Вот ещё одна группа, играющая мой любимый мелодэт  Прошу любить и жаловать.

Norther

Frozen Angel

We were together as one  All that we had can’t be undone  Our love fading, now it’s gone  We die thinking so it’s goooone  Now death invites us  Raises above and binds us  Awww ... till death unites us  Alone we die, my frozen Angel  Alone we fade away, from this world  Alone you die, my frozen Angel  Alone you fade away, from – this – worrrrld!  We were together as one,  All that we had can’T be undone  Our love fading, the feeling is gone  One time thinking Now it’s doooone  Alone we die, my frozen angel  Alone we fade away, from this world  Alone you die, my frozen Angel  Alone you fade away, from this world  Solos...  Alone we die my frozen angel  Alone we fade away, from this world  Alone you die, my frozen angel  Alone you fade away, from this world Nothing to do, nothing to say  fade away  My aaaangeeeeel

Вот наступил долгожданный для множества фанов j-rock'а день. День, отмеченный красным фломастером у меня в календарике. Сегодня знаменитейшая группа Dir en Grey выпустила свой новый сингл! Ня, товарищи!!! ^___^ Заглавная песня продолжает путь психоделической тяжести, начатый на Marrow of a Bone, а вот припев вполне в духе чуть ранних работ.

ЗЫ: По ссылке вы найдёте превью на клип к этой же песне 

Dir En Grey

Hageshisa to Kono Mune no Naka de Karamituita Shakunetsu no Yami

Пока без лирики...

Лично от себя советую всем поклонникам мелодэта. Кое-кто считает, что они схожи с другими металличными финнами - убергруппой Children Of Bodom. "..в обман вводит всё тот же восхитительный мелодизм, отличающий команды Скандинавского полуострова, да ураганный темп композиций, а также тяжесть. Но С.О.В. – это прежде всего блеск и соревнование гитар, ударных и клавиш, яростные, безумные мелодические построения, и нет такой краски, такого музыкального оттенка, который не использовал бы Alexi Laiho сотоварищи. KALMAH же – сама строгость, инструменты слиты в едином звуке, и клавиши, и гитары, и ударные вместе повторяют все головокружительные мелодические переходы..." - так о них отзываются на Metallibrary. Ценим? 

Heroes To Us

Old prophet's land -a battlefield Of non-believers in a violent rage A declaration of human rights a pretext For maintenance of a new world order Above all written laws a growth concept Created by the patriot of the civilized world Rearmament -Welfare state Disarmament - Non-member state Free market economy a consequence Of military needs -loss of lives Human rights activists political pawn in a game Nothing Can they do without state subsidies A gift of today`s world Heroes to us, heroes to us, heroes to us Heroes to us, heroes to us, heroes to us Production at any price Admiration of those who earn With blood on their hands We will never learn A gift of today`s world Heroes to us, heroes to us, heroes to us Heroes to us, heroes to us, heroes to us

Как насчёт очередной порции металкора а-ля Нагоя ? 

DEATHGAZE

Мдяяя.... Мой блог уже покрылся пылью и оброс паутиной ... Пора приводить его в порядок  Начну с моей любимой мелодэт группы из Мекки данного жанра - Гётеборга

Dark Tranquillity

Метал и подсолнухи, хмм, оригинальная композиция...

Hours Passed In Exile

What if some things are destined to failure? What if some things are never meant to be? What if someone never sees? What if someone never opens? What if somehow we are different? Though I never claimed to be right Give to me the benefit of doubt I brought you fires That you put out I brought you fires For I cannot be without I came with sadness But this my shattered heart can't bear What of the times in exile? What of the hours passed? What if touches seem too trivial? You can never tell me I'm wrong A song I've heard so long I brought you fires That you put out I brought you fires For I cannot be without I came with sadness But this my shattered heart can't bear I came in madness So this my shattered heart can't bear My shattered heart won't bear So what if healing takes forever? So what if time is meant for others? So what is left is but a shatter And what is broken can't be whole What is broken can't be whole again I brought you fires That you put out I brought you fires For I cannot be without I came with sadness But this my shattered heart can't bear

