Love the guitars, very creative intro and melody. Great job!

Very cool track.  Really digging the heavy vibe and the slowdown in the bridge.

tasty chords and scales, really nice track. makes my head bang 🤘

some old school dark metal vibes, i love t

very interesting sound, I'm getting prog vibes, cool guitar work too

This song may appear simple, if not simplistic. This is right, it’s not a complicated, rather a common, story about opening the door to someone and having to let this someone leaves you one day through the very same door.

However, in life like in love, don’t let the ordinary fool you. The little things in life are the biggest ones and when you have to look back to realize it, you’re actually lost to those magical instants.
Zut doesn’t stand for « Zebra University of Technology », but for « damn! » or « oh, heck! » in French. Yes, in French! Writing in the language of Molière was an arduous choice. It took me a year or so to go from the original « kinda » French lyrics to the final ones, which were done in a bar, on a paper napkin, along a few drinks!

The melody and chords were the most intuitive to find, playing around for a few evenings. However, honestly, my accent didn’t suit the rhythms and atmosphere. Finding singers willing to contribute proved not to be an easier task! Finally, Oliver Neff aka Titanic Jack agreed to record the main vocals. Together with Maja Štebih with her nice back vocals, they made such a great work on this Indie folkish-poppish-rock track. 
Thanks to both of them for their time, trust and capacity to see, and bring, beauty into the world!

Darkwave is an experimental music project incorporating progressive thrash metal basics combined with symphonic and electronic elements. While the backbone of its music is built on massive old school thrash metal riffs, Darkwave doesn’t intend to limit itself to stay inside the boundaries of a single sub-genre, but rather to synthesize various feelings, influences and approaches into a complex musical entity.

Composing, guitars, bass and programming: Zsolt Némethy.
Cover art: Dávid Ujhelyi (Lupus Photo).

Lyrics:

I weigh my words to leave enough 
I still can use tomorrow
I'll find my way out of this slumber
My time is up today
I lie myself to justify
The choices that I follow

An endless masquerade...

Inhaling yet another faceless day of running round 
To keep up with the rest
Oh please
Just tell me what happens next - 
I wanna know this mask is worth its weight
To stay within the cast
Dream of invisibility - among these shadows I don't feel the same
Grey eminence of my insanity still pulling ropes behind the scenes

Inside...
Stranded in illusion of tomorrow

Benevolence - ill-fated partner of the failed,
Dream of denied, illusion soothing all the pain.
Veil of defense over new clothing of the king,
Nothing but faith when all is crashing down within

Word in word
Step in step
Silent resonance leaving the void

Inside...
Stranded in illusion of tomorrow

Word in word
Step in step
Silent resonance leaving the void

Inside...
Stranded in illusion of tomorrow

Rhyming life by day and breaking up against its twisted rhythm
Step in step
Still following the trail through all this smoke to find what's real

Tomorrow

O SON LOS TOROS EN LA NIEBLA

Oscuro atardecer, 
los toros en la niebla,
polvo de tierra, faz,
fieras del agua seca.

Lamento de arena,
camas de piedra, selva,
la noche vive azul,
revés del alma abierta.

Brebaje de alacrán,
traspasa la vereda,
paraje circular,
viento de sal y hierba.

As Time Goes By

It washes over my soul again
Surrounding me, controlling me
Feel the weight of your words today
Frustrating me and suffocating me 

It’s all you’ve ever wanted just relive that lie 
Again and again
I walk a line too thin I’ll never reach that place
A gift from within

I close my arms to misery
To breathe new life 
And set me free

I need to find a way home
It’s cold in the darkness inside my head
I need to find a way home
And silence the madness when I see red

See the walls become sand with time
To rescue me where I’m supposed to be
Have the space to reclaim what’s mine
A vision now where I was blind to see

It's all you ever wanted
It's all you ever wanted
It's all you ever wanted
Breathe new life and set me free

Home

We shouldn't have to fight.
The piles of skulls must show it.
Who cares who's really right?
Nobody really knows it.
The road out of this place.
Littered with bones like you and me.
The dreams that floated high.
Same as dreams that sink to ground.

This is a road to nowhere.
It's all a route to now.

A spaceman in the clouds,
knows that he matters nought.
A twinkling in the eye.
Your time has come around.
The bell tolls out for thee.
The bells keep ringing out.
The cowboys and the cows.
Are dust to blow around...,

This is a road to nowhere.
It's all a route to now.
We're all on a road to nowhere.
There isn't even hell.

I don't think on the world,
When I'm no longer in it.
and if I try to think on death.
I just can't see much in it.
I do not think of frying pans,
somebody making love to you,
I do not sit and think and about.
All the people waiting to die.

