spring day blue as youthful tears 2004
2015 a soft crystalline river, soft to touch, soft crying eyes and soft whimpering voice
alone in such a small place in such a big way
hoping for your sophia hand
i want to be mid 2000s spring day
of a delicate soft sun as burning as our perfect smiles
perfectly dreaming and playing in the grass
green as the coloring mind
bright as youthful feminine laughter
i want to be this happy
and be beyond time
beyond tolerance
and brimming in purity
i hold a little light in between my hands
as you fly i wish upon your fluttering magic
let me find the angelic touch
and please be happy
please be happy
please be happy damian
i want to be happy

Bring me to the water
You are not to blame
I love you and I am sorry
Castles in the sky are bound to fall one day
But they won't rob me of my joy
I will protect myself, this child within me
There is a forgiveness I am yearning for
But I understand if I never hear it
We will eventually let go of this pain that we carry
This is the sound of a love unprecedented
Bring me to the water
I love you and I am sorry

Laisser Vivre Les Squelettes
by Daitro
Every record Daitro has made is the epitome and pinnacle of DIY screamo. They are truly an inspiration, and beyond that some of the most talented, emotive, and viscerally moving artists ever.

Night of Eternal Darkness (NP-XIII)
by Mäleficentt
supported by 4 fans who also own “Ataraxy”
An outstanding album of which you will not become tired. It is hard to compete with the pure black joy of this record, I haven't had that much fun since "Drudenfuß" by Urfaust, and that was just a single song. Refreshing and real. Superb screams, some serious folly in those fast riffs, and melodies you want to etch in your intestines. Permeated by a mad drive and a vibe of jolly gloom and cheerful aggression, this record is a very special gem and a new favourite of mine. Not one dull moment.

Black Line
by Respire
Toronto band Respire deliver a post-hardcore tour de force on the largest scale possible, orchestrally rich and incessantly uncompromising.
