Re-Extase 22

Pale Ontology

Worker's Lament

From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. 

// Smell of Your Rot
“Smell of Your Rot” is about breaking free from the chains of psychological abuse. The song is told from the point of view of a woman who reconnects with her soul in order to take back control of her sense of self after years of living under the control and oppression of a coercive partner. A symphony of metal guitars and classical strings set the scene for this triumphant moment of liberation — which can be likened to waking up from “a deep restless sleep lasting years and year long”. Finally, she sees everything in the world in a completely different light.

// The Album
'Trust No Leaders' is a record that weaves a voyage through heavy metal history — from its roots in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal up until present day, fusing heavy metal with their signature ‘poetry performance’. Set against orchestral and cinematic soundscapes, the record also pays tribute to non-Western musical traditions, including Native American and South American folk music, Vedic chants, and Indo-Persian classical music. The lyrics bring together elements from modern theater, classical Persian poetry, to Jungian Psychology and theology. 

Commenting on the motivation behind Trust No Leaders, 
TCOMAS: "Our inspiration extends beyond musical genres and the confines of discipline.The confluence of influences in our album extend throughout time and across cultures. In retrospect, this really captures our ethos: Look back into the past for insight, and look into the future with foresight. And in doing so, we created something new of our own."

Landing about 15 months after their debut album Full Spectrum, the duo’s sophomore LP expresses a more aggressive side to the band and was recorded last summer at TCOMAS’ studio in Camden Town, London.   

Discussing the new album’s motivation, TCOMAS:
"The current crisis and the events of our time have made it necessary for us to analyse, investigate, and expose the issues in urgent need of systemic change by looking inwards into the human condition. We want the album to be a beacon of hope, for making a future that prioritises people and the environment."

// About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
Hailed as ‘pioneers of a new form of expression’ through the performance of poetry in music, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a UK-based duo comprising Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy), who came together in London in early 2020 to record their debut album, Full Spectrum, released on 26 Feb 2021. Breaking new ground in the way they combine progressive music, poetry, and vision, TCOMAS fills a gap in music by bringing literature, theatre, and history, fusing rock and metal, with poetry performance. Their sophomore album, Trust No Leaders, is due to arrive on July 1, 2022.

When you are happy 
What things do you do?
Heaven rejoice when sinners repent of their sins 
Heavens rejoice when sinners repent let not the things you celebrate push you into sin 
Temptations come along 
But so not fall 
Deliver us from evils 
And lead us not into temptation the Lord's prayer said 
Oh fix your mind on things above 
Oh no Matter what we are running after 
A day is coming that we'll leave them behind 
We're gonna look at them and they'll make no sense

Desires

Mellow (2023) demo

Lyrics: 

Do you remember what you told me
That night when you were lonely
You said you had a voice in your head
And the light was going out slowly
You'd never been afraid of the dark
But had a pain in your heart and it was coming apart
I didn't know what to say, I was lost myself
Like any other day

We used to spend our afternoons
Smoking cigarettes in the other room
We'd listen to that new song on repeat
Until the lights came on
Didn't know that it was that bad
I never knew about your step-dad
When I think about what might have been
What I could have, should have done with the chance again

Doesn't seem so long
When the years are gone
Now we've all moved on
But the memories are strong
Never thought I'd see
The day that you were gone

Late nights in downtown, with the windows down
And the Denver sounds
We had a good time, with the girls looking pretty
In the lights in the city
You said you wanted to drive, we're the first to get going
But the last to arrive
We never got tired
Those nights were wired

Later on we realized what we were doing then
Was a little misguided
When I knew you couldn't hide it
You weren't going to fight it
I remember that I saw you in the middle of the night
And you weren't alright
And that's the last time
Your flame ignited

Doesn't seem so long
When the years are gone
Now we've all moved on
But the memories are strong
Never thought I'd see
The day that you were gone

Like Any Other Day

We do our songs together in 2014... was the first work we do together... The men behind the curtain... have fun

Underneath the starry sky (oh)
Feel the music take us high (yeah)
Lights are flashing in our eyes (woo)
Grooving in this paradise
Holding hands, we're unified (ah)
Let's get lost in this moment

Tomorrowland, we'll rise tonight (oh yeah)
Hearts electrified with dreams in flight
Tomorrowland, with all our might (oh oh)
We'll dance till we chase the light

Every beat, every turn (oh)
Fires in our souls will burn
Together we break the norm (woo)
In this trance, our spirits swarm
Unity within this space (yeah)
Feel the love in this embrace

Tomorrowland, we'll rise tonight (oh yeah)
Hearts electrified with dreams in flight
Tomorrowland, with all our might (oh oh)
We'll dance till we chase the light

Feel the rush, no slowing down
In this magic, do not drown
Let the sound lift you, take flight
In Tomorrowland, our night

Tomorrowland, we'll rise tonight (oh yeah)
Hearts electrified with dreams in flight
Tomorrowland, with all our might (oh oh)
We'll dance till we chase the light

Saline brings a mixture of fuzz, colliding melodies, and low strings wrapped in melancholy, with a nod to 80s-90s heavy metal and alternative.

1.	
I´ve got the feeling when I saw you the first time
You walked away and ignored me (the) whole day
I cannot help it but you look like a lime
So tall and beautiful I want you to stay

Bridge:

With all your nice jewels around your neck
You give me the feeling to be a wreck
May the sun shine onto your beautiful head
Then I´m impressend and don’t wanna be dead

2.	
I wonder why, why you did not come by
It would be time to realize the fact
There is no more reason why I should cry
It´s just so funny to see how you act

Bridge:

With all your nice jewels around your neck
You give me the feeling to be a wreck
May the sun shine onto your beautiful head

Chorus: 		
You´re the one – I was dreaming
Now I know – It was my screaming
You are such an unapproachable girl
You are such an unapproachable girl

Unapproachable girl one day I will reach you
Just wait for our sign
It might be that it takes some time

Bridge:

With all your nice jewels around your neck
You give me the feeling to be a wreck
May the sun shine onto your beautiful head

Chorus:
You´re the one – I was dreaming
Now I know – It was my screaming
You are such an unapproachable girl
You are such an unapproachable girl

You´re the one – I was dreaming
Now I know – It was my screaming
You are such an unapproachable girl
You are such an unapproachable girl
You are such an unapproachable girl
You are such an unapproachable girl
