ONE LOVE TO LAST (THE STELLAR SPHERE; PROLOGUE (2021)

Primer larga duración para lo que suponemos como one mand band alemana en donde ofrece cuatro extensos temas que perfectamente podrían funcionar como temas instrumentales gracias a la riqueza de los mismos. El álbum se sirve de elementos muy arraigados en el black atmoférico para ir dibujando un paisaje frío y desolado, repleto de elementos como la soledad y un cierto sentimiento de inquietud que se hace más presente cuando las voces hacen acto de presencia en un tono repleto de crudeza y aridez que acentúa la fuerza e intensidad que desprende el plano instrumental. Elementos melódicos también hacen acto de presencia en al mayoría del álbum, costando un tanto discernir su procedencia death o black, pero si capaces de dejar una importante impronta en todo el álbum en forma de evocadores pasajes de guitarras limpias o cuando la propuesta se ve más superada en forma de un legado en segundo plano que acompaña las composiciones. Fruto de la extensión de los temas también podemos descubrir algunos aportes progresivos, más en por el medrar de los temas que por le progresión en si misma de la instrumentación. En definitiva una buena piedra de toque dentro del black de corte atmosférico, que a veces se recrea en exceso en elementos claros y preciosistas, pero que sin embargo encuentra todo su potencial y equilibrio cuando la influencia del black atmosférico cobra protagonismo.

1. Bond of Devotion 11:41

The northern passage opens And lights it’s way to me Winter lays the chain around The wrist of breathing landscape In this I’ll rest forever For all the things I’ve done Three blades in martyr’s chest So she can stay here longer No wish I had was for the wrong one No wish I had was for this belief they preach Moonlight fills her eyes As I kiss her goodbye Cherish her lovely gaze Sweeping over my teary face But no pain I can borrow And torn apart we’ll cry I can’t give up this bond Within my last breath in a sigh Every fond wish I had was for you Every fond wish I had was for us being free All that I had All the love I gave It won’t be a part of me anymore All this devotion I have found in you Will be gone, taken away Oh, why can’t I remain here? I’m weaved in this wreath My sacrifice is for you Please forgive my heart It was yours for all this time The spell of yours Cannot keep me from dying Ostracized I can’t outrun And cruel are the ones claiming deadened charity Every fond wish I had was for you Every fond wish I had was for us to be free All that I had All the love I gave It won’t be a part of me anymore All this devotion I have found in you Will be gone, taken away Oh, why can’t I remain here? Reach out for the stars Strangle the chimes Play the song for the guardians of freedom And bury me in the chain of winter When I lose this battle I’ll be running away Searching the hidden path May the coldness take my life before I hold her tight and the starlight shines On her, on me, and we weep in our arms No silence can bear such hopeless longing No cry can hold so much despair Reflection in her eyes warms my weary heart May this be the last time They take the brightest treasure Tear the strongest bond apart I kiss her goodbye  

2. Path Through the Snow 13:16

  Blind I’m drawing my dearest picture

In snow

The last thing

I give in

The trail is so cold, I’d never come through

My hands kept this warmth as long as they could stand the frost

Stinging and flowing in my vessels

My body’s congealing

Skylight, what do you promise in the next days?

When the candle has burned to dust

What do you promise before your fall?

When you’re caught up in singularity

Skylight, what do you promise in the next days?

When the candle has burned away

What do you promise before your fall?

At the end of your own days

Someday a time has come for us

We will lead our fate

Until the end of the world

The last light has passed away

The corridors grow higher

Disobedience they will punish

For the good and worth to love

Oh ruler, leave me, leave me all alone

No more sorrow, pain and regret

Oh ruler, leave me, step back from your throne

No more wailing in the depths of mine

Where’s the wide path through the snow?

Where’s the wide path through the snow?

In the past I saw my lifeline swaying

But with a clear direction

I the future, straight ahead

Ending where my feet become weary

I see my world bleeding, bleeding

Your warmth leaving me

Now I’m miles away

Reach the midnight haze

Feels like the decay of mine

Without you

May the moon guide me

Tangled up in this

Destiny of mine

Asking why the end is near

I only did what was right, for us…

Thy silent appearance

So clear in my head

And I wish I still could rest

With you beside your bed

This haze feels like a grave

Swallowing memory and time

Freezing heart and soul

Oh ruler, leave me, leave me all alone

No more sorrow, pain and regret

Oh ruler, leave me, step back from your throne

No more wailing in the depths of mine

Where’s the wide path through the snow?

Where’s the wide path through the snow?

A time has come for me

I will open up the gate

To the end of the world

The last light has passed away

But I still feel hellfire

Seems like it ends here

Surrounded with their torches

Oh skylights

Tell me where’s my way

Half-frostbitten, facing this tragedy

Will I ever come home again?

See her smiling, breathe her scent

Looking back onto this misery

No turnaround anymore

3. The Trail to Nothingness 10:16

 Treason, deceit

The instruments of greed and might

Once forged, once adapted

The truth gets lost behind

Value, worth

The constructs of life and death

The borders of sins

Only existent in your head

No breath of clean air anymore

The smoke of fire, it’s secret lore

So familiar, like I was once here

On the pedestal, the gate to eternity

The season, soon over

Last flake of snow

Falling between the raindrops

Melted slowly, losing structure

Like myself, my fate

And so, there’s my way

On the trail to nothingness

Far from any skylight

Far from any ache

My body guides my spirit

To the celestial shore

So as the flames take all of me

There will be a distant dream

Soon I’ll reach the other side

The side of forgotten souls

Still watching from above

From the inside, from below

Heat surrounds my eyes

I smell the burning wood

Feel my transition

Out of the ashes

Passing into the unknown

Into the unknown void

Take away the wounds I carry

All along this night the soreness never left me

I see you there in mourning with your eyes still shining

My morning star, I only weep for you…

4. Morning Star 05:29   

One more nightfall

And the winter leaves

So my burden becomes a gift

Enslaved to be set free

Thy silent appearance

So clear before my eyes

Is soothing my heart

And my senses

Disguised

In the veils of my longings

Time will pass

Tempting my reveries

May I be lost

In my sense of solace

I have found in her

My morning star

You dance with the night and the sky

Please take my hand and melt my frost away

Don’t run out of reach

Never believe your suffering remains unseen
