lpajax I am listening to over 100 prog albums per years. I am still catching up on 2019 release but so far Dark Green Glow is without a doubt in my top 3 of the year with Moron Police and Devin Townsend. What a great surprised that album have been. The vocals, melodies and hook are on the spot. What a great suprise. Love it. Favorite track: Dark Green Glow.

think i ́ll stay in bed today rather dream the day away nothing of the worldly kind should attempt to change my mind fear in my mind who threw the anker, pulling me into the dark? fearless inside, you spread the anger, pulling me into the dark through my pane the morning sun shines, for a new day has begun it makes me mad, it hurts my eyes illuminates everything that i despise so i ́m letting the shutters down think i ́ll stay in bed today, outside of these four walls, there ́s nothing left for me i ́d rather chase my ghosts today, anyway, from today, i ́m a ghost too

listening to the rain, trying to keep calm thinking of all the words you said to me though it ́s not even worth it all your nonsense is far beyond me uninformed but an opinion on everything with your careless smile no matter where you go then again, what really matters in your superficial life celebrating, grating and i put no trust in our lost generation this is not a fools exaggeration as some like to say i often noticed your ridiculous demands center of attention solely reserved just for you welcome to a world where everything ́s offensive careful what you say, you might upset someone, for real take it away, take it away their righteous indignation truly sickens me, annoys me deeply offended by, hypothetically, everything everyone ever said and with everything i say and do i ́m triggering the butthurt, absurd they ́ve got the long term impact of a throw away package straining this world with their useless baggage loud obnoxious pricks you still want to be loved, by each and everyone but you ́re still scared of other peoples opinions, no to you they make no sense i hoped you were just joking, for i like to joke a lot but with every attempt, they scream like toddlers, light the flame what a nerve, oh what a shame he ́s pathetic and insane if there ́s always a way to offend you then i ́ll never run out of things to do see cause this time, the cleverer won ́t give in if there ́s always a way to offend you then i ́ll never run out of things to do when you ́re angry and you scream like a brat you ́re hilarious, drop dead

Falling Away 07:43
everything just falls apart the moment i come around could it be coincidence or providence, forever bound it sticks with me, how? how come everything i see is falling away from me and endlessly, why? how come everything i touch is just falling away from me? like a stranger passing by, you rise to a new life. pulling everything and everyone i ́ve known on your side it sticks with me, how? how come everything i see is falling away from me? and endlessly, why? how come everything i touch is just falling away from me like sand running through my fingers, my life is still falling away, falling away everyone, just leave in the dark, cause apparently if i ́m near, any luck seems to disappear everything i know, everything i touch, everything i see is just falling away from me everybody turns, every wording burns, everything i see is just falling away from me turning all the lights off, dreaming and when i ́m not dreaming, i ́m screaming everything is falling, falling away i can feel your satisfactory grin there, as i smash my furniture in despair. every thought you ́ve left behind, rest ́s within my broken mind. and fades away

there ́s something in my soul a deep and dreary hole ever expanding im trying to rip it out, wanting to grab it, but it ́s backwards-bending then again i ́m at the kitchen sink, throwing up everything and it stinks like stale and ancient air, i ́m leaning on my chair, but the hole ́s still there. you ́re taking care of it, just took a dump in it, it ́s well hydrated. soon in my dreams i ́ll see big trees of green as peculiar voices talk to me. no, this hole, it won ́t go away, it ́s there to annoy and stay. hey, just dream away just dream away, lost and astray, you ́re here to stay there ́s something in my head, while lying in my bed old memories play out these thoughts keep haunting me, singled out of my flawed reality i ́m awake and still dissatisfied, so i just want to sleep warm and tight. no this pressure won ́t go away, it ́s there to annoy and stay, hey, just dream away, just dream away, lost and astray, you ́re here to stay all those people, the things they say, it ́s just driving you insane, hey, just dream away, just dream away, lost and astray, you ́re here to stay. i wake in a glowing green, but is it a waking dream? and these voices keep calling me. leave your sorrow behind, and exorcise this demon from the jungle of your mind. you ́ll have to sleep in the forest, at least tonight. no this pressure won ́t go away, it ́s there to annoy and stay, hey, just dream away, just dream away, lost and astray, you ́re here to stay all those people, the things they say, it ́s just driving you insane, hey, just dream away, just dream away, lost and astray, you ́re here to stay.

