Impending Fallout

Lyrics:
There is still a hope
that lies behind
the eyes of some.
Is this the end?
Our final conversation?
This sanctum we built
was all in vain.
It scares the hell out of me,
this impending fallout.
When the sun goes black,
where will we go?

More Alive

Lately it feels like the lies they've been preaching are true.
The shit that you love to watch on TV is good cause they made it for you.
Advertise your greed and you will succeed.
We call it suicide,
they call it business.
A life's not worth much
when it's at a distance.
You want to be famous, but for what?
Controlled by a fake self-image.
When the static calls your name
you can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.
Obey the algorithm.
Let your thoughts deprive.
Post your bluff and refresh til it makes you feel more alive.
And now we're ostracized and compromised.
When we face the daylight, we all play pretend.
Cause we can witness human genocide
and turn off the power like nothing has happened.
You want to be famous, but for what?
Controlled by a fake self-image.
When the static calls your name
you can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.
You want to be famous, but for what?
Controlled by a fake self-image.
When the static calls your name
you can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.
You want to be famous, but for what?
Controlled by a fake self-image.
When the static calls your name
you can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.
You can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.
You can't resist the temptation.
Dissatisfaction never felt so enticing.

Stay Awake
04:24
|

Eyes are burning bright
by fires that you have helped ignite.
And you came just so you could start a fight.
Don't give a fuck about your revolution, right?
Do you think it's justified to spread a lie
by shoving my face into the pavement?
And just cause you think you're right, don't make you right.
You bury yourself with every statement.
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
to control everything that you can't discern.
Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned,
and that's scary for someone who's blind cause their back has been turned.
Stay awake.
We've had enough of the future they sell.
If we wanted to be restrained
we would tie the knot ourselves.
Offended by the sight
of strangers who just want to survive.
You spit on their culture out of spite,
then scream that they violate your rights.
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
to control everything that you can't discern.
Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned,
and that's scary for someone who's blind cause their back has been turned.
And I know that you feel the urge
to control everything that you can't discern.
Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned,
and that's scary for someone who's blind cause their back has been turned.
Stay awake.
We've had enough of the future they sell.
If we wanted to be restrained
we would tie the knot ourselves.
If all hope is lost,
then why are you fighting for
your place in this great hopeless cause?
The irony is not lost on me
Stay awake.
We've had enough of the future they sell.
If we wanted to be restrained
we would tie the knot ourselves.

Flat Earth

Lyrics:
We're all villains in your eyes.
Always looking for someone that you can blame.
But there's no ground beneath your feet,
and your absent evidence is proof enough.
You are dead set
that the facts won't slow you down
and you are consumed.
What if I told you the waves will crash?
Would you drown or swim to the surface?
Even if the truth is all we have,
you'll still drown and you'll bleed and you'll suffocate.
Cause even if you see it, you probably won't believe it.
Before it's too late.
Cause we're all suddenly unified
when it ends.
Do you know
if you're looking through a window
or at a mirror?
Misinformation can't be falsified,
when you make up the outcome as you speak.
When truth becomes whatever you decide,
what's reality?

Ignore the Disarray
03:49

Lyrics:
You'd clutch that book to your chest so tight
if just a slip of your tongue was brought to light.
It won't wash away all the sins you hide.
You won't hang if you don't tip the chair.
You kick the dirt in my face, then call me blind.
I've seen the light, it burns my eyes.
If it's a goddamn sin to live my life,
I've seen the light.
Just do what you're told
and we will cleanse your soul.
God loves all his children,
except the heathens who won't obey.
Ignore the disarray,
just bow your head and pray.
We tell no lies, no deception,
but don't ask too many questions if they're not the right ones.
We will strip you down of your character
and rebuild you in our image.
So, you mumble through
a hymn you never cared to
learn the words to,
as you look up at
your whitewashed messiah.
The doves that used to fly
when the belltower chimed
have fallen on the church steps.
Your crucifix has a withered smile.
Ignore the disarray,
just bow your head and pray.

