Music Finally, an entire forum devoted to talking about Doktor Avalanche, the drum machine for the Sisters of Mercy. You can talk about other bands, or other members of that band, too, if you want to be UNCOOL. |

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

I didn't see it but I will apologize in advance but I didn't see these lyrics at all.
Death cab for cutie
What Sarah said
"And it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time
as i stared at my shoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409
And i rationed my breaths as i said to myself i had already taken too much today
As each decending peak on the LCD took you a little farther away from me.
Amongst the vending machines and year old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye
Its sung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our mind.
And I knew that you were a truth that i'd rather lose than never to have layin' beside to at all.
Then i looked all around at all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself.
Cuz theres no comfort in the waiting room just nervous faces bracing for bad news.
Then the nurse comes round and everyone lifts their head.
But im thinking of what Sarah said, that love is watching someone die....
So whos gonna watch you die?"

The Sleeper Has Awakened - Divinity Destroyed
Tied down to the floor it's an endless nightmare
Break another bone, it's your ass that I'm beating
Cut through your flesh, the screams get louder
Live another day, now I'm pissed I didn't kill you
Dormant
Arise
Fire burning high
Hold my rage back
I don't want you near me
Hold my grin back
As I watch you burn
Horrified by the sight before me
Skinless face staring right back at me
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around
Purified by the pain I'm giving
I will free you of the life you're living
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around me
The sleeper has awakened and your heart beats louder
Lost in the haze of a broken down mind
Reach into my soul for an ounce of mercy
A sea of pain is all you'll find
Dormant
Arise
Fire burning high
Hold my rage back
I don't want you near me
Hold my grin back
As I watch you burn
Horrified by the sight before me
Skinless face staring right back at me
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around
Purified by the pain I'm giving
I will free you of the life you're living
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around me
"Father, the sleeper has awakned"
Stare at the sky as the light starts to darken
Call to your god but no one answers
The sleeper has awakened and the end is near
Scream to the heavens for the angel of death
Dormant
Arise
Fire burning high
Hold my rage back
You don't want me near you
Hold my grin back
As I watch you burn
Horrified by the sight before me
Skinless face staring right back at me
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around
Purified by the pain I'm giving
I will free you of the life you're living
Walls of fire, towering walls of fire
All around, all, all around me
I am not who you remember
I'm alive, I have awakened
I'm the fire, you are the ashes
I'm the fire, you are the ashes
Bleed for me, give me what I've needed
Die for me, show me I succeeded
I'm the fire, you are the ashes
I'm the dream, you are the memory
"Long live the fighters"
->props if anyone knows where the quotes in the song come from<-

I don't need a laser beam
I don't need the time
Leave me in the car tonight
Rest your drunken mind
I need your grace alone
Lesser things are on your mind
Don't you think I know?
Will this poison scar my eyes?
Mother, close the door
I need your grace alone
I don't need a laser beam

Atheist `Motherman`
You say there's freedom
Within our nature
Well I don't think you understand
Mother Earth has fallen to Mother Man
The Air, the Sea, the Grass, the Trees,
The nemesis is the major,
Fearless leader Mother Man.
Come on take a look
At what's become
Of the existence that leads
Or so we think
That's always a popular phrase
It suits the laws written
By dear Mother Man,
Those heavy hands.
What man creates man will surely destroy
The rule of thumb
In the mouths of little boys
Earth spins delight
We kill everything in sight
To serve the needs
And all purple skies will bleed
And a bird flies weak
Against polluted skies
Before it dies
And nature becomes illegal
According to rules
Made by fools
Sift through the information
Everlasting hesitation
To reveal all knowing vices
All the compomising prices
Untouched by the law binders
Setting standards to remind us
That the ink has dried
Behind the goal
We wish to achieve is gone
Classic !!!.

