Todesbonden
 www.todesbonden.com

With the first Todesbonden CD "Sleep Now, Quiet Forest", the American female singer Laurie Ann Haus invite us to a magical journey in the world of Gothic music and definitely we have no right to decline it. Laurie sings with a nice "operatic" voice producing"Arabian" voices a la Lisa Gerard, while the music is dark and slow.

Selected Lyrics for this Month...


Edenbridge - Paramount

When voices trail away
Into silence gone
Impassioned I may stray

Boundless and pristine
The miracle unseen
The windows of the soul caught in between

[Pre-Chorus:]
Wonder
Home free I am
Come closer to my heartbeat
And kiss my tears away
Not once in a blue moon

[Chorus:]
Don't turn away
Beyond my dream
You're paramount to anything
You have the midas touch to save infinity
Come rain or shine
Forever mine
You're paramount in your design
A hope of stardust left in time

My passions running high
Going round the bend
Mirages mystify

One time we gave our vow
The time to keep is now
So say goodbye to "holier-than-thou"

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

One hope
One fate
One life
Await

[Chorus]

I live and I breathe you
So come to allure me by and by
I feel and I follow you
Cause you don't leave me highland dry


The Verve - Love is Noise

Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles that are made in China?
Feel the bright prosaic malls
And the corridors that go on and on and on

I was blind - couldn't see
We are one incomplete
I was blind - in the city
Waiting for light wind to be saved
Cause love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again

Will those feet in modern times
Understand this world's affliction
Recognise the righteous anger
Understand this world's addiction?

I was blind - couldn't see
What was here in me
I was blind - insecure
I felt like the road was way too long, yeah
Cause love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again, again, again, again, again

Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that you're feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again, again


Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles made in China?
Will those feet in modern times
See the bright prosaic malls?
Will those feet in modern times
Recognise the heavy burden
Will those feet in modern times
Pardon me for my sins
Love is noise
Come on
