about

Blow the Leaves Is a deep dive into Alex's imaginative journey inside a river that runs inside a big dark maze while drowning in a paralyzing sense of being defeated. His demons are hovering above him at all times up until the point he just ignores them completely.
As the journey evolves, Ales’s thoughts, conclusions get more and more complex and his pain and suffering intensifies even more up until he can not handle it any more and considers suicide but rather quickly regrets his thoughts and wishes to return to his path in life.

The music's main theme starts at the very beginning as a dark polyrhythmic verse that transforms its energy building up and dropping down much like waves. The track slowly intensifies and reaches a heavy hardcore chorus builds up into an emotional catatonia that gradually decreases back into the main theme. The middle section is in ⅞ time signature and while it keeps a gentle feel it still maintains that uncomfortable feeling. The track shows various peaks, twists and turns and eventually arrives at the main theme again but at its most aggressive and hurting form.

lyrics

blow the leaves

blow the leaves breeze blow,
and the trees are crying
blow the leaves breeze blow,
cry...
blow the sails breeze blow,
and the waves are groaning
blow the sails breeze blow,
and your mouth gets…
dry….
Left, hollowed
smell the stench from miles
shut your windows, tilt the curtains,
And hide
Taught to keep my head up
But I can no longer stand your sight
Imprisoned in these smeared clouds
a periodic malfunction
Or a message from above
Either way you are pushed from the hive
Pulled out and put down
Cracked mouth, spread wide
Grab my soul, stretched on walls,
that learned to forget what eventually goes away
Their scorn like needles, piercing through my head
wandering from sign to sign
now my hunger starts deciding
Fear is now a motive in my dreams
As the seasons change
Down the stream row
And your thoughts are drowning
Down the stream row
and your mind gets..
Dry..
Row the stream row
And your thoughts are drowning
Row the streams row
Feed off my skin right to the bone
Inch by inch severs my mind and soul
A darkened maze couldn’t confuse me more
Pasting thoughts to the stars as I go
All My kindness drains, my faith torn
Hate became a light, a truth
A potion for my agony.
Stretching wings,
Wiping shadows off your dead slit eyes,
hear it, read what's on the wall, big fish eat small fish,
nature is consumed by men.
a periodic malfunction
Or a message from above
Either way you are pushed from the hive
Pulled out and put down
Cracked mouth, spread wide
Startling from side to side
On my abdomen descending
Fear like Venom seeps in
Leaves are rattling
as the seasons change X2
Gaviangarisheme chemi,
Chemi da chemo vabrune
Chemi pechebi shen lotzvaze
blow the leaves breeze blow X3
and your mouth gets
