A song I recorded back in late 2018/early 2019. Deleted for whatever reason. The section of intense vocals toward the end of this song I've used in another song called "Losing It" which I may re-record in the future. So be on the lookout for that familiar ending. Enjoy.

The Art of Letting Go (BHM Remix)


26 fingerprints is a band that was formed in the 2000s with the intention of mixing rock, grunge and nu metal, but in a different way. Until its disbandment in 2005, the band created several songs. Now we are back to re-release our work, and I hope you like Superhero, which was the first song we composed. We will release more soon!

Superhero

A spark in the chaos, a glance in the night
Two particles drifting, colliding in flight
A billion to one, we still found our way
Through the cosmic confusion, you asked me to stay

We defied the odds, we broke the rules
In this world of chance, we're nobody's fools
Even if it's fleeting, I'll take the fall
'Cause finding you feels like beating them all

Time's an equation that none can escape
The longer we hold, the more things break
But I'd take the risk, rewrite every line
Just to know that for now, you are mine

We defied the odds, we broke the rules
In this world of chance, we're nobody's fools
Even if it's fleeting, I'll take the fall
'Cause finding you feels like beating them all

Maybe it breaks
maybe it bends
like a flicker of wonder
that quietly mends

It echoes through silence
then rises, ascends
a moment unmeasured
that somehow transcends

You and I
against the pull of entropy
The odds were wrong
You’re my improbability

My Improbability

I’m Like You
I never know what to say around you. The words feel too big in my mouth or too small for what I’m feeling. Sometimes I think you already understand me without them — maybe that’s why I keep stalling, hanging onto silence like it’s safer.
When I’m near you, it’s like everything else gets quieter. I notice the weight of your hand in mine, the way you lean into me like you trust I’ll catch you. And I would — every time. I’d give you anything, not because I’m trying to prove something, but because you make me want to.
We’ve watched the stars before, but tonight felt different. Your head on my chest, my heartbeat a little too fast — I wanted to ask if you could hear it, if you knew it was for you. I wanted to tell you that you deserve everything. Every song I’ve written. Every wish I’ve made. Every dream I’ve chased just to bring it back to you.
I think I’m like you in ways I can’t explain. In the way I hold things back, in the way I give them away all at once. I’m like you — maybe that’s why this feels so impossible to describe, and why I hope I never have to.

I'M LIKE YOU

Lyrics interpretation, here: https://beatingedge.blogspot.com/2025/08/vacant-stares-interpretation-of-lyrics.html
Here we are with our last track of the month.
Lately, Carl @thebeautifuldark has been working on some important projects to raise awareness about the indiscriminate use of AI in the world of art. This track came from deep conversations between us, exploring themes of identity, authenticity, and the growing trend of music that’s “AI-made” but never truly felt or played.

Vacant Stares is a cryptic, cult-like vision of a digital future, where prompters replace creators, and artistic expression is reduced to hollow commands.
Blank stares. Selfish prayers. Fake songs for simulated feelings.
This track is a warning. A question. A reversed ritual.
It asks you: who are you, when you no longer use your own voice?

The song is divided into two parts:

Beating Edge's part:
It’s gothic, cinematic, full of ritualistic and unsettling imagery. The atmosphere evokes abandoned temples, secret cults, carved symbols… with that sense of existential disorientation like “they’re initiating me into something but I don’t know what.”
It feels like a lucid nightmare or a hallucination induced by an intelligence simulating spirituality.
Carl’s part:
More brutal, direct, anti-establishment. Almost a rap/spoken-word poem loaded with accusations towards those who use AI in a sterile, heartless way. “Selfish prayers / Fake / Unfair” hit like punches in the gut in just four words. It’s the awakening from hypnosis.

Let’s reflect! And use AI as a tool to amplify art, not to replace it!
Love you all!🫶

Lyrics:

(Tom)

Veil of whispers, carved in stone
Guiding hands, but I'm alone
Golden masks and hollow eyes
Chanting words that crystallize

Candles flicker, shadows climb
Marble echoes bend through time
Steps resound in hollow halls
Silent lips behind the walls

And they move like ghosts through the fevered air
With their silver robes and their vacant stares
Do I kneel, do I run, do I play along?
Or is this the place where I belong?

Smoke is rising, threads unwind
Painted symbols twist my mind
Fingers trace the silent vow
No way back, it's over now

And they move like ghosts through the fevered air
With their silver robes and their vacant stares
Do I kneel, do I run, do I play along?
Or is this the place where I belong?

A voice like thunder in my head
Tells me secrets left unsaid
A crimson door, a silver knife
A choice to stay or trade my life

Lights go dim, the world dissolves
A hollow chant, a fate evolves
In the mirror, I can't see
Is that me, or what's left of me?

(Carl - The Beautiful Dark)

Vacant stares
Selfish prayers
Fake
Unfair

Unnatural wear
Expressionless
Ghost digital smile
Simulated pain
You making fake dog pile

Guesses pluggs in
Self matrix is made
Showing young kids
Their artist mind grave

Not on our watch
Sing your own feeling
Talk your reflections
Save children's true meanings

Feeding them new
They'll amplify this
They'll stay plugged out
All now's reminisce

Prompters, have that reckoning
With fake thoughts you feeding

Respect the souls of past inspire
Their spirit will help you transcend the mire

Vacant Stares

Official Music Video

I am a wreck inside and I know you struggle too, if I can't help me how can I try saving you?