pt.1 the further and so i wander in the dark fearing your memory left a mark on this lonely soul and frozen heart subconciously drifting into spheres i ́ve never known before setting my foot into this world peculiar voices never heard humming a melody that resonates within my skull there is still regret for most of what i ́ve done as yet i can ́t rewind nor ease my mind i ́ve put my trust in you and i will never do that again once in my life i ́ve put my trust in you but everything that i would try to give you passed you by and failed to stay with you and all the words you said still echo in my head steadily it ́s not that i believe them but they're crushing nonetheless once in my life i tried to love someone but every time that i would try to make clear how i feel, there was always this fear. that you would turn away, for reasons unexplained then i already knew that you would leave me in the dark cause it always went down that way what should that differ now anyway? yeah cause it always went down this way why should that differ now anyway? why should that differ now anyway? pt.2 tempest of laughter it ́s a dark and stormy night trees are falling down by the wayside branches bending over me, pointing out the way to my mental disruption a sudden flash of lightning streaks through the jungle canopy rolling thunder slowly creeps into my sanity and wind keeps sweeping by heavy rain, rain on me, wash the mud and the pain away then i ́m empty, empty, empty deepest rage, loudest screams, is all that stays, stays with me running in the dark i saw something creep, deep in the deep a silhouette pitch black close on my heels constantly who are you inside? just call, shine a light the green and black is too wide such a dark jungle night i ́m absorbed in dreams tonight, what ever you want to let me know, don ́t wake me up, no you won ́t wake me up just hang up cause i ́m so sick, tired of everything in my life, leave me alone, oh just leave me alone think i ́ll stay in bed today, nothing you, or anyone could ever say would change my mind, no you won ́t change my mind. it ́s not like you even care go on woke up in tears thought that i heard a scream but everything that I could make out pitch black room, not a single sound maybe I should get up but I can ́t move nor breathe as I ́m gasping for air you look at me with that black monstrous stare the walls are closing in and I ́m still trapped within I hear my bones crushing and laughter, laughter, laughter you ́re in my mind to stay why should that differ now anyway? yeah, cause it always went down this way why should that differ now anyway? why should that differ now anyway? i heard them whispering in the trees humming their haunted melody wander away into this strange and darkened jungle night there is still regret for most of what i ́ve done as yet i can ́t rewind nor ease my mind i tried to love someone and i will never do that again

once the twilight forest flourishes in your mind you can never leave it never leave it behind a twisted, dark reflection of your subconscious mind a wicked incarnation of otherworldly kind seen as how my head is filled with gruesome, dark obscurity ́s it is hardly surprising, that i see what i just see reminds me of the real world this ones not off concrete though undergrowth with dark green glow there is a presence, and i ́m convinced it ́s her. i can hear her breathing, quietly in despair. and it seems the more i think of her, the closer she will come. figured i need to wipe her from this darkened mind, leave this thing from the past behind. maybe then i ́ll wake again, but it ́s not working since i let her alter all the ways in which i act and feel her void caused an reflection inner darkness that will never heal reminds me of the real girl of her pulling me into the dark here she ́s grey like concrete though vicious eyes with dark green glow

when i woke up in the dark green glow there was just one leaf in the darkness the only source of light it fell down, fell into the black then as all light finally perished i heard a river flow. deep in that darkness i wander alone followed it downstream felt like an eternity but the stream split in two and there were voices in the air was it you? was it me? how come we both could not agree? am i right? am i wrong? but yet in spite of all i ́ll never let you win i am right where i ́m supposed to be now and i ́ll defy your stare show me your dark green glow since you won ́t let me go till ́ this dream comes crushing down soon the stream ceased the black got darker then and i felt in my chest this must ́ve been the wrong way still i can ́t see a thing show yourself your false pride queen it over me with childish insults yet again, you let me wander aimlessly that ́s what i always did since i can remember i ́ll never let you win i am right where i ́m supposed to be now and i ́ll defy your stare show me your dark green glow since you won ́t let me go till ́ this dream comes crushing down i saw you in the real world you had green glowing eyes and i could not help it so i ́m just chasing after the disaster ever after the darkness closes in with a swarm of crows croaking somewhere close the voices in my head, telling me to run, the end is begun you took the best of me, all my sobriety, i ́ll let it go, but then your feelings still won ́t show my eyes, starting to sting, with a concrete mass, raining down on me it dries on my skin making a crust i can not move in you took the best of me, all my sobriety, i ́ll let it go, but then your feelings still won ́t show i saw you in the real world, at first i thought you were not so deeply rooted in all it ́s lies i felt you in the darkness, your hands were grabbing my throat felt you in the darkness slowly gripping

Remember Me 08:21
i still recall every little moment that we ́ve shared, what about you? if i were to decease, would you at least shed a single tear on my passing? still i feel trembling in my hands but i ́m awake now as it stands turn on the tv, the lights and the radio why is it that i can ́t escape the ghost of her? i ́m still upset of the darkness that i ́ve seen so i open the shutters (up) as i look at the street and the blackened night-sky the deep grey concrete buildings make me cry should i get up for this cruel misguided world? will it remember me? i don ́t know if it will remember me i ́m a ghost once in my life i knew what was good for me i gave it all up for things that don ́t mean a thing to me and for you, you knew that with certainty maybe i should retrace all my steps in life until everything went to hell and i became this broken empty shell as there ́s still regret for most of what i ́ve done as yet i shall decide to put it aside as for this dark, cruel world it puts no trust in me i put no trust in it agreed, agreed even

Even 03:56
well, i don ́t like you just plain simple, that is true so why should it matter now? what you think is no concern to me if you don ́t agree that ́s what ́s going on in me so just let it be yeah love just turned to hate and of hate i ́m not afraid it is love that raises ire that of course just in my eye and you, if you don ́t agree that ́s what ́s going on in me and i realize that i was just hypnotized listen closely as my thoughts are finally free listen closely cause i ́m ready now to see that i won ́t be what you wanted me to be and because i ́m different you ́re indifferent to me if you stayed and never turned i should really be concerned for you to like me through and through i have to be an asshole too again if you don ́t agree that ́s what ́s going on in me, and my thoughts are free i realize that i was just hypnotized

about

Dark Green Glow tells a conceptional horror story, which is set in a mysterious green glowing forest. This theme is musically underlined with crushing jungle beats, many percussive elements and a lush forest-ambience throughout. Memorable hooks and melodies, as well as a defined Prog-Metal-sound take center stage in our music.
