This track was created out of frustration within an hour, when another gothism-oriented project, that I had been working on for months, fell apart. Then I quickly decided to take matters into my own hands and so I wrote this song about Goths, who usually respect (and sometimes even worship) astronomical phenomena, such as “the blood moon”. The blood moon is a total lunar eclipse in which the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon and causing it to appear reddish (or bloody). I was considering two possible titles for this song: “Bloodmooners” and “Bloodmooning”. In the end, the first option won. Enjoy!

The origin of this particular track can be traced back to 2003, when it was first recorded by Wojciech Makowski in his home recording studio. The poem is addressed to the pure feeling of love to which the real human features were assigned by using a stylistic form of personification. In this song, love is a specific lyrical entity which is treated as a real human being. An entirely new version of this song is proposed in 2024 with modified lyrics as well as changed melodies and instrumental arrangements with the gothic touch of Kamil Walczak. Enjoy!

The origin of this particular track can be traced back to 1992, when similar song was rejected by my then-band (A Herd Of The Rushing Vises) in which I played on a bass guitar. The lyrics of this song expressed our hidden intentions to leave our hometown in which we grew up for good. At that time, we really wanted to escape from the small-town mentality of our local community, where everyone knew almost everything about everyone else. Back then, we were under the irresistible impression that this place was slowly (but surely) killing our dreams and ambitions. 30 years later: my hometown has become a foggy and unrealistically distant dreamland. However, I still miss the atmosphere of this small town and all those incredible people who knew me so well.

Em & Double-U is a Polish-American darkwave band, formed online in 2019 by two childhood friends: Wojciech Makowski [a.k.a. Em] (vocals, synthesizers, samplers, programming) and Kamil Walczak [a.k.a. Double-U] (guitars, bass, drums, vocals, programming). In 1992-93, they were co-founders of the Polish coldwave band, A Herd Of The Rushing Vises, which broke up after recording a demo tape “The Bad Place” (1993). Since then, their musical paths have diverged to merge again during the Covid-19 pandemic due to their unwavering friendship and their intact passion for music. Since the very beginning, the band has been associated with the Metronome School of Music and Recording Studio in New York City. So far, they have released 4 full-length studio albums: "A Lethal Dose Of Sadness" (2002), "Beacon Of Hope" (2003), "Phantoms" (2004), and "Stolen Dreams" (2025). Presently, they are working intensively on their 5th album "Silent Suffering" (with original material from 2003). Wojciech Makowski is a prolific creator of piano and ambient music, while Kamil Walczak is an enthusiastic creator of gothic music.
