"Hoe-Hoe-Hoe"
I see you're shaking your ass on your slut-athon
Still too fat to be fucked but hey keep going on
You've painted your eyes and your scars all black
Denying what you are
You've crossed the line, there's no turning back
With your wet cow-eyes you |

Ну вот, совсем другое дело!
Признаюсь, первый альбом этой группы, «Escapexstacy» (2003), был неплох, но только как сайд-проект, как нечто несерьезное. Второй, из-за Вили на вокале, волей-неволей напоминал о славной группе Sentenced, однако все аналогии не в пользу альбома «Lust Stained Despair» (2006). На нем был драйв, агрессия, но не было всеми любимой мрачной атмосферы вообще. Альбом был крайне сух и сложен для восприятия из-за почти полного отсутствия клавиш и соло гитары, да и песни слишком уж походили друг на друга.
На новом альбоме парни реабилитировались. Да, может быть, уровень партий соло-гитары все еще не на уровне Sentenced (но тогда бы пришлось говорить о возникновении новой легенды), но они есть и, что называется, в тему. Присутствует достаточное количество клавиш, а песни стали не только легко различаться между собой, но и иметь свойство подолгу задерживаться у тебя в голове. Резкой смены стилистики не произошло (да и не планировалось), налицо, пожалуй, рост Вилли, как композитора. Пока это еще не стопроцентная хитовость Sentenced, но шаг в этом направлении сделан. А к слову, заключительный проигрыш в песне «A Dead Heavy Day», да как собственно вся песня, легко бы вписалась на альбом тех же Сентенсид – очень красиво и меланхолично. В отличие от предыдущего альбома, «боевики» стали более грамотными, запоминающимися. Мои фавориты: «Hatelove», «Bear the Cross», «Me, Myself & I» и, конечно «A Dead Heavy Day». Остальные песни так же сильны, просто после пяти прослушиваний запомнились больше именно эти. Резюмируя, стоит отметить, что группа сделала плавный, но уверенный шаг в своем развитии, на мой взгляд, в правильном направлении. Теперь материал балансирует на стыке Sentenced и Sinamore (не знаете эту команду? Срочно ознакомьтесь – очень достойный готик-метал!). А расти есть еще куда, поэтому оценка высокая, но не высшая. Рекомендую всем. |

Отличная работа. Это был первый альбом, который я прослушала у этой группы, и ни капельки об этом не пожалела. В этом альбоме есть все - и драйвовые боевики, и лиричные баллады, и депрессивные среднетемповые композиции. Хотелось бы отметить «Diane» и «Bear the Cross», «Me, Myself and I», которые заводят с первых секунд. Очень радуют тяжелые гитары с эффектом «песка» и сочные ударные, особенно в «Diane», которые не позволяют композиции стать монотонной и расставляют смысловые акценты. Одноименную альбому песню считаю просто великолепной, поскольку группе прекрасно удалось совместить тяжелые риффы с клавишными, которые идут фоном в одной гармони и только подчеркивают основную мелодику, никоим образом не довлея и не мешая воспринимать композицию как «металлическую». Чтобы отдохнуть от такого бешеного напора, авторы в середине альбома предлагают прослушать балладу «Х», которая выполнена в совершенно неожиданном ритм-энд-блюзовском стиле, качающий ритм. Прекрасный вокал, тяжелый припев, который не дает нам забыть, что это все-таки gothic metal. Далее идут неплохие боевики, в которых - о, чудо! - я обнаружила прекрасные сольные гитарные партии! Но я понимаю, почему альбом группа решила завершить песней «Only You Can Tear Me Apart». Медленная, депрессивная, но с цепляющими соляками, которые не перегружены техничностью и органично вливаются в мелодику композиции, чаще всего повторяя ее основной мотив с вариациями. Если честно, не заметила, как прошли эти семь минут.
Я не знаток творчества этой группы, не довелось мне послушать их предыдущие работы - хотя теперь думаю, что стоит - но я слушаю этот альбом уже почти месяц. Чего и вам советую - каждый найдет тут песню по душе. Моя оценка – «8». Повторяюсь, прекрасный альбом. |

Poisonblack - группа, которую сложно назвать даже готикой, как собственно и Sentenced. Хотя ко второй группе можно этот стиль подходит больше, чем к первой. С другой стороны я и не могу отнести эти группы ни к одному из других стилей.
