Clairvoyance 04:48
Clairvoyance All demons shall gather and those will dominate A clear prediction of a fallen state The witches foresee - blinded by a muted spell Our lies shall possess every single cell The world has fallen into pieces The world shall fall into darkness An absence of human empathy The signs dimmed by an eerie veil Subsconscious bleeding seems to mutilate our lives The world turned black by darkened lies All scars tear open - the wounds shall bleed Blessed are we to be the devils fleet The world has fallen into pieces The world shall fall into darkness Hear me now! See the symbols! Nature speaks - but we have lost our ears Nature speaks - but we ignore the focus Ghosts entwine our decadent needs We hide behind the vision - we cannot bleed The precious - delicious - a fucking pure whore The ruins of passion shall close the core Our lives have fallen into pieces Our lives shall fall into darkness Nature speaks - but we have lost our ears Nature speaks - but we ignore the focus

Stillborn 04:24
Stillborn Angels whisper, but demons scream "Do It!!" Molested, raped, humilated Offenders justifies, victims fate Broken, devastated, disturbed The will to kill felt absorbed Pregnant, doubts, suffering A massive overload of feelings Violent thoughts of revenge A newborn scum will be spawned An angel was dancing while you slept An angel was dancing into an aura of light Blame it on God! He must be guilty Blame it on Devils! The power of longings Blame it on God! He should have safed you Blame it on Devils! Vengeance is born Stripped, tortured, butchered This life is just a piece of shit The wretched path becomes me The moral ends by longings An angel was dancing while you slept An angel was dancing into an aura of light

Parasomnia Escape from another illusion Stranded in apathy Visions run through our veins We walk through shadows that dominates our hearts I feel the absence, I feel the bleakness An eerie presence guides me like a puppet I did`nt realise that i`m guilty and what it makes with all the sins i have done Lifeless and fragile we float through spheres The candles stopped their flames Ashes fall like rain Sleepwalking, guided by inner demons
4.
The Lake Of Visions I searched for darkness but darkness found me A vicious circle The mirrors froze to ice A spell was cast and the sky turned red The angels wept while demons arose Our desolation - our desecration In need for vengeance, my scars shall bleed again The veins cut open Blood flows to the ground Life has no meaning to this point A scent of light embraces the feelings I am caged within emptiness but free from lies Our desolation - our desecration In need for vengeance, my scars shall bleed again TO THE LAKE OF VISIONS Our fate is sealed with blood Our damnation is sealed with fire The stars fall from heaven like leaves from withered trees The seed of mankind shall bleed the lake of tears
5.
Sleep Paralysis The body can`t move but the mind is awake It feels like paralysed in coma Fear overwhelms, can`t breathe Demons lurk from the shadows Beyond darkness, there hides a creature Stronger than nature, stronger than believes Our hearts are wounded, our sins glow deeper Our fragments, becoming infested Insidious forecast, bound to the devils To pull the trigger, would be easier to ease the pain I feel guilty, but am i guilty? The scenery depends on the viewer The creature becomes me Now, i know i was a part of it Silent ghosts apear How should i ever see the light of a new day Condemned to be witness Condemned to be dead Condemned to feel alive Blessed to be damned - eternal

Manacle Of Dogma I bleed for fragments that collide - not for centuries. ...when angels deserve to fall - where hides the beauty? Cross the azure of night Imagine the blood over fractured angels Impale the invisible scars Curse the light that made you blind Kill me within seven wounds Demand the welkin past I bleed for fragments that collide - not for centuries. ...when angels deserve to fall - where hides the beauty? The time for candles has been set - only entwined memories Tears will last longer than shadows of past Dissolve the poison over my tongue For I can speak more lies beside your cross Your spiritual carcass bleeds incarnate With vengance passion - I smother your flesh
7.
The Demon Whispers Scars...shall remind eternal A symbol of a divided inner pain The burden of depravity, devours me Feeling guilty and betrayed at once Father, the demon whispers The devils crossed the border Too late to feel alive, blades own my fate Blood owns my fate I imagine to break my life There is no light at the precious end I feel paralised - by distance My soul almost has been taken I asked for vengeance I asked for options I asked for justice I asked for real life
8.
Subconscious Scars ...and the darkness calls the rain I imagine the death to embrace me ...and the forrest takes the light Emptiness shall deform me How could i ever enjoy the glare of life when shades of past possesses me ...and the moon closes his visions The sunlight will gallow me Hear me now, here i stay, this is the last time to say sorry I spit on the unknown I spit on believes I spit on your weak lies My pain obsesses me ...and suspicious eyes observes the lambs The innocence will still be caged by fear ...and the glare would be dimmed by clouds A new mask shall be created
9.
A Moral Of Strain I saw you bleeding You`ve touched the wrong game A serpent vibe Self-fulfilling prophecy In search for power in search for revenge Hook in mouth Self-fulfilling prophecy In hells damnation Life pukes on us Take it easy Self-fulfilling prophecy Blessed be apostasy Deny the litany God; just in case Self-fulfilling prophecy A FUCKING MORAL OF STRAIN

about

It took thirteen years, but now it's finally here – the new album of IN SLUMBER!

In their usual old manner, the Upper Austrian band, fronted by Wolfgang Rothbauer (PURGATORY, THIRDMOON), continue with their direct melodic death metal style on their fourth full-length "While We Sleep".
If you know IN SLUMBER, you what to expect: absolutely authentic Death Metal, peppered with ingenious melodies and an aggression that doesn't seem artificial in any way. The band offers everything from blast beats to slowly driving and pushing songs. They don't follow any trends and skillfully show that you don't really need them for a good album. No, everything here is well thought out, every single keyboard entry, every harmony, every rhythm and mood change… everything flows together wonderfully and unites with an interesting lyrical concept. If you like DARK TRANQUILITY, old IN FLAMES and EUCHARIST you can't ignore IN SLUMBER!


"While We Sleep" was recorded, mixed and mastered at DDP Studio Braunau by Lukas Haidinger. The cover was painted by Gerald Moira in 1893 and is entitled "The Silent Voice".
