Coma

The Poet's Ballet

Singularity

From unfathomable depths, a tremor starts,
A thousand layers it rends and it parts.
No earthly bastion can its darkness confine
Such feral essence, terrible and divine
A chthonic pressure, which threatens to erupt,
Silent duty where angels would give up.
An ancient demon, onto the surface, hurled,
TO CLUTCH THE DAWN AND TO OWN THIS WORLD

CRACKS IN THE CROWN! THE LIES ARE EXPOSED!
FROM UNDERGROUND! A NEW TRUTH IMPOSED!
NO ESCAPE! NO PLACE TO HIDE!
THE OLD WORLD IS BURNING! FROM THE INSIDE!

The gold plated towers, shimmer and gleam,
Irrelevant statues and Ponzi schemes.
Their empty words, their shameful, driving need,
To lie and steal and scheme, and kill and cheat
A primal anger, long suppressed and long bound,
Has cracked the pavement of the park downtown
The masks of order begin to peel away
AND THE DEMON DOTH DEVOUR THE DAY

CRACKS IN THE CROWN! THE LIES ARE EXPOSED!
FROM UNDERGROUND! A NEW TRUTH IMPOSED!
NO ESCAPE! NO PLACE TO HIDE!
THE OLD WORLD IS BURNING! FROM THE INSIDE!
 
The hollow rulers, with their practical deceit, 
Now scramble wildly, sensing their defeat
No gilded cage can shield them from the ire, 
They take their place upon the pyre. 
The ancient hunger, sharp and ever keen, 
Paints red murals of a murder scene. 
The final judgment, by bad choices, cast,
TO CHOKE THE DAWN AND RECLAIM THE PAST

To Clutch The Dawn

In the heart of the village, shadows twist
A boy with drums, eyes wide with innocence
He beats the rhythm of doom, hands small and pale
His smile masks the storm, a façade of purity

A serenade of darkness, composed by a child
His drumbeats herald the end, innocence cloaked in black

The cadence of chaos, the echo of dread
Marching through the night, hearts of despair

Candles flicker in trembling hands, terror reigns
The boy plays on, his tune a dirge of despair
Footsteps echo in haunted halls, whispers of doom
His gaze pierces the soul, a mirror of torment, torment

A serenade of darkness, composed by a child
His drumbeats herald the end, innocence cloaked in black

Pulse of corruption
Pulse of corruption

In the silence of dawn, blood stains the earth
A child's laughter mingles with the cries of the fallen
His rhythm relentless, the pulse of malevolence
Innocence corrupted, a harbinger of death

When the final beat fades, silence engulfs the land
The boy stands alone, his eyes void of light
In the ashes of his symphony, shadows writhe
A diabolic legacy, born from innocence lost, lost

To be released on July 22nd 2016 through Art of Propaganda. 

Art of Propaganda is proud to present the highly anticipated third album of Harakiri for the Sky, III: Trauma. Released in 2014 by Art of Propaganda, Harakiri for the Sky's Aokigahara reaped widespread critical acclaim for its startling synthesis of skyscraping post-rock textures and emotive black metal fury. Breathtaking and torturous in equal measures, the highwater mark that Aokigahara set has somehow been eclipsed by III: Trauma. Immediately, the album kicks off with an 11-minute epic titled "Calling the Rain," and indeed do Harakiri for the Sky summon forces both natural and supernatural. As the record winds through seven more equally scintillating epics, III: Trauma swells and swirls, crests and crushes, effortlessly dancing between genres with nary an ounce of self-consciousness. Not for nothing is the album titled Trauma: the emotional landscapes the band travail scrape both the direst depths and fleetingly blissful extremes of the human psyche.

But, as masterful as the band are at this point, this is not new territory for Harakiri for the Sky; they have been a steady work in progress from the start. Founded in 2011 in Vienna, Austria, the aim of Harakiri for the Sky has always been to create a unique mixture of melancholy and aggression, madness and meaning, and wrapped in alternately manic/mellow songs that bridged black metal and atmospheric post-rock. The band was initially begun as a studio project by erstwhile Bifröst member M. S. joined by vocalist/lyricist J. J., and has recently been expanded to a live lineup. With that lineup secured, Harakiri for the Sky then embarked upon four successful European tours with the likes of A Forest of Stars, Der Weg Einer Freiheit, and Agrypnie among others, encompassing over 20 countries to date. Now prepared to release the masterwork III: Trauma, Harakiri for the Sky will take this volatile-yet-beautiful new concoction on the road for the remainder of 2016: massive sound-walls and the barest of emotions await!
