요즘 영국 헤비씬이 무섭게 달아오르는 가운데 그 중 단연 최고의 밴드라고 한다면 필자는 한치의 망설임없이 “Architects”라고 말할 것입니다. 이제 너무나도 잘나가버리는 bmth(브링미더호라이즌)의 명맥을 따라서 비슷한 시기에 밴드를 시작했지만 그들만의 묵 직한 스타일로 밀고가면서 단단한 팬층을 보유하고있죠! 각설하고 얼마 전 새 앨범 ‘Holy Hell’에 수록 곡 중 "Hereafter"가뮤비로선공개되었는데요~ 해당곡을들어봤을때필자는기대반실망반이였는데요,,,,섣부른판단일수있겠지만 "Hereafter"라는곡으로미루어보았을때전작, 전전작과크게다를것없는스타일의느낌 을받았습니다, 하지만한편으로는 “그들만의아이덴티티가이런식의느낌으로단단해지는구나” 라는안도도느 껴졌습니다. 그도그럴것이요즘밴드들의진화과정을보자면중간에변화를꾀하여역변하는경우가많기때문에“Architects” 처럼단단한그들만의스타일을고수하는것도긍정적이라고볼수있겠죠~ ( 하지만“Architects”의 초창기 작품들은 좀 실망스러움…) 아무튼이번신곡에서도“Architects” 시그네쳐 사운드인 특유의 기타리프는 전작과의 연장선상 에 있는 앨범이 될 것이라고 예상되구요~ 들으면 들을수록 보컬 Sam Carter의 파워풀한 음역대에 반할수밖에 없는곡이네요… 감상하시죠~!
LyricsNow the oceans have drained outCan I come up for air? ‘Cos I’ve been learning to live withoutAnd I’m fighting with broken bonesI wasn’t ready for the raptureWe’re only passing throughBut these words, they mean nothing to meI know that time will mend this fractureBut I’ve been lost in a mazeAnd every route I takeLeads right back to youNow the oceans have drained outCan I come up for air?‘Cos I’ve been learning to live withoutAnd I’m fighting with broken bonesNow the skies have been blacked outI’ve got to find my way‘Cos it’s been raining but there’s a droughtAnd I’m fighting with broken bonesI’ve been searching through the wreckageBut it’s like standing in the eye of a stormWhen will I finally get the message?Some things are broken beyond repairThis is my cross to bearMy own meaningless catastropheI never had the time to prepareBecause I never knew that all my nightmares could come trueI’ve spent my fair shareIn the deepest depths of despair‘Cos I was too lost down there to careI wasn’t braced for the fallout
The silence brings a panic. It fills the empty space. To feed this paranoia, Trapped a mental cage. The rough & jagged edges, That line this feeble state, Prevent my hands from gripping. Oh, how they shake.
This is a warzone.
A hurricane of anger. The howling winds of rage. An ocean of confusion. The storm inside of me. Slowly losing control. Desperate for a glimpse of hope.
This is a warzone.
The seconds feel like hours. The minutes pass like days. Begin to count down from ten, & don't forget to,
Breathe in tranquility. Breathe in serenity. Breathe in a sense of relief. Before it escapes.
헤비한 로맨티스트들의 컴백!!! 10월에 신보 수곡인 We Came As Romans의 'Cold Like War' 가 공개 되었습니다!
후~! 듣자 마자 히트칠것 같다라는 느낌이 빡 오는 곡인데요~달리는 형식의 곡이 이처럼 깔끔하게
뽈았다는게 놀랍네요~ 이윤즉슨 루즈해지는 부분 없이 도입 전개 결말 부분이 지루하지않게 편곡이 잘 되었습니다.
딱딱 떨어지는 익스트림 보컬라인과 클린 보컬의 멜로디컬이 곡을 더욱 맛깔나게 들리게 합니다^^(정말 좋으네요~!)
10월에 너무나도 많은 밴드들이 좋은 신곡들을 선공개 했는데요~ 그중에서도 단연 탑이라고 말할 수 있을 듯 합네요...
더욱 깔끔해진 헤비함으로 돌아온 We Came As Romans의 신보가 너무나도 기대됩니다~!
첵 디싸운드~!
LYRICS
Divided doubt, grown to separate. Our weathered hearts search for home again. Too afraid to take those uncertain steps, but two years ago we were stronger then. When we dove head first, we were so alive, risking everything trying to change lives. Now, my red eyes filled with shallow compromise. Ripping tickets, split commitment, future undefined. I never wanted to watch us fight like war and turn away from each other. We had to stop and surrender to restore and find a way to recover, losing all we should have been, consequences made in this failure on to feel again. Blacked out, misguided rage, grown to separate our hardened hearts from our resentful brains. No way to see how far down you’ll land when the fall you take wasn’t part of your plan. Cold like war! Doomed if you do, disowned if you don’t, no way out for any one of us. I bit my tongue, let the blood fill my mouth. I just smiled while I sat there and bled out. But, through this I found out where I stand. I will never betray me again.
