Ashes (2005) track 3
Welcome, my friend
(Now) It's you and I
Do you sense the eye that watches you?
Can you feel her muted scream?
This is our very own horrid dream
Can you hear her hollow cry?
From the other side
You can't see her - you can't reach her
But you feel her watching you
Now she sings her lullaby
The sun has died
This is the voyage that never ends
A black light
The lost souls are craving
Clinging to their last glimpse of hope
The restless wont leave you alone
You cannot set them free
The blood flows
Your fear grows
Awaiting an accident
Veiled eyes
See right through your darkened mind
You cannot set them free
The song of demons plays on the wind
Can you hear the wretcheds call?
Their shuffling feet
Your pounding heart
Now you know you're falling
Chanting words you do not catch
Their cries for help you never sensed
An organic mass of despair
This nightly mare
They cry your name, which is silence
They play their game, which is violence
Unsound.

Like I said, its just because I'm not into that kind of metal. If I was then I'd love it and there is nothing all that wrong with it. I actually really love illumination and rubicon, just because they seem to be the band's most conceptually complex and sophisticated albums. But I like the earlier stuff for very different reasons, my point being that all of them are too hard to compare on a deep level and thats great! I don't like a band that does the same thing over again like sirenia's AEFE11 years ago

To me Illumination is the worst...it bores me except for 3 songs that I absolutely love. Ashed would be my 4th favorite after Widow's Weed my 3rd..I find Ashes to be as interesting and dark and gothic as Ww..maybe not as beautiful but its amazing..its even more preogressive..I think its beautiful and perfect for itself. Plus Osten sings more often and ive always liked him more than Viveke and the new black vocals and heavier moments after very calm and gloomy moments is something I love!11 years ago

Ashes is probably the worst in my opinion but thats just because of a difference in taste, its a beautiful album altogether.11 years ago

I want to agree with you but in all honesty, all the albums are too different to compare. The first two were very similar, having stereotypically gothic lyrics and elements, with BTV being much darker, WOG took all that and fused it with harsh industrial elements and lyrics about religion and the first world, ashes took a death metal approach with lyrics generally about mental disorder and the most recent 2 being calm but heavy with almost new age styles and being about human psychology and war.12 years ago

Almost sounds like "Blashyrkh"......Immortal? Probably not, wishful thinking...12 years ago

@JaimeVerdugo96 Unless someone understands what he's saying or you ask the songwriter, you won't know. I checked the album booklet and the lyrics start with "Welcome my friend", sorry.13 years ago

@imaginary92 Actually, the harsh vocals on Illumination were performed by Vorph from Samael.13 years ago

This album is a great piece of metal, it's very original. I've never listened to an album that sounds like Ashes.14 years ago

I thought that was Samael's vocalist who did the grolws in the 3 songs of Illumination...14 years ago

The third is In The Wake, a bonus track which is according to me a real masterpiece. Anyway you could just try the other albums on my channel...there are the playlists with full albums...'cause I'm always curious to know what people think of anything regarding Tristania, and this is no exception ;)14 years ago

Well i dont have Ashes and Widows Weed yet..so I cant make a full judgement yet..but to me World of Glass is a perfect album,Beyond the Veil comes close,and it has a perfect gothic atmosphere and Illumination is really awesome!!14 years ago
Griefshire16
Oh and actually it isnt Kjetil the one growling on Illumination,it is a guest growler,the singer from the band Samael! ;) I just dont remember his name..hehe xp. Oh and you said "the 3 songs on Illumination" Which is the other? I only know Mercyside and The Ravens with growls,which is the 3th?14 years ago
imaginary92
Yes, I know them, I just didn't remember it was him... I think he has been good on World of Glass, and Kjetil is great on Ashes and the 3 songs he growled for Illumination, just like Morten has been great on Widow's Weeds and Beyond the Veil. I think each album's just different from the others, and each one needed different moods, that's all. And my favourite album stays Widow's Weeds. It somehow gives me the idea of perfection...14 years ago

@imaginary92 Yeah the singer growling on World of Glass (actually my favorite album by them) was Ronny Thosen the singer from Trail of Tears,you never heard of them?? and honestly I think Ronny is a better growler than Morten,maybe not on Tristania,but gererally!! Oh and I really think that World of Glass is their best album,it is perfect!!14 years ago
imaginary92
No, I don't think so. Kjetil is amazing, he just had a different way of growling. He probably wouldn't fit on the previous albums, but on Ashes he's just perfect, and that's the same for those 3 songs in Illumination. I don't think I could like someone else doing them. And by the way, I don't know if everybody knows that on World of Glass it wasn't Morten growling but a man from another band, 'cause Morten had left already. Though that album is commonly thought to be their best ;)14 years ago

Ya I think Tristania was heavier with Morten's vocals.14 years ago

I liked tristanias Death metal vocals at the time they were sung by Morten Veland. The new growler(s) do not catch the atmosphere I felt when listening to Morten's growls. But I like the choirs and Vibeke's voice.Related Videos