This is a road to nowhere.
It's all a route to now.
We're all on a road to nowhere.
There isn't even hell.

A Road To Nowhere

When you’ve lost your place
Spinning around in space
And all stands still
And you’ve searched the past
Did it slip away too fast
The time to kill
Is it all just fake
How much can you take
What’s this all for
Hard to face today
Has to be a better way
Is there something more

Always where you want to be (when it comes creeping in)
It means everything it’s everything tonight
Show me what you need to feel
You mean everything you’re everything tonight

If you see past the charms
You’ll find open arms
To lead you here
Find another way
Cast above the gray
Relieve your fears
Don’t look back again
Stand out in the rain
To cleanse your soul
Nights to long to roam
I’ll light your way back home
Reclaim control 

And when it all comes down
You’ll never stand alone

Everything

Promise of the Sun (lyrics)

I built a fortress, under the sea
you held the ladder, but not for me

you were ascending, while I fell down
no moral endings, the silence was profound

you were a martyr, when no one cared,
the crowd that gathered, they all just stared

you found the courage, when there was none
the hardest lesson, be still when you could run

both sides were certain, both sides were wrong,
both sides deserted, the promise of the sun

don't relapse, don't relapse, don't relapse...

you were a stranger, in foreign lands
you spoke the language, they didn't understand

the mob was shouting, they wanted blood
the mindless smashing, as if they all were drugged

both sides were certain, both sides were wrong,
both sides deserted, the promise of the sun

don't relapse, don't relapse, don't relapse

if you hear laughing, and nothing sane
don't be discouraged, the prisoners run the cage

don't relapse, don't relapse, don't relapse... don't collapse

Questione siciliana

Questione Siciliana

Darkwave is my experimental music project built on the backbone of old-school metal riffs, with an outlook to a wide variety of musical scenes. Despite its intimate connections with progressive – and even thrash – metal, the musical dynamics I try to accomplish in Darkwave often deviates from the classical concept of the genre (e.g. the catching tempo generated by tight rhythmicity), and incorporates elements with significantly different tonal and emotional characteristics, ranging from thrash, power, doom or symphonic metal themes to electronic, classical or even jazz elements.

Such a diverse mixture of different styles is seldom intentional, but rather a mixture of instinctual and intentional elements reflecting the character of the composer and the impact of influences shaping the songwriting process. Balancing on the razor-sharp edge between these domains of human consciousness, I think it’s always revealing to indentify the composer’s primary influences to understand the core philosophy behind the final product. Despite their essential innervation with thrash metal, my main influences come from somewhere far beyond, from the distant realms of hard rock, NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal), and – in certain extent – from classical (or even gregorian) music. I see it as some kind of an evolutionary process: first it was the intensity, then the complexity of the music that grabbed my attention and put a significant emphasis on my way of looking at all things music. Regarding the metal frontrunners, the complexity of the Shermann-Denner duo’s guitarwork as well as the dark, monumental, epic atmosphere of Tony Iommi‘s musical skyscrapers clearly shaped my personal attitude to music. Still, the artistic genius of the late Jon Lord (who aimed at building bridges between “old” and “new”, traditional and modern) was that characteristical influence that put its almost deterministic mark on my musical taste and creations. I started to listen to bands that somehow unite various territories of the world of music: it felt amazing to listen to Mekong Delta’s Suite for Group and Orchestra or the jazz-metal fusions by Atheist until the point that I could finally identify a third essential element besides intensity and complexity: the gloomy, epic, emotional (sometimes sad) and monumental atmosphere: something that I could find so often not only in music, but also in my favorite books and poems. And this is that exact point, where the intentional and instinctual motifs become somewhat indistinguishable from each other, and form a distinct entity of thoughts, feelings, desires and aims that might be characterized as my personal attitude to music, art – and in general, life.

It’s not that hard to grip the essence of that attitude. I tend to agree with G. K. Chesterton‘s paradoxical jeremiad from 1905 on the loss of universals (“…we are more and more to discuss details in art, politics, literature… Everything matters — except everything.“) and accept that it’s always the core philosophy behind art (or “everything“…) that we must understand, if we ever want to grab the creator’s personality that is mirrored in the final product. The secondary details in composition, performance or production are merely consequences of this primary attitude or basic approach behind the creative process. My primary aim with Darkwave has always been (and will ever be) nothing else but to formulate, express and transmit feelings and thoughts without words, while constantly realizing that there exists nothing more suitable to facilitate this communication between human souls than music itself.

“When words fail, music speaks.”
