The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
"The Descent"
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

‘The Descent’ presents a theatrical experience of the awe-inspiring, impetuous, almost frightening, beauty of nature. It is narrated by the voice of Mother Nature herself, who recites an ominous monologue warning us of an imminent disaster.

The song offers a glimpse into the psyche and essence of Mother Nature and her duality – who is both at once Gaia – the gentlest mother, who at her bosom feeds plants and all things living, and Mother Nature – the great equaliser, the wrathful goddess Kali, she who is the source of all of Earth’s calamities. 

Hypnotic, meditative, and bittersweet, ‘The Descent’ seeks to evoke an experience of the purity and beauty of Mother Nature and how quickly she can turn into a wild and destructive force, bringing death and desolation to all who stand in her path. 

'The Descent' by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara, was released worldwide on November 6, 2020.

About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara

The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a London-based duo comprising Andrea Papi and Daphne Ang. Coming together in early 2020 to record their debut album FULL SPECTRUM, the duo are fast establishing their niche in music as pioneers of a new form of expression, through the performance of poetry in music, and as an act that traverses between the wide-reaching spectrums of music. 

Drawing inspiration from TOOL and Kraftwerk, as well as the poetry of Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf, and Jim Morrison, TCOMAS brings literature, art, and history together into a space where rock and metal meets electronic.

🎵 'The Descent' - Lyrics

Why won't you and I escape from this gilded age,
Away from this crumbling world
We can sail away on the seven seas,
On a porcelain ship, with satin sails, on seas of mercury

We will coax the monsters out from their deepest trenches 
To meet Surya's warm rays
We will relive the purity and innocence before the Fall of man

In our utopia, 
we will make a nest of fresh grass and lace,
And spend endless nights solving the mysteries of the Arnolfini portrait

We will never experience apathy, ennui, nor despair
We will be far from the scourge of disease,
And grow forbidden fruit from a tree,
And eat from it without fear or guilt 
Each day will have the glory of all four seasons

Everything will be sublime,
Every day will be divine 
It is only a universe away
Just you and me

We can live as immortals, 
Forever nubile, 
Forever fertile,
Your flesh in mine 

Won't you come with me
Only if you want to

When the jarring silence confronts you, 
Reply with a melodious, well-strung haiku
When faced with nothing but shards and smithereens of a flawed existence
A glorious train wreck on her maiden voyage to a phantom promise land

Detesting the white light of truth,
Its unflattering glare, 
Leaving nothing bare,
Penetrating the thickest smog of ignorance

Gasping for air as your flounder and flail
Your face pressed against a glass ceiling
Silence,
White light,
Greatest nemesis

What we need is a baptism of fire,
A tabula rasa
Fertile soils to sow the seeds of a new world
But will we emerge scarred or unscathed

Huddle with me
In a foetal gnarl 
How cathartic it must be
Toba has awaken

All is white-hot,
All is chaos
Happy now, 
They put down their shotguns and bibles

Indeed, purgatory is at our doorsteps
One thousand years of darkness
Finally, the long-awaited rapture has arrived,
Sucking the self-righteous into its clouds.

But not you, not me
I’d like us to be left behind on this godforsaken wasteland,
To witness the apocalypse
Climbing trees, to have a glimpse of the world,
Crumbling, nevertheless
