alternative power metal gothic death
Artist picture
Melodic, extreme, progressive, gothic metal with some power, black, death influence!
Back in 2001, before all the symphonic metal bands like Nightwish came out, Andy, Sello, Lou and Chiara started the project of an alternative metal band with the goal to reach a new kind of alternative music! All started with the idea of a sweet female voice set against a growling/screaming voice. Music, in our mind, should be a compromise of extreme and classic metal, with strong melodies and some progressive influence. That's how the Dark Enchantment project was born!

Story behind the song
A log distance cooperation between Andy And Chiara: she write some poetry, he finds some music good for it, she studies a lyric on it and the song is ready!!
Lyrics
I'm still falling for it... It seems impossible to me, But it's always the same... And I'm tired of waving my illusions on your shores, 'Cause i haven't more, And I'm loosing the strenght to enlight my dreams. (Chorus) I feel my illusions crushing around, like crystals in the water: The light groping without breath, Falling among cutting screams. No Wings left, this land is desolated. Mirror, mirror... There is a soundtrack now playing around in my heart, a cover of numbness leaving everything out, A whole line of sounds running along, pure and simple like the blood from a wound. (Chorus) I feel my illusions crushing around, like crystals in the water: The light groping without breath, Falling among cutting screams. No Wings left, this land is desolated. Mirror, mirror... Mirror, mirror... Mirror, mirror... (Bridge?) I would know the secret of your unceasing watching, translate the Beauty I see in the Evil it is. Guitar Solo They say the beauty is in the eyes, And if I can't see, am I doomed for all my life? Can I borrow your eyes to face reality? Can I borrow your heart so I can stop shaking? (Chorus) I feel my illusions crushing around, like crystals in the water: The light groping without breath, Falling among cutting screams. No Wings left, this land is desolated. Mirror, mirror... Mirror, mirror... Mirror, mirror... Mirror, mirror... I see your evil! Mirror, mirror... Death don't lie! Mirror, mirror... Free my beauty! Mirror, mirror... Death don't die!

This one is one of my favorites, the chorus is superb, you guys keep getting better and better, Chiara's voice is hypnotizing, beautiful, and the guitars are as usual, amazing. I still think the mixing can be improved, but the songs are excellent. another 10!!
