  • TOTEM SKIN - Still Waters Run Deep LP re issue
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    We are glad to bring this album back - this time w/ a slight different artwork. The pre order version is ltd to 100 copies and pressed on GOLD VINYL. The standard version is on black vinyl. Release date is May 15th

    Totem Skin's shivering melodies were created in the deep forests in the outskirts of Borlänge, Sweden; conducted by 6 individuals who poured every drop of passion they could harvest from the bottom of their hearts. The band saw its dawn in the fall/winter of 2012 as a three piece, which produced and recorded two EP’s themselves while adding members as recording went along. The full line-up was completed in March 2013, allowing the band to further expand on their musical horizons.

    “Still Waters Run Deep” is the band’s first full length and their first real documentation since the completed formation. Recorded at the Ranch Production House in Southampton, UK and engineered by Lewis Johns (Goodtime Boys, ex-The Long Haul), the soundscape of the album ranges from raw aggression to doomy heaviness and unsettling guitar melodies. The vocals create an honest and desperate atmosphere, with the dual vocalists screaming themes of nature and problems in life. Intense grinding shares space with quiet and reverent moments, but the sonic landscape is always filled with emotion.

lyrics

At the forest's edge we are
You and I, for decades
Gazing into nothing
Withering to the sounds of a dying world
You're screaming, choking
Tearing yourself asunder
And I stand there gazing into nothing

I’m yearning for silence
A bond that whilom bloomed
I’m wistful for sleep
A bond that we shared from womb
I’m longing for stillness
A bond that time has sent to wither
And the emptiness it brings
A bond that we only fathomed

Indifferent

We go along the trails in the forest
Where we played as children
It's quiet, still and peaceful
No pretense
No province
No prospect
Just you and I,
the silence, the wilderness

But I hoped as always to have your hand in mine
Our hands entwined,
our hands through the end of times
Thoughts lingering on promises unkept,
on words we left unsaid

I always knew that everything was a dream

And now I stand here with rope in hand
The noose tight around my neck
Final thoughts of why

Why I won't take the step
The step into silence
The step into stillness
A step into everlasting nothingness

Adagio830 started in 1997 as a small distro out of my bedroom and a little bit later the first release has been out. The Cole Quintet LP got co-released with various other Diy Labels back then and since then we released tons of records by friends and I´m proud of everything single releases I did over the years.