Что касается альбома... Вышел довольно качественный и интересный, местами мрачный, печальный материал. Еще печальнее становится от того когда слышишь до боли похожие моменты звучания от Sentenced. Про вокал Вилле я вообще молчу - это часть духа Sentenced. Хотелось бы выделить некоторые композиции, которые, по-моему, заслуживают особого внимания: «Left Behind» (за красивый мелодичный припев), «Bear the Cross» (в целом хороша), «A Dead Heavy Day» (за мрачность, которая позаимствована у Sentenced), «Only You Can Tear Me Apart» (красивая баллада, без всяких сомнений вызовет слезу у поклонников бывшей группы, в которой был Вилле). Даже вступление чем-то напоминает вступление из «The Gate» из альбома Sentenced – «Down».
В целом мне альбом нравится, как и предыдущие альбомы, но данный продукт является более четким, не размазанным, каждая песня - уникальна, что и не может не радовать.
Единственное, что мне не понятно... Почему Вилле, заканчивая музыкальную карьеру, продолжает исполнять роль гитариста и + вокалиста в группе? Зачем нужно было хоронить Sentenced, если ты делаешь копию проекта, только меняешь название? Один плюс в этом всём - захоронение Sentenced добавляет еще больше мрачности, загадочности и легендарности группе, чего, возможно, и добивался коллектив. |

Sucking the fingers pointed at you
Denying what you are
You say: See you on the other side
What the hell is this other side?
Diane - Tell me is your hell freezing over?
Diane - Is the hunt finally over?
Drop dead gorgeous is what you're not
Two tits and a hole is all that you've got
You search for a heartbeat amid the dead
Becoming what they are
Now open your eyes and see you're lying on a bed
Aching all over as you've fucked with the dead
Tears run down your (s)cum-stained face
You are what you are
You say: See you on the other side
What the hell is this other side?
Diane - Tell me is your hell freezing over??
Diane - Is the hunt finally over?
Diane - Tell me what is behind those eyes?
Diane - Is life regrets and lies?
Diane - Tell me is your hell freezing over?
Diane - Is the hunt finally over?
Diane - Tell me what is behind those eyes?
Diane - Is life regrets and lies?
3. Left Behind
"The days of bending over are over!"
I am closing
Shutting down this need so vain
For this time around
I won't live the past again
I have chosen
To leave your trap so far behind
To bury your face
I have failed but not this time
Then I feel you slashing through me
I am the one you tried to leave behind
I am the guilt you'll always feel (taste the pain)
Just pour me in and face the rain again (face the pain)
And I will take you to the end
I'm inhaling
The scent of everything I've done
To bury disgrace
Is to pull the trigger...
I am done
Then I feel you slashing through me
I am the one you tried to leave behind
I am the guilt you'll always feel (taste the pain)
Just pour me in and face the rain again (face the pain)
And I will take you to the end
[Solo: Laihiala]
Then I feel you slashing through me
I am the one you tried to leave behind
I am the guilt you'll always feel (taste the pain)
Just pour me in and face the rain again (face the pain)
And I will take you to the end
Just pour me in and face the rain again (face the pain)
And I will take you to the end...
4. Bear The Cross
"Carpe Diem?"
Lame spirits beaten by this love
Countless times have given in, surrendered
Worthlessness weights heavy on the hearts
And pleas for life to wake up seem to echo in vain
And slowly we bury our pain
Bear this cross for the rest of our time
With trust forsaking us
Blame is braking us
Is this all truly worth of our lies?
Together we stand alone
Bear this cross for the rest of these lives
We both know we're coming back
Yeah, we're coming back
Is this all truly worth of our cries?
Together we die alone
Moaning in this pseudo-happiness
Where the shit stained teeth fake a smile
Keeping everything locked within
When true tears are reliving
And the warmth of an embrace, not a threat
And slowly we bury our dead
Bear this cross for the rest of our time
With trust forsaking us
Blame is braking us
Is this all truly worth of our lies?
Together we stand alone
Bear this cross for the rest of these lives
We both know we're coming back
Yeah, we're coming back
Is this all truly worth of our cries?
Together we die alone
(Bear this cross for the rest of our time)
Bear this cross for the rest of our time
With trust forsaking us
Blame is braking us
Is this all truly worth of our lies?
Together we stand alone
Bear this cross for the rest of these lives
We both know we're coming back
Yeah, we're coming back
Is this all truly worth of our cries?
