To perhaps be Included in Empires Fall.....Work In Progress
Penalty
Embrace The Man without a face, take time to illuminate to trace find a line make a mark and draw, distraught pin the tail on the donkey.
Pinpoint the pinnacle of hate, I'll tear you down, rip you out of an unmarked grave and amass gilded spinsters to create a paradigm of faith to
Inebriate it all.
Take Sides in the mirror refracted.
Send the guards to the gates of the stronghold.
Burn it down till the ash is reflected in the sky so dead and black that I will suck out the stars
Cry fate To Instil a sense of relief when I am turning unto ye and say bow your heads I am love, I'm in Love
I'm A Love....I am Love..Love me
Take sides with the man without a face
accumulate a resume run sick with distaste
I'm prepared to sacrifice my state if you're prepared to lead me into an early grave, but,
dig it low cause I'm taking you with me
I'm down Low with my public face, I bend low when you're trying to replace I'm in and out of grace like the falling state, and all I want is just a little more.... All I want is just a little more faith
Not Now....No I'll never see you no more
On and on and on we go

- Desolation Folk

@anthonygreentree: Medieval....you are always so kind, and sure you are a bard yourself so that is a compliment most high

This is great. Love the shouting. Intense and really well-made.
Comment by mr dodo
Really like some of the contrasts between loud and quiet - bass and vocals are nice (and everything else)

Comment by Mazin Ed | GEM
Love the dirtiness on the track! Make sure when you do a final mix, that you keep that raw exterior of filth! It does this track super good, as I'm sure wolves, by nature love to play in the dirt! :) , but their guard hairs on thei fur repel dirt, so they always look clean. Anyway dude! Awesome track as always!
Comment by Mazin Ed | GEM
I get a hint of the Red hot Chilli peppers! That is some hot spicy compliment! In other words dude! this is Fecking awesome!

@thelofijanitor: I am a Lazy wolf when irt comes to mixing, and audio surgery...very Lazy, time better spent Yelping...but I am trying to clean up my act .....Thankyou Man....the distinguish statement is a massive compliment, huge even ......a humble thankyou
Comment by Bill Ryan
ah, i've been in hiding a bit lately, trying to explain myself and my lyrics on the EHI sight, and I needed a wolves fix. I'm loving the vitrol and the anger with the sledgehammer synths. refracted mirrors and men without faces, great stuff my friend, but i expect nothing less at this point. have you thought about accenting the 'hit' points throughout the first half with some sub bass? just something to add to that 'oomph' to the synths? i'm not saying it needs it, more a 'wouldn't it be cool if?' thought. i love the piano refrains, and the fade in/out towards the end section.(great buildup there as well! more guitars please! they sound great)
Comment by Surfchop
Ahhh.. little more harsh than I've come to expect from you. love where the direction this one takes at around 1:19. sugar-stoned puddle-splashing through the crayola suburbs.

@ellie-st: There are people Elizabeth that you always want to hear from good or bad, you my dear fall squarely into that Saint Shaped role.....americanyness is what happens when an Irishman tries to annunciate, normally I just slur it out ......Thankyou for the picture of your home life that the two of you have painted, makes me feel better now when I drop by, Chris said you Shouted across the room and we both know that that is the only "proper way to communicate".....thankyou for the favourite, it's bought you unlimited Primals credit on the Jukebox
Comment by Little Weird Orchestra
I love Wolves's new music direction
Comment by cyramorgan
ahhh the wolvish brilliance..... this one is immense. A powerful journey in only four minutes.
Comment by I Are Toady
great combination of sounds! the guitars are a great touch, and that first little break was a nice little unexpected bit of awesomepants! your vocal style here kind of reminds me of prick. very raw. as always, very admirable producing, sir! wolf paints toad green (you know, with envy. trying to be clever here... how's that working out for me?)
Comment by Sondre Sætaberget
Fooking great! I love this wilder style, agree with Chris, it reminds me of Radiohead. Well done!
