of trust
Four five one, this paper we burn
Do what you must
Independence will be learned
The end of trust

Solo

The end of trust
Four five one, the number that kills
Do what you must
Independence, an act of will

The thoughts we see, words we guess
The end of our trust

END OF TRUST (2014)

Empire

Cold are the watcher's eyes
Blank without compassion
Severe is the storm that's sown
Sweeping away what's weak

Black lights flicker in the dark
We are the ones forsaken
The impact of the brutal assault
Resonates throughout all our lands

Man-made things with no shape nor shadow
Assail their own womb to annihilate
Let us mourn for never morrow
should dawn upon us

Bless us for the one has come
Pride and act of creation
To undo the impure
Perfect the tainted's doom

Man-made things with no shape nor shadow
Assail their own womb to annihilate
Let us mourn for never morrow
should dawn upon us

We sacrifice freedom for no reason
Foretell our ruin and fade in lies
We are not prepared for the final season
Behold the blackness when all that's living dies

Burn the weak biomass 
Turn the whole world into stone
Make it ours a barren waste
An empire without a throne
Empire

You stare into the abyss of death
The New Empire

Man-made things with no shape nor shadow
Assail their own womb to annihilate
Let us mourn for never morrow
should dawn upon us 
a desolate fate

We sacrifice freedom for no reason
Foretell our ruin and fade in lies
We are not prepared for the final season
Behold the blackness when all that's living dies


Empire (2012)

Dawn of the Deaf

Blunt fabrication, the senses gone
The smart stupidity of squealing rats
To fit constraining frames 
An endless game is on 

Wait and watch
Look and learn
Rise and turn
All the creeps will cry 
But their laws we burn

What, don't you hear
The Dawn of the Deaf 
Triumvirate of fear
Dawn of the Deaf

We breed, all is taken 
Falter, reveal the dead
Stains of the compliant ones
We cut loose and spill thick deep red

Prone to prove
The liar's whore
We greed for more
Smash the screens and feeds
All their gears of war

What, don't you hear
The Dawn of the Deaf 
Triumvirate of fear
Dawn of the Deaf

Yes, you should fear
The Dawn of the Deaf
Nothing we can hear
Dawn of the Deaf

DAWN OF THE DEAF (2014)

WHEN LEADERS FALL

Troops grab their rifles, shout: eager to serve
Fighting the dictator for our cause is just
God, goods and guns, a plan to deceive
Nothing compares to our exported beliefs

Statues, parades of a failed state
Guided, entangled, a bloodpath paved
Torn to pieces of meat, they laugh
Jesus saves but blackened the striped banner waves

We make leaders fall
Our duty, our mission, we fight
Truth to democracy's right
When leaders fall

Bombs first then sending in thousands of men
Comrades dropping lifeless, but the place is cleansed
Torn to pieces of meat
Coalition of will, this new alliance found to kill

We make leaders fall
Our duty, our mission, we fight
God-given democracy's right
Your leader falls
Another puppet on a shard-spiked wall
Stench-proof bags for the bodies and lies

Your people starve
The stage's been set
For when the next leader falls

Alberto Atalah, a Chilean drummer,
began playing drums when he was 14. 

After five years of private lessons on drum kit and snare drum, he began studying classical percussion at the PUC in Chile, where he learned to play xylophone, marimba, percussion sets and classical snare drum, as well as other instruments.

While studying, he stood out for his snare drum skills in particular. Alberto has also taken private lessons from a number of drum teachers over the years.

Alberto’s strengths are rock music, double bass drumming, rudiments, polyrhythms and odd meters.

From 2008 to 2016, Alberto's main musical project was The Outside, a Chilean/German metal band based in Berlin. After two albums and countless shows in Europe and South America the band decided to stop performing, giving all the band members the chance to continue with other musical paths.

	In recent years Alberto recorded and toured with a variety of rock, metal, pop, progressive and latin bands all over Europe (Germany, UK, Austria, Switzerland, Netherlands, Poland, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Norway, Czech Republic, and others), in Russia and at very well-known festivals like Summer Breeze, M'era Luna, Metalfest, Wave-Gotik-Treffen, and others, performing in front of thousands of people.

In 2014, Alberto was invited to participate as a member of the jury in the national part of the German contest "Jugend Musiziert", the most important musical contest for young musicians in Germany.

He’s been living in Berlin since 2005. At the moment he's teaching full time at thePlanetDrum Berlin, an international drum school with over 170 students in Berlin, and touring a lot with different bands as an independent drummer.

Alberto has endorsements with Pearl Drums, Istanbul Mehmet Cymbals and Ahead Armor Cases
