Buried deep beneath the lies,
A broken past, hollow cries.
Every promise turned to dust,
Left to drown in shattered trust!

No escape, no salvation...
Torn apart by desolation!

"SHATTERED BY SORROW!" (HEY! HEY!)
"FALLEN TOMORROW!" (HEY! HEY!)
No way back, no redemption,
Chained to the past, no salvation!


Haunted screams inside my mind,
Echoes lost in endless time.
Torn between the pain and rage,
Trapped inside this burning cage!


Through the flames, through the shadows…
Bound in chains, drowning in echoes!


"SHATTERED BY SORROW!" (HEY! HEY!)
"FALLEN TOMORROW!" (HEY! HEY!)
No way back, no redemption,
Chained to the past, no salvation!


"No escape… No salvation…"
"Drown in sorrow… No redemption…"


Shattered By Sorrow

Don't just follow blindly and become a sheeple. Question everything and don't drink the Kool-Aid

Get Onboard

Intimate.  Addictive. This is the darkness you can’t resist.

We’ve been working on this record for almost two years – and now it’s finally here: “Devil” has been born.
But this album is nothing like anything we’ve done before. Dark, cryptic, yet strangely catchy – a sound that mixes our roots with pop culture fragments, hypnotic songwriting, and a touch of madness.

It’s by far our most experimental project, maybe even the most mainstream thing we’ve ever created. And still, it’s undeniably us – raw, uncompromising, layered, like a mirror of the darkness in our time.

This album is more than just music. It’s an invitation:
A dance between desire and downfall, a ritual between shadow and light, a voice pulling you into the unknown.

And here’s the best part: “Devil” is only dropping on SoundCloud. Nowhere else. No streaming platforms, no physical release. Just here.
It’s our little gift to the community that’s been with us all along.

We hope you’ll love it as much as we do.
Because for us, this isn’t just another chapter –
it might just be the best thing we’ve ever done.

Let yourself be tempted. Step inside.

Crown of Serpents

Lyrics:

Your head starts to rock
As it nods in time 
With the rhythm dancing to this rhyme

Your head starts to rock
As it nods in time 
With the rhythm dancing to this rhyme

The beat holds you dear 
Your foot starts to tap
The crowd begins to clap.

Clap. Clap. Clap. 

"That's nice."....

I'll tell you a story about the first slow clap.
The tale is a little gory but it really does slap.
So now behold the glory of the slow clap rap.

"It all began with a kid called Markus"...

(Clap clap clap)

Markus was a simple lad
He scurried about his ways
He was young and tall, well fed 
Living in Ancient Roman days

His family: Middle Class.
The Colosseum: Full of Delights
He could afford to see the mighty fights.

Move sight to the Colosseum
Markus is sight seeing
A normal day, a normal fight
He just popped in for quick Punch 'N Bite

His Seat he's gotten 
Drink he's not forgotten 
Snacks? Check!
Gladiator gets killed by spear to neck.
The Crowd is Bored
Silence has soared.

Not a sound but the cry as the gladiator did die.

Not a sound, and around everyone is looking down with a frown.

Quick Death is lame.
What a shame.

Crowd looks for blame.
The Emperor is Here
He's Expecting a Cheer
The Colosseum is in Silence. 
Tension is in the air
Rising Expectations of Violence 
The Emperor has a death stare.

Vibe's are flat
Tensions are about to break
The Emperor is Mad.
His jowls begin to shake

(Flap flap flap)

Markus sees a need
He acts with sudden speed
He loves his Rome 
He loves his home
His next actions may get him killed.
Or, his Dreams could be fulfilled!

He claps out a song
Hoping to get the throng to clap along!!!!
Slow. Clap. A. Long.

Clap

Clap

Clap

Clap

He starts it slow, just a single bold beat,
Eyes are turnin’ ‘round to the emperor’s seat.
Clap… clap… now the rhythm takes hold,
One boy with a plan, now the crowd's getting bold.