Хоть на дворе светит  ярко солнце, я пощу песню о вампирах написанную признанными мастерами готик-метала - Moonspell. Песня начинается медленно и таинственно, словно сам вампир, крадущийся под сенью ночи, подбираясь к жертве... и вонзает клыки в нежную кожу шеи замечтавшейся девушки, слизывает гранатовые струйки крови, стекающие из маленьких порезов... и теперь он размышляет, стоит ли сделать эту девушку своей... (прошу не обращать внимания графоманские потуги вашего покорного слуги )

Moonspell 

Vampiria

Vampiria, you are my destiny  My only Love and true destiny  Vampiria...  Youre a beast, evil one  Above your head lays a Star  In your heart is buried the jewel  Of a Serpent who wished to die  Your red long tongue has her poison  And you will spread it as you breed  In a unique Transylvanian dream  Conceiving the creed of all creeds  Vampiria, fly Vampiria  In your eye burn, defying  All those who in silence sleep  In a city once named Desire  Dreaming with the entombed dear  The lady has fallen in a blossom  Spread far away by undesirable winds  To females conspiring in gloom  Hiding your pearls from the pigs  So open your arms !  They were shaped as wings  A serenade of revenge draw in your lips  The sombre hill youre staying in  Is now defined  And your Star had start to shine  Depart now on your bright wings  The world envy  The skies have always seduced you  Precious Queen  And you know your time has come  To fly away with Me, so far...

Вампирия – ты моя судьба, Единственная любовь и предназначение. Вампирия.  Ты – зверь, ты – зло, Звезда покоится над твоей головой, Твоё сердце драгоценно, Змея, жаждущая умереть, И в твоём алом рту её яд, И он передаётся всей твоей породе, Зарождаю веру всех вер.  Вампирия, лети.  В твоих горящих очах неповиновение Всех тех, кто спокойно спит В городе, чьё имя Желание. Мечтая с погребённой милой.  Она словно расцвела, Расправив свои крылья, Чтобы женщины устраивали заговор во мраке, Пряча твой жемчуг от свиней.  Так раскрой свои объятия! Они так похожи на крылья, Серенада мести на твоих губах. Ты стоишь на тёмном холме, Ты никому не повинуешься.  Обходя на своих светлых крыльях Мир Зависти. Небеса всегда соблазняли тебя, Прекрасная Королева. И ты знаешь – придёт твой час Улететь со мной далеко.

Нам, людям, не дано услышать пение ангелов (при жизни, по крайней мере). Вместо этого мы слушаем нежный голос Шарон ден Адель из Within Temptation. Их музыка - это симфоническая сказка, мелодии которой словно проходят через каждую частичку твоего тела, оставляя за собой тихое восхищение.... (и прочая и прочая... я бы мог написать ещё больше пафосных дифирамбов, но мне надо отправится в Девиант-лес, собирать в свою корзиночку ягодки и орешки аниме-арты   )   

Within Temptation

Jillian (I'd Give My Heart)

I've been dreaming for so long, to find a meaning to understand. The secret of life, why am I here to try again? Will I always, will you always see the truth when it stares you in the face? Will I ever, will I never free myself by breaking these chains? I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way. I've been living for so long, many seasons have passed me by. I've seen kingdoms through ages rise and fall, I've seen it all. I've seen the horror, I've seen the wonders happening just in front of my eyes. Will I ever, will I never free myself by making it right? I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way. Jillian our dream ended long ago. All our stories and all our glory I held so dear. We won't be together for ever and ever, no more tears. I'll always be here until the end. Jillian, no more tears Jillian, no more tears I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul. I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way.

