Great track! I like that simple drum beat - it really drives the song along. A really fun listen. Nice job!

What have I done wrong today
To make you feel right?
Pleasing all my enemies
No one here's a friend of me
Push away the ones who stay
Keep no one in sight
Alone is where I wanna be
The silence gets the best of me
---------------------------------------------
Shut it out, just shut it out
In this cesspool starting to sprout
 ---------------------------------------------
Cutting off from everything
And everyone outside
I'm so much more at peace with me
A lonesome soul here spiritually
The toxic social manifest
Of new century
It's only getting worse at best
A cesspool growing petri dish 
---------------------------------------------
Shut it out, just shut it out
In this cesspool starting to sprout
This lack of substance gaining ground
So shut it out, just shut it out
---------------------------------------------
Solitary in confined
The mental clarity
Away from all the trendy things
That people will regurgitate
---------------------------------------------
Shut it out, just shut it out
In this cesspool starting to sprout
This lack of substance gaining ground
So shut it out, just shut it out

A UN AMIGO

Recuerdo octubre y aquella noche:
íbamos despacio y pensativos;
cuando el sol rayase el horizonte
tomaríamos rumbos distintos.

Eran ya varios los años
que compartíamos juntos
la tristeza en los fracasos
la alegría de los triunfos;
éramos ya como hermanos
sin secretos ni tapujos:
tus problemas eran de ambos
y los míos también tuyos.

Estribillo

Querido amigo Miguel
aunque tú no lo creas
eres la panacea
que cura mis heridas
de sonrisas fingidas
que veo en torno a mi ser.

Querido amigo Miguel
siempre estás a mi diestra
siendo llave maestra
de esa puerta que, a veces,
cierra tras sí mi suerte
y me hace desfallecer.

-------------

Recuerdo octubre y una mañana:
adoptó color de despedida
como si nuestros ojos plasmaran,
en el paisaje, lo que sentían.

Se iba ya un gran amigo
de los que no te abandonan
a pesar de que el destino
muchas veces no perdona;
de aquellos con ese sino
que convierte a la persona
en escudo ante el peligro
que al acecho está en las sombras.

Estribillo

TO A FRIEND

I remember October and that night:
we were going slowly and thoughtfully;
when the sun reached the horizon
we would take different paths.

It had been several years
that we shared together
the sadness of failures
the joy of triumphs;
we were already like brothers
without secrets or cover-ups:
your problems were both of ours
and mine were also yours.

Chorus

Dear friend Miguel
even if you don't believe it
you are the panacea
that heals my wounds
of fake smiles
that I see around my being.

Dear friend Miguel
you are always at my right hand
being the master key
to that door that, sometimes,
closes my luck behind it
and makes me faint.

-------------

I remember October and a morning:
it took on the color of farewell
as if our eyes captured,
in the landscape, what they felt.

A great friend was leaving
one of those who do not abandon you
even though fate
often does not forgive;
one of those with that fate
that turns a person
into a shield against the danger
that lurks in the shadows.

Chorus

A UN AMIGO (Feat. Manuel Palomino)

This is something we've been working on for a few months, but couldn't come up with any vocal ideas for - Much like the Alchemy song. So, instrumental it is. 

Cover arts by Charles Bittinger describe what we feel when listening to this much better than any explanation could.

If anybody cares: E Phrygian, Tempo flip flops between 115 to 130
Arrangement Structure is A - B - C - A - B

Outer Rings [Instrumental]

Intro:

Woke up to the sound of rain,
Dripping through the ceiling stain.
Bills stacked high on the counter there,
Turn on the news—more hate in the air.

Verse 1:
Prices climb but my pay stays low,
Seems like everywhere I go,
People shouting, pointing blame,
No one listens, it’s all the same.

Pre-Chorus:
And I don’t know how much more I can take,
Feels like the ground is starting to break…

Chorus:
Oh, everything’s falling apart,
But I’m still here with a heavy heart.
Trying to hold on, trying to stand tall,
When the walls cave in and the raindrops fall.

Verse 2:
Mama’s coughing, daddy’s weak,
Doctors say it’s getting bleak.
Kids got bruises, stitches tight,
Car’s in the shop, but they’re all right.

