Seven Spires - 'Portrait Of Us' (official music video)
She sheds a million tears on rainy bay windows
Your love like silent winters piled on evergreens
Your care, the cold stone in the fortress we called home
When autumn bleeds malted memories
You named me in my darkness
A prophecy unfolds
Now we’re cowards far apart
All you ever let me know
Love is angry
Love is cold
Love is absent
Never told
(Am I your carbon copy?
Am I your unborn son?)
Love is judgement
Love is wordless
Grudgingly accepts the worthless
(All that your lessons taught me
Life is to be won)
It was you who named me in my darkness
Raised me to perfection
Just remember pain and blame and fondness
Are stored in your reflection
I am a portrait of us
With lacquered claws, I beckon
Grand, sweeping gestures
And fanged expressions
For I am the villain in every story
All I ever wanted was to be more than
Cracked clean slates and tear-stained
Midnight confessions
Forgive me in all my
Failed perfections
Love is angry
Love is cold
Love is absent
Never told
(Am I your carbon copy?
Am I your unborn son?)
Love is judgement
Love is wordless
Grudgingly accepts the worthless
(All that your lessons taught me
Life is to be won)
It was you who named me in my darkness
Raised me to perfection
Just remember pain and blame and fondness
Are stored in your reflection
I am a portrait of you, me, and
Her eyes sparkle in illustrated firelight
While yours are wide in apprehension
Our colours faded in the gradient of time
What happened to those years?
Love is angry
Love is cold
Love is absent
Never told
(Am I your carbon copy?
Am I your unborn son?)
Love is judgement
Love is wordless
Grudgingly accepts the worthless
(All that your lessons taught me
Life is to be won)
It was you who named me in my darkness
Raised me to perfection
Just remember pain and blame and fondness
Are stored in your reflection
Father, forgive me if I’m your carbon copy
If I’m your unborn son
All that your lessons taught me
Life is to be won
I am a portrait of us

Οι Seven Spires μας έρχονται από την Μασαχουσέτη. Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από μία... ενδεκάδα έτη και χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως "theatrical metal" στο ύφος των Avantasia, Kamelot, Epica.
Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, ένα live album, ένα ep έφθασε και κάποια singles. Το νέο τους δισκογραφικό πόνημα φέρει τον τίτλο "A Fortress Called Home" και "βγήκε" μόλις σήμερα...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Seven Spires will release their fourth studio album, titled “A Fortress Called Home”, on June 21st, 2024, via Frontiers Music srl. The highly-anticipated follow-up to “Gods of Debauchery” (2021) takes their signature blend of symphonic, power and extreme metal to new heights, and drags the listener to the deepest abysses in the process.
“A Fortress Called Home” was produced, mixed, and mastered by guitarist Jack Kosto. Frontwoman Adrienne Cowan comments: “I visited the void twice while writing this album. I don’t know which begat the other. It’s ugly. I love it and I hate it, and I think it’s our best work yet.”
Seven Spires are an American symphonic metal band from Boston, MA. Since their inception in 2013 at Berklee College of Music, these best friends have forged their home in the darker corners of the melodic metal world with strikingly emotional filigree and relentless technical prowess.
Known as much for their melancholic concept albums as their penchant for pushing genre limits, they draw influence from across the spectrum of metal and beyond, reaching ravenously into jazz, late Romantic-era orchestral music, cinematic soundscapes, and more.»