Yaaayyyyy!!!!  \m/ ^__^ \m/ Брутальный анимешник в полном восторге. У группы одного из его любимейших музыкантов, несравненного Питера Тагтгрена-самы, Hypocrisy, вышел новый альбом!! Слушаем ;)

Hypocrisy

Hang Him High

Awaiting your sentence Locked up in your hell Your crime will now be tested By the jury representing Death Bitterness inside you All you feel is hate Not for the vicious crime But for the victims you kept alive Incision, precision, remove the limps The pulse beats on, the body won't turn cold I stab, I drill, my intention's clear My hands they squeeze, but the bastard won't die Hang him high No remorse for the crimes you've done Hang him high Blood on your hands won't wash away Waiting on deathrow Staring at the walls The cell is closing up on me Memories I can't defeat I stab, I drill, my intention's clear My hands they squeeze, but the bastard won't die Hang him high No remorse for the crimes you've done Hang him high Blood on your hands won't wash away A scarred and abused soul Tries to cope with life Hiding in your twisted game He was dead before he started to feel alive Now justice will take its toll Hang him high No remorse for the crimes you've done Hang him high Blood on your hands won't wash away

По просьбе Dark Witch выкладываю кое-что потяжелее. Самая популярная блэк-метал группа (и в этом вся их проблема) Эта песня - одна из любимых ихних композиций. Тут есть просто ураганная скорость и вто же время присутствует мелодичность в некоторых моментах

Dimmu Borgir

Kings Of The Carnival Creation

Incarnated marvels simplified Effects from such a disconsolate kind Impotence of the once so perfect living Erase and rewind Stand rigid for the next battle Peace means reloading your guns The love for life is all hatred in disguise A carnival creation with masks undone In search for the guidelines to the gateways of sin  through mires of misanthropy with wrath in mind Sophistication as cruelty and perfection as virulent truth Confidently dawned, to pick the best of enemies An abyss womb stretched wide open, exposed to retaliate [chorus:] With the stigma feasting upon your flesh I wish you well Thorns from the fountains of fate licking your lepered skin Worshipped by anyone's mass on our planet hell What on earth possessed you Consuming illusions made from hysteria and swallowed tongues Devoured by doubt, conducting arts of misconception Testimonial sufficiency declaring numbness of all perceptions Glance into the blackness hidden beneath your surface And enjoy the suffering, sanity drained in disrespect With such bedevilled faith in good, subsequently trusting evil Next step for mankind will be the last seasons in sin [Chorus] Left are the kings of the carnival creation Carrying out the echoes of the fallen Sense the withering eternity as it fades away The ultimate graceless voyage of all times Only death will be guarding your angels, silently  Cripples joining arms in clamour Institutionalized for the rebirth, the herd will be hunted

Вот я всё не могу понять, что играют эти шведы: Мodern Melodic Death Metal, или металкор? Даже в сравнении с другой MMDM группой, In Flames, их музыка несколько более сдвинута к металкору. Но все равно звучат они хорошо. Слушаем!

Sonic Syndicate

Denied

There is nothing left for me There is nothing left for you There is nothing left at all A wasteland of my mind Don't think you ever will see Don't think you ever will know How much I actually cared About everything we shared Why the heck did you lie then? Why in hell did you bring me down? Don't you realize? No one gets out of this place alive Hasn't been screaming all these years Just to see the world crashing around me Maybe this life is overrated But I won't let the world burn around me A situation like this, should never exist Then why are we out of control I see smoke from the eden fire Watch it going higher and higher You pulled me up from the dream Let's compare scars you and I You are always on my mind I will never leave you behind You broke my engagement to Solitude, and made me threw away The ring of retaliation Maybe this life is overrated But I won't let the world burn around me A situation like this, should never exist Then why are we out of control I see smoke from the eden fire Watch it going higher and higher Hasn't been screaming all these years Just to see the world crashing around me Maybe this life is overrated But I won't let the world burn around me A situation like this, should never exist Then why are we out of control A situation like this, should never exist Then why are we out of control I see smoke from the eden fire Watch it going higher and higher A situation like this, should never exist Then why are we out of control I see smoke from the eden fire Watch it going higher and higher
