"The beginning and the end" by Anathema

Anathema:"The beginning and the end", (from the album "Weather systems", 2012):

Inside this cold heart is a dream
That´s locked in a box that I keep
Buried a hundred miles deep
Deep in my soul in a place that´s surrounded by aeons of silence

And somewhere inside is the key
To everything I want to feel
But the dark summer dawns of my memory
Are locked in a place that can never be

Can someone please show me the way?
Can someone please help me?
For I cannot see and the silence is raging

Silence
Silence
Fade into silence

Memory
Memory
Inside is the key to a memory

(lyrics: Daniel Cavanagh)

(In the early days of my blog I was mentioning, that my favourite metal-album with no doubt is Anathema´s "The silent enigma" (1995), (and I guess it always will be :-)). A more than great atmospheric doom metal-masterpiece, which takes the listener into a....erm....fascinating state of darkness and hopelessness! Many years have passed since "The silent enigma" was seeing the light of day :-), and the Liverpool-guys/girl are definitely no longer in the doom-area....Now we are talking a musical style, which can be called something like "atmospheric progressive rock with well-hidden metal-parts"...:-)

Latest Anathema-album "Weather systems", which is actually brand new, is currently finding its way to my ears, and it´s so great experiencing the band still keeping the flame high and making otherworldly music!

One of the most recommendable songs on "Weather systems" is in my, (and I suppose many others), opinion track number seven....the very fine "The beginning and the end".

Kind regards
