about
"The lamp that lit my dark corner is out."
lyrics
Time has been on my side through all these struggles
Fear and despair give way to quiet expectations
I have expressed my resentments, my envy for the living and healthy
Overcame my anger at those who don’t have to face their end so soon
It’s time for me to say goodbye
Now please just leave me alone
Just leave me alone!
Leave me here
I request limitations
Your lingering presence:
The only thing left
The only thing I need
Leave me here
No more words
To close my eyes forever:
The only thing left
The only thing I need
Leave me here
No more fighting
My rebirth into imagination:
The only thing left
The only thing I need
I bow to you all and take my departure
I have my leave
Brothers and sisters bid me farewell
Your last kind words, my last kind memory
I will wait for you on the other side.

released March 4, 2015
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
