Ever wonder what Metalcore and Big Band would sound like mixed together.  Well wonder no more and listen to this song.

[Intro]
Enchant my soul,
Be my endless drift,
I can’t turn away,
You were my entire world.

[Verse 1]
If the past is mere echoes,
Then tomorrow could hold our stars.
If we’re bound to this moment’s glow,
Stir my deepest desires,
Enwrap me.

[Chorus]
We’re swaying like tides rippling in the dark,
We move with the pull of the moon before fading apart.
You’re close to my heart but just out of my grasp,
You know my soul’s path, yet you tease the chords again.

[Post-Chorus]
Glimmer like whispers,
Drifting past the glow,
Enthralled, spellbound,
By the light in her gaze.
You caught me off guard,
Then you vanished in a breath,
In a fleeting spark.

[Verse 2]
Draw me into the current,
Enwrap me in waves,
Enchant my core,
Phantom, gravity,
Pulling me toward my bliss.

[Chorus]
We’re swaying like tides rippling in the dark,
We move with the pull of the moon before fading apart.
You’re close to my heart but just out of my grasp,
You know my soul’s path, yet you tease the chords again.

[Post-Chorus]
Glimmer like whispers,
Drifting past the glow,
Bewitched, entranced,
Claim what remains of my time.
A ripple in fate,
Where do you fade?

[Bridge]
A ripple in fate,
Claim what remains of my time,
Before you slip away.
Reveal what it means to truly see,
The soul behind the veil,
In this realm I shaped to last forever.
But amidst the vast, I now perceive,
A life without you holds no place for me.

[Breakdown]
Where do you drift when I shut my eyes?
What do you find gazing back at me?
Am I just a shade, like you?
Bound within the weave of two entwined harmonies.

[Outro Chorus]
We’re swaying like tides rippling in the dark,
We move with the pull of the moon before fading apart.
You’re close to my heart but just out of my grasp,
You know my soul’s path, yet you tease the chords again.
Glimmer like whispers drifting past the glow,
Bound by this tide, we become the undertow.

Shatter My Soul

Cursed and Crowned is a relentless journey through spiritual battle, redemption, and raw emotion. Inspired by the heaviness of Bullet for My Valentine and the cinematic depth of modern metalcore, it blends crushing breakdowns, soaring clean choruses, and lyrics that confront the darkness head-on while pointing to the light. From the haunting “Graveheart” to the anthemic title track, every song bleeds passion, pain, and the victory found in surrender.

Signal Broken

Kissed by the Wolves of Winter

Toxic” is a dark, hard-hitting rock anthem about the inner war we fight against ourselves—the lies we believe, the guilt we carry, and the chains we build from fear and doubt. With gritty riffs, shredding energy, and searing vocals, the track becomes a battle cry for breaking free from the toxicity we bury within.

A slow, haunting guitar builds into an explosive riff, setting a tense, moody atmosphere. The verses confront the inner critic—the true enemy—while the pre-chorus tightens like a vise before erupting into a fierce release: “Toxic! You’re poison in my veins, Toxic! Set fire to your chains.”

More than a song about toxic relationships, “Toxic” digs into the ways we hold ourselves captive and the moment we choose to rise. The bridge hits like a mantra of freedom, and the final chorus lands with raw defiance. By the end, the past is ash, and the path ahead is clean.
A cathartic, liberating track for anyone ready to face their demons and break free.

Toxic

Bound Forever

The Black Cross is a gothic metal band conjuring soundscapes steeped in darkness, mysticism, and cinematic intensity. Formed as a ritualistic union of heavy riffs, haunting melodies, and baroque aesthetics, the band blends elements of hard rock, doom, punk, and darkwave into a force both brutal and beautiful.

Led by frontman Michael on vocals and guitar, the five-member coven includes the enigmatic Lilith (synth & vocals), the shadowy axe-wielder Cain (rhythm guitar), brooding low-end guardian Malach (bass), and the fierce and relentless Abaddon (drums). Each member represents a different facet of the band’s occult-inspired persona.

Their debut album The Chapel of Shadows introduced a new liturgy of sonic storytelling — songs like Velvet Crucifix, The Seraphim Lie, and Darkness Is My Friend explore themes of sin, salvation, and the sacred in decay. With theatrical visuals, powerful live performances, and an ever-expanding mythology, The Black Cross is more than a band — it's a resurrection in sound.

Listen. Worship. Burn the silence.
