Death Mask

“Beneath the chilly moonglow one ponders the delicious conundrum of the Forbidden. The thrill of diving into the depths of desire to satiate an unnamable yearning. In the grand opera of life, some find their hearts drawn to the most enigmatic of duets. A dance shrouded in secrecy, away from the prying eyes of the world’s chorus. In the covert corners of existence, Forbidden romances bloom like exotic flowers, their allure only heightened by their veiled nature. “I know you’re craving; we were outcasts all along,” whispers the siren song of the heart, a tune as old as time yet ever fresh to those who dare to listen. Perhaps it’s not about right and wrong but the irresistible pull of the tantalizing Forbidden. The eerie video delves into this mystery realm with gusto, taking us on a strange sojourn into the twilight. The haunting voice of Pete Mills serves as a guiding light through this shadowy adventure, cutting through the darkness with the intensity and warmth of a candle’s flame. His earnest croon adds a layer of depth and sincerity. The protagonists, outcasts by nature, grapple with their desires in the shadows. Amidst secrets and whispers, their passion is intense yet prohibited, leading them to a paradise where they are exiled, consumed by a dark and irresistible love.”

Moonlight through my window
The world around us sleeps
Lamp lights the darkness
From the shadows that we keep

I know your waiting
In the twilight until dawn				
I know you’re craving
We were outcasts all along
Maybe we were wrong to do it
Or just sick for what we need 

Forbidden Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden
We fall into the waves of paradise 
Exiled for life
Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden 

Secrets, cut like scissors
Through the truth, down below
Poisonous whispers
How much do they know?

Forbidden Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden
We fall into the waves of paradise 
Exiled for life
Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden 

Every night the sun sets slowly
My darkened heart so controls me 
Beneath the silver moon I can’t wait to taste you
I’m sucked into the black hole of your arms 

Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden 

Fall into the waves of paradise 
Exiled for life
Forbidden Forbidden 
Forbidden Forbidden 
Couldn’t keep myself away although I tried 
Burned by your fire
Forbidden Forbidden
Forbidden Forbidden

he Frozen Autumn is an Italian darkwave band, formed in May 1993 in Turin, Italy. Originally the solo project of singer, keyboardist and synth programmer Diego Merletto, guitarist Claudio Brosio joined on during early studio sessions and live performances. Together they recorded and released two albums, “Pale Awakening” in 1995 and “Fragments of Memories” in 1997. In 1998, Claudio left the band and Diego recruited Arianna (aka Froxeanne) who sings, programs and composes. After 18 months of work, The Frozen Autumn's third album, “Emotional Screening Device”, was released in April 2002.

“Time Is Just A Memory” is a 6-track overview of songs from The Frozen Autumn’s first three albums. Characterized by a blend of melancholic vocals, atmospheric gothic-wave and 1980s-style electropop, the duo call their style "frozen wave”. The Frozen Autumn have stated that labelmates Clan of Xymox have been their main source of inspiration over the years. Other influences include Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, The Sisters of Mercy, Xmal Deutschland, David Sylvian and Depeche Mode. These six tracks stand out for their rich melodies, from the  guitar-laden early tracks “Dusk Is Like A Dagger”, “Wait For Nothing”, “There's No Time To Recall”, and “This Time,” to the  electronic sheen on later songs “Is Everything Real?” and “Silence Is Talking”.

All songs have been remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The release is housed in a custom-made jacket by Peer Lebrecht, from German electro/synthpop band The Dust Of Basement, incorporating a photograph by Diego over a textured background that recalls early 4AD designs. Each copy comes with a double sided 11x11 insert with lyrics and notes.
