Eric Wagner - 'Maybe Tomorrow' (lyric video)

On the road I had to take
To where i’m supposed to be
Countless wounds that pay no debt
Designed just for me

Where will I be this time tomorrow
If I die today
Will you remember I was even here
By the end of the day
Maybe tomorrow i will love again

Had to try and find myself
Oh what sorrow that it brings
Along the way I saw we are
The soul of all good things

Where will I be this time tomorrow
If I die today
Will you remember I was even here
By the end of the day
Maybe tomorrow I will love me again

When this journey is finally over
I will rest my weary head
And dream not for today
But a quiet place instead
Where the world and all of its colors
Take your breath away


Ο δίσκος του Eric Wagner 'In The Lonely Light Of Mourning'
Ο Eric Theodore Wagner γεννήθηκε στις 24 Απριλίου του 1959 κι απεβίωσε στις 22 Αυγούστου 2021. Θεωρείται (και είναι) από τις εμβληματικές μορφές του doom metal και τον συναντάμε - ακούμε στους Trouble, στους The Skull, στους Blackfinger και στους Lid. Έναν μήνα πριν το μοιραίο είχε παραδώσει "ολοκληρωμένο" δίσκο στην εταιρεία Cruz Del Sur Music υπό τον τίτλο "In The Lonely Light Of Mourning", ο οποίος θα δει το φως της δημοσιότητας τον προσεχή Μάρτη...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Recorded at Alpha Sound Services and Aardvark Recording, “In The Lonely Light Of Mourning” was completed and delivered to Cruz Del Sur Music a month before Eric’s untimely passing.

Initially scheduled for a November 2021 release, Cruz Del Sur Music - in cooperation with Eric’s manager, Mike Smith - agreed to move the release date to March 2022 to give it the attention it deserves. The solo endeavor - a longtime goal of Eric’s - serves as a fitting testament to one of doom metal’s most respected voices.

Eric tapped former TROUBLE/current BLACKFINGER drummer David Snyder to help him assemble the album’s eight cuts. Along the way, Eric brought in some of his favorite musicians as guests - including past and present members of TROUBLE, BLACKFINGER, THE SKULL, LID, PENTAGRAM, DEATH ROW and PLACE OF SKULLS.

According to Snyder, the origins for “Maybe Tomorrow” had been kicking around for quite some time.

The pre-chorus part was definitely influenced by Chuck Robinson’s old band, THIS TORTURED SOUL which at that time, I had the pleasure of playing second guitar for a few shows,” he says. “That influenced things for sure. The verses and descending single note parts were Eric’s suggestions and the main riff was originally just single notes. And, just before recording, Eric wanted it heavier, so I added the low droning open note and asked what he thought and in true Eric form, he calmly said, ‘That’s it. It’s a jam.’

“On the first rough mixes you can hear him say it when the song started while he did the vocals, which definitely brought a smile every time I heard it,
” Snyder continues. “The songs’ style ended up being a cool full-circle thing with Chuck and I and being fans of Eric’s music, who greatly influenced our own styles. Add in Lothar Keller’s stunning solo and Ron Holzner’s badass bass and it rounded the whole track out rather well, I have to say.”

It’s very interesting hearing this tune now that Eric has gone to the other side,” adds Keller. “Call it premonition or whatever someone’s take on it is - you can hear it in his voice and it will definitely hit you. I am honored to have been a part of Eric’s last album and his legacy will continue to live on in the hearts of many!”

The aforementioned Robinson played a vital role on “The Lonely Light Of Mourning”. Robinson wrote “Isolation” and “Wish You Well” and co-wrote “Rest In Peace” with Snyder. He also played rhythm guitars on every song except “If He Lost It All” and played bass on “Wish You Well”. “The groove and vibe on ‘Maybe Tomorrow’ is insane!” says Robinson.

It’s just a killer riff with great drive. Dave is such a great remember. I remember Eric was very adamant how he wanted the feel to be. Eric’s lyrics were so personal to him. He was a master with words, hidden meanings and messages. Only he knew for sure...”»
