spildprodukt From NIN-ish industrial over "Ultra" era Depeche Mode to Björk and 90s trip hop, the influences are numerous and treated with love and respect, amalgamating them into something new, yet somehow familiar.

On a personal note "Somatized" brought back so many memories from a time in my life I don't often look back on, and for that I'm so very grateful.

An absolute blast to listen to! Favorite track: Physical Cynical (feat. Arianna Quintiliani).

Liza Borodinova Art there are so many feelings and emotions this albums induces. confusion, interest, uncertainty, pleasure, forbidden and something really deep. a true work of art. so rare these days.

P.S.occasionally I had this song Lulling Waves playing simultaneously on my computer but with a slight delay somehow and (her) part lay down perfectly with (him) part. try it yourself Favorite track: Falling Remembering.

Riffmaster General at first I was like, ah, sounds like NIN. then mmmm interesting, reminds me of Federal Prisoner and all those experimental tracks of tDEP, then oh shit this kid have some aces up his sleeve and finally I'm just speechless how epic this album is. best thing I've heard for a very long time Favorite track: Lulling Waves.

Kochan ok, I'll be damned if this guy won't go places with his music. it is ridiculously great if not genius. every new song outperform the previous. or maybe I'm just too emotional. but... man, this is A VERY GOOD MUSIC

(her) There has been a day from which many people have lost themselves That day marked the end of usual days The clouds, an anomaly The anomaly, our new normality No rain, no light No difference between day and night Together under grey skies (him) Wake up at dawn when the sun never rises and speak to the stars when the stars never shine (her) They began to talk about a strange and extreme form of meteoropathy Sadness increases Panic attacks Apathy grows Sexuality is compulsive, rotten, lifeless and emptied of any kind of love Filled bellies and stillborn babies A drastic reduction in human life on earth The birth of death Your face, no longer lit by the sun I still remember that day as the day I stopped loving you I tried to speak, I couldn't That day marked the end of usual days

You woke up with your body exposed People coming and going in the cold blindness Surrounded by a thousand eyes, a thousand lies And bad paradigms Maybe they got the key to open the cage you're closed in Or maybe they don't care It feels like the end of the world but it goes on and on And won't change We are slowly dying from birth Got no time You're asking yourself what will happen Afterglass How you gonna see the stars tonight? How you gonna find a reason to fight? I'll keep you safe from stupid lives In my cubic suicide of mind
3.
Justify another lie Get ready to make me collapse in that game Neutralize Justify The reason you keep victimizing yourself I'm the cause and consequence of unknown and well hidden mistakes I'm the guide of your mind The only thing that can stop your decay But you'll never change In the name of the game All your rebel thoughts are still frozen in a frame There's a little crack I can see in the glass Trying to scream again but nobody's gonna hear Flying through broken mirrors Staying closer to the edge Rise and fall of a fetus Little comet in your head Put on your daily mask Get ready to feel proud of what you fake to be I'm the voice that cannot talk The missing word when your mouth can't move anymore But you're just a slave in a kingdom of pain Made of paper walls that I can easily break But if there was a chance was the one you failed Now there's no more time and your fate is to remain here Flying through broken mirrors Staying closer to the edge Rise and fall of a fetus Little comet in your head In your head I fall again In your head I crawl again You are nothing more Than a name on a grave Part of your reflection Is fading away And the rest is just a blurred image What will survive of you By the end of the day? Flying through broken mirrors Staying closer to the end In your fucking head
4.
I feel your breath on my neck right here in my bed I cannot stand it Just want to break your head with a baseball bat You're a parasite, a brain destroyer, a pain in the ass I wanna kill you Oh my dirty bitch, my dirty lover Day by day all I do is hurt myself instead of hurting you God give me a knife cause all I want to see is her dead body I should have a bit of common sense but I'm stupid and weak God purify me and look how much I hate my dirty lover Help me, I'm sick I'm not sober, I'm not complete Help me cut her skin I'm the maniac, she's the enemy Let the bloodshed begin cause without her I'll be free Let it flow on my hands baby I'm waiting for your fuckin end And shadows all around me turn into something I'm afraid of, lonely limbo Hell talks to me and sets fire on my body, lovely evil I just cannot wait to dismember myself I just cannot wait to smash my head Help me, I'm sick I'm not sober, I'm not complete Help me cut her skin I'm the maniac, she's the enemy Let the bloodshed begin cause without her I'll be free Let it flow on my hands baby I'm waiting for your fuckin end Help me, I'm sick cause I love when you're bout to scream Wound me violently cause I don't deserve anything

Baby you like dancing with the devil Nothing compared to this You say you like things that are peculiar But this is not the case If there is a thing I can do It's to make you stronger By showing all my bad sides And hard testing your tolerance Pushing me to the light You drown into madness tonight Bringing me back to surface Willing to lose a whole life It's a battle you never give up Is it really worth it? Baby you like when things are complicated But this is something more You say you like to get lost in meanings Despite no meaning in me If there is a thing I can do It's to make you smiling By showing all my futilities And energizing the love we feel Pushing me to the light You drown into madness tonight Bringing me back to surface Willing to lose a whole life It's a battle you never give up Is it really worth it? Pushing me to the light You drown into madness tonight Bringing me back to surface Willing to lose a whole life It's a battle you never give up Is it really worth it?

