As the walls be razed, as they dissolve
Gaze beyond the past, as we recall
Illusions masked in this lie we call time
Constructs of man be damned
A cage of swords confines
To find where we belong in this overland
This landscape, ever fraught, erodes
A sojourn ever wrought
no breach for escape
Rise now, together, rapt as we roam
To emerge unscathed, with keen resolve
To converge in grace, do souls evolve?
Confusion is a chasm dark, from which we climb
Parameters long held, lay undefined
To find where we belong in this overland
This landscape, ever fraught, erodes
A sojourn ever wrought
no breach for escape
Rise now, together, rapt as we roam
We see the night as it is, and the day that follows
here we've tapped the sphere again-
to lift those that may wallow, alone.
Outstanding electro-infused darkwave from the voice of NYC goth progenitors Fahrenheit 451. With NOIR, Athan Maroulis, and co. keep the dark muse pedestaled, replete with a sublime Fad Gadget tribute. A Cloud of Ravens
Albie Mason’s profound, atmospheric soundscapes steer as much toward the classics as they do new, bleak pastures. A go-to artist for modern gothic. A Cloud of Ravens
It's so hard to pick just one favourite track. The whole album is just so magical, so special!
It's like a warm shroud of enveloping, nourishing darkness. Onyx Tomb
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023
