about

Picking up where they left off on 2009's 'life failures made music', the Italian three-piece headed by Claudio Alcara (also guitarist of famous black metal band Frostmoon Eclipse) makes their Hypnotic Dirge Records debut with the new album 'sound graveyard bound' Mixing various influences including Tom Waits, and Johnny Cash, Stroszek is certainly not a typical band you'd expect to hear from someone coming from a black metal background. Instead, Stroszek is often described by its frontman as "old music for old people" but could also be described as melancholic acoustic rock with influences from american folk music and (real) country music. However, interlaced among the sombre mood and melancholy, there are also uplifting guitar solos, intricate and powerful guitar work, and a truly relaxing atmosphere.
Combining a bleak depression with absolutely beautiful melodies to drift away to, Stroszek is a project to enjoy during moments of introspection and quiet evenings. The album also includes a cover of Mike Johnson's track 'If the world hadn't gone insane' as well as the beautiful female vocals of 'Nat' on the track 'Spirits Dwell.' Absolutely recommended!!

lyrics

no one but black dogs by my side
I ve lost my hope down to another world
deeper and deeper
try to kill me once again

ghost train ride to the dark side of this town
everytime it rains, I'm never coming home
deeper and deeper

try to kill me once again
too late to remember my name
hold your tongue
negative, dumb, something to learn

alone by the hillside
I am beside myself
I am besde someone else
alone by the hillside, negative, dumb

crush upon you exsistence
hide behind your emptiness
slip inside my empty grave
slip inside my empty grave
