A lone night in my asylum, my mind
On an inpatient ward, trapped
A world of pain, where feelings burn like embers
Dying in a winters breeze
In solitude, forgotten by all, I reside
In corridors and dark corners, I reside
Suicidal thoughts, thoughts of leaving
Accompany me through my day alone
Bladed tongues lick the skin, pain leaves
Till the tool is taken from me by overseers
Then left to melancholic resignations of defeat
Alone again, in dusty corridors to dwell
Death desire, and lonely tears, no pill to take them
A lone night in my asylum, my mind
Isolated from the world outside my window
A danger to myself, inside or out, I will die
I toy with my razorblade, flirting with the skin
Teasing open the skin, to let lose my anger
Running down my arms, I feel it ebb to nothing
At night, broken and rotted dreams leave, suicide takes flight
Carrying me away to a darkness
Embraced like a lost friend, I follow it to nothing
But then I wake, holding only the empty air
Crying for what is lost, happiness and content
A lone night in my asylum, my mind
On an inpatient ward, trapped
A world of pain, where feelings burn like embers
Dying in a winters breeze
In solitude, forgotten by all, I reside
In corridors and dark corners, I reside
Suicidal thoughts, thoughts of leaving
Accompany me through my day alone
When I sleep, they return to me, voices telling me to let go and die
On broken and rotted dreams, suicide took flight
And I try to follow, but only to wake again, and repeat it all
To live, hate, die and repeat.

The second (03:01) I heard that angry bellow gurgling upwards as from the depths of hell, conquering the composition, rising in intensity, and climaxing more than half a minute later (a geyser of blood spouting up from Tartaros, breaching subterranean roofs and spewing forth onto the face of the earth), I was engrossed hook, line and sinker. Drawn into the underworldly dark. Vocal performances like these never fail to conjure a grin on my face. The Disillusioned One

Certains vont bondir à l'idée de "rafraîchir" le black metal dépressif mais c'est bien à cette tâche que se consacre Funeral Fornication dans Solitude and Suicide. Les mélodies lancinantes tournent en boucle ("Channeling Volatile Energy"), Vultyrous hurle son désespoir à s'en déchirer les cordes vocales et la production est distante. Mais c'est surtout par les synthés qu'il surprend car ils sont très dramatiques voire théâtraux, ils nous attirent dans la tourmente comme le chant des sirènes... Jordan Vauvert
