The One in Grief

This song is relatively new, it was composed during recordings to replace a song called "Water Marked" which contained nice riffs but we were not able to make it work as a whole. At that time there was also a doubt whether we dare to use "Mankind" so we were forced to make a new song. This happened so that I wrote a song but left there enough room for Vottonen to use this amazing Spanish gypsy scale. Song turned out to be a great combination of doom, 80´s heavy, death metal and traditional gypsy music -it is now one of my personal favorites. I feel that the lyrics are most likely weakest on the album (Otto disagrees heavily) but vocal lines kick ass anyway. Sometimes it is possible to sing any kind of crap and still make it sound good if only the vocal melodies and the performance work, hah! - Vekku
