Against The Spirits empezó con muchas fuerzas, desde luego que sí, el hecho de que acarreasen con un notable toque proudz dada la formación de la banda nos hizo, o al menos a mi, estar pendientes de las novedades sobre el grupo, esperar ansioso su primer disco y asistir con todas las ganas del mundo a su concierto – vease la foto: ¡era una guardería aunque no lo parezca! – lamentablemente una lesión en el brazo de un miembro les ha hecho apartarse de los escenarios y en general de la actividad del grupo.
En su MySpace hay cuatro canciones para escuchar, y tienen a la venta un vinilo… que si mi toca discos funcionase seguro compraría, pero un toca discos nuevo vale mucho dinero… : )
Hoy no se por qué, será por la noticia del «retorno» de proud’z, he recordado este grupo y he decidido poneros las letras (en inglés).
El grupo, o al menos Merche – la voz – sigue una filosofía Straight Edge.
Y sin más; las letras:
Beneath the remains:
You’re still in front of the mirror, looking for the answers you need. You’re still living in the past, beneath the remains of your life. Hearing echoes in your head, dictates you how to live. Praying hands waiting for the light of salvation. It’s up to you, to make it real or lick your wounds. It’s up to you, to make it real or live forever in pain. Strife for the better, or be lost forever. Struggle to rise, or be lost forever. It’s up to you, to make it real or lick your wounds. It’s up to you, to make it real or live forever in pain. Forgiveness (x2). This poisoned burden, breaking your soul into a thousand pieces. Spreading your arms while looking to the sky, waiting for redemption.
Time to rise:
Screaming at a wall, you refuse to listen. Your mind is fuckin´closed. Denying change you put yourself in a dead end. Now is your time to rise!! Consumed by sorrow and regret, but too proud to change. You bury your head in the sand. Now is your time to rise!! How can you be so blind? Why are you closing your eyes? You have got the answers you need. Demons in your head, demons is your heart. You don´t fight for yourself. No struggle, no heart, beaten by destiny. Never trying, hard enough, playing the victim, ignoring your worth. I´m just sick of your fuckin games. (x2) Now is your time to rise!!
Broken promises:
You kiss goodbye to your past, as you leave behind what once keep you alive. I can´t believe what you fuckin´become. Where are your words? Where are your dreams? Where is your ambition to be free? Where is your heart that makes you life beat? Souls once on fire, now turned into ice. You kiss goodbye to your past, as you leave behind what once keep you alive. I can´t believe what you fuckin´become. Where are your words? Where are your dreams? Where is your ambition to be free? Where is your heart that makes you life beat?Souls once on fire, now turned into ice. It´s your choice!! (coros x2) Souls once on fire, now turned into ice. (x2) You kiss goodbye to your past, as you leave behind what once keep you alive. I can´t believe what you fuckin´become.
Still believe:
Open your mind and your heart, will you learn something from this? The worth of this effort, the path set will you learn something from it? A place for the kids that never fit, in a world that want us down
We search for our own way, not afraid of what others think. Just trying to be ourselves, refusing all the lies Speaking our minds, we stood apart from the rest No matter what it gets in our way this is something we can hold No matter what it gets in our way this is something we can trust This means so much to me, i still believe, i still believe… Don’t fall short, put all your heart in this Don’t fall short, put all your blood in this (x2).
