about

Intrøspect perform an intimate, stripped-back rendition of ‘Nyx’, the closing track from their debut EP ‘Ad Astra’.

This live recording is Intrøspect’s final venture in the ‘Ad Astra’ EP cycle, ahead of the release of their Sophomore EP ‘Midnight Sun’ in early 2021.

Full live performance video available on the Intrøspect You Tube channel.

lyrics

The sun hardly rises anymore
The days are getting shorter
But the nights drag on and on
Over frozen waste I journey alone
Into the unknown

The guilt comes crashing down
Sinking lower than low on nail-bed of hate
Burning arrows of doubt
Set me ablaze

How deep can you go?
How profound is your dread in this fathomless valley of woe?
I never felt so alone
So far from home

Those peaks cut the sun out of the sky
These woods choked the light and there’s no way out in sight
From the pain we grow

How deep can you go?
How profound is your dread at the foot of the mountain of shame
I learned the meaning of strength and I touched that inner flame

I was swallowed by the ocean, sinking down and down
I reached the base of those depths and I’ve got my scars
I had to dredge the depths of hell to touch the stars
To touch the stars
To touch the stars

Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic
by The Ocean

supported by 4 fans who also own “NYX (Stripped) - LIVE”

J'admire les groupes capables de suivre une feuille de route déterminée (et encore plus de s'y tenir) : Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic aura droit à un successeur qui sortira dans deux ans — un délai qui paraît généreux. De l'autre côté, créer quelque chose d'aussi extraordinaire que ce premier volet en aussi peu de temps, c'est surhumain. Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic est sombre et cataclysmique, The Ocean revient sur un post-metal oppressant sans être dénué de grâce. The Ocean offre toujours plus ! Jordan Vauvert
