I am a match
You are a fire
Cold as the air I breathe
Tragedy
Always burning out
Tired, sleepless moons
Regardless I’ll die soon
Natural causes
or turned to ash
Sever the limbs that clutch the earth
I’ll die like the animal I am
Pick at the scabs of frozen flesh
I’ll die in the cold with empty hands
All my life I have felt the hunger swell
All my days of solitude have built this constant hell
My misery is carved into the flesh
For all to watch and mock relentlessly
My days are numbered and counting down
I am not carrying the love you need
I am a match
You are a fire
Cold as the air I breathe
Tragedy
Always burning out
Tired, sleepless moons
Regardless I’ll die soon
Natural causes
or turned to ash
All my life I have felt the hunger swell
All my days of solitude have built this constant hell

The Garden

I wanted to plant a garden
Fill the dirt with my bones
Watch as the stars flee above me
But I was buried beneath
I see the scars on my arm
They remind me of home
In the room where I cut off my limbs
I was carried into the wind
So I’ll plant a garden
Fill the dirt with my bones
Watch as the stars flee above me
But I was buried beneath
I see the scars on my arm
They remind me of home
In the room where I cut off my limbs
I was carried into the wind
I starve as my misery
Is the only thing that grows
I die as my loved ones
Stare with an empty expression
The winter is always this cold
That’s what I tell myself
I can’t bare this face
That always looks like it’s getting older
And will I regress
If my life doesn’t turn out right
Is there any chance of
Ending it all in one night

In Blood

I was caught
in the current
An undertow of pain
Limping through each day
Each limb was dead
Frostbitten skin
When my veins
Were emptied in the snow
No one knew how deep the cold crept in
The sun burned day by day
And they stood in the shade
All that's left is a contract written in blood
Signing away remaining days

This Is Not Love
05:10

My heart can’t be
Measured in scripture I don’t believe
Is this all I am to you?
The demon that obscures your view
There is no love
In the words you read
It’s conditional
And always will be
The help I need
Is not found on a page
The love I could receive
Is built on fallacy
My heart can’t be
Measured in scripture I don’t believe
Is this all I am to you?
The demon that obscures your view

There is nothing more you can say to
Bring me closure for the love that you refuse
Something’s wrong with me
That always what you mean
When you tell me that you pray for me
To kill the roots of the pain that’s haunting
I know I never was the person
You wanted me to be
I am not the man I wanted to be
I have always felt like the black sheep

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...

《 So many questions 》 — "Rest", Inevitable. NONE. La mort est une épée de Damoclès : elle va tomber et on en a conscience ; on ignore quand et on la redoute. Tel est le thème d'Inevitable. Pour pousser ce concept jusqu'au bout, NONE fait en sorte que ce quatrième album soit à double tranchants. Sur le plan quantitatif, DSBM et dark ambiant sont sur un pied d'égalité : si le premier est toujours aussi dévastateur, le second n'est pas là pour apporter du réconfort. L'incertitude, l'angoisse...

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE
supported by 48 fans who also own “My Misery is Carved Into the Flesh of This World”
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs...

Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite.
