meh-tal meta-l Such a fantastically unique heavy metal band that expertly fuses a few different styles to form its own special signature sound. In a crowded field of sound-alikes, the erkonauts deal a dose of their own head bangable driving metal punctuated by unrelenting angry but borderline clean vocals, slap bass, and super tight crunchy and melodious riffage. A Swiss punky version of Gojira do I dare write? Favorite track: Losing Is The First Step.

Poesy Rider Quelque part entre Gojira et Suicidal tendencies, et avec une basse digne d'Infectious groove ou Mordred, justement, ça groove, ça balance du lourd, bref, ça fait du bien ! Un grand bravo messieurs ! Favorite track: Losing Is The First Step.

Cyril Glaume "The Erkonauts III: la confirmation". Plus sombre et plus profond que ses deux prédécesseurs, "I Want It To End" a la basse qui frétille toujours autant, mais avec une élégance accrue.

They the people Flamboyant and supreme Keeping the saints clean And the poor out of democracy Talking small steps looking both ways In a resort talking about charity They mean good They feel safe They are strong They smell good but don’t really do much They are us We are they And we’ll all prevent The rise of the innocent Every time we crush the weaker They come back Every soul we chain for power Cannot die Raise a poor soul to live in misery And yet protect his place deep into slavery We don’t know And we sure can’t know How to behave In times of disaster Every time we crush the weaker They come back Every soul we chain for power Cannot die Man shall rise And soon will strive to go under Silence and contemplation In a world designed for me I will always give you everything If none of it is taken from me Man shall rise And soon will strive to go under

When I’m In a freak show You are always there to speak I insist you should be heard A lot less and feel sorry Given less attention Be aware that there is more More than struggling to be Noticed by anyone I’ve seen it I heard it all In everything you are You suck so bad The future ends with you I can’t stand it when you talk When you’re writing When it’s wrong there always you Client as an art form And complainer as a trend An elite customer That I can’t respect Given less attention Given way more time to think Time in isolation Is an opportunity We seek to hold on to someone And to have something to keep We crave our share in matters A place in the sun I’ve seen it I heard it all In everything you are You suck so bad The future ends with you I can’t stand it when you talk When you’re writing When it’s wrong there always you I see factions Ready to raid the streets Crowds in motion Reeking of desperation They want to eat more Or feel safer It’s not about you You just move out of the way I’ve seen it I heard it all In everything you are You suck so bad The future ends with you I can’t stand it when you talk When you’re writing When it’s wrong there always you

In time came a letter No words just five seeds In time came a letter No words just five seeds The everything changed Revenge is set in motion What has been done has a price We cannot erase The mistakes of our past Saints, sinners Now is the time to Repent for you actions What has been done has a price A final letter No words just five seeds Like father before me I’ll pay for his sins

We were made to follow Then lead to quit Then feel nothing Nothing more The course is changing Cause it could be over soon While I seek redemption Or words to speak Words to tell the others I hope to leave I want To try something new Something Far on the horizon And seek some truth Then feel nothing Nothing more My course is changing I’m leaving I can’t stand To be alright I need more And with more Fear strikes And all is taken from me Then I feel nothing Nothing more Light is changing I’m leaving
6.
Gone is your dignity And gone is your pride You can freely start over And look for a match It doesn’t leave much to our collective soul but an awkward smell And a terrible sense a fashion Losing is the first step To true emancipation We try too hard to be too much Like the worst of the nation We are small, unappealing underreaching and destroyed But we’re getting better at the art Of retaliation The past was better we were in control Their light shines brighter It’d be easy to end it all Get there Get there and look better Be there And care for each other Stay there Stay there and feel safer and away Losing is the first step To true emancipation We try too hard to be too much Like the worst of the nation We are small, unappealing underreaching and destroyed But we’re getting better at the art Of retaliation

The Sun 04:05
I have been searching for a while cause I have The greatest star And now it’s time for him to really shine Bright and towards you Be prepared Be rejoiced Bring on cash Get a sense of wonder I’m the greatest man alive Gather round For He is the sun Captured Raptured In a cage just for your eyes So make sure you Can afford to gaze Now he’s been with me for a while Today I see Many of you waiting Wanting him to be set free To the wild To shine for everyone And I cannot abide For I have expenses you see Be outraged Be a crowd Be around But he’s staying with me He is sun Captured Raptured In a cage just for your eyes So make sure you Can afford a gaze So one day Summer shall return To bring back Broad daylight Shining over Fields and oceans And no more Life shadows Free at last Now he’s been sitting here a while And you’re gone To save another More enslaved More alone Less sublime And more picture friendly Be aware Be supreme Be divine We feel we care for them But we all ignore their pain

Caravaggio 06:08
When the time comes I’ll be ready to go Hearing subtle noises feel the tide from the shore The fear is strong But has no meaning I’m living like a ghost It’s harder to feel Part of something bigger Is there comfort within We do not need each other With our shared complaints We do feel closer But stay the same I have always been And will always remain Too weak by myself And helpless among others With the water rising I hope we will be Chained to each other When it’s harder to breathe Things will Never change Stay sad and feel betrayed Like no one hears your prayers

about

This album is without a doubt my most personal work, and the most honest I’ve ever been with myself during the creative process. I Want It To End comes from hard times, heavy struggles and a lot of self-loathing. It was kind of a make or break situation. I put my last energy into it and came out feeling totally rejuvenated. A therapy of sorts. The people who worked and played on the record totally understood the situation and gave stellar performances and guidance. I Want It To End stands for a need for change.
