Perish

I don’t live here anymore,
In this state of mind.
Lost and nameless soldier,
Lucid as red skies at dawn.
Perish the name that call and pulls you in,
The eyes, your eyes that tell.
The pendulum swings indecision,
Listen to the hourglass in final moments.
I don’t want to say the truth,
But its eating me up inside.
Transgressions with a spark,
Ignite where we want to be.
Perish the name that call and pulls you in,
The eyes, your eyes that tell.
The pendulum swings indecision,
Listen to the hourglass in final moments.
Nothing in vain when we perish.
Nothing in vain when we perish.
Nothing in vain when we perish.
Will we all suffer the same fate.

Unusual happenings, Bizarre incidents.
Macabre in nature, I dreamed of you.
Shiver, Shiver
Shiver, Shiver
Timeless menagerie, Impulsive desires.
Strangely familiar, I wanted much more.
Shiver, Shiver
Shiver, Shiver.
Archaic and mystifying
Falter unto the inquisition.
On the altar of my own decision
The curious and strange.
Everlasting flower, Old world helichrysum.
You are new forever more, I dreamed of you.
Shiver, Shiver
Shiver, Shiver
Archaic and mystifying
Falter unto the inquisition.
On the altar of my own decision

Crimson Waves

Simple thoughts lost in translation.
I get lost inside your words.
One last kiss before night fall.
A thousand hours lying in wait.
Crimson waves wash over you.
The past walks with me, It lives in crimson waves.
In crimson waves, crimson waves, crimson waves.
Ritual act my soul wanting.
Emotive as the tale comes alive.
One last wish for flame to catch fire.
A thousand hours lying in wait.
Crimson waves wash over you.
The past walks with me, It lives in crimson waves.
In crimson waves, crimson waves, crimson waves.
I see you in shades of black and white.
Solemn eyes light up his face.
Her flowing hair to catch the night.
A thousand hours in crimson waves.
Crimson waves wash over you.
The past walks with me, It lives in crimson waves.
In crimson waves, crimson waves, crimson waves.
I see you in shades of black and white.
Solemn eyes light up his face.
Her flowing hair to catch the night.
A thousand hours in crimson waves.

Fearless

If you could hear me today, the words in my mouth.
You woke up to play to say such things that tear and cry.
Scour the clouds in search of rain, stripped of all but the taste of your flesh against my tongue.
Excerpts from your dream world, have night of lace and leather wear.
Playing faces in the shadows, candles flicker in the cold still air.
Fearless, Fearless, I loose myself.
Fearless, Fearless, We dance the night away.
If you could hear me today, the words in my mouth.
You woke up to play to say such things that tear and cry.
Scour the clouds in search of rain, stripped of all but the taste of your flesh against my tongue.

Strap On Halo Seattle, Washington
“Strap On Halo's music harkens to 'traditional gothic' that is driven by howling guitars, resonating bass and a haunting female voice.”
Cassandra-Dominion Magazine

fault line
by October Burns Black
supported by 18 fans who also own “Altar of Interim”
New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough.

This album is another chunk of 80's Goth near perfection.

The Veils Of Ending
by Sonsombre
supported by 17 fans who also own “Altar of Interim”
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.

The Spell Between
by Caroline Blind
Swirling goth-rock from the big voice behind '90s outfit Sunshine Blind, featuring a who's-who of dark underground denizens.
go to album
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.

MD133 - CANDELABRE "For to have time is to have wings"
by Candélabre

PERFUMES AND FRIPPERIES
by The Wake
supported by 16 fans who also own “Altar of Interim”
I've enjoyed The Wake since the 90s. The new album feels like a trip to right where they left off! Goth Rock at it's best! I can't wait to see where they go from here!!
