The single is out now in Finland! Here’s the lyrics:
Tears of Autumn Rain
It’s autumn night, the pale moon reveals my emptiness
And my hollow wrath and fear inside
I close my eyes to sense her nightly lust once again
But my rage and thirst won’t fade awayThe nightly mist, the scent of autumn in my heart
I can hear the winter’s song again
My will of life falls away like golden leaves
I’m just a flame who dies in shadesLet me feel your pain, tears of autumn rain
Words of blood on the shore: “There is light no more”
Freezing gale of the night silenced the stream of life
Lay us down to sleep on the crimson leaves(Music: Kylmänen, Lyrics: Puolakanaho & Veteläinen, Arr: Eternal Tears of Sorrow)
We’re not superstitious people – well, most of us aren’t, anyway – but there seems to be a curse in the air that keeps on taking a toll on us. Nothing too serious, mostly technical stuff such as really weird-acting instrument strings that make our tuners go bezerk. But anyway, we’re still ahead of our timetables. And what’s important: the songs sound good and I mean it. But oh boy, aren’t we happy when we get this job done..
Most of the instrument tracks have been finished, excluding some guitar and bass tracks (and, obviously, most of the keyboard tracks as well). Once those have been done, it’s time to move on to the vocal tracks. We hope the recording sessions to end in about two weeks..
It’s been an exciting week for us. On Monday, we started the final recording session for the forthcoming album with half a dozen of brand new songs. And today, as I already mentioned in the previous post, the forthcoming single can be prelistened at MySpace.
As usually, we started recording drums, which went very smoothly and nicely. I’m sure that Juho (like the rest of us) will be excited to hear what you guys & gals think of his drum tracks. For us, they sound damn good.. Just wait and hear!
However, there seems to be some sort of a curse upon us with this album. Nothing big, nothing serious, just a series of unfortunate events and things that have occured to us. For example, I caught a nasty stomach flu last weekend, so on Monday, I just rest rested on the studio sofa waiting to feel better and played some demo guitars. But I’m ok now..
Anyway, you can already preorder the forthcoming single!