Clap

Clap

Clap

Clap

The crowd is clapping 
People are cheering 
A happy populous 
Is what the Emperor is hearing

He smiles at Markus
He gives a small nod
Markus smiles back
While muttering "What a miserable Sod"

From satire to scene-stealer, Marcus is like a dagger,
The slow clap echoes like a victory swagger.
Now the Roman's roar, like lions in the cage,
Markus just smirks, he owns this stage.
No crown, no sword, no blood on his hands,
Just the first slow clap to land, that made them all stand.

That's the tale of Marcus who did a slap of a clap.

And now this song has to wrap.

So CLAP!!!!!!



Clap

I've got no use for you

LYRICS
Intro

Verse 1
I tore my face off just to see,
If God would still remember me.
My lungs were full of static screams,
The world collapsed inside my dreams.
I bit the hand that built the sun,
And choked on light till I was numb.
My veins ignite — my bones confess,
The universe is meaningless.
Swallow the void,
Breathe in the knife,
We rot for truth,
We bleed for life.
**Burn —**
Your faith, your flesh, your trust.
**Wear —**
The crown of rust.
**Break —**
The stars, the bones, the dust.
**Fall —**
The crown of rust.

Verse 2
A screaming child beneath my ribs,
Feeds on the guilt I can’t forgive.
The mirror laughed — it called me “King,”
Of every dead and dying thing.
I carved my name into the flood,
A sermon written out in blood.
No angels left, no saints to blame,
Just fire whispering my name.

Pre-Chorus
Swallow the void,
Breathe in the knife,
We rot for truth,
We bleed for life.

Chorus
**Burn —**
Your faith, your flesh, your trust.
**Wear —**
The crown of rust.
**Break —**
The stars, the bones, the dust.
**Fall —**
The crown of rust.

Bridge
I am the echo in the scream,
The dead god’s final fever dream.
The mouth of hell, the mother’s womb,
The silence waiting in your tomb.
You prayed for light —
You got the knife.
You prayed for peace —
Welcome to life.
**Burn —**
Your faith, your flesh, your trust.
**Wear —**
The crown of rust.
**Die —**
As all things must.
**Welcome —**
To the crown of rust.

Track Summary
“Crown of Rust” is EQUINOX OFFICIAL’s most violent spiritual statement to date — a descent beyond despair into the raw, corroded core of human consciousness.

Where “My Dying Flower” Track (https://soundcloud.com/equinox-switzerland/my-dying-flower-special-edition) mourned decay, “Crown of Rust” embraces it — fusing existential nihilism, ritualistic imagery, and industrial aggression into a single, blistering revelation.

The song’s haunting opening line, “I tore my face off just to see if God would still remember me,” serves as the manifesto of the piece: the destruction of self as a final, desperate act of truth-seeking. Through searing verses and a chorus that commands, “Burn your faith, your flesh, your trust — wear the crown of rust,” EQUINOX crafts a liturgy of defiance against divine silence and human fragility alike.

In this world, enlightenment is not a gift — it is a wound. Every scream, every fracture of belief becomes sacred. The “Crown of Rust” symbolizes the corrosion of faith into freedom, the transmutation of pain into dominion, and the grotesque beauty of endurance when all meaning has rotted away.

Amid thunderous distortion and ritualistic cadence, the listener is pulled into a sonic void — one where no gods remain, only echoes of their dying dreams, whispering in rust and flame.
This is not redemption. This is revelation.
This is the sound of what’s left after God is gone.

Track Description:
Crown of Rust (Special Edition) is a catastrophic meditation on the collapse of faith and the ascension of decay. Recorded and mastered in total isolation, it captures EQUINOX OFFICIAL’s signature fusion of brutal lyricism and philosophical depth — a soundscape where despair becomes divine.

With unrelenting vocal ferocity and haunting industrial undertones, Crown of Rust dares the listener to look directly into the void and see themselves reflected there — rusted, broken, and absolutely alive.
