Communic´s "At dewy prime"

Communic:"At dewy prime", (fra albummet "Waves of visual decay", 2006):

The vision was a test of deprived physical strength
Dipped in the ocean to be born again
My soul was naked without a surface
Then fingers folded around me and gave me a shell
This ship on its travel carried meaningful thoughts
Travelled over me and left their minds
Then a shadow unbound me and stretched me with skin
And adorned my soul with the memories of them

Sailor, sailor burning bright
On the stormy sea at night
Golden heart and undying pride
Their heart lies buried in a bay of Noeway

Bring back the memories bring me back in time
Bring back the colors and the scent of meadow lands
Bring back the memories bring me back in time
Bring back the colors and the scent of meadow lands

At dewy prime
Bring back the souls of the dead
At dewy prime - Bring back the souls
At dewy prime
Bring back the souls of the dead
At dewy prime - Bring back the souls

Bring me back in time to their homeland
Bring back their souls together with me
Bring back their souls to their homeland
Bring me back in time together forevermore...

In remembrance of this kind
That once came to round our land
What immortal hand of time
Made a frame and locked the symmetry

Our eyes contemplate
A transmission to the soul
Spectacle of this universe
The night veils its sadness in bloom

And one day will come
Suppress all the dark thoughts
Spirits of our destructive time
Even into plains of ether

Bring back the memories bring me back in time
Bring back the colors and the scent of meadow lands
Bring back the memories bring me back in time
bring back the colors and the scent of meadow lands

At dewy prime
Bring back the souls of the dead
At dewy prime - Bring back the souls
At dewy prime
Bring back the souls of the dead
At dewy prime - Bring back the souls

Bring me back in time to their homeland
Bring back their souls together with me
Bring back their souls to their homeland
Bring me back in time together forevermore...

The vision was a test of deprived physical strength
Dipped in the ocean to be born again
My soul was naked without a surface
Then fingers folded around me and gave me a shell
This ship on its travel carried meaningful thoughts
Travelled over me and left their minds
Then a shadow unbound me and stretched me with skin
And adorned my soul with the memories of them...

(Jeg er ikke meget for at indrømme det, men jeg havde lidt svært ved at se det fantastiske i norsk/danske Communic´s 2. fuldlængde "Waves of visual decay", da den udkom i 2006....Jeg syntes, at det var en noget skuffende opfølger til debut-braget "Conspiracy in mind", men som tiden er gået er jeg heldigvis blevet klogere :-) "Waves...." holder 100 %, hvis bare man giver sig selv lov til at lytte koncentreret til de 7 lange labyrintiske, gennemarbejdede, intelligente tracks. Det er power/progressive metal så englene synger, og især closeren "At dewy prime" har jeg lært at se/høre som et af Communic´s allerbedste tracks til dato.

I disse måneder er Oddleif Stensland & Co. pladeaktuelle med bandets 4. fuldlængde "The bottom deep", og er blevet et etableret band på den internationale metal-scene og i HEAVY-SKOV´s univers....:-)).
