Ioannis Valiakos The world looks to Greece these days for our stoner heavy rock scene, but Greece has always been a traditional metal powerhouse. If you are unaware of this fact, the new album of Silent Wedding is an excellent place to start from. If you ever had posters of Nevermore and Savatage on your walls, you will love this album. Reminded me also of my fellow patriots Silent Winter (Volos, Greece). Great production, good songs, great voice for the genre. Check it out today. Favorite track: Reveal the Rain.
Reek Of STOOM

Reek Of STOOM Evocative and emotive Death/Doom that is powerful, yet melodic. Wonderful production and a fantastic voice to boot!

George SephirGR Melodic, emotional, great vocals and arrangements. A must for every fan of Fates Warning/Savatage out there. Favorite track: Ethereal Walls.

1.
You’re trapped in your own state of blindness The search for the ultimate truth The rest of your breathing is silence Silence, Vainness, Blindness Remember…
2.
I always lived inside my head A living body, spirit dead Relentless lies my empty heart I will endure this inner dark Do the hours have a meaning my friend? When the silence is shouting your name? Do the nights glimmer brighter again? And your gloom seems to shine in the end? I will forgive all those who try I’ll raise my hand up to the sky A beam of light, a lone desire A ray of hope that sparks my fire
3.
Night and day we bend the knee In endless fights, we’re never free Earth and fire, wind and rain We pay the price until we feel no pain The city’s fire burning Stronger than before And distant lights remind you That which you adore We hold the keys of wisdom In our trembling hands We’re doomed to live our future In these barren lands In God we trust Turn ourselves to dust The sea of fate Once we cross the gate Night and day we’re locked inside A thirst for more our blinded guide Look away, the job is done We can’t break free this is the master plan
4.
Despiteful memories Visions that run through the maze of my mind With no way out All fears will come All fears will go Death is a dream And time will flow The future is gone The past is unknown Burning desires Will turn you to stone For all that we are For what we will be We are caught in the web Of our own destiny Repulsive faces Leaving their traces deep down in my heart That none will find This is the hour This is the day The rest is silence
5.
The night engulfs the day Our ego fades away We never choose the role We are meant to play The truth is always clear Despite the pain and fear The final act is drawing near How many nights I waited Until the sun revealed the rain How many nights I waited Until the moon relieved the pain How many nights I wanted To hold you in my arms again I scream your name I’m hanging by a thread The echo fills my head Your soothing voice is now dispread
6.
I yearn to see the future I need to feel the past For now I live in silence This moment is the last The day is turning darker The air is chilling cold I lived a life of duty But now I’m getting old In any god’s mysterious eyes We are only sinners in disguise And if you feed yourself with lies Even your soul slowly dies My time is running short now I’m heading to despair I need to find a doorway To breathe the open air In any god’s mysterious eyes It’s when you feed yourself with lies It’s when your soul slowly dies
7.
Through all these people and years I have passed I’m leaving behind my ashes and dust Give me your eyes and I will see for you Give me your hands and I will drink from you From all these people and years I have taken No favours I’ll give, my hatred awaken I’m closing my eyes and they’re all the same My dreams and my palace I’m living in shame My soul is my shield I’m giving you tears but I’m stealing the sun My soul is my shield I’m giving you fears while the night has begun My soul is my shield I’m giving you warmth but I’m stealing the light My soul is my shield I’m taking the chance but I give up the fight From all these people I don’t want a favour The destiny’s calling, my chance is my labour All that I’ve done and all I’ve desired My Muses will write when my mind is so tired They will write for the dreams that will fade in the night My towers of cardboard I’ll give up the fight Sooner or later I know what to do Give me your hand I’m coming straight to you.
8.
There is a time when the day is darker This is the time of the brighter night Feelings of doubt cover up my senses But still I know what I’m doing is right I’ve lost my soul A path that will lead to nowhere All hope is gone And I’ve reached the point of no return I bear the truth but you know the answer I hold the key but you lock the door I tried so hard but I could not find me I gave myself till I have no more Over and over again I push myself to the end I reach the point The final darkness Over and over again I push myself to the end I reach the point Of no return
9.
The rain is gently falling My better days are stalling, now My hands against the wall Despite my dreams of plenty My psyche is almost empty, now I find myself in thrall And I know The words I need to say And I know The price I have to pay And I know The pain I had to try For I know The tears I’ll never cry This is the final token Out of a soul that’s broken, now The night is coming soon The clock is moving faster The end will be the answer, now I’m blinded by the moon And I know The words I need to say And I know The price I have to pay For I know The tears I had to cry And I know For I would never die And as we walk in meadows green And we have washed away our sin
10.
Break the hourglass Touch the grains Grasp them tight See what remains Beyond the truth of our Ethereal walls of sleep There’s nothing right we follow There’s nothing wrong we keep We can’t escape from what we are We only have our dreams so far I’m telling you our destiny is waiting We can’t escape from what we did We only have our souls to bleed I’m telling you our destiny is waiting Joy and mourning Mark our trail Always two Until we fail To hold the truth we bring Within our precious lies We wear the mask of laughter We hide our desperate cries Until we meet again We only have our souls
11.
I will forgive I’ll never forget There is no time For me to regret Fire and blood Death joins my birth I must discern The truth from the lie I will have faith Till the time that I’ll die Winter is near Death walks the earth Living life without a meaning Of an everlasting dreaming In a world of ice and fire Song of the dead Living life without the sorrow It’s a life with no tomorrow In a world of ice and fire Song of the dead I will emerge From turmoil and lust I will erase All the ghosts of my past Just hear me roar Death passes by I will go on A story revives This is a battle Where no one survives Raven in black Death from the sky We keep on falling Until we’ve fallen down…
