about
This track has been 'completed' a few months after releasing Forceful Thunder and I haven't touched it since then. I focused on a few other songs in the meantime. In this one, I've experimented some vocal styles, different to the modern "black metal vocals" you usually hear. I've also added an instrumental "epic" intro.
The track is not fully completed, and this isn't the way I imagined myself publishing this track, however; I will explain why I am doing this so soon. Storm of Soul can be considered the continuation of Forceful Thunder. You can say these songs I'm releasing are about a 'journey' of one wandering into the "Forest". The story continues with this new track.
The song requires more work on the drums, a complete re-recording of the vocals and guitars, a bass guitar, more orchestral instruments and a proper mixing. I am publishing this song without all of these done because a while ago my laptop crashed with all of my programs and files, and I am left with pretty much nothing for now. Therefore my recording/mixing etc. will all have to pause until I am able to reclaim my loss. I don't want to seem ignorant or be 'forgotten' at this time so I'm keeping myself active and providing you guys with a little something by sharing this track, which is still of course acceptable to be shared in my point of view. If I wait to perfect this, it will take years to reach my satisfaction. I'm sure nobody would want to wait this amount of time, so I'd rather share what I have in hand rather than keeping you guys waiting. Hope to see you again with something new, COMPLETE, and better news. Until then, stay tuned!
lyrics
The storm reaches deep inside
My bones and veins filled with hate
The stars no longer shine for me
As I'm laying on the cold ground
It's like a dark disease, a sickness in your brain
Makes you feel like you're alright, removing all the sources of pain
You can not think straight, and you will not hesitate
To end your life, as if it's all just a game
Walking through the forest like you're wandering in a dream
Step by step you're coming near a stream
A stream that flows with love but a stream that fills with hate
The emotion you decide to feel is the only choice you must reveal
A silent voice is whispering your name
Telling you mysterious things that make your heart burn in flames
Choosing hate will help you heal but choosing love will make you kneel
Oh from the pain of regret, weakness, sickness, grief
Entrance! To a new world full of life
Life that takes yours away
Escape! The sea of lies and hate
That will destroy your fate
Embrace! The true meaning of time
Time that finds it's way
Erase! All your thoughts of death
While you're still alive
As I walk through this journey alone
I battle with my thoughts in this storm
The sky has left no mercy or light
I can no longer stay alive as the darkness shows me a new world

Werifesteria is highly influenced by such bands as : Wintersun, Arthemesia, Dimmu Borgir, Emperor, Carach Angren and
Windir.
I aim to create my music with a similar style to these bands in their early ages. I enjoy that era of "Melodic/Symphonic/Atmospheric Black Metal" the most and believe it can continue to live as long as we continue to create. That's what I'm here for....more
