Where Silence Dwells

by PSILOCYBE LARVAE

supported by

David Fischer [Instructions/information]: album contains an interesting, elegant and at some points exotic mixture of melodic death metal and doom, magnificently enriched with clever use of electronic elements of varying intensity. Vocals are of varied, tasteful styles, but impressive and well-executed throughout.
[Warning]: in case of auditive absorption, will have to be put on considerable rotation for a prolonged amount of time. Listener discretion is advised.
Thanks for the code, this is fvcking sick! Favorite track: SORVALI CEMETERY.

©ough©ool Black metal core with gothic sensibilities. What a beast of an album. Plenty of melodic moments, but the brutal aggression & great riffs is what makes this such a memorable listen... So glad to have found Psilocybe Larvae... what a great name

...the percussion & double bass on Nothingness fucking destroys my heart Favorite track: THE FLAME OF DYING LIFE.

starvynth "Where Silence Dwells is a very enjoyable and easily replayable record, and one that shows that Psilocybe Larvae remain a relevant entity despite a prolonged period of line-up changes and inactivity."

All goes to darkness All falls to chaos Life goes to darkness Life brings the madness Down came the shade Turned into the stone I forgot my name And I lost my faith Keep the flame When your soul is in exile Keep the flame Keep the flame of dying life Out of the light Spread the fire How can we break free from this terrible reality? Give up everything And find your destiny Our spirits are Never far away Keep the flame When your soul is in exile Keep the flame Keep the flame of dying life All goes to darkness All falls to chaos Life goes to darkness Life brings the madness

Delusion! It comes back softly from behind It takes the shapes of resurrected memories It’s hard to be alone with yourself You know, And I run to nowhere Feed the fire of my insanity The living nightmare Look within yourself And find there only misery, only misery Confusion! And again I run on the tangled trail To find a shelter among the deserted walls It’s hard to be alone with yourself You know, And I run to nowhere Feed the fire of my insanity The living nightmare Look within yourself And find there only misery, only misery A deadly struggle will take place I’m at war with this reality Only misery, only misery, only misery, only misery

I close my eyes Haunted by blurred memories Curled into a ball I'm staring at the wall in an empty room Give me a chance for life Give me a chance of fate… If I could stay with you! I betrayed my hopes The dreams were sent to trap them all I left behind unspoken words That could you hurt Give me a chance for life Give me a chance of fate… If I could stay with you! I'm staring at the wall … Haunted by blurred memories... It’s a dark room of memories you afraid to come to The mind falls asleep and monsters are born Give me a chance for life Give me a chance of fate… If I could stay with you!

It must be fear in our veins That burns us from within The pain lasts long The days go by We stay alone! No god! No sign! Our demons take our life and drink our death Our gods give us faith and make us deadly blind The inner darkness fills our hearts Get inside the inner darkness Embrace the night Under the guise of virtue We hide the lie of our thoughts Beyond the gates of consciousness There is no beginning There is no end Our demons take our life and drink our death Our gods give us faith and make us blind The inner darkness fills our hearts Get inside the inner darkness Embrace the night What calls our mind to dive into this endless deep well of ache? Go within! Embrace the night! Embrace the night! It must be fear in our veins That burns us from within That burns us! The pain lasts long The days go by We stay alone! No god! No sign! No sign!

DEAD DREAMS 04:11
Where is the way to forgiveness? It’s lost in the darkness of thoughts Going down a vortex Venom drags into dead dreams Rebirth, growth, decay and re-death It’s all sleeping away Wake up again in dead dreams Beneath this world is nothing Beneath this world is death Stay away! Plunging into a downward spiral Of suffering and chaos Dead souls being drowned Into a fiery void It’s all sleeping away Wake up again in dead dreams Beneath this world is nothing Beneath this world is death Stay away! Locked in an empty shell The soul sleeps in a forgotten tomb Dead dreams… dead dreams

A cold cutting wind I’m desperately trying to win To escape the past That lives within My eyes have seen The ghost of Sorvali My mind has cleared I felt my thoughts rush to Sorvali Our guests remain unseen Only the wind can speak to them Almost unreal They stand in the still…and wait I found myself Caught in time Walking away From the cemetery Our guests remain unseen Only the wind can speak to them Almost unreal They stand in the still…and wait How does it feel to lose all things you dreamed about? Scanning the horizon I put the spell Searching for the answers I cannot tell My eyes have seen The ghost of Sorvali My ghost of Sorvali

Make the step, never to return Take the key and you will turn into a stone Silent sphinx! Give me the key to eternity I was so close to solving out this mystery Of your smile If you want to pass this point alive Now it’s time to test your faith Everything is quiet in this place A sphinx has taken up its abode there Silent sphinx! Give me the key to eternity I was so close to solving out this mystery Of your smile A smiling sphinx looks at me She keeps the secrets of what shall be Everything is quiet in this place A sphinx has taken up its abode there A silent sphinx looks at me! A silent sphinx looks at me!

Burn! My naked skin is burning out Cold! I feel the cold near the sun High! So high my flight and how fast the fall God! I have no hope to return Like a walking dead, the faceless one I see no light next to the sun How long it takes to get to the sky and cross the line There is no light next to the sun There is no light Burn! Burn my wings and steal my mind Like mad, I run away from the sun Vain is your prayer when death comes 'round And again time blows promises away Burn and set me free! Burn and set me free! Set me free Like a walking dead, the faceless one I see no light next to the sun How long it takes to get to the sky and cross the line There is no light next to the sun There is no light Burn! Suffer!

Blessed be the dead In their hiding place Not a soul is there No deliverance The encounter with nothingness The sky has fallen And bleeding The tree of life has dried out The tree of life has saved us The sky has fallen And bleeding Don’t blame the sky For being deaf The bane of thy existence Will last forever The encounter with nothingness You are doomed to encounter The ultimate nothingness The sky has fallen And bleeding The sky has fallen The sky… The tree of life has dried out The tree of life has saved us The tree of life has dried out The tree of life has saved us

A beam of light has erased my mind No one left here in the dusk Out of the depths I cry to you Where silence dwells I pray for you I’m a bird in the last flight I'm out of reach The final judgment Into the unknown Don’t leave me now Don’t steal my light I’m falling down To rise above I’m out of time, mute and isolated No one left in this doomed world Out of the depths I cry to you Where silence dwells I pray for you Like a bird in the endless flight I’m out of time Trying to reach out To distant stars Don’t leave me now Don’t steal my light I’m going down To soar up Behind the veil of dark clouds A new day is buried alive Behind the shield of dark clouds The nightmares hid in my dreams
