Decipher

by Shadowpainter

supported by
Dirk Radloff
Dirk Radloff thumbnail
Dirk Radloff Besides their obvious instrumental capabilities Shadowpainter are blessed with a very expressive singer. The songs develop dramatic song-structures and melodies, while the music oscillates somewhere between 90s grunge and today's harder alternative rock a la Tool. My personal highlights include the Sax-solo in "Maelstrom", the epic melody of "Decipher" and the surprising Waltz-feel in "Porcelain". Very well made modern Rock from germany and highly recommended. Favorite track: Decipher.

Maelstrom Part 1 departure Part 2 on it's way Part 3 arrival Saxophone: Peter Incze aka Peter Pilotem Part 1 departure Senses are lost Man overboard Hear your begging Here you're fraught Build to destroy Ungrateful Heartless time Whisper See, you all go down You better run and fuck yourself I will follow your Crown Failed to recieve empathy See my eyes me Comes first Born servant mental slave Building Walls Isolation See, you all go down You better run and fuck yourself I will follow your crown Death all around You're going down Part 2 on it's way (instrumental) Part 3 arrival I disppeared once was alive How could this all have been a lie? I've reached for darkness all the time Thought less for me it all was light Ahhhh Ahhhh When is my Arrival in this line I have lost all Time my time Reaching for love These cold stones aligned Singing ...

Decipher 08:14
Hold your breath alone inside the darkness lost in a cage you feel the walls surrounding seek for a dream where you all feel sheltered see how we bleed our swallowed tears still glisten let me feel far too many lies will echo in the past feel a heartbeat fed with stones now catch a lullaby phrases kept the light how small we seem from high up high seek the child once was fed with anger now paralyzed not able to recieve seek for a dream where you once left your youth try to believe you're able to recieve my love my love far too many lies will echo in the past feel a heartbeat fed with stones now catch a lullaby phrases kept the light how small we seem from high up high try to decipher pieces left behind

Void 04:08
Screaming Into the void Seek the path Into my past Striving To heal the scars Time left Inside my heart Won't follow When darkness strikes The hollow My carcass Anger My sacred friend Seek things Lost in our youth Won't follow When darkness strikes The hollow My carcass I hear your voice Left in the dark I scream and bite There was a time I mute the noise Mute all the lies

Porcelain 04:29
Reaching for silence Noise sucks me in I want to break through these I would The meaning that fear paralyzes And divides us in time Hear the bells scream The Howling How Can't you See That We're all the same? Greed's dividing You're lying Sell all our bodies instead And hear my last Whisper As Once written down Want to stay sober I Would The meaning that fear paralyzes And divides us in time

Bolted 04:53
feel the pressure we're all overrated marionettes your threads seem to fade and you're Bolted now reading thoughts of some who stole your youth paranoia is left in all your lies we're gonna die die die die peel all the fruits you stole take all that's left and reach for my hands as you were falling slip Away made of scars breathing for pain and cast away the sun is changing lights will bury your fears as we suck you dry our greedy eyes will catch the doom for you separate in all our self made lies we're gonna die die die die peel All the fruits you stole take all that's left and reach for my hands as you were falling slip Away made of scars breathing for pain and cast away the sun is changing lights will bury your fears as we suck you dry

Insist 06:40
Standing Quicksand forms the floor Praying To an unknown shore We gave away Everything to none Wait to decay Rotten on the floor

Rise Again 05:13
Plastic seals rise upon the shore We're ready to fly let the show begin Bend the coasts we're already dead Feed us with false hope until we're all drowned And when it's done We're all just skeletons and skins Made from the same lies Won't rise again We had the chance to make it right Failed from our own lies Feed us greed feed us all the lies we're ready to line let the march begin Bend the coasts we're already dead Feed us with false hope until we're all drowned And when it's done We're all just skeletons and skins Made from the same lies Won't rise again We had the chance to make it right Failed from our own lies

about

Shadowpainter Giessen, Germany

Shadowpainter are unmistakably influenced by the alternative- / grunge rock sound of the 90ies, but nevertheless progressive, modern and above all extraordinary among current icons of the postrock and metal szene.
Bitter-sweet melancholy and aggressive up to epic outbursts discribe the sound of Shadowpainter probably best.
