[Ole Alexander Myrholt 2008]
We came down from a heavenly high
avoiding the fall with a delinquent late night blight
kissing the darkness while closing our eyes
closing the curtains to extend the rhythm of night
I see the demons gleam
vile opponents beyond redeeming
we all hail the same new dawn
and we'll keep reaping the fruits before they're sown
I remember the rose you held in your hand
as virtue was raped by a vile intent
we shared the late hours of a sweet lone descent
your cunt spread wide to greet the demand
Do you remember the rose I held in my hand?
I used to utilize these tricks to deceive
as I kept pointing to the skies
sneaking it up my sleeve
leaving me with a counterfeit high
I caress you by the waterfall
you lay naked beneath the bright blue sky
and I cede to the light summer breeze
seeking shelter between your thighs
I might not be the one that you were looking for
and I might not be the man you should love
we're tripping now baby...
and I'm coming down fast, hitting an all time low
I'm coming down baby, coming down
I'm coming down baby, down, down
I'm coming down baby, coming down
I'm coming down baby, down, down
I'm coming down, coming down baby
I'm coming down, coming down
I'm coming down, coming down baby
I'm coming down, coming down with you
I analyse the current condition of my demeanour
it's bewildered by the ultimate temptation
I am reliving the pages of this magnificent composition
it's held in weird esteem and I am quite alarmed by all these dreams
I will suppress the detest and ignore the faith
curb the repulsion and the depression and the dread and the hate
I will get back up on the stage because I love you all
I'll keep pouring my heart out cause this is fucking rock n roll...
Enslavement of Beauty is a Norwegian symphonic black metal band formed in January 1995 by Ole Alexander Myrholt (vocals and lyrics) and Tony Eugene Tunheim (guitars and composing). Over the following years, the band composed and recorded material, developing their unique expression. In the summer of 1998, Enslavement of Beauty recorded the demo CD "Devilry and Temptation", which led to a deal with Head Not Found/Voices of Wonder. This resulted in the 1999 release "Traces O' Red", which received very positive response. In November 2000, the band returned to the studio to record their second album, "Megalomania", joined by drummer Asgeir Mickelson (Borknagar/Spiral Architect) and bassist Hans-Aage Holmen. In 2007, the third album, "Mere Contemplations", was successfully released with the I.N.R.I. Unlimited label. Musically, the band still sounds very melodic and deeply inspired by classical music but with a sharper metal edge and a truly hell-bent rock 'n' roll attitude. Lyrically Enslavement of Beauty takes a more direct approach but is still highly influenced by the poetic beauty of William Shakespeare and Marquis De Sade's works.
In the realm of rock 'n' roll, there are few names as iconic as Queen, and within the Queen pantheon, Brian May stands out not only as a legendary guitarist but also as an astrophysicist with a profound connection to NASA.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
It has been talked about for almost 3 years, rumored and it is hoped that sooner or later they will arrive at a collaboration, and now we are satisfied: the Catalan singer Rosalia and the American musician Oneohtrix finally announce the publication of a piece together!