Together we die alone
5. A Dead Heavy Day
When two becomes one
Life pulls a gun
Many turns to none
Devotion and sharing
Loving and caring
Then it all disappears
It holds onto our fears
And we just want to disappear
Hold our breath right here united in our misery
Torn in the claws of fear
End it all right here inside our bitter agony
When there's nothing there
That we can bear
Just lay beside me here
Indifference prevailing
We fell and we gave in
As it all disappeared
It holds onto our fears
And we just want to disappear
Hold our breath right here united in our misery
Torn in the claws of fear
End it all right here inside our bitter agony
6. Me Myself And I
"Lust and you'll rust"
Enough about you, let's talk about me
My ego refuses to hear or see
To be distressed by your reality
Don't give a fuck about you, it's all about me
I know I control the struggle to be pseudo-free
to keep loss at arms' length
to make you bow and bend
So come and get me babe
Come invade my mind
Chew and tell me what my shit tastes like
So come and take me babe
Are you of my kind?
Laughing in denial when the end is nigh
Enough about you, let's talk about me
My disastrous lies will make you bleed for me
And I will lure you into my reality
Don't give a fuck about you, it's all about me
For I am the big star and you're just a wanna-be, wanna be
with me
Keep your love at arms' length
Can't make me bow and bend
So come and get me babe
Come invade my mind
Chew and tell me what my shit tastes like
So come and take me babe
Are you of my kind?
Laughing in denial when the end is nigh
So come and get me babe
Come invade my mind
Chew and tell me what my shit tastes like
So come and take me babe
Are you of my kind?
Laughing in denial when the end is nigh
So come and get me babe
Come invade my mind
Chew and tell me what my shit tastes like
So come and take me babe
Are you of my kind?
Laughing in denial when the end is nigh
7. X
"(No)Hope!"
T'was stone on my tongue
So how did I expect you to understand
Conceit grown too strong
True love an excuse to submit, to demand
Please take my hand and kill the sickness within me
I'm sure that you can
Not sure that you can
Did death do us part?
Well, to us now we're truly dead
Oh, suffer my heart
As our funeral still lives in my head
Please stay away and leave the sickness within me
I'm sure that you'll stay away
Dead sure that you'll stay
When you hear this song
Know, everything's gone
And when you hear this song
You know you must bear along
Or are you playing the part as if your heart's forgotten?
Entire
Unscarred
What a perfect disaster
Absorbing shit from left to right
But making love we did master
That constant battle our primal fight
Please touch again and awake the sickness within me
Touch me again dear
Come, touch me again
When you hear this song
Know, everything's gone
And when you hear this song
You know you must bear along
Or are you playing the part as if your heart's forgotten?
Entire
Unscarred
When you hear this song
Know, everything's gone
And when you hear this song
You know you must bear along
Or are you playing the part as if your heart's forgotten?
Entire
Unscarred
When you hear this song
Know, everything's gone so wrong
And when you bear this song
You know you must sing along
Is this not true?
From me to you
I know you can feel it too
8. Human-Compost
[Music & Lyrics: Laihiala]
I'm surrounded by sub-entity
I knew it would happen
Figure in black would take me into the shades
Six-feet under and it's hard to breathe
I knew it would end here
Sheep in wolf's clothing entombed in waste
Today I wish I'd have a gun
Gasping for air I'm rotting all alone
Just how I wanted
With Karma's blades carving my flesh to bone
I am reaping everything I've sown
The filth I have planted
And digging south towards the great unknown
Oh yes I wish I'd have a gun
Been playing the bitter game with leeches sucking blood out from my veins
With hook in mouth I've gone astray
Been shovelling shit in vain;
From grave to grave burying myself
Just one last death before I go to hell
Here I lie my shovel next to me
Still squeezing the handle
There are many like it but this one's mine
Hole after hole it's suffered 'cause of me
Growing the anger
With contempt and loathing over all that is I
Somebody please give me a gun
Been playing the bitter game with leeches sucking blood out from my veins
With hook in mouth I've gone astray
Been shovelling shit in vain;
From grave to grave burying myself
Just one last death before I go to hell
Human-compost I am
Human-compost I am
Human-compost I am
Human-compost I am
I am!
