CIRCLE OF CERTAINTY (2020)

Siete años les ha llevado a los germanos Death Comes in Waves tener listo su primer álbum, un álbum bastante extenso, de nueves tema que combina un sonido black metal melódico con algunas secciones de death metal. La portada, en un primer momento deja un tanto descolocado al oyente pero una vez comienza a sonar la intro y da paso al tema "Circle of Certainty" que da título al álbum y que de paso se encarga de sentar las bases de un sonido black con claras influencias clásicas pero que sabe también incorporar algunas texturas más recientes a lo riffs de guitarra que en algunos momentos traen elementos que pueden recordar al death metal. Lo extensos temas, casi todos superiores a lo cinco minutos, encierran un buen número de áridos riffs que encuentran su razón de ser en un equilibrio complejo entre la melodía y la agresividad, desprendiendo odio y un regusto crudo pero sabiendo también traernos buenas melodías en un segundo plano que acaban por trascender al conjunto. Las voces se encargan también de enfocarse en la contundencia con cierto grado de accesibilidad desde la oscuridad que muestran desde el inicio pero sin descuidar facetas como la rabia o al desesperación que afloran para completar el apartado musical y aportar algunos matices más a la propuesta como pueden ser algunas notas de post o progresivo. En definitiva el primer trabajo de los alemanes se centra en un black que sienta sus bases claramente en una faceta bastante reconocible dentro del sonido del género poro con elementos propios que son capaces de ofrecer diversos matices al sonido final del álbum.

1. Intro 01:36   instrumental

2. Circle of Certainty 06:13

Nature, cradle of mankind I express my will to live Dawn of existence I rise up my force Morning of the life My instinct to survive I will rise up my force I will rise up with my instinct to survive Birth of the light I rise up my might Growing of knowledge I bring up my mind Natural laws ever prevail Never deny, never despise Natural laws are the all-might Never refuse, never fight against Flood of feelings I rise up my strength Loss of hope I will not surrender Natural laws ever prevail Never deny, never despise Natural laws are the all-might Never refuse, never fight against The circle has begun The way is not set But with certainty I say That every end is the same Nothing is forever Nothing is made for eternity But the one, the allmighty Circle of nature The Circle of Nature   

3. Kneeling or Solitude 05:15

Do you know the fear that narrows your chest? Do you know the pain of staying alone in solitude? Who decide what is right? Who gave them the might? Why to follow society? Why kneeling to old dogmas? Who is on your side when you‘re crumbled down? Who holds your hand when you‘re laying to die? Feel the compulsion of being devoted To the superior holders of your strings That are implanted through your thoughts Be their puppet! Be their slave! Do you know the fear that infects your head? Do you know the pain that never can be healed? Your vision of the world doesn‘t fit for anyone Your opinion is what no one cares about Are you wise because of this? Is your way really the right? Who is the one that narrows his mind? Who interrupts the natural order? We are all forced to be our own lord To create our minds as we are pleased Do you give up without a fight? Do you stand strong for your right? What is your reason, what is your purpose? Where are you now? Where will you go? Who is the one that narrows his mind? Who interrupts the natural order? We are all forced to be our own lord To create our minds as we are pleased   

4. Of the Host and the Virus 06:34

We came into this world and took our lawfully place We explored, we expanded, we explained We started spreading our word and scripture We receive, we remember, we repeat Some believe that it is our faith To be the superior race That it is our right and obligation To slave this world to us We are the virus and not the host We are the parasites of our dying cell We are the virus and not the host We are the hangman of our era We are the most aggressive disease We will spread! We will reign! We will fall! We are to haughty to reflect ourselves We will see! We will feel! We will fall! Our world has fever the illness tears it down it has enough of us we will not survive Also this circle will close itself the healing will take place We are the virus and not the host We are the parasites of our dying cell We are the virus and not the host We are the hangman of our era   

