Caskets is the second single from the upcoming 'Somewhere In Between EP' from Cymatica. Out early 2021.
Another masterful piece of songwriting and understated production. The incessant arpeggiated bass and muted drums supports Terena's delicate vocals like a casket that works as a recipient, but also as a restraining mechanism.
'Caskets' possesses light and dark elements to it. The esoteric lyrics are a reflection on life and loss that can be dark and abysmal and at the same time a call to add 'colour' or 'lightness' to the inevitable.
Cymatica's unique brand of nostalgia and their existentialist look on life are perfectly showcased in Caskets.
lyrics
Caskets
Comes to call
The grimness of it all
Oh why can’t there be some colour?
It’s all we know
But we don’t know enough
Cruel as that shine-shines
Shine-shines on us
They will always be in my way
Little caskets swinging
Always be in my way
Faster and faster
Faster and faster
Lead the way down a path that’s written
We play our parts then we start all again
It’s all we know
But we don’t know enough
Cruel as that light play-plays
Play-plays on our hearts
They will always be in my way
Little caskets swinging
Always be in my way
Faster and faster
Faster and faster
Bring some colour
Bring some colour little caskets
Cruel as the light play-plays
Little caskets
Cruel as the light play-plays
Little caskets
Cruel as the light play-plays
Little caskets
Little caskets swinging
They will always be in my way
Little caskets
Always be in my way
Faster and faster
Life moves faster and faster
They will always be in my way
Little caskets
Always be in my way
Caskets caskets

The album that introduced me to Yota, and I am so glad I found her! A superb mix of the playful and the sad; the uplifting and the melancholic. I am a grown man who have experienced plenty of sorrow in my life, but Images never fail to bring tears to my eyes along with that well-known little emotional twist to the heart; the kind that you get from deep feelings for someone or something. Synthwave perfected! complexcharacter
A love letter to the glory days of 80s prog rock and metal. A mystery cassette hidden within your dad's 1990s Buick.
The Midnight have found another window into the past. Gryff
Fraud!
I didn't receive any goods after I paid. Every attempt to contact the artist or Bandcamp failed. I don't recommend anyone to buy here. Sorry but not sorry. With this unprofessional behavior you have lost all support and respect from me. elephant-man
