preciousken I talk a lot about the expectational song writing glory and passion of Portuguese band IAMTHESHADOW. I will always buy anything Pedro puts out on Cold Transmission unheard, because he has never let me down . What always astounds me is how different every new album sounds. This new single is such a contrast to "Pitchblack". It is expansive, hopeful, and dynamic with the soul and accessibility of Psychedelic Furs. A band that is always taking you on a fresh emotional journey. Favorite track: The Wide Starlight.

Remains 03:22
REMAINS CHEERS TO LIFE IN THIS COLD BED DRAINED FROM LIGHT SLOWLY BLOOD RUNS COLD LIKE ICE INSIDE EYES RUN DRY WOULD TEARS LIE? CHEERS TO LIFE REMAINS OF LIGHT IN THIS TOMB INSIDE HOLLOW LIFE HOLLOW REMAINS OF TIME BURIED LIES STRETCHED ARMS CHEERS TO LIFE, DEEP SILENCE, THE ABYSS, OF MY SCREAMS CHEERS TO YOU, MY VIOLENCE, THE SUM, OF MY NEEDS LIFE`S TOO FAST, TO TAKE COVER, DISCOVER, WHAT IS REAL CHEERS TO LIFE, MY VIOLENCE, THE SUM, OF MY NEEDS THE SUM OF MY NEEDS OF MY NEEDS OF MY NEEDS OF MY NEEDS

The Wide Starlight To realize What`s still missing Just draw a line Between the silence and the starlight Between the silence and the starlight The silence and the starlight Wide starlight Lost in the same Old questions To drown you In the wide starlight the fault line gives no rest silence has no shame Will you face it? Will you drown in? The wide starlight Looking for nothing Will you take it? Will you drown in? The wide starlight Looking for nothing
3.
Even The Air is a Ruin Trusted my eyes Ignored the signs Left me The will to fight Sunk in the same strange mood Where even the air is like a ruin. Those clouds seem to fall down Deep down Inside like a Ruin And I close my eyes I`m travelling light now Like a Ruin A stone so wide, deep inside like a Ruin from the depth would rise The meaning for this illusion I close my eyes To travel light Those clouds seem to fall down
4.
Remind Me 04:19
REMIND ME Painted, the night Untamed by design To remind me Time grows old dark as a storm To defy me Here comes the sight why am i so blind to see it ? Dead by design Why am i so blind to see it ? Remind me Lungs seems to burn Last penance to the soul To remind me Time grows old dark as a storm To defy me Remind me Here comes the sight why am i so blind to see it ? Dead by design Why am i so blind to see it ?
5.
Intimacy 04:13
Intimacy Force my eyes into the light The pure white blinds I cease to fight Awake to bleed another day Purge my will Cease my fate Cease my fate Push my love into the void No space to feel No time to heal awake to bleed another day Cease my fate Cease my fate I felt a kind of truth You warned me These things are not for you You warned me I lost my kind of truth You warned me
6.
Unfold 04:35 video
Unfold Write on The lines of my hand Unfold My twisted fate My twisted fate tell me if all was worth write on the lines of my hand Write on the lines, of my hand Write on the lines of my hand Unveil All The words I couldn`t say Show me the steps I couldn’t make Unfold My twisted fate Unveil

IAMTHEDARK I, I am the dark Always searching for a reason why why, I am alive Longing for a key to give me light I am the dark I am the dark Please leave my mind I am the dark I am the dark Leave my mind Time is passing by Running through the rain and gloomy sky Try to say goodbye to all demons who follow me every night I am the dark I am the dark Please leave my mind I am the dark I am the dark Leave my mind Wicked feelings in my mind Under the moonlight, all night Screaming creature shade my eyes I shout and fight Haunted feelings changed my life I cry all night I am the dark I am the dark Please leave my mind I am the dark I am the dark Leave my mind

Stand Still 03:33
Stand Still Exquisite lines mold the time we have left Standing real, fake to feel All the loss has its role on the play Standing real Would time stand still? Would time stand still? Seems like a tale A guide to loss Seems like a waste Would time stand still? Soon the real takes the place in your mouth Standing Real, fake to feel Would time stand still? Would time stand still? Seems like a tale A guide to loss Seems like a waste Seems like a tale A guide to loss Seems like a waste
9.
Catching Fire You felt the fire inside yourself With no blame and how desire turned to rage With no blame No blame No blame No blame No blame you felt a precious kind of hope There`s no blame no blame No blame No blame You felt life away, from you Did you felt life away, from you You felt life away from…. you
10.
The Killing 03:48
The Killing Realized Can`t stop the movement of my days unwise living on, the border of my fate I´m so deep inside your dreams of hate So Kill me once again Your quest for blood will make you fail So use me once again Realized Can`t stop the turmoil in my brain Unwise To live on the border of my fate I`ll take the blame So use me once again I´ll take the blame So kill me once again
11.
Broken 03:49
Broken Take my breath and fill me with your broken insights, Broken insights Rest my arms in your web of fears Your broken insights Rotten inside Feels like a way to find A design for your life A thorn in mine Feels like a way to find A design for your life A thorn in mine Advise me with your certainties Your broken insights, broken inside Take your tears and drown your fears So rotten inside, broken inside Feels like a way to find A design for your life A thorn in mine Feels like a way to find A design for your life A thorn in mine like a thorn in my way
12.
If All Is Loss I`ve seen the clouds Breaking on my chest And the rain drowning All what`s left I`ve seen the steps Before the fall I`ve seen the light So dim and small Don’t wake me again If all is loss Embrace all the steps Before the fall I drowned so many times In my own fears I closed so many doors That I disappeared disappeared before the fall Don’t wake me again If all is loss