Bleed

Lyrics:
The bruises don't show,
but the pain is still unbearable.
Don't even wanna face myself,
because it makes me fucking miserable.
Should I strive to be free or
am I better off stuck inside my head?
Where no one sees
and no one knows.
I think I've found a way out,
but I don't know if I can drag myself away from this hysteria.
If you don't heal what hurt you,
you'll bleed on those who never cut you.
I'm scared of change,
but I've been stuck in a place
I don't belong
and I've been strong for far too long.
Wash away the tears
and bite my tongue,
because the night will end
and I must face the world.
Force a smile and make it
believable.

Claustrophobic
03:58
|

It's me against myself again.
I'm sinking lower than I've been.
I'm claustrophobic in my skin,
can only breathe if I give in.
And now I'm longing after you.
Like I'm addicted to playing this part.
It's never done me any good.
Cause when it kicks in,
it feels like everyone is out to grab my throat.
And I know that it's all make believe,
but I can't control myself.
And I'm scared that when it's taking over,
there'll be nothing left of who I really am.
Running from myself,
I always end up getting caught.
It's like there are two wolves trying to rip themselves apart.
Will I surrender to myself, then, if I let them starve?
There's chaos in this structured mind.
Cause now I'm longing after you.
And I'm addicted to playing this part.
It's never done me any good.
But then without you in my mind,
will I still be who I am?
Cause I don't know who I am without it.

Lyrics:
Do the numbers not scare you to death?
Cause they scare the living hell out of me.
Let the children be armed to the teeth.
And if that doesn't work, just do it again and again til it does.
Cause you hope that one day the figures will turn
and the thousands of lives that were given up
will be worth it in your eyes.
We scream for those who can't.
Cause humankind let you keep your gun,
but took away their lives.
All to protect you and I
from being killed by a kid with an unstable mind.
Are these vicious people a threat to you
if they can't pull the trigger?
How can allowing more people to get their hands on a firearm
diminish the death toll?
What happens when frustration gets the best of you
while you carry your gun with your liquor?
You can say you stood your ground and walk away as a free man
with just a death on your conscience.
Tell me how you can be so blind?
Cause all the warning signs were there.
And you're deliberately oblivious
if you think your kids don't know
where your guns are stored.
They'll find it if they want.
Does your gut not wrench by the thought
of seeing your child being brought out in a body bag?
So,
you repeat the words
never again.
And then it happens again.
When this pent-up anger slowly starts to spill
and there is no one who will help you catch the tears,
they'll regret they ever upset you.
Then you'll finally show them all.

Dystopia

Lyrics:
Help me.
Because I don't know where else to turn.
They've erased all that I've learned.
And my bones are broken
from the beating that they gave.
Taught me how I should behave
in their free state.
Tell me that
all hope of a future is still not gone.
Will our children ever run
down these safe streets?
Tell me where do we go from here?
There are no trees in the woods.
They're all burning down like matches.
Tell me, where should I run to then?
Will someone stand where we stood?
We're all burning down like matches.
With just a footprint left to chase,
we run the final human race.
Left to decay and set ablaze.
This was our home.
It happens so fast, it seems impossible to chase it.
Governed by serpents who are too afraid to face that
the earth is the source, but we mistreat it as a resource.
We are the parasite.

Fixation Oslo, Norway
Fixation is a brand-new melodic metalcore band who freely combine electronic elements with stadium rock and metal. Whenever the music reaches the depths of it’s beautiful and soft vulnerability, you’re abruptly hurled back up again by aggressive riffs and bass lines. The result is compelling and massive music that appeals to a generation rather than to fans of one specific genre. ... more

Perhaps a softer, more “pop-forward” album compared to Inmazes and Witness however equally as effective. Vola simply know how to make approachable and great music. 8/10

Every single member of this band is incredibly skilled in their own right, but I love how much they accentuate each other's talents into these masterful tracks. The whole album is excellent. I'm so happy they were finally able to come to my home state and perform. Incredible band, can't wait to listen to what comes next.