The Irritants - "Surgeon on Parole"
Let me rattle your skull
I'll put the prize in this bowl
As I open your chest
And dig around for your soul
Your unconditional pain
Is my ultimate goal
I'm a surgeon
Out on Parole
As a kid I did wake
To find I had a red thumb
Neighborhood pets volunteered
The mutilations begun
But then they put me away
Just when I was on a roll.....

Sabbat `Horned Is The Hunter`
Album: `History Of A Time To Come`
Alone he sits -
a vanquished Lord upon an oaken throne,
presiding o'er this conflict
that chills him to the bone,
for each tarnished blade that festers
is a thorn thrust in his side,
and His pain alone bears witness
to the folly of mankind.
What hope for a king with no kingdom to rule?
now his children desert him -
regard him a fool,
and are bonded to progress -
the plough and the scythe -
that lay waste and leave barren
what beauty survives
though legends of power and glory suffice -
for these 'latter-day-heroes'
who live out their lives,
chained by conformity shackled by greed -
and told to belive they don't want to be freed.
The enemy within us -
is well armed to spoil and ****,
and this mighty heart grows weaker with
each liberty they take,
so come ye from the shadows
do not tremble 'neath your beds,
at the mention of his name -
hold high your weary heads.
For in each delve and greenwood,
far wiser creatures play,
and in their veins and sinews,
live the Gods of yesterday.
Both wicked and lustful
this God's horny might,
He plays hide and seek
with the shadows of the night,
enthroned in high mountains -
nobility crowned with the wisdom of ages -
the forest his gown,
so nimble the fingers that pipe out the tune,
simple and pure is the song of the moon -
that echoes each evening the ritual performed,
a lament for a God to a Devil transformed.
Are there men among us
prepared to face the fight
who'll stand by their convictions
'gainst overwhelming might,
so do not hide like cowards
and await the bitter end,
come take your courage in both hands
and join with me my friend.
For in each delve and greenwood,
far wiser creatures play,
and in their veins and sinews,
live the Gods of yesterday.
A God of many faces
yet none of them are known
existing in all places at all times -
His glory shown in the majesty of nature,
let the Hymn to Pan be sung
for the myth is but a History Of A Time To Come.
His name is eternal - His power unknown,
the ruler paternal - He watches alone,
as great cities tumble and empires fall,
admist this confusion the Hunter stands tall.
Classic !!!!.

They have jazz influences, but they're definitely considered technical death.

I usually hear them classified as Jazz Death Metal or Jazz Metal the same as Cynic, but it doesn't really bother me, they're fantastic either way.

Your Star
I can't see yr star
Though i patiently waited ,
Bedside
For the death of today ..
I can't see yr star
The mechanical light of lisbon
Frightened it away
And i'm alone now ..
Me and all ..
I stood for ..
We're wanderin' now ..
All in parts , in pieces ..
Swim lonely
Find yr own way out
I can't see yr star
So how can the darkness feel so wrong ?
And i'm alone now ..
Me and all ..
I stood for ..
We're wanderin' now ..
All in parts , in pieces ..
Swim lonely
Find yr own way out
So far away ..
It's growin' colder ..
Without yr love..
Why can't u feel me ..
Callin' yr name?
Can't break za silence..
It's braekin' me
AND ALL MY FERAS TURN TO RAGE ..
And i'm alone now ..
Me and all ..
I stood for ..
We're wanderin' now ..
All in parts , in pieces ..
Swim lonely
Find yr own way out now..
Hell ..
Nothing worth fightin' for ..
We're wanderin' now ..
All in parts , in pieces ..
Swim lonely ..
Find ur way out ..
So fuckin' great .. I adore this damn track

We'll do away with your kind
Countdown to exterminate the human race
4, 3, 2, 1
Let chaos entwine
On defenceless soil
Remove errors of man
And sweep all the weakening kind
I am war, I am pain
I am all you've ever slain
I am tears in your eyes
I am grief, I am lies
Bygone are tolerance
And presence of grace
Scavengers are sent out
To cleanse the human filth parades
I am pure, I am true
I am all over you
I am laugh, I am smile
I am the earth defiled
I am the cosmic storms
I am the tiny worms
I am fear in the night
I am bringer of light
Earth successfully erased

