Leave nothing warm and breathing
I friggen love that really somber synth in the background at parts. The bass is legit, too. Nice work!
Now this sounds more like a single ... great song
Lyrics:
-Verse 1-
Glide low to stay hidden
A payload deforms truth before you
Lie to yourself
Because you’re a tired soul
Oh
Crease, divide and fold
The pages that could not tell you
Where to go
Not you
Not now
Your origami door
Won’t weather this elemental firestorm
No
-Chorus-
Decimate the burden
Recrystalize defeat
To show a little courage
Leave nothing warm and breathing
-Verse 2-
So lie to yourself
No matter what you’ve been told
No
You will not feel
You will not heal
-Bridge-
Not you
Not now
Let not a grudge define you
(its just) a recurrent hostage taking thought
-Chorus 2-
If I decimate your burdens
Will I stigmatize your grief?
If I could show some courage
To see if I’m still breathing
I knew the way
But I knew I couldn’t help you
It’s like chloroform was pouring through the awnings
Ignite the lanterns on your way
Dither not, decimate the burdens
Is this about people not.even trying because they had a hard time? Am i getting this right?
@@mistakenotou7681 It has a lot of meanings.
It's about people following false doctrines and having their lives fall apart because of it.
Being deceived. Especially to one's self. Many people go through mental health issues in denial.
It's also about trying to help someone who is in pain, but the act of doing that could cause more pain in other ways.
"If I decimate your burdens, will I stigmatize your grief".
It's also about black and white thinking
"To show a little courage, leave nothing warm and breathing" -- ie either try a little, or leave nothing alive. Psychologically this relates to 'splitting' -- typical in Borderline and OCD patients. When confronted with hardship, the 'splitting' response is to either give up, or go all in -- with no middle ground.
Regarding hardship, yes giving up is part of the meaning.
And yeah it also later in the song takes on the perspective of watching someone go down a painful spiral, knowing WHAT you could do to help, but also knowing that it won't ultimately work. (see the ending lyrics).
"Ignite the lanterns on the way, Dither not, Decimate the burdens" -- ie, I know you're hurting, keep in contact and let me know where you are, try to keep your wits, break through pain so I can see you again when you are 'through'.
@@Comaduster Incredibly insightful! Thanks for actually taking the time to explain in depth.
@@Villicus No prob. I write in metaphor a lot. Sometimes it's easy to explain (this record is easier because it contains a lot of personal accounts), but sometimes it's more nebulous to explain.
I'll add -- It's also about having to accept that you sometimes need to let someone suffer through their problems in order to truly learn to deal with them. Even if you can intervene and help them, it's that realization that you need to hold back and let things progress naturally. Otherwise you risk destroying things completely.
I love it so much ♥_♥ Preordered immediately ♥
Thank you so much for the support! It's so important these days.
Minus 29 Days...
Since my last comment I have listened to Solace a few times. I hope that if I bought the album through google play you get some money. I love your work since I heard your remix of End of an Empire.
I am certain that Darker Matter will be my favourite album of yours ^^
Thank you so much for the support! :-) This one is a big one for sure.
Looking forward to the rest of the album dude. So far its been great, even though honestly this isn't my favorite track of the bunch (not to make anyone mad, I still do like it). I am looking forward to the release later on and will probably preorder it once I get my paycheck tomorrow. Keep it up, and no sweat dude.
Thank you for the support! Every tune on this record is pretty different from each other one, so there's bound to be some that don't resonate as much :-)
@@Comaduster yeah. Overall its better to risk making a song that people might not be as used to rather than make the same exact song over and over again. I respect anyone's endeavor to keep it fresh, because I sure as hell couldn't do it.
So these are the few promo rounds that you told me about:)
Reduce the burden by one tenth
But how would that help anybody? LEAVE NOTHING WARM AND BREATHING.
You will not feel
You will not heal
Really enjoyed this song. The electronics hit harder and the beats come faster than anything else from this set of music so far which makes for a really fun track overall. The instrumental buildup to the first chorus after verse 1's end in particular being awesome to experience. What I found most interesting about the track though isn't so much what it does, but also what was absent. Mainly that the vocals seemed more sparse and spaced out than in a lot of the other recent singles, letting the electronics take center stage and speak for themselves, which really worked for me on this track. When the vocals do come in, they were often integrated in a way that they didn't really overshadow the background elements. Gave it a different feel from many of the others, which feel more chorus driven (not a complaint at all by the way, love the band's lyrics and voice). The other notable absence was the absence of sound at about 2:46 where we get a beat of nothing. Weaponizing silence in such a heavy track like this was a neat touch, catching me a bit by surprise during the first listen. It's probably one of my favourite elements in this track as I haven't heard too many tracks utilizing quiet as a tool quite like this does, my favourite example of which being near the end of Nine Inch Nails' song "Terrible Lie".
So overall this is probably tied for my favourite from this new album thus far alongside "What Can Never Be Taken From You". Can't wait to hear more from Darker Matter.
Thank you. Really glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the thoughtful comment. Yeah -- this is a more frantic and noise driven track. It's definitely framed more with IDM and noise type sonics -- I kind of went for an anti-EDM approach (which actually happens a lot on this record), as I'm pretty tired of those 'doofy' snares, and the sam kick used in every song, etc. There's a lot of mid - late 90s IDM influence all over here. You also caught on to the vocal motif. It is used sparingly, because I wanted the choruses to have more impact when they DID come in. Each chorus also has a different meaning lyrically, which is a bit different. But yeah in the verses (and well, everywhere -- like you describe), I wanted them to blend in with the electronics more. As I've mentioned before -- every song on this album is pretty distinct from each other one. The title track is a winding odyssey of multilayer temporal loops and doom metal devastation at points -- I can't wait to see the 'WTF' all over when that one comes out with the album release.
But, The next tune to be revealed prior to that is ... probably the 'poppiest' one. Probably the poppiest one I've ever really done. I'm REALLY excited for it, it even gets stuck in my head after all of this time :-)
You are giving me a very difficult decision when the album comes out. Listening to it in it's entirety and hearing the self titled song in context with the rest or skipping ahead and checking out that track first. Sounds like it will be awesome! As for your other one, I'm a bit surprised to see it described as really "poppy", as I don't think I would really ascribe that label to your previous work but I'm definitely excited to hear it soon too.
@@SpinoPrime Well 'poppy' to me generally means it's got a catchy chorus lol. But people haven't heard that one yet :-)
@@SpinoPrime ruclips.net/video/94rSkwxX6WI/видео.html
Some new sounds here... but still not the 'poppy' song I'm talking about.
Definitely some grindy doomy, and decimate the burden is in it, and Bad Blood.... which is like Twang Glitch Doom Trap lol
Instrumental is avail on Spotify :-) : open.spotify.com/track/3nfRQhx6hUc7fwVsReORdC?si=BhH_pPiVRT2GSfzXOLIb2Q
So... pandora has the tracklist for the material that's been released already....
Just thought you should know.

Well damn. That's what I get for not being active on band camp. Lol.
@@trzigweid All good. Everything will make sense eventually :-)
The transition from pyramids to this is absolutely breathtaking. I'm super stoked to hear the album in its entirety.
kinda reminds me of seether
