Sleeping With Sirens - Do It Now Remember It Later

A Day to Remember - Have Faith In Me

This one came from diving deep into the real history of places like Trans-Allegheny, Danvers State Hospital, and Willowbrook. These weren't just hospitals - they were human warehouses where society dumped anyone deemed "unfit," then subjected them to barbaric treatments in the name of medicine.

The song opens with that Gothic architecture imagery because these places were built to look imposing and fortress-like - designed to keep people in and the world out. "They called it treatment, called it care / While demons danced in every stair" captures how these institutions hid torture behind medical terminology.

What really gets me is how they turned healing into horror - electroshock without anesthesia, ice baths, lobotomies performed with ice picks. "Lobotomies with rusty tools / Turning humans into fools" - that's not metaphor, that actually happened to thousands of people who just needed help.

The "halls of madness" concept works because these buildings literally absorbed decades of suffering. When you read about people visiting these abandoned places, they all report the same thing - an overwhelming sense of dread, like the walls themselves remember the pain.

Musically, this is Gothic metal at 130 BPM in A minor - that perfect key for institutional horror themes. The track operates on multiple rhythmic layers with a crushing 65 BPM doom foundation, 130 BPM driving energy, and aggressive tremolo bursts. That dominant 110 Hz frequency gives it genuine cathedral-like resonance, making the 'halls' feel massive and oppressive. It's Gothic metal in the truest sense - not just heavy, but architecturally heavy, like the buildings themselves are singing.

The song follows classic metal structure with clear verse-chorus cycles, energy spikes and dips that mirror the emotional journey, and a central guitar solo that lets the Gothic horror atmosphere really breathe before building to that crushing finale.

This appeals to fans of Paradise Lost, Type O Negative, Tristania, and Moonspell - listeners drawn to heavy but atmospheric metal that balances aggression with gothic elegance. It's for people who want music that doesn't just pummel you, but creates a mood and tells a story.

With AI helping me create that Gothic horror sound, it perfectly matched the anger I was feeling about these buried crimes. This song's about remembering the victims and making sure we never forget what happens when society decides some people are disposable.

A darkened march through towering corridors of sound — heavy riffs and cathedral shadows intertwine, carrying the listener through the relentless yet hypnotic Halls of Madness.