(him) Hormonal, visceral Our love so physical Cold, Impersonal Your touch mechanical Can't speak cause your mouth so cannibal Your corruption so subliminal My cousin died but you bought new shoes And nothing matters if you're cool (her) I don't care if you don't look me in the eyes And if I'm only a body to admire Physical, I'm physical Don't be so critical Cynical, cynical I'm just too cynical (him) Digital, digital You look so digital Vertical, vertical Our lives so vertical Now we're part of the same showcase But actually apart outside of it My cousin died and never born Just like our love, so cynical I don't care if we look beautiful in a frame Just want to fade in a dramatic viral way (her) I don't care if you don't look me in the eyes And if I'm only a body to admire I don't care if we don't really look inside If we are artifice of our desire Physical, I'm physical Don't be so critical Cynical, cynical I'm just too cynical

Deathbed 04:07
Always going on slowly everyday Everything incomplete everywhen Always overthinking everynight It's the strange mechanism of my mind I swear I tried to do my best Not my fault if the world goes so fast Dreams of glories that are not mine yet While I'm alone here in my deathbed What a shame to be obsessed by freedom Always wasting time everytime Wondering what to do til moonlight Always finding truth behind my lies It's the strange mechanism that governs my life I swear I tried to do my best Not my fault if the world goes too fast Dreams of goals I have not achieved yet While I'm petrified in my deathbed What a shame to be slave of freedom

(her) Five dirty dead souls scattered on a dark beach Wandering lonely Black shadow wraps Vortex wind Ice freezes in the bones, in the veins Blood freezes Blood oxidizes The glass spreads Rain of glass tears from the sky in flames Bleeds the sky in flames Minds bleed Inflames the mind Inflames the skin deceives the mind Blames the mind Invades thirst Burns the sky Burns lip Burns the body Burns knot Burns (him) Close your eyes and float away Through dreams of enchanting love Up and down on lulling waves Ever further from the shore Slide a bit lower, let you go And sleep well Sleep well Can you still breathe? Can you still feel? Can you see death in the living? Are you seeing what I see too while getting lost in your coma? Close your eyes and float away Through dreams of enchanting storms Up and down on lulling waves Ever further from your dawn Falling remembering all your faults Babe, sleep well Sleep well Sleep well Can you still breathe? Can you still feel? Can you see death in the living? Are you seeing what I see too while getting lost in your coma?

Good morning my love I had a dream last night There was a cradle, an empty cradle And there were you, but it wasn't you We were staring at the cradle hearing the baby crying But it was just you and me, in a room With black clouds drawn on the walls and weird vibes in the air Your face, so blurry Constantly changing I tried to speak, I couldn't I wasn't able to make any sound And suddenly, I realized the baby had stopped crying Yeah, there was no baby You started looking at me, at my belly So round and big I was feeling something moving inside It hurt like hell I was afraid I looked at you, but it wasn't you I tried to scream, I couldn't My belly began to deform Your eyes, full and empty at the same time Full of indifference, empty of love The cradle wasn't empty anymore There was a baby, a monster, a mantis No more clouds on the walls, just insects My belly exploded, my insides fell on the floor Your look, still impassible The insects, they came towards me They started eating my insides They were buzzing And you were laughing And I was dying I woke up, I figured it out What are we waiting while we keep bleeding? And it keeps pushing Pushing Pushing Pushing Pushing...

Slowly Dying 03:06

I keep watching out my window on the crowd Everybody's chasing something abstract They keep wandering Shuffling randomly And black clouds move threatening on the background I keep watching in the box before me Every smile and every tear is flaunted They make us believe the more dark we're in the deep The more bright we can be on a golden surface And good things can be reachable on that surface But we are all underneath Where needs outclass all our dreams Together lost, together dead But still got breath I keep watching out Hearing for a sound A voice of hope among a thousand ones How to figure it out if all keeps getting loud? How to make that voice to reach the surface? And happiness is real only on that surface But we are all underneath Where we run fast for our needs Together lost and so till death Cause we live only to breathe And suffocate all our dreams Together lost, together dead And with a little less breath Why can't we change everything? Why do we have to live for something? Together lost and out of breath Cause we can't be something more Together lost, together dead
