lyrics
with every close encounter
they all describe the steel
twisting their realities
some question if it's real
no signs of fabrication
it almost seems alive
with just a thin wall of protection
from you and what's inside
what's inside
the strange metal
the unknown steel
what's inside
the strange metal
this can't be real
no one wants to face the horror
it's much easier to lie
that the ships coming and going
are just lights up in the sky
see, proof is always needed
and there is nothing we can do
you better pray
that they are leaving
and that they are
not just here for you
what's inside
the strange metal
the unknown steel
what's inside
the strange metal
this can't be real
If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse
So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka
