Pale skin fading away underneath midnight-blue sky.
Your dress with flowers blending in with the trees – grass beneath a hopeful gesture. Smoke from your lips making me sweat. You’re disappearing with the light – panic sets in. An image still exists beneath the veil of the night, barely focused.
Your face is familiar,
but is it only because I think about it all the time
the sun burns bright the image in my head?
Or do I really see your face, just pale
and blended and faded, for what it really is?
It only looks how the light wants it to look. You’ve become a ghost. You haunted me, now I’m haunting you. Holding on to every word you said and every look you gave, but still never enough. Skin like an atlas. Read every page. Followed every map. Coming close to you was like coming close to the truth. Lost myself inside myself, but I can’t stop looking for you.
Broken mirror
inside my head reflects
hallway photographs
of you in a white dress.
Your body of
terribly beautiful memories
that shape of our history. (x2)
You had better reasons to be afraid than I ever did.
The way you look at me. Exhale the words you breathe. You don’t say it enough. Just say it out loud.

Aggressive, intense, extreme music (punk, hardcore, metal) should be raw and bullshit free, stripped of self-indulgent "mood setting" riffs and arrangements to produce its effect. PUNCH and "They Don't Have to Believe" is a paradigm of this ethos 'par excellence' as they say. _teeth

French Screamoの中でも2000年代を代表する存在、Daitroの2009年アルバム『Y』が2020年に再発! どうやら2000年代再評価の流れは止まりそうにない。だが当時の激情バンド達の扱いを思うとようやくその評価軸が定まったようにも思う。むしろDaitroの表現、Funeral Dinerの表現、そしてkillieの表現の根底に共鳴していたものが2010年代のポリコレ時代を経て価値を取り戻しているようにすら感じる。白か黒か、正義か悪か、その先にお互いが理解しあえる世界は訪れるのか?それは我々ひとりひとりの行動次第、それぞれの日々の蓄積。その一歩を歩み出すことだ。表現の根底にある思想、主張を音に落とし込む過程において彼らの進化は必然だったと思う。当たり前のメッセージを伝えるために、遠回りをしながら激情を振るいにかけていく。最後まで個人を信じる彼らの表現は美しく儚い。 MZTN
