You have always been in my world A tragedy I sigh
I have always been in yours All I did I deny
You were searching for tomorrow Oh, your presence I despise
I was searching for eternity
Futile are your deeds forevermore
Fragile are my dreams forevermore
I have always been on my own All time has been a lie
I was blinded by your thoughts All illusions were yours
We have always been in our world An illusion we believe
We are one in eternity
Futile are your deeds forevermore
Fragile are my dreams forevermore
epic, pastoral doom that yet radiates with the sadness and anguish of the abused. a powerful, moving work - if only the band had a different name... risottoeater
So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka
