lyrics
We are the wounded lamb
We are the trembling hand
We are the savage host of a dying brand
Heedless martyrs walk with a faulty gait
Forward-faced, unencumbered by fault or fate.
Grace has not long looked our way
(a wasted word)
Squandered our chance once again
(for shame, dear ones)
Nature of Artifice, rather we’d find our bliss
We are the heartless cold
We are the tale untold
We are the sightless sons of a world they sold
Grace has not long looked our way
(a wasted word)
Squandered our chance once again
(for shame, dear ones)
Nature of Artifice, rather we’d find our bliss
Nature of Artifice, rather we’d find our bliss tonight

Written and recorded by A Cloud of Ravens.
Mastered by Jason Corbett at Jacknife Sound.
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

A powerful statement. While there are elements of industrial, darkwave and post-hardcore, dystopiarch is something all its own. thought provoking lyrics as well. omnifaction
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023