"Shadow of the Sun," Audioslave
Once upon a time
I was on a mind to lay your burden down
And leave you where you stood
You believed I could
Youd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts
And tell you what you saw
And never say a word
But now that is gone
Over with and done
And never to return
I can tell you why
People die alone
I can tell you why
The shadow on the sun
Staring at the loss
Looking for the cause
And never really sure
Nothing but a hole
To live without a soul
And nothing to be learned
I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
I can tell you why
The end will never come
I can tell you on
The shadow on the sun
Shapes of every size
Move behind my eyes
Doors inside my head
Bolted from within
Every drop of flame
Lights a candle in
Memory of the one
Who lived inside my skin
I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
I can tell you why
The end will never come
I can tell you on
The shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Shadow on the sun
Sun
Sun

Death `Symbolic`
I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Chorus:
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible
Solo: Schuldiner / Solo: Koelble
Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow
Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real...
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Repeat chorus
Classic !!!.

Thirty Years
by
U.K.
(Eddie Jobson-John Wetton-Allan Holdsworth-Bill Bruford)
Chasing rainbows for a lifetime
left ago
Shadows from the sun,
Running traces
Of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
than echoes of a day gone by,
someone else will have to try
To light the stars
......In your sky.
All the things you planned
Just sand castles washed away
On tidal waves of tears,
fears overpowering
Your complex dreams just slither down
drowning in rocky pools,
are smashed and dashed
On peril's course, divorcing prematurely
thoughts
Of lasting love
......In your life.
Sometimes we need time to spare
Feeling of missed opportunity
Spare a tear and douse your bridge...
burning
30 years and on the ledge....
learning
All the things you planned
fading
30 years and then
waiting.
All the things you planned
fading
30 years and then
waiting.
Chasing rainbows for a lifetime you left ago
like shadows from the sun
running traces
of faces you thought you saw
but never seemed to be much more
than echoes of a day gone by,
someone else will have to try
to light the stars...
in your sky
your dark sky!

Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue
O Mamma O Mamma
He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between
He was feeling something rotten
O Mamma O Mamma
Orpheus looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said O my God
O Mamma O Mamma
He rushed inside to tell his wife
He went racing down the halls
Eurydice was still asleep in bed
Like a sack of cannonballs
O Mamma O Mamma
Look what I've made, cried Orpheus
And he plucked a gentle note
Eurydice's eyes popped from their sockets
And her tongue burst through her throat
O Mamma O Mamma
O God, what have I done, he said
As her blood pooled in the sheets
But in his heart he felt a bliss
With which nothing could compete
O Mamma O Mamma
Orpheus went leaping through the fields
Strumming as hard as he did please
Birdies detonated in the sky
Bunnies dashed their brains out on the trees
O Mamma O Mamma
Orpheus strummed till his fingers bled
He hit a G minor 7
He woke up God from a deep, deep sleep
God was a major player in heaven
O Mamma O Mamma
God picked up a giant hammer
And He threw it with an thunderous yell
It smashed down hard on Orpheus' head
And knocked him down a well
O Mamma O Mamma
The well went down very deep
Very deep went down the well
The well went down so very deep
Well, the well went down to hell
O Mamma O Mamma
Poor Orpheus woke up with a start
All amongst the rotting dead
His lyre tacked safe under his arm
His brains all down his head
O Mamma O Mamma
Eurydice appeared brindled in blood
And she said to Orpheus
If you play that fucking thing down here
I'll stick it up your orifice!
O Mamma O Mamma
This lyre lark is for the birds, said Orpheus
It's enough to send you bats
Let's stay down here, Eurydice, dear
And we'll have a bunch of screaming brats
O Mamma O Mamma
Orpheus picked up his lyre for the last time
He was on a real low down bummer
And stared deep into the abyss and said
This one is for Mamma
O Mamma O Mamma

