lyrics

I’ve planted the seed within myself
Tended to the earth in which it lay
I’ve suffered the ceaseless storm
Determined to uproot what I’ve made

Beset upon this path, lone wanderers
We face the world in isolation
A cruel joke to a species that craves connection
Solipsist confinement
But like two passing stars in the cold of space,
Our gravity can alter our fate
Although our time may be ephemeral,
The brands you leave will remind me

Across the chasm, I’m reaching for you
A spark of light in this lifeless shade
And just for a moment, I can feel you there
The warmth like a memory; I’m not afraid

If you have need, I will find you
Across the rift, I will guide you

As time goes on, we may drift apart
But I still hear you, I can’t lose heart

I won’t forget the words you said
I am in bloom

On ne pourra certainement pas reprocher à Subnuba de vouloir aller trop vite : si le groupe annonçait la sortie prochaine d'un album avec le single Ascending Light, Distant Pixel ne sortira que trois ans plus tard. Et à l'écoute de cette pépite, je dirai qu'on ne pourra pas reprocher grand-chose à Subnuba tout court. Le trio a travaillé d'arrache-pied et ça s'entend : le death metal technique est exceptionnel, aussi bourrin que fantastique avec ses arpèges électroniques de science-fiction ! Jordan Vauvert
