I generally prefer Tristania's older albums, but this song has always been one of my favs. It's a masterpiece. Sadly, it hasn't been available on Spotify for a very, very long time. Such a shame.
I just discovered it wasn't available on Spotify the other day as well, I was so disappointed! I love this album too, it's the only one I own in a physical copy.
I took a nap...I woke up and I remember this album...too lazy to look for it ...I have it somewhere, I bought it,,, back in 2005....memories a lot of them...very dark ...some of them....and now again....the shadowman,,,is back to distracts me nerves....I wonder why?
At night, asleep Nightmares, not dreams Drag me through the dirt There is no place to run, nor hide He's in my blood I try to keep him out He rules the pain He makes up the ugly thoughts The rotten words He distracts my nerves His claws His poisoned laughter twists the knife His long sharp teeth Motionless silence Sullen muttering He holds the blame He's in my veins He holds the blame I try to keep him out He rules the pain inside He makes up the ugly thoughts The rotten words He distracts my nerves I've never seen his face But I have felt his breath so many times Soaked in sweat Sleeping pills and cigarettes But when the day Chases the night awayâ?¦
Oh man... I feel sorry for you, really. Mary is great, another style of singing and that is welcome. Love that they reinvent the sound and I say that admitting I didn't like last record... but the samples of Darkest White sound incredible.
There is no rest of the band, the guitarist/vocalist and keyboardist are the only remaining original members. Completely different band, different sound and should not be using the name of Tristania!
