lyrics
outside this life a light appears
a chill i've felt throughout these years
my dreams have brought it back to me
this image only i can see
this coldness burns me from within
awake in a dream
cold
so lost in sleep
old
how have i passed through these walls blind?
a sorrow creeps into my mind
lying awake with my eyes shut
these walls will tremble from its touch
as i escape inside
the rift grows wide
it follows me inside
beneath this life
i can see no light deep in this broken sky
i can see no light so far in this broken night
oh, this spirit visits me
slips in my dreams at night
a sorrow creeps into my life
awaken by cold hands
their fingers around my neck
i'll hide away from time
asleep i'm so cold

This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10 Buzzario
A ferocious display of blackened stoner-doom from Moscow's Moanhand, who offsets moments of bleak ugliness with clean, haunting melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 23, 2021
