| 1. Yearning For The Sun
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Алена Гиндина)
I dream again.
Nothing but black rain.
It's so cold.
It's clouding my way.
Death stands by me
In eternity.
Skies are crying.
I'm fading away.
Should I join this cry?
Now I can't deny -
We could fly.
But who was t |

Лет тридцать назад в социалистической Венгрии была очень распространена такая практика: музыканты известной рок-группы создавали творческий альянс с поп-певицей, не только аккомпанируя ей в студии и на концертах, но и сочиняя для нее практически весь репертуар. В наше время, как оказалось, традиции венгров чтут в Туле, поскольку альянс музыкантов группы Forgive-Me-Not и певицы Ольги Романовой построен именно по мадьярской схеме: Михаил Гуз сочинил для альбома “Without You” всю музыку и сыграл гитарные партии, Михаил Карасев и Алена Гиндина помогли с текстами, а Виктор Куковеров взял на себя ответственность за бэк-вокал. Неудивительно, что получившийся в результате такого сотрудничества альбом “Without You” лучше всего описать как «Forgive-Me-Not с женским вокалом». Правда, некоторые различия все же есть – альбом представляет собой романтическо-среднетемповую сторону Forgive-Me-Not, а более электронное и модное звучание явно выдает попытку выйти на аудиторию, слушающую Evanescence и Within Temptation. Не знаю, получится ли у музыкантов коммерческий прорыв, но в творческом плане это несомненная удача. Хитов на “Without You” на порядок больше, чем на знаменитейшем диске Evanescence “Fallen”, а Ольга Романова, обладая прекрасным голосом, умудряется звучать одновременно и стильно, и уникально. Другой вопрос, что меланхолическо-романтическая грань творчества Forgive-Me-Not не у всех является самой любимой, и мне лично на “Without You” больше всех понравился трек “The Game” – самая энергичная песня диска. Также остается открытым вопрос, что все-таки побудило музыкантов создать этот необычный альянс, но это, конечно, не самое главное, особенно если результат так хорош. Релиз мирового уровня, как, впрочем, и все записи Forgive-Me-Not. (Диск предоставлен компанией Metal Agen/Soyuz) |

Проект музыкантов Forgive-Me-Not с женским «оперным» вокалом. Русским группам не достает лавров Nightwish, Within Temptation и других подобных команд. Сама музыка представляет собой готический металл с уклоном в рок, смахивая на музыку туляков. Плотные гитары, и вставленные кое-где соло партии, остальные инструменты звучат как надо, но музыканты переборщили с сэмплами и непонятными эффектами. Вокал Ольги звучит как-то странно, ощущение, что девушка поет сама не зная о чем, может, лучше было бы написать русские тексты, тогда эмоциональности в голосе было бы больше, да и высокие ноты берутся Ольгой с трудом. Похрамывает произношение и проглатываются некоторые буквы в словах. На бэке Виктор Куковеров, который спел в своем стиле, хотя здесь бы подошел все же гроулинг, а не чистый мужской вокал. По мне из этой музыки с ее мелодиями получился бы первоклассный готик/дум с «красавицей и чудовищем», но выбор музыкантов пал на то, что они сделали и это их законное право. Запись и сведение на уровне, оформление альбома в готическом стиле и имидж вокалистки должны работать на приобретение фанатов-готов. В общем, достойная работа для русской команды в данном стиле, тем более это дебютный альбом. Так что 7/10. |

Ну, да! Мировой уровень, как же! И раньше работы Forgive-Me-Not не отличались чем-то интересным, повторяя уже пройденное большинством евро-поп-готик групп, а тут ещё с целью огрести бабок они решили создать творческий альянс с некоей Ольгой Романовой. Сама-то девушка ничего даже, но лучше бы она не пела здесь, а продолжала свою поп-карьеру... В результате мы получили ничем не примечательную работу (я бы даже сказал поделку) на стыке позднего H.I.M. и Nightwish (а моё отношение к Nightwish на этом сайте известно). Ноль запоминающихся ходов, ноль интересных стихов, ноль хороших вокализов. Вот честно, это просто русская попса с гитарами, мелодии, по крайней мере, на том же уровне. 2 балла им добавлю за буклет и качество записи, да и девушка, повторюсь, симпатичнее многих немецких готичных певичек...
С уважением... |

Just another day,
Just another night
Of despair
Without your smile
I need your flame.
