Die Weisse Rose - As The Last Of the Rose Petals Are Shattered (Video)

Once again Giorgis Kormikiaris edited a beautiful video. The song As The Last Of the Rose Petals Are Shattered is taken from the album A Martyrium Of White Roses.

Die Weisse Rose is founded in 2001 in Denmark, by Thomas Bøjden.Formed  This musical project was formed as a creative output for documenting various historical events, through what Wagner called “Gesamtkunstwerke” - a total work of art. Combining electronical elements, fieldrecordings and real instruments through an optic that resembles a kaleidoscopical view of history, thus making the music of DIE WEISSE ROSE as indebted to the History Channel and litterature as they are to Throbbing Gristle and Richard Wagner.

Die Weisse Rose has Hover the years collaborated with: Foresta Di Ferro, Allerseelen, :Of The Wand And The Moon:, Blood Axis, Rome

More than concerts, Die Weisse Rose’s live performances ( of Thomas Bøjden and the Misantropical Tabernacle Choir)  should been seen and celebrated as elaborate rituals, where element such as uniforms, burning torches, snippets of old schlägers, segments from documentary films and philosophical proclamations are carefully wowen together by orgies of electronic sounds, violins and accordion and drum beating like a military parade gone terribly astray.

Lux Interna - Nida

Lux Interna crafts aural altars to the inner light. Formed by Joshua Levi Ian and Kathryn Mary, the project has hosted a shifting constellation of talents over the years, each leaving their trace upon the musical landscape. Through tapestries of minor chords, voices, delicate drones
and violent sprawls of sound, Lux Interna has continued to hymn the hidden god with impassioned intensity, seeking fire in the tension between transcendence and immanence.

The song Nida is taken from the album  There Is Light In The Body, There Is Blood In The Sun

Lyrics:

Into the heart of the woods

the light of the sap the face of all things good

in a blue church in Nida

I held Your hand

Your fingers entwined with mine

listen! they are bringing fire

from the next world and songs to sing away

the grey mask of Time

circling I saw the birds weave

together the broken body of G-d

re-membering the Divine

re-membering the Divine

and there crosshatched in

amongst the pooling shadows

I could read the names in the grain of the wood

by the light of Your body

and the flame of Your Tongue

a soft skin of silence

covered over all sad things

and I held You close

looking into the Face of

ALL THINGS GOOD

a gift given

from the heart of the wood

a gift given

from the heart of the wood

and the birds have left the fields but not Her heart

and the birds have left the fields

but not her heart

Enjoy the Silence

A little gem that I have found on YouTube.

Unfortunately no composer is mentioned.

Once again Ira MusiK Love edited a nice video for an excellent tune.

Christian Death - The Drowning

New video for the classic song The Drowning from Christian Death, edited by Giorgos Kormikiaris. Vocals by Rozz Williams, who committed suicide on April 1, 1998 

Christian Death is an American rock band, formed in Los Angeles, California in 1979 by Rozz Williams. With their debut album Only Theatre of Pain (1982), they became a highly influential act, heralding the American gothic rock and deathrock movements.

After having booked a European tour, Christian Death broke up amid band in-fighting and drug abuse. Williams assembled a new version of the band in 1983 by merging with their scheduled opening act, another L.A. rock band, Pompeii 99. This lineup included guitarist Valor Kand, vocalist-keyboardist Gitane Demone and drummer David Glass. The band went on to record their next two albums, Catastrophe Ballet and Ashes, under this lineup.

In 1985, Rozz Williams left Christian Death, in part due to his increasing interest in experimental music and performance art. Valor Kand took over leadership, serving as lead vocalist and songwriter.

During the late '80s, Rozz Williams resurrected his own version of Christian Death, with his wife Eva O contributing guitar as well as vocals. Billing themselves as the original Christian Death, they were rejoined by first-album guitarist Rikk Agnew for a 1989 tour of Canada. The band was signed to Cleopatra Records, and released The Iron Mask, Skeleton Kiss EP, The Path of Sorrows and The Rage of Angels under the Christian Death name.

Up for three days

Up for three days

Down under ground for six more

Incisions cannot penetrate my feet

Tripping, gliding, falling numbly

Hands held together with unwanted skin

Ripping, hiding calling dumbly

You, in houses of mud

You, in gutter sleep-love

You, born to slaughter-swathed gloves

You dressing daughters and sons

Like you, I am broken and fragile

Like you, I am tasting my heart for the first time

Like you, I am feeding on slumber

Like you, I've left my eyes far behind me

Down for the count I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning

The eighth day

Sleep, the eighth day

Clawed my way back to the first

No gentle fingers collapse on my eyes

Weeping, prying, struggling blindly

There's no sanity standing me back on my feet

I'm in an empty room

I'm burning books from you

I'm lost in bed with you

Breaking these mirrors to end all I've seen

Like you, I am broken and fragile

Like you, I am tasting my heart for the first time

Like you, I am feeding on slumber

Like you, I've left my eyes far behind me

Down for the count I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning

I'm still drowning
