about
"No, not me, it cannot be true!"
lyrics
The barricades are standing as a shield against your songs
Towering walls to save us from endless lamentations
Do not try to fool me, for I will not be deceived
I am not smiling my troubles away
They say where one ends, the other begins
Death is the destination we all share
Am I leaving?
Am I banishing my fears?
Am I in awe of my demise?
Am I defending the illusion?
Are they lying to me?
Am I lying to myself?
What will it take to prevent this tragedy?
It cannot be me!
This story is not done!
For I am immortal!
I just can’t keep staring into the sun!

Inspired by "On Death and Dying" by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and the 5 Stages of Grief
Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta
This review is long overdue. This album right here is the album that finally pulled me out of the "commercial" music world and into the world of the raw, experimental, and sincere. An amalgamation of everything I love about post-metal and hardcore taken to a mathy, heavy, ambient extreme. brineryte
Screamo, post-rock, and a little black metal meld together for Virginia quartet Infant Island's signature immersive and melancholy sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2020
