Upon Reflection
from Ethereality by Akord
lyrics
Open up the case in question
By keeping them near you won't realise,
And shutting them down to stay divided,
Is getting caught up to be beguiled,
Leaving to hide you'll realise it's all over nothing,
Now,
So proud,
With this life,
That you enshroud.
Less able to love,
With nothing to speak of,
Maltreated from a level above.
To make more sense of it all
You'd have to open up to where we fall,
feel nothing at all,
Keep life behind closed doors,
caging alike to store,
Open, allow to explore... even more.
Failing on those you should love,
Sheltering existence we knew,
Is falling socially screwed,
To fail overprotecting you,
You’ll have to lose.
To make more sense of it all
You'll have to open up to where we fall,
feel nothing at all,
Keep life behind closed doors,
caging alike to store, Open, allow to explore... even more
By keeping them near you won't realise,
And shutting them down to stay divided,
Is getting caught up to be beguiled,
Leaving to hide you'll realise it's all over nothing,
Now,
So proud,
With this life,
That you enshroud.
Less able to love,
With nothing to speak of,
Maltreated from a level above.
To make more sense of it all
You'd have to open up to where we fall,
feel nothing at all,
Keep life behind closed doors,
caging alike to store,
Open, allow to explore... even more.
Failing on those you should love,
Sheltering existence we knew,
Is falling socially screwed,
To fail overprotecting you,
You’ll have to lose.
To make more sense of it all
You'll have to open up to where we fall,
feel nothing at all,
Keep life behind closed doors,
caging alike to store, Open, allow to explore... even more

about
Akord Glasgow, UK
Imagine Tool and Karnivool locked together in the sweet embrace of a musical orgy; a passion filled session with some light
sweet jazz to set the mood. Incubus loiter in the room to tag in every so often and Biffy Clyro are there to serve the refreshments.
That's Akord.

What a creative and unique EP from David! I love the intricacy and level of detail in the soundscape so much. There's always something for my ear to catch each time I visit this release. This is one of his more underrated releases, in my opinion. Great job, David! :D

I like the fact that this guy is not in “omg I love djent so much I’ll only let *that* express in my songs” mode. With his friends he crafts thoughtful and diverse songs which can be either playful or touching.

i like the Rick Beato videos and he had shown the track electric sunrise in his video "How To Count Odd Meters". I was very impressed from this song and searched for the whole album and found it at bandcamp ;-)

The two epic tracks on the latest from BC group Lakeman are mind-melters, opening slow and pensive before erupting into near-doom metal.

Never heard of this band until this came on Liquid Metal...now I'm hooked and hope they come back to the states soon.
