Memento Mori - A collection of perspectives on death, dying and beyond

10 posts in this topic

This is about one of the band members that died. You might like this type if music, you might dislike it, but I think this is pretty special.

 


In the depths of winter,
I finally learned that within me 
there lay an invincible summer.

@Max_V It was pretty interesting, I liked how they had the all seeing eye looking over everything.  I had to kind of shift perspective a little to enjoy this type of music, but once it kind of settled into a character and life of it's own I appreciated it more.  How did the kid die?  Sounds like suicide.

@Annetta He died of cancer

He wrote this song while knowing his time was going to be over soon. 

Memento mori (being mindful of death). Writing about his experience of moving towards death and being mindful of it while he is in the process of dying.

@phoenix666 Ye you have to keep your mind open since screaming vocals often turn people of immediately. It's quite intense and beautiful since you can feel so much emotion put into it.

@Max_V I've always loved it because of all the emotion in screaming. it cracks something open, makes vulnerable. thinking about death has a similar effect. makes me conscious of my fragility. that is empowering in a very beautiful, paradoxical way <3


whatever arises, love that