Pre-Chorus:
And I don’t know how much more I can take,
Feels like the ground is starting to break…

Chorus:
Oh, everything’s falling apart,
But I’m still here with a heavy heart.
Trying to hold on, trying to stand tall,
When the walls cave in and the raindrops fall.

Bridge:
And my old dog stares at me,
Her legs are weak, but her eyes still see.
She tries to run, but she just falls down,
Like this whole damn world is spinning ‘round.
But she wags her tail, won’t let go,
Maybe that’s something I should know…

Chorus:
Oh, everything’s falling apart,
But love still beats in a wounded heart.
I won’t let go, I’ll stand up tall,
Even when the raindrops fall.

Outro:
Roof still leaks, and the world still burns,
But love’s the only thing that returns.
So I hold on, though it’s torn apart,
Still a little light in the dark.

Falling apart

Howdy everybody! And Happy Easter!

We rarely give a preface to our songs 'cause we wanna leave everything up to interpretation as much as possible, but @thebeautifuldark inspired us to be more communicative. And so, we're back to Blues! No matter how far into Punk or Metal we go, good old Loud, Electric, Heavy Blues always pulls us back. This time around got @tezcatreal to give thanks for the Blues pivot. His crazy Hard Rock/Blues songs were a big inspiration for the overall theme. Check out both of them to listen music that is actually good!

So, a Blues Metal song about a blue sea, a sailor with the "blues", blue thunder clouds and an indescribable blue embodiment of all of those things (think Cthulhu) seemed like the most layers of one color we could stack up in under 5 minutes. 
Now what all that actually means, it's up to you to decide. We know what it means to us. 

Cover art by Ivan Aivazovsky is better than anything we could make. 

Enough blabbering:

Shades of Blue

We're out a-sailing
Miss my town, the waves they
Push us away into...
A storm at the edge of the earth
Reeling us

Pay no mind
Got Rum
And playing Dice all night, yeah...
Yeah!
Got the fish in the line!
Thunder, like drum
Scratching through the sky, yeah...
But we don't pay no mind...

Silence
Creeps slowly
And the waves seem so cozy
All of the sudden...
The Sea knows me
It could take us in its embrace
And swallow us whole

Yet!
We pay no mind, yeah...
Sailing through the night, yeah...
She'll take us for a ride
I'll awake 
Capsized
Holding for dear life, yeah...
We shouldn't have been so blind

[Solo]

Shades of Blue devour me
In a ship so alone
Lost at Sea, the mighty reef
It calls, Siren's calls

[Solo]

Waves of Blue are dragging me
Into a shadow from below
Shape uncanny surfacing
Beyond what I could show

[Solo]

These...
Chains of Blue, they weigh on me
Pulling down to the jaws
Of the Abyss of my beliefs
In this Sea, where I belong 

///////////APRIL 2025

Shades of Blue

"Endless Gloom" is a gothic rock elegy woven with synth-driven textures and cathedral-like atmosphere. Lyrically steeped in imagery of candlelit ruins, shadowed cathedrals, and eternal sorrow, the song evokes the solemn beauty of decay and memory. Dark guitars pulse beneath a haunting vocal, while shimmering synths echo like ghostly choirs in the void. Each verse draws deeper into a dreamlike descent—where marble saints weep, ivy binds time, and the night itself becomes a breathing entity.

Produced by EileenNoise

[Verse]
Candlelight flickers on the ancient stone
Echoes whisper secrets of the unknown
A ghostly choir hums beneath the moon's glare
Shadows stretch long like a midnight prayer

[Chorus]
Oh the night it breathes so cold
A tale of sorrow never told
In the cathedral's endless gloom
I hear the whispers of my doom

[Verse 2]
Stained glass weeps in crimson hues
The silence howls with mournful news
Marble saints with hollow eyes
Watch as the darkness slowly rise

[Bridge]
The raven cries a hymn of dread
A requiem for what is dead
The air is thick with a heavy sigh
A lament for the stars that die

[Chorus]
Oh the night it breathes so cold
A tale of sorrow never told
In the cathedral's endless gloom
I hear the whispers of my doom

[Verse 3]
Chains of ivy twist and bind
The clock strikes twelve and halts all time
The bell tolls once and fades away
Forever trapped in yesterday
