lyrics
I need some holidays
In my life I feel so bad
I just want to meet the mountain goat
Cold rock will make my day
I want to climb a grand gendarme
Just one false step and my life is over
I need some holidays
In my life I feel so bad
And I'm sick and tired of this flat horizon
An eagle calls my name
Gliding 'round the grand gendarme
A sudden storm and my life is over
I wander
The sun is getting colder
And I wonder about a better life
Called lightning
Called lightning and thunder
The ridge is inflamed
The ridge is on fire
In my life I feel so bad
I just want to meet the mountain goat
Cold rock will make my day
I want to climb a grand gendarme
Just one false step and my life is over
I need some holidays
In my life I feel so bad
And I'm sick and tired of this flat horizon
An eagle calls my name
Gliding 'round the grand gendarme
A sudden storm and my life is over
I wander
The sun is getting colder
And I wonder about a better life
Called lightning
Called lightning and thunder
The ridge is inflamed
The ridge is on fire

Great Escape
by Crippled Black PhoenixCRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX truly have no equal, and 'Great Escape' is a beautiful, ominous, and stunning work of post-rock, outsider art.
go to album -
Produced by the band and Matt Bayles (PEARL JAM, MASTODON, etc.), ‘III’ raises the stakes on their unique, Appalachia-tinged blend of heavy rock.

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderunsupported by 16 fans who also own “Grand Gendarme”
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here.

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....
go to album -
Screamo, post-rock, and a little black metal meld together for Virginia quartet Infant Island's signature immersive and melancholy sound.