I dream again.
Nothing but black rain.
And it's cold.
It's clouding my way.
You were my Sun
And you're still the one.
I can trust.
But this is the end.
You can take me higher.
But it saves me no more.
Don't you feel this bittersweet
Taste of my tears?
I'm just trying to live.
But I know it kills me.
Cause my soul is burnt to ashes
By your fire.
You can take me higher.
But it saves me no more.
Don't you feel this bittersweet
Taste of my tears?
I'm just trying to live.
But I know it kills me.
Cause my soul is burnt to ashes
By your fire.
2. Living In Me
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Михаил Карасев)
I believe in devotion.
You could kill my emotion
Never again.
I could live for the silence
Breaking up frozen violence
The light of my life
Living in me.
The light of my life
Just living in me.
Lost in my eyes spirits above me.
Lost in the cries always in need.
All of my lies murder the lonely
Frozen tears.
We could walk to the sunrise
With no distant to love
The light of my life
Living in me.
The light of my life
Just living in me.
Lost in my eyes spirits above me.
Lost in the cries always in need.
All of my lies murder the lonely
Frozen tears.
The rain of loving tears inside.
It's killing all the dreams.
The darkest night's deep in mind.
It's always out of time.
Lost in my eyes spirits above me.
Lost in the cries always in need.
All of my lies murder the lonely
Frozen tears.
Lost in my eyes spirits above me.
Lost in the cries always in need.
All of my lies murder the lonely
Frozen tears.
3. Lost Sunrise
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Михаил Карасев)
I can hardly wait.
I believe I'll see your eyes.
The plastic face behind
Takes me on the other side.
It makes me feel the love no more.
Feel you,
There's no time for sorrow
Shadows move around
I need to see your eyes.
Feel you,
There's no need to follow
Take me out of time
I need to see your eyes.
I can hardly wait
I believe I'll see your smile
Wearing dirty wings
You can take me to the sunrise..
It makes me feel the love no more.
Feel you,
There's no time for sorrow
Shadows move around
I need to see your eyes.
Feel you,
There's no need to follow
Take me out of time
I need to see your eyes.
Feel you,
There's no time for sorrow
Shadows move around
I need to see your eyes.
Feel you,
There's no need to follow
Take me out of time
I need to see your eyes.
4. The Skin Of The Universe
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Михаил Карасев)
My reflection
Broken mirrors
No connection to myself.
Deadly sunshine
Hope of being
Out of mind you call a shell.
There're no feelings
Just emotions
Days are empty about to fall.
Lonely towers of long mistakes back
Back in times
I can call.
Staring
At the skin of the universe
You don't belong.
Praying
You can blame yourself for mysteries
And fall along.
My reflection
Broken mirrors
No connection to myself.
Deadly sunshine
Hope of blistered smiling
At the mind you call a shell..
Staring
At the skin of the universe
You don't belong.
Praying
You can blame yourself for mysteries
And fall along.
Staring
At the skin of the universe
You don't belong.
Praying
You can blame yourself for mysteries
And fall along.
5. Reach The Sky
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Михаил Карасев)
Why are they waiting for me?
I'd like to know how we can reach the sky.
Wind kisses my furied soul.
They don't appall my immaculate world.
Why are they calling for me
On my big way to the deafening sky?
Sleep will not come to this world.
It's all alone I shall follow them all.
Sweetness is coming inside out.
Vengeance these days is not allowed.
We have lost all desires.
We fly any way.
We will sure reach the sky
Lighting my way.
Sleep will not come to this world.
It's all alone I shall follow them all.
Sweetness is coming inside out.
Vengeance these days is not allowed.
Sweetness is coming inside out.
Vengeance these days is not allowed.
6. Let Me Go
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Виктор Куковеров)
Fake it, morning's sweeping before the sun.
Faithful, now you're talking like everyone.
Close your eyes make believe to be always young
and proud.
It's sufficed to release all lovefools so young
and proud.
Cause it is, how I feel.
Fade away you belong to tragic fits of my insanity.
Close your eyes and let me go.
And I say, I have never been a part of your reality.
But I know you'll never mind.
Lonely, on you go to destroy my dreams.
Sorrow runs the show is not what it feels.
Close your eyes make believe to be always young
and proud.
It's sufficed to release all lovefools so young
and proud.
Cause it is, how I feel.
Fade away you belong to tragic fits of my insanity.
Close your eyes and let me go.
And I say, I have never been a part of your reality.
But I know you'll never mind.
Without you I can't breathe!
Without you I can't feel...
Fade away you belong to tragic fits of my insanity.
Close your eyes and let me go.
And I say, I have never been a part of your reality.
But I know you'll never mind.
7. Taste Of Shame
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Виктор Куковеров)
I fill nothing but fire that in your eyes.
When you look up in sorrow of gentle crimes.
Give me one more day of despair
I get the night of cry.
You can swallow my grief.
Ther's no time to believe.
Leave all your tears behind
You know what you have to know
Let me shape up your mind like I did it before.
Deliver me from hate
Love still reasoning your life
And the hardest thing to understand is your lie.
Your embrace all your memories of my life.
Taste of shame on your lips and it's full of light.
Give me one more day of despair
I get the night of cry
But I'm craving for more
Yes I'm fooling myself
Leave all your tears behind
You know what you have to know
Let me shape up your mind like I did it before.
Deliver me from hate
Love still reasoning your life
And the hardest thing to understand is your lie.
Leave all your tears behind
You know what you have to know
Let me shape up your mind like I did it before.
Deliver me from hate
Love still reasoning your life
And the hardest thing to understand is your lie.
8. Without You
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Михаил Карасев)
Saline hours
Make me feel dishonest
Leaving the world.
I'm leaving alone.
Future's empty.
It's killing the moments,
Driving the world,
Well, baby, so long.
Passion minutes overruled.
Melting seasons ever doomed.
Never felt mornings.
Never had silence cry.
Never caught tears.
Never had fears allied.
Unbreak visions of hopeless
Voices of godness and
The stars will fall down where
The last men stand.
Little hours
Make sleep up to ending,
Saying goodnight.
I'm feeling all right.
Silent sounds
Search for the landing
Are ready to fight,
Soul screaming tonight.
Passion minutes overruled.
Melting seasons ever doomed.
Never felt mornings.
Never had silence cry.
Never caught tears.
Never had fears allied.
Unbreak visions of hopeless
Voices of godness and
The stars will fall down where
The last men stand.
Never felt mornings.
Never had silence cry.
Never caught tears.
Never had fears allied.
Unbreak visions of hopeless
Voices of godness and
The stars will fall down where
The last men stand.
9. The Game
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Алена Гиндина)
You made of cold.
I made of burning stars.
It's just a game
Strange game of pain and scars
Don't trust my lips.
You'll never win this war.
You're my sweetest sin
So feel regrets no more!
I see your coming fall... this game has no end.
My promises are shades on wet sand.
Don't be so dogging shy to join my delight.
Stay just my only love... for tonight.
The dream comes true.
The dream has secret name.
You can't find trace.
I'll never be the same.
In all your thoughts
In every spark of light
You can feel my breath
My spirit's shining bright
I see your coming fall... this game has no end.
My promises are shades on wet sand.
Don't be so dogging shy to join my delight.
Stay just my only love... for tonight.
This temptation's everywhere.
I can feel it in the air.
Look I'm losing all my strengths and I don't care!
I see your coming fall... this game has no end.
My promises are shades on wet sand.
Don't be so dogging shy to join my delight.
Stay just my only love... for tonight.
10. My Fragile Winter Dream
(музыка - Михаил Гуз, слова - Алена Гиндина)
You see, I'm dying
For this crystal temple of dreams
Melting my crying
In black waters of frozen streams.
I've to be stronger
But I feel your fingers are cold.
These shadows are like you.
I can't see your world.
Winter will bury with the snow my pain
You've never shared my sorrow, you'll never
share it again.
Dark is so deep and there's no sun to shine.
But in this fragile dream you're mine…
Mirrors are broken,
Stars are dead, they can't give us light.
Fear of darkness…
I wish you could trust my insight.
I've to be stronger
But I feel your fingers are cold.
These shadows are like you.
I can't see your world.
Winter will bury with the snow my pain.
You've never shared my sorrow, you'll never
share it again.
Dark is so deep and there's no sun to shine.
But in this fragile dream you're mine…
Burned by your love and hate I pray:
"Please, let me out! Let me...stay!"
Winter will bury with the snow my pain.
You've never shared my sorrow, you'll never
share it again.
Dark is so deep and there's no sun to shine.
But in this fragile dream you're mine…