Somebody please give me a
Somebody please give me a gun
Been playing the bitter game with leeches sucking blood out from my veins
With hook in mouth I've gone astray
Been shovelling shit in vain;
From grave to grave burying myself
Just one last death before I go to hell
9. The Days Between
"I don't want to miss you"
This muting numbness is far from the peace I am searching
Just a twisted silence - Weird tranquillity
An uncomfortable heartless kiss is what you left me with darling
Your twisted violence - Cold audacity
I hate these days between life and death
Cannot feel the warmth of your embrace
Yes there's nothing left of me
I take these days between and lay 'em to rest eternally
And let the memory of your face be just another stranger to me
This soothing numbness is not exactly what I am searching
This pitch-black silence
Deathlike tranquillity
But this uncomfortable heartless bliss is where you left me in darling
But hey, you are forgiven because...
I love these between life and death
Cannot feel the warmth of your embrace
Yes there's nothing left of me
I take these days between and lay 'em to rest eternally
And let the memory of your face be just another stranger to me
I don't want to miss you
I don't want to miss you
I don't want to miss you
I don't want to miss your love
I don't want to miss your love
I hate these days between life and death
Cannot feel the warmth of your embrace
Yes there's nothing left of me
I take these days between and lay 'em to rest eternally
And let the memory of your face be just another stranger to me
10. Hatelove
Hand in hand
A gun in hand
Ready to shoot down a promise again
Tempting lips, burnt fingertips
Ready to tell another lie once again
Hand in hand
A chunk in hand
Ready to take another bite once again
Swollen lips, swaying hips
Able to whisper a lie once again
Floating down this river of shit with you
Can't you see that I am so full of it
And I know you're too
It takes two to play this sick game
Two going insane
So tight is the noose around our necks
Words roll out in vain
Looking for something to blame
Don't you think that enough is already said?
We play this sick game while going insane
So tight is the noose around our necks
Words come out in vain
Looking for someone to blame
Don't you think that too much is already dead?
Hand in hand
A gun in hand
Ready to kill another promise again
Tempting lips, burnt fingertips
Ready to yell another lie once again
Floating down this river of shit with you
Can't you see that I am so full of it
But fuck you too!
It takes two to play this sick game
Two going insane
So tight is the noose around our necks
Words roll out in vain
Looking for something to blame
Don't you think that enough is already said?
We play this sick game while going insane
So tight is the noose around our necks
Words come out in vain
Looking for someone to blame
Don't you think that too much is already dead?

11. Low Life
"Just 1 for the road"
Drool runs down from my mouth again
Low-life - I've killed myself again
Time is running out too fast for me
Living in lie is just too much for me
And the next day dawns dead
Off with my head
And the circle begins again
No place left to somber
Not a single rock I can crawl under
Never again or forevermore - Self-deception calls
This heavy lead
Full bottle
Then crawl along the floor
This is the End I won't take anymore - Again the weak one
falls
Straight ahead
Full throttle
Smashed against the wall
I can see that you don't get it
It eats you alive if you let it
That's what I've done
No place left to run
Not a single rock I can crawl under
Never again or forevermore - Self-deception calls
This heavy lead
Full bottle
Then crawl along the floor
This is the End I won't take anymore - Again the weak one
falls
Straight ahead
Full throttle
Smashed against the wall
Never again or forevermore - Self-deception calls
This heavy lead
Full bottle
Then crawl along the floor
This is the End I won't take anymore - Again the weak one
falls
Straight ahead
Full throttle
Smashed against the wall
Never again or forevermore - Self-deception calls
This heavy lead
Full bottle
Then crawl along the floor
This is the End I won't take anymore - Again the weak one
falls
Straight ahead
Full throttle
Smashed against the wall
12. Only You Can Tear Me Apart
"In this room with no doors, A year-old scent of a trust
betrayed"
Drop a word and I shake
That one look and I break down
And then you bury the dead again
Could you ever forgive?
When I let in the lies to give you faith
Please don't raise the dead again
Are we reaching the end?
The shortest straw's been pulled and can't be bent no more
But it ain't over yet
Don't turn away
Listen to me - These words I say to you
It ain't over yet
Cut me down to size
Only you can tear me apart - No lies being told tonight
Love me down to size
Even though I broke your heart - Come ravishing over me
Please believe, this heart is open wide
I'm sick and tired of lying
So step inside - I won't hide
No more
Please believe, this heart is true tonight
I know you're sick and tired of trying
But you are the one
You are the one
Cut me down to size
Only you can tear me apart - No lies being told tonight
Love me down to size
Even though I broke your heart - Come ravishing over me
