Today, we present to you a fantastic new single debut from Australia. A one-person project, Her Eyes Haunt Me, that plays post-black metal with a very. however. blackgaze flavour, and brings the song As Your Eyes Close Over.
The track is not particularly long, but it really provides a lot of thrills. It’s very atmospheric, there’s a lot of modulation on the guitar, the riffs are very melodic and memorable, and on top of that, the rhythm section also holds the level. So many dry facts, while, as it happens in this kind of music, you can feel a strong charge of emotions, especially since the lyrics all the way mourn a great longing… For someone? Or maybe for something? The author says that the music is about mental health, so this could be a clue.
So hopefully, we’ll hear more extensive material from this project soon. While it’s hard to give an opinion based on the one and only track of Her Eyes Haunt Me, in the case of this single, we’re dealing with a really beautifully sad and good song. May there be more, and may it be with a strong message!
“Two hearts
Drift apart
When the bond has broke
Once the warmth has left
Hold me close
Your embracing touch
Nulls all pain
As my eyes close over
This is a cry for help
But there’s nobody to hear me
I’m screaming out for help
But there’s nobody around
This is a cry for help
There’s nobody to hear me
I’m going to lose my mind
I’m spiraling down
Twirling, dancing like flames around this once beautiful presence
A recollection of memories far gone
Close enough to feel the grief but too far gone to enjoy the warmth
instead I feel myself sharing them with my thoughts
Spinning beneath my skull until I can’t seem to stand only to open a bottle and exacerbate the pain
But no matter how much I drink and force myself to forget
It won’t bring you back
I can not take this shit
It’s slowly bubbling over
Soon enough I’m sure to lose my composure
As the cold washes over torn skin
I will hear your distant breath
Waiting on it’s return”
