有些回憶褪了色，只有你自己記得他原本的斑斕的樣子。但你怎麼能確定呢？一起經歷的人不在了、一起經歷的場景更迭了，能跟誰求證，你們曾經一起大笑、大哭、爭吵的一切，百分之百是活著的、彩色的？
你怎麼曉得，在對方的心裡，是否跟你一樣，把這份回憶安放在重要之處？

Sittin' in the city, lookin' out the window
I'm thinking 'bout the days
the days of the story end, I’m empty
Got a faded picture on the wall
Brings back memories of story never told
The story never told

I'm always trapped in time,
I’m done, livin' in the story of their dirty past

But I will make it last
But I will make it last
Gotta keep pushin', gotta break the memory
Please Hold on tight, please never lie

Faded Memories
Our Faded Memories
Faded Memories
throw me back to the dream
Faded Memories
Our Faded Memories
Faded Faded Faded
Faded Memories

Got a faded picture on the wall
Brings back memories of story never told
The story never told

But I will make it last
Please Hold on tight, please never lie

Faded Memories
Our Faded Memories
Faded Memories
throw me back to the dream
Faded Memories
Our Faded Memories
Faded Faded Faded
Faded Memories

Faded Memory ft. 童心Valentina (Original Mix) [WBS Production]

“Success Kills” by MAROL is a cynical love letter to ambition — and a warning to everyone chasing the dream.
It’s about how the system teaches us to run faster, work harder, and fake happiness while losing the parts of ourselves that made us human.
The song laughs at the illusion of success, while quietly asking if winning still counts when you’ve forgotten why you started running.

Success Kills

Marol is a musician, producer and songwriter born in 1982 in a small village in northern Sweden.

He started playing guitar at the age of eight, learning mostly through family rather than formal lessons. Music quickly became a space for curiosity and experimentation. At ten, he received an Amiga 1200 and discovered a simple music program that allowed him to create tracks using samples. From there, his world expanded.

Early influences ranged from Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails to reggae and pop acts like Ace of Base. Recording ideas on cassette tape, Marol began shaping his own sound long before finding a studio. Piano and synthesizers were always close by — his grandparents’ piano and a cousin’s synths became playgrounds for sound and intuition.

In the 1990s, with access to workstations and software like Cubase and Logic, he focused heavily on electronic music. At 21, his track Northern Lights was played on local radio — a quiet milestone that encouraged him to keep going.

Later, his path crossed with musicians from the grindcore and metal scene. Electronic elements met heavy guitars and guttural vocals, forming the band Zophrenia, where contrasts became collaboration. When the band dissolved, Marol moved to Norway, set up a home studio, and continued creating independently.

Between 2020 and 2022, new technology opened a simpler, more direct workflow. It allowed him to work closer to instinct — faster, freer, and more aligned with his ideas and emotions. His music remained his own, but without the need to slow down or compromise the creative process.

Today, Marol’s work is fluid and exploratory. He moves between genres without attachment, always experimenting, always in motion. Music is deeply personal to him — he only produces what feels honest and real in the moment.

Recently relocating to Vienna, what began as a short visit turned into a new chapter. The city sparked fresh inspiration, and he decided to stay. Alongside music, Marol now also creates music videos, a long-standing passion that has found new life.

For those who get bored easily — congratulations.
Marol doesn’t have that problem.
