The Other Sight

Wurzelwerk This is quite simply a masterpiece. The songs have such complex arrangements and a mix of styles that I've personally heard on a very few albums. An endless shame that this band has split up, but they have without doubt left a milestone of modern metal. Favorite track: My Triumph.

John McKusick This is the best independent album I've heard in a while. All the elements I like in bands like APC, Deftones, and NIN but unique and all their own. Very emotional and brooding music. Great recording quality as well. Favorite track: My Triumph.

Majbritt Levinsen It's been awhile since I listened to this album, and I had forgotten how good this is! Build-ups to die for, mesmerizing drums. Gentle and fierce at the same time... Favorite track: My Triumph.

New Throne 08:50
So we meet again, nature has brought me to life Don’t fake innocence, we raise the forces of dark In this hemisphere I am the only survivor Through this madness I am order and law Here I draw the line you better not step across Forests of old, we wept when we felt this loss I will be the king of all these homes I will be the king of all these thrones Oh and I accept defeat for I am all alone And I will plant this seed to grow my new throne Oh and I accept defeat for it took my throne And I will plant this seed to grow my new hope When I see my throne rise from the ground Then I feel my blood boil Boil in my veins, there is no way I’m bowing for darkness anymore I rise I rise

My Triumph 13:01
Well the words I spoke Opened my eyes when I woke I live in silence A room to contemplate I praise myself and all I have and own They better send you away You're clearly waiting decay You have entered your last call You are intending to fall My message is to you all You have entered your last call No matter what they want If I could I would still do the same If I could You’ve read the book at last If I could I’d tear the book apart I’m not reaching I’m not reaching I will not be the one who’s reaching I will be the one who’s teaching I will not be the one who’s reaching I will be the one who’s teaching

Phantoms 08:21
Hold me someone please hold me I can't stand the cold here Am I on my own now, God tell me. See through every little detail that I come across when I look in the mirror one last time Reflections I see clearly Finally relieved from those waking demons in my hands At last my shadow shows me I am all alone here My phantoms have lead me to despair I am not insane This is not in vain I'm in a cave Born a slave Time is the enemy Jaguars surrounding me The place of fear is just in me
5.
Reverie 10:07
The creeping and the lure Responding to your words I am forever here Waiting for you dear This is my final way This is your final day The waves are missing sound This place turned me around These pictures on your wall Where’ve these people gone Where I exist I will open your eyes eternally Until you wished that someone wants you to obey You miss your soul until I come to call my own what’s mine possessions from your lonely hopes and fears You are nothing but air You are nothing but air I have to let you go Deceitful daydream You are nothing but stone Together all alone I have to give you up My reverie And I am faithful towards you And I am grateful towards you Soon I'll fall into your bliss Cold as stone White as bones Will I escape my world below Cold as stone I call your demons, you're on your own Cold as stone White as bones This is my final hope Cold as stone This is my final rope

about

"Immediately after their debut album 'The Long Now (2011), Grown Below started working on a follow-up, 'The Other Sight', expected to be released in the first half of 2014.

'The Other Sight' continues the path where The Long Now ended. The album revolves around the urge of fulfilment of the individual, which leads to chaos and self-desintegration."

about

Grown Below Antwerpen, Belgium

Grown Below arose from the ashes of Timer in early 2011, continuing the path to the full album The Long Now with the same sound, but more evolved. Grown Below may be influenced by the usual suspects (Cult of Luna, Isis, Tool etc.) but they certainly go beyond being mere epigones. The band signed with Slow Burn Records in june 2011, who released The Long Now in the autumndays of september 2011. ... more
