Finally some funk metal in my life. Great work!

Karl's take on metal is high art! Your musical culture has a lot to do with it!

Great song. Keep on playing. Love the sound!

Good and original tune. I enjoyed the sound and energy.

No. 2 form our first album! One of the early formated song at the beginings of band existance. Humans sometimes can't handle anger and pain! Imagination about revange can help them sometimes but is it a good way to take care of it?

First Seal Broken

Purified By Fire

I don't care 
If you wanna you can go ahead and stare
It's alright if I don't fit in your world view
I just gotta be true

Cuz I'm just doing my thing Yeah
I'm just doing my thing C'mon

There's a narrow line between heaven and hell
You keep pushing me pushing me pushing me a little bit closer to that edge
I don't really like the me that you're telling me to be
I don't have the time or the patience to wait for you to figure me out
I don't have the time or the patience to wait for you to figure me out

I don't care 
If you wanna you can go ahead and stare
I don't mind if we don't see eye to eye
I just gotta be me

It's so hard to get it all to click when I find it I just want it to stick
I'm taking things slow even though you're telling me to go
If you're holding the up elevator well I'm going down the stairz
I don't have the time or the patience to wait for you to figure me out
I don't have the time or the patience to wait for you to figure me out

I don't care 
If you wanna you can go ahead and stare
It's just fine if you think that I crossed the line
Just don't tell me how to be

Cuz I'm just doing my thing Yeah
I'm just doing my thing C'mon

Told You

Composed for Z-I-v Freestyle Showcase 2023

Fortunae Funk

Translation:

Couplet 1.
If you want to, you can drown
Asleep in alcohol or tobacco smoke.
Take my hand and open your soul
Cause if you jump, I'll jump with you.

Chorus:
Listen to me...
You're just a candle flame, in a night without hope!
And love can't do everything...

Couplet 2.
But after winter comes spring,
Where there was eternal ice, there will be water.
And your heart is poisoned again:
Another man's toy, another man's love.

Chorus.
Listen to me...
You're just a candle flame in a night without hope!
And love can't do everything...
But it's like I'm blind and your faint light
I can't seem to find my way.

Пламя свечи (Candle flame)

YEAH

I’ve never been this high
In my entire life
Glad that it’s just you and I
Love this trip has been a vibe

Comfortable silence seems
Harder to find 
in the loudest of times
That we livin through

Trust is a gift
That I could only give to you
Tell me the sitch 
we don’t gotta do interviews

If I’m keepin it real
Only woman I give it to
By standards of beauty
Babygirl you the pinnacle 
Take a look at our souls
I’ll be damned they’re identical
Somehow help me find center
You’re the one that I listen to

Tell me I’m what you want
Im getting high on your love
While doin lines off ya butt
Wonder can I get enough

When it’s all said and done
Hope that we still having fun
Hope I’m the one that you run to
The one you call when you’re drunk

Put your forehead against mine
When I look inside your eyes
Electric pulses in my mind
And ideas start to fly
So overwhelmed that I could cry
Play show n tell wit yo vagina
Our bodies touch 
We change the climate
Even our climax synchronized and
We’ve really got a gift with timing
Someone like you hard to find
You never complicate the vibes and
You seem fine peace and quiet
Really brings me piece of mind 
Shit ain’t perfect but we trying
If I hurt you I would die
See I don’t like to see you crying
When I’m lost I know you’ll find me

Baby I’m telling you 
I could be all that you have ever wanted 
Fuck around holdin ya hand out in public
Hope we can do this shit til a hundred
Shawty that body is somethin I covet
Dress how you want baby girl
Why would I wanna cover it
Party all night
Then mimosa recovery

You’re the speedball
That I feel before the free fall
Last thing I see with my eyes
And the first thing that I think off
When I wake up from my sleep
Love you’re the thing that I dream of 
On my most optimal nights

Tell me I’m what you want
I’m gettin high in your love
While doin lines off ya butt
Wonder can I get enough

I’ve never been this high
In my entire life
Glad that it’s just you and I
Love this trip has been a vibe

Who This Is

cryin out, all inside, your so far
Holdin' onto moments, driftin' apar,   
somethin' felt wrong, saw it in your eyes,  
Pretendin' everythin's fine, hidin' the lies.

Karl Kim is a man of many musical hats (perhaps too many for his own good, but that's a discussion for another time). 

​​His musical journey started off with piano lessons at age six, and from there he has picked up many other instruments over the years, including but not limited to: violin, guitar, trombone, and various percussion instruments. Karl was also just as quick to branch out to styles of music other than classical; most significant of these styles is rock and metal (especially of the progressive variety), but jazz, EDM, experimental music, and folk music from various parts of the world have also played a role in shaping him as a musician. 

As a concert music composer, these musical experiences, especially those as a metal guitarist, are what make up the voice that he projects into his compositions, especially in recent times. Pieces like "The Jury is Sleepless", "Without a Minute to Spare", and "So Cold, So Dark, So Chaotic" exist at a crossroads between music for the concert hall and music for the mosh pit. His music has been performed by ensembles such as the Rhythm Method, S.E.M., and Bearthoven, and he holds a B.M. in Music Theory and Composition from New York University. 

"Karl with a K" is an alter ego of Karl Kim. Karl with a K, while having the same musical background as Karl Kim, draws upon a fascination for rhythm game music that started with Dance Dance Revolution at the age of eight, and grew considerably to encompass games including, but not limited to, Sound Voltex, In the Groove, beatmania IIDX, Voez, and Arcaea. Karl with a K brings his background in metal and 20th century classical music into rhythm game original tracks such as "!CAUTION! small but deadly", "BELLUM", and "rudimentary methods of overkill", which can be characterized by plenty of guitars, unusual rhythms, and sometimes non-instruments being used as instruments. Much of his output as Karl with a K is written for the purposes of Stepmania simfile creation (though as of BMS of Fighters: EighTeen's "0verfl0w_err0r" this is no longer exclusively the case).

Karl Kim currently resides in Bloomington, Indiana where he is pursuing an M.M. in Music Scoring for Visual Media at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Karl with a K can be seen lurking around the internet (especially specific Discord servers), occasionally not being above a good meme from time to time. In addition, Karl with a K is working on his first project as a game developer, a typing meets rhythm gaming fusion titled "glyph;".
