In the Woods... - 'A Wonderful Crisis' (official audio)

It's another night in front of brainless entertainment
Beautiful people with beautiful problems turning ugly
The apathy has taken its hold and it won't let her go
It's just another night in

Depression takes, it's taking root
It's growing strong, it's taking hold
What a wonderful crisis
Can't let it go, can't turn the tide
Can't shut it off, it takes it's toll
Enjoy atrocious

Self hatred takes, it's taking root
There's something wrong, it can't go on
What a wonderful crisis
Won't let it go, won't turn around
Won't shut it in, embrace the toll
Enjoy atrocious

What remains are echoes of her pain
The hollow sound of her mind breaking
Holding on to any that remains
But even her resilience has an end

The path is clear, just clear as day
It's over soon, just go away
It's a wonderful crisis
The plan is clear, it's taking root
No more mistakes, nowhere to hide
Enjoy glorious

What remains are echoes of her pain
The hollow sound of her mind breaking
Holding on to any that remains
But even her resilience has an end

Depression takes, it's taking root
It's growing strong, it's taking hold
Can't let it go, can't turn the tide
Can't shut it off, it takes it's toll

Draw the line, crimson line
End of the line
What a wonderful crisis

Self hatred takes, it's taking root
There's something wrong, it can't go on
Won't let it go, won't turn around
Won't shut it in, embrace the toll

One straight line, blood red line
End of the line
What a wonderful crisis

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από τέσσερα χρόνια για τους In the Woods... Ο διάδοχος του album "Cease the Day" και έκτος συνολικά ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Νορβηγών avant-garde metallers τιτλοφορείται "Diversum" και κυκλοφόρησε προ ημερών.

Οι In the Woods δημιουργήθηκαν το μακρινό 1991 κυκλοφόρησαν τρεις δίσκους ("Heart of the Ages", "Omnio", "Strange in Stereo"), διέλυσαν το 2000 και επανασυνδέθηκαν προ οκταετίας. Μας συστήνονται κάπως έτσι:

«Conquerors of countless styles and sounds, In the Woods... began in Norway in 1991. With their origins rooted in the early black metal scene, In the Woods... has gone on to craft a diverse and eclectic discography, the haunting atmosphere of their original recordings taking new shape in experimental goth rock, melodic death and doom, and undulating psychedelia.»

Ξεκίνησαν ως black metal μπάντα, αλλά με το διάβα των ετών περιπλανήθηκε σε πιο prog / avant-garde μουσικά μονοπάτια. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει έξι full length albums, τρεις συλλογές, ένα live album, τρία singles και δύο demos...

Δελτίο τύπου: «In The Woods... return with a brand new studio album of avant-garde, progressive black rock & metal managing to deliver an epic masterpiece following untrodden paths and pagan tongue. With the band's new label Soulseller Records and new vocalist Bernt Fjellestad the sails are set out to reach new heights.

In The Woods... set out on this journey a long time ago, and is with “Diversum” once again true to the spirit that is In The Woods… with changes, with difference, with diversity. The result is all that In The Woods… has been, and what the band will be, captured in the absolute unique album that is “Diversum”.»
