When
you find a song ----
Hi my Readers! I have a little surprise for you. A song.
And not a song extracted from one of the many albums we can find in
stores or that we can order . A song hidden in the net. A song like a
stone that should signify: once there was a band. One single song
left in the page of a band that split up 4 years ago, just before
entering the studio:Greygap. A track in a page that practically never begun and
never will be finished. A song like the only one element of this site. I
found it through surfing many links of Black Metal bands, most of them
underground or still not so well known.
Oh but attention, the song i propose and that has really impressed me
is a kind of Black that will appeal to many, cause it has
atmospheric and melodic elements and a touch of crunchy heavy riffs
suitable for every Metaller. An addictive song of depression, melancholy
and solemnity. Vocals are very evil, the soundscape is emotional and
intense, it goes from an uptempo attack full of decadence, to
spheric and slow waves of sorrow, embedded in a frame of nightmare
with temperament . When i reached this page and i clicked
"enter" i would have never imagined that the only result would
have been listening to a track. Nothing else if not an
e-mail address. Thanks and hail to Valuk for having answered to me and
for having taken the time to tell me a bit the story of Greygap. In
these latest 4 years, Greygap 's 3 members have followed different paths
and are actually involved in other projects. Valuk in particular is
engaged in a Death Metal act that is about to record its first MCD
or CD this summer. So Valuk :"The Greygap site...it was
meant to be the official
Mp3 quality apart, this song has quickly become a "friend" of mine. Often i listen to it when i work till late at night. A dark companion. Eh yes ...mysteries of internet navigation: among lots of crap material , you can find lost fascinating isles. No, my readers, beautiful songs are not always in stores or executed during concerts by signed or underground bands. Some are hidden in the hearts of those who believed in an ideal, many are wasted, and forgotten. But sometimes they can be rescued totally by chance, stones can be removed, in particular when they are virtual ones . Some people could think that Greygap is a German band that tries to play Norwegian Atmospheric Black, or that this song sounds like "this, this other and that one"...well patience, they know everything and sorry for disturb, but i wonder weather they will ever able to find a stone...a song. Or do they always prefer the manufactured ones?
