Winds - neoclassical metal for the existentialist idealist

Post by Hedge90 »

I just remembered this band, having listened to them some time ago and really liking their music. This time around I also read their lyrics, and found that they all deal with metaphysics and spiritual existentialism. The music itself is top notch, 10/10 in my opinion and doesn't resemble anything around, and the lyrics are masterful too (though pretty dark).

I wholeheartedly recommend anything they ever made, but here's my current favourite track:



A Moment for Reflection

A shadow covers me
I see a distant star in the cold sky
For a single moment, time stands still and becomes an eternity of lost dreams
I'm looking at that dark place, somewhere out there in the universe
I awake from my trance: reality is still intact, still unharmed and unbroken
Not even my last resolve can change its will

Each moment ahead is completely in the dark
We know nothing of what's to come and fragments of memory is our only gift
I take a step further into the night, having remembered, but still I remain

The source of this design is unknown,
Yet walking in circles seems to have meaning somehow

Know that one, that guy is a genious. The pastor, on the other hand, makes me feel like he's the Antichrist himself.
