No eye, to greet with calmness
Come, now, wear, this, storm!
Waiting to rise again
Feel, the, sparks, ignite!
Last night, woke up to a roar
Fast hide, waiting if there is more
Flash bright, glass just can't hold on
Outside, there nothing I could've done
Time, to burst, to be in places simultaneously
What now is a part of you, a physical form of energy
Aimlessly, lost the count of how many times
has this lighting hit the same spot
If there ever was the time, to set things right
Tranquillity of the sea, planets finally aligned
Kept on chasing the invisible, trying to force it real
Try not to try, be like the sky
No way for me to say it loud
Ask questions how and when?
This is now my life
There's no controlling over it
Few steps is all it takes
Smallest gleam just might
That's right, bi-polar entity
Who knows, whatever it may need
Can't hide, denying won't pay out
Inside, there nothing I could've done
Down they go, the walls built to keep the sanity
All gone in the name of creation, crumbling at my feet
Raising high, the torch, leading the way
Flame burning bright, luring my kind
The only way to see thru darkness
If there ever was the time, to set things right
Tranquillity of the sea, planets finally aligned
Kept on chasing the invisible, trying to force it real
Try not to try, be like the sky
Flowing inside me (The) deep scarred potency
Brought me to my knees, never giving peace
Run, dive, make an effort
Be like million gathered suns
All exploding at once, in my mind
Rush of blood, twisted anomalies, pushing on, manic compulsories
Blinding dots, neurotic overheat, cold embrace, grinding of the teeth
Scorching earth, ball of fire, all becoming charred
Molten ground, buried down, faster than the light
Slowing pace, look behind, nothing to be found
Piles of ash, settling dust, I'm beyond doubt
Rush of blood, twisted anomalies, pushing on, manic compulsories
Blinding dots, neurotic overheat, cold embrace, grinding of the teeth
As I come facing something bright, I crush it with my pride,
And hurt it if I can, and close the door behind
The fading moments haunt, though conscience is no more a part of
This hazy form of a man
The constant burning to go on, not able stand still
The only way to feel, is running towards the end

Vansidian stands out for following the least traditional path of metal bands nowadays,
combining an
impressive variety of influences,
thus delivering a sound that covers the whole spectrum of heavy metal subgenres.
Retro video game-inspired melodies with galloping death metal riffs,
melodic hooks and richly combinative vocals,
simultaneously maintaining an oldschool heavy metal orientation....more
Abstract Illusion achieve to create an imaginary landscape that magnets to our metallic soul. An extraordinary rounded album that will continue spinning for a long period. josich
Another seamless blend of extreme genres from Stortregn. Killer riffs, tasty basslines, and lots of fun tech influences in the composition and instrumentation make this an absolute banger front to back. Facepalming Panda
Finnish death metallers leaven infernal dynamics with triumphant, infectious melodies, striking a compelling balance between grit and grace. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 25, 2023