5. Eternity in Chaos 05:16

Under moonlights shine, I‘m dying in my bed Many thoughts appear, some thankful, some cruel After life of working, teaching and loving My strenght is coming to delayed end After life of hating, I‘m sick, I‘m tired All of this perceptions, I will leave behind All of this corruption; I leave behind All of this greed; I leave behind All of this disease; I leave behind - Forever! All of this weakness; I leave behind All of this falseness; I leave behind All of this body; I leave behind - Forever! Shadows of bitterness; Grabbing, coming forth Spirit of disappointment; Shouting without end Announcing eternity in chaos After life of learning; no wisdom, no fate Only void and empty space; no fear, no hope Shadows of bitterness; Grabbing, coming forth Spirit of disappointment; Shouting without end Announcing eternity in chaos Angles of existence; Lurking through the ether blackness Transform the being; Shelter of tired ones Sleeping beyond matter; Chaos arises from the void Redeemed from the burden of life, no wake, no sleep Released from illusion of time and space Shadows of bitterness; Grabbing, coming forth Spirit of disappointment; Shouting without end Announcing eternity in chaos

7. Was Bleibt... 11:44

Ausweglos, endgültig Doch stets präsent und nah Es löst sich auf mein Sein Es wendt’ sich ab von mir Lässt meinen Körper nur Kalt und blass zurück Die Augen ganz erstarrt Die Ruhe herrscht in mir Mein eisig’ Blick sei nun Auf ewig zur Nacht gewandt Nicht mag ich wahr zu nehm’ Den letzten Schritt muss ich gehn’ Nicht mag ich wahr zu nehm’ Das letzte Urteil ward gefällt Die Leere hat mein Herz Nun ganz und gar erfüllt Die Leere ruft mich heim Lud mich ein zu verweiln’ Kein Friede mehr Kein menschlich’ Schrein’ Kein Gottes Wille mehr Vermag mich noch zu trüben Nur unterlieg’ ich nun Dem uralten Gesetz Dass alles wieder wird Wie es einst war Umgeben von der Dunkelheit Umhüllt vom Mantel der Nacht Erlischt mein Lebenslicht Erlischt mein Lebenslicht Ausweglos, endgültig Doch stets präsent und nah Das Gedenken ist, was bleibt Ist, was bleibt  

8. I Am Enthropy 04:59

Truth that crumbles down your temple Chaos the loss of all systems I am the sanctum that outlast all cell I‘m the destroyer of fictual hope I am the shadow sourrounding all beings I am the death that comes in waves I am enthropy The force that crushes all matter The time that‘s melting away Fire burns your shrines I am destruction I am the law I am the struggle Tear down the obsolete principles Obsolete principles I am the sanctum that outlast all cell I‘m the destroyer of fictual hope I am the shadow sourrounding all beings I am the death that comes in waves The healing of existence The relief of diseased flesh The blackhole that swallows all life The might that feeds the circle I am the law I am the struggle Tear down the obsolete principles Obsolete principles I am the serpent embracing the sphere I am the space that tears apart I am the one that ever becomes That ever becomes  

9. Uprooted 08:52

  Now I am forgotten; Can not cause harm to anyone

No one falls into rememberance; No one stays awake at night

Now I am forever gone; To a place unknown

No narrative left to tell; No more pain no more lies

Now I am blessed with eternal peace

Will not flee; Will not run

There‘s no need to fight; There‘s no need to speak

A whole eternity is waiting just for me

So the curse of life is healed

In time thats passing by

No longer part of this disease

I got nothing to fear; Now my place is here

I still look back to my old world

With tears in my eyes I say these words

But I don‘t miss anything; Left erverything behind

Now I am forgotten; Can not cause harm to anyone

No one falls into rememberance; No one stays awake at night

Now I am forever gone; To a place unknown

No narrative left to tell; No more pain no more lies

Uprooted from the real world; Now I am free not to be

With tears in my eyes I say these words

But I don‘t miss anything; Left erverything behind

Uprooted from the real world; Now I am free not to be

Free not to be
