Happiness in Self Destruction

🎧 SoundCloud Description — “Between the Last Blink and the Abyss” by The Fractured - Eric Morris
Concept
Between the Last Blink and the Abyss dives into the split-second world that exists between wakefulness and nightmare—
the moment where reality bends, shadows crawl, and the mind becomes its own haunted landscape.
This song never says what’s happening outright.
Instead, it shows you what the protagonist sees as the world around them melts into something twisted and surreal.
Shifting walls.
Hands rising from the floor.
Voices whispering from nowhere.
It’s the sound of someone slipping into the dream-state where nightmares live…
whether they’re ready or not.
Sound & Style
This track blends modern metal heaviness with dark atmospheric tension:
Drop-tuned guitars grinding beneath sinister ambient layers
Sudden rhythmic drops mirroring the fall into unconsciousness
Haunting melodic passages that feel dreamlike and disorienting
Explosive choruses evoking panic, hallucination, and surrender
A vocal delivery that moves between whispered dread and full-force aggression
It’s equal parts surreal, emotional, and unnerving—a journey into the unknown regions of the mind.
Visual Concept
The cover art captures the exact moment when consciousness slips:
a figure sinking through the floor of their own room into a blackened void,
hands rising to greet them from below.
The room bends, distorts, and dissolves—
reality unraveling just before the fall.
For the Listener
This song is for anyone who’s ever felt that moment of confusion between dreaming and waking—
where shadows feel alive,
the air feels thick,
and you’re not sure if you’re still in your body.
Play it loud.
Let it swallow you.
And don’t blink…
because you might not come back the same.