When silent torture comes to
eclipse my heart
You can’t help me, my friend
to break shadows
Bury me in the wood
into the grave-mound
Nevermore waste any time
Days go by and life
you’ll never live again
Fear of old age...
Eclipse by Beltaine

"There are nights when I think Sal Paradise was right.
Boys and Girls in America have such a sad time together.
Sucking off each other at the demonstrations
Making sure their makeup’s straight
Crushing one another with colossal expectations.
Dependent, undisciplined, and sleeping late.
She was a really cool kisser and she wasn’t all that strict of a Christian.
She was a damn good dancer but she wasn’t all that great of a girlfriend.
She likes the warm feeling but she’s tired of all the dehydration.
Most nights are crystal clear, but tonight it’s like it’s stuck between stations on the radio.
The devil and John Berryman took a walk together.
They ended up on Washington talking to the river.
He said “I’ve surrounded myself with doctors
And deep thinkers, but big heads with soft bodies make for lousy lovers.”
There was that night that we thought John Berryman could fly.
But he didn’t, so he died.
She said “You’re pretty good with words,
But words won’t save your life.”
And they didn’t, so he died.
He was drunk and exhausted but he was critically acclaimed and respected.
He loved the Golden Gophers but he hated all the drawn out winters.
He likes the warm feeling but he’s tired of all the dehydration
Most nights were kind of fuzzy but that last night he had total retention.
These Twin Cities kisses sound like clicks and hisses.
We all tumbled down and drowned in the Mississippi River.
We drink and we dry up,
Then we crumble to dust.
We get wet and we corrode,
and now were covered up in rust."
-- The Hold Steady, Stuck Between Stations

Take No Prisoners
Got one chance, infiltrate them
Get it right, terminate them
The Panzers will, permeate them
Break their pride, denigrate them
And their people, retrograde them
Typhus, deteriate them
Epidemic, devastate them
Take no prisoners, cremate them
Go to war, give 'em hell
D-Day, next stop Normandie
Beginning of the end
WE know how to and sure as shit we'll win
War is peace sure man
A retreat for the damned
A playground for the demented
A haven for those who walk this world
Bereft of heart and soul
Love and war they say all is fair
Take his life
But won't take his hair
Your body has parts your
Country can spare
By the way son here's
Your wheelchair
He once had to be all he could be
Now he's nothing for no one nowhere to see
Funny thing, he's like you & me
It's a funny thing, a funny thing
Tears streak his solemn stare
Abandoned for wreckage nobody cares
No one knew what would happen there
No one spoke no one even dared
Don't ask what you can do for you country
Ask what your country can do for you
Take no prisoners, take no shit
-Megadeth-Rust In Peace

Therion `Summer Night City`
Summer Night City
Waiting for the sunrise
Soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in a park
Summer night city
In the sun I feel like sleeping
I can't take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free
When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
Lots to take and lots to give
Time to breath and time to live
Waiting for the sunrise
Soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in a park
Summer night city
It's elusive
Call it glitter
Somehow something turns me on
Some folks only see the litter
We don't miss them when they're gone
I love the feeling in the air
My kind of people everywhere
When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
And tomorrow
When it's dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
It's a dream
It's out of reach
Scattered driftwood on the beach
Waiting for the sunrise
Soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in a park
Summer night city
Brilliant !!!.

Human Drama - Fascination and Fear
In stillness, so much motion inside
In silence, within I held a deafening cry
My needs can never be satisfied
For my love will never be realized
I can almost feel your heart beating
See confusion in eyes so clear
The line between fascination
And fear
I battle a thought every second
For I don't feel as I was taught
I want to swim the river forbidden
I want to climb the mountain denied
I can almost feel your heart beating
See confusion in eyes so clear
The line between fascination
And fear
My needs can never be satisfied
For my love will never be realized
