lyrics

06 Memento Mori
music: Martin Schnella
lyrics: Kiri Geile

Moros:
You keep an eye on the new division
You feel in charge of them in some way
Hope flows through their veins, repress the pictures
Which will track them 'till the end

Nemesis:
You hear the bell, it's time for operation
No time for rest or your dignity
Start the engines and call the functions
Which they've burned into your mind

Hades:
Every time
Under control
Ready or not
You are on call
Elemental powers are destroying your race
Into your face
Desert a'where
Wells seep away
Shadows bat around the world they're reaching for your souls
Open fire
Put up the fight
freedom fighter
Devastated biosphere is hamper the breathe
Mortal combat
Storm is growing
Storm is brewing
Fundermental wall of water

Hera:
All those years you've been yearning for any cause to stay alive
When the day defeats the night, you still have survived
With a modicum of hope you will be geared up for the show
The bottom line is to emerge victorious

Moros:
Adrenalin is overflowing, is drowning out reality
All your senses are linked with systems
They'll prevent malfunction

Hera:
All those years you've been yearning for any cause to stay alive
When the day defeats the night, you still have survived
With a modicum of hope you will be geared up for the show
The bottom line is to emerge victorious

Hades:
Oh, fear my force
Your defeat is near
I sound the death knell for your world

Piper:
I hide my heart from the strike
I still have to carry out my task
It's not forlorn
The visions told me the truth

Hera:
Abysmal souls with hidden secrets that will never be resolved
Now you saved a soldiers life with a human reflex
Badly injured almost gripped by an erratic solar storm
In the darkest of your hours she touched your aching heart

Hera & Nemesis
Save her life
Take her back
To the tutelar district
No regret
No resort
Keep calm

Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024

Himlabacken Vol. 2 (24-bit audio)
by Moon Safari

supported by 9 fans who also own “Memento Mori”

"Moon Safari" is back with a full-length studio album after more than 10 years - not counting the interesting collaboration in 2016 with Steve Nardelli and his band "The Syn". It's the long-awaited second part of "Himlabacken", and it's in the same vein, to my delight. Once again, incredible melody arcs and lush vocal harmonies in abundance! Pontus Åkesson surprises with an AOR ballad - unusual for the band, but such a magnificent one that it became my favorite track. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