Saving You

It's a work that combines the warmth of easy listening with a poetry rich in color and hope. In this work, I retain my trademark '70s sound and writing worthy of a song that's elegant and intense in its simplicity. The guitar, as always the protagonist of the musical spaces, perhaps speaks more than the singing and offers the possibility of dreamlike flights to faraway paradises. In conclusion, a ballad that's a pleasure to listen to, especially while traveling.

BORN UNDER A LUCKY MOON

Third single, zero chill. “Hell No Bro!” explodes with fast riffs, raw vocals, and a middle-of-nowhere punk attitude that refuses to back down.
It’s the sound of saying *no* — to fake friends, fake rules, and every dead-end expectation. Turn it up and scream along.

Hell no bro!!

You said grow up, I said no thanks
I’ll stay right here with the beer and the pranks
You’re talking careers, I’m talking shows
You’re getting old fast, I’m screaming hell no

Hell no bro, I ain’t going your way
I’ll waste my time the punk rock way
Hell no bro, don’t tell me what’s right
I’ll keep screaming into the night

Into the night!!

Break it down, guitars kick in
Crowd jumps high, let the chaos begin

Hell no bro, I ain’t going your way
I’ll waste my time the punk rock way
Hell no bro, don’t tell me what’s right
I’ll keep screaming into the night

Into the night!!

Into the night!!

Hell no bro!!

Hell no bro!!

Forever young!!

Hell No Bro!

A song written for the No Kings march held on October 18, 2025

Lyrics
[verse]
An old vet lays at the overpass.
Gallon of milk, by his head.
P.T.S.D… bites him fast.
While he sleeps on a concrete bed.

Ice! is forming everywhere.
Black, blue and camouflage.
Who they grab, they just don't care.
It's political sabotage.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
This king is fake!  tarnished bronze!
Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
We are America's pawns! America's pawns!


[verse]
Give the rich, more tax cuts.
Keepin' 'em happy is the goal.
You see, cheaters have no guts.
Nor do they have a soul.

When you need a little aid.
Some help up off the floor.
No matter how long you pray.
They always punish the poor.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
This king is fake!  tarnished bronze!
Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!


[verse]
Media spews worthless news.
Lies from corporate owners.
Pushing right-wing views.
Plus those of crooked donors.

They love their guns, it's crystal clear
While our kids get shot and bleed.
Losing power is their only fear.
Their DNA drips with greed.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
[background chanted] No Kings!

This king is fake! tarnished bronze!
[background chanted] No Kings!

Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
[background chanted] No Kings!

We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!


[solo: guitar]


[ chorus ]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
[background yelled] No Kings!

This king is fake! tarnished bronze!
[background yelled] No Kings!

Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
[background yelled] No Kings!

We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!

[all yell] No Kings!

America's Pawns (No Kings)

Underground Railroad (2025) 

A whisper becomes a weapon. A breath becomes a promise.

This song is a sonic patchwork of resistance, stitching together the threads of a modern human crisis with the ancient rhythms of this land. Imagine the determined pulse of Powwow Drums meeting the defiant groove of Latin Rock, while the cry of a Native American Flute echoes over driving Folk-Rock guitars.

It's the sound of communities operating in shadows, building a new "Underground Railroad" not with physical tracks, but with coded messages, hidden rooms, and unbreakable solidarity. It's a duet between fear and courage, sung in whispers and shouted in anthemic choruses.

They can build machines of fear, but they cannot control the ghosts within them. We are here. We are together. And we disappear.

Genre: Folk Rock, Anthem Rock, Latin Rock, Protest Song

Underground Railroad (2025)

Ein Flüstern wird zur Waffe. Ein Atemzug wird zum Versprechen.

Dieser Song ist ein klanglicher Flickenteppich des Widerstands. Er verbindet die Fäden einer modernen humanitären Krise mit den uralten Rhythmen dieses Landes. Stell dir den entschlossenen Puls von Powwow-Trommeln vor, der auf den trotzigen Groove von Latin Rock trifft, während der Ruf einer Native American Flute über treibenden Folk-Rock-Gitarren widerhallt.

Es ist der Sound von Gemeinschaften, die im Verborgenen agieren und eine neue "Underground Railroad" bauen – nicht aus Schienen, sondern aus codierten Nachrichten, versteckten Zimmern und unzerbrechlicher Solidarität. Es ist ein Duett zwischen Angst und Mut, geflüstert in Versen und herausgeschrieen in hymnischen Chorälen.

Sie mögen Maschinen der Angst bauen, aber sie können nicht die Geister in ihnen kontrollieren. Wir sind hier. Wir sind zusammen. Und wir verschwinden.

The Stifling Nothing

Nobody Knows

Ron Snyder sent Austin Grey some music (which happened to be for the verses) for him to come up with some lyrics and a melody. Austin came up with the lyrics, melody, bridges and repackaged it into this demo recording. He has a lot of soul in his voice.
