ULCERATE - Extinguished Light

Talking in my sleep, cursing through my teeth, sweating in the heat 
Stuck inside this dream of darkening frustration
Liars in my dream, I’m frightened and I’m weak, there’s nothing left for me
And the visions I endure are simply entertainment
Dark figures chasing me, I hear the wolf that cries, see them multiply
You’re ablaze behind the eyes; they burn into a memory
A sudden sense of hope, the virtue of my ghost, you’re another ugly host
And I can’t believe that you would just deny everything
I choose to live free
It took a second warning then I said goodbye
With tainted eyes I need to believe 
It took a little longer to sympathise
And you were hoping I would give in to you
I won't dance because you want me to
No romance; deep down I only want to be the same
Now there’s nowhere left to hide 
Game of chance; I roll the dice for you
Hopeless glance; deep down I only want to be the same
Now there’s nowhere left to hide 
The greatest thing you’ll ever learn 
Is just to love and be loved in return
I’m living such a life; therein lies your problem 
Imperfect, circular, entropy the fatal conclusion 
With a little sympathy it’ll burn inside, let the fires decide
Imperfect and circular
I won’t comfort you; no it won’t be the same
There’s nowhere left to hide 
And I won’t comfort you; no it won’t be the same
There’s nowhere left to hide 
And I won’t comfort you; no it won’t be the same
There’s nowhere left to hide 
And I won’t comfort you; no it won’t be the same
There’s nowhere left to hide

Polaris

Dystopia

Will I disappear with a vision of tomorrow?
Will I disappear?
Will I disappear with a vision of tomorrow?
Will I disappear until I can’t feel the light?
Will I disappear with a memory of your sorrow?
Will I disappear until I can’t feel the light?
Ten years of hope have past
You felt alone and pictured life a little differently
And people say that life has just begun
You waited patiently, a lotus in the sun
You radiate for me in luminescent light 
And People say that life has just begun
When you’re not a part of me I feel dead inside
Disturbed; will I disappear with a vision of tomorrow
Until I can’t feel the light?
Disturbed; when I get the feeling I've been here before 
I’m the abandoner
Ten years of sorrow passed
No pleasure in the sun 
You couldn’t cope in all honesty
The secrets of the past will come undone
Seasons of change elapse
Honour no mistrust 
Faithfully until the day you die
And People say the journey’s just begun 
When you’re not a part of me I feel dead inside
Disturbed; will I disappear with a vision of tomorrow
Or will I fall?
Disturbed, when I get the feeling I've been here before
Disturbed, will I disappear with a vision of tomorrow
Or will I fall?
Disturbed, when I get the feeling I've been here before
I’m the abandoner

Survival

Your smile’s giving me all that you know 
I’m your design
Voices explode in the dark 
Don’t shoot the messenger; it’s not our fault 
Your words, weighing me down, smother me 
I’m your design
Do you know I’d take the empty road? But it’s too dangerous to explore 
Is your world much safer than before because I don’t feel whole? 
Destroy entire, destroy entire worlds
Enter into the sound, I’ll behave for you 
Casting fear into doubt, I was made for you
Apathetic interaction; another distraction 
A lack of compassion for the weak that you don’t see 
Hopelessly I. 
Can you see the flood? 
Can you feel the urgency?
Can you see the sunset behind the willow tree?
Apathetic interaction; another distraction 
A lack of compassion for the weak that you don’t see

Messenger

Here I can breathe again 
I left it all behind to watch the days go by
Now I can breathe again 
I choose to never let go
So take your time, concentrate
Know the clock is ticking - don’t be late
Stand your ground, do your worst
Fragile frame, minor world
Take your time, prove your worth 
Don’t look behind, you’ll make it worse 
Why won’t you forgive me?
I was so alone, soaking to the bone
How could you forgive me?
Was I pitiful, unforgivable?
Unholiest, irreverent, immoral son. 
Ungodly one

BIOGRAPHY:

Daniel Tompkins is an award winning and innovative British singer / songwriter from Nottinghamshire in The East Midlands. More widely recognised as the singer for TesseracT with his unique live performances and unmistakable dramatic soundscapes on the highly acclaimed albums ‘One’ and 'Polaris'. Since 2009 Daniel has established himself as a highly respected vocalist with a dedicated worldwide fan base. Arguably one of the busiest collaborative vocalists, Daniel’s voice has been celebrated as one of the best in modern progressive rock and metal.
 
Daniel has released a diverse catalogue of records to date and in doing so demonstrated a natural ability to marry his distinct voice to various genres and yet remain in mesmerising control of his audience. However, much more than a recording artist, he is an accomplished performer who has earned a host of awards and honours having toured the world, sharing the stage with artists such as Iron Maiden, Gojira, Lamb of God, Devin Townsend, Meshuggah, Senses Fail, Animals As Leaders, No Use For A Name, Periphery and Protest The Hero
 
Looking to the future Daniel now balances his time between TesseracT and White Moth Black Butterfly and his various collaborations continuing to create a strong impression within the music industry. 
 
PEER AND PRESS QUOTES:

“Dan has a hell of a voice!!!” – DEVIN TOWNSEND 
 
“Check out the awesome vocals of Dan Tompkins, the man can sing YEAH!!’ – JON GOMM
 
“The dramatic soundscapes Dan Tompkins creates really are on another level, standing above the current crop of vocalists out there. Tesseract are destined for great things with a frontman leading the charge like this…one of the best vocals in modern metal” – SCUZZ TV (UK)
 
“An exceptional album from (White Moth Black Butterfly) Dan Tompkins. An absolutely essential work. Experimental, accessible and quite brilliant. This ranks high amongst this year’s progressive releases.” – Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine
 
“There are so many musicians out there who jump from genre to genre and experiment with different kinds of sound but not all of them are able to pull it off. Out there, a bunch of them have the ability to make things so awkward, you’d just want to question what they were thinking. But then again, there are the special ones, the ones who shine in the dark and shine even brighter against the sun. The One’s who fully understand and are able to control their capabilities and of course the ones who actually know how to take things to the next level. They have this gift in whatever they do, it just works. One man who’s got this gift is UK-based vocalist, Daniel Tompkins – PULP MAGAZINE (MANILA)
