about

'Blackened Sky' is the 2nd single from the album 'Hellsolation'. Mixed and mastered by Gábor Vári at Miracle Sound Studio. Artwork by Sonny Szalay.

Blackened Sky is a story about a person who climbs up on a mountain with all his effort in order to find the meaning of his life. On his way, he fights against physical obstacles put against him by nature like unbearable cold and extreme heights that he tries to overcome, while he also struggles with his mind. He goes through devouring thoughts in his head every second of every minute as in his mind he tries to defeat social expectations and the pressure on his shoulders created by society (or himself?). When he reaches the top, he finds absolute solitude and strength. There is only him and the endless sky there.

The song is the second single from Nest of Plagues’ third concept album ‘Hellsolation’ being released this September. The album deals with social problems and creates a metaphor for the struggles that we all go through every day. In the video of Blackened Sky, the band visualizes how vulnerable and helpless a person can be while life hurdles problems at them - they just stand silently and bear the pain while they’re constantly hit in the face by ‘bombs’. In spite of the serious lyrical message, they don’t break away from their eclecticism - the video got a trash horror image and doesn’t neglect humour either.

lyrics

When the light becomes our home
We descend all alone

Hike to the highest hope
The Mountain side gives you no help
You breathe your last on the rope
If you find no strength in yourself

I hate this world’s tension
Around my head it chokes my throat
I learned by isolation
In the end we all die alone

When the clouds show me the way
I’ll reach the sky no matter the pain
Burn the temple burn it down
We’re all alone when we hit the ground

The lesson comes with time
Pray for guidance they can’t hear you
Or if they can they only hide
Till they bring our lifespan to our doom

In desolated lands
Or in a barren empty space
There’s nowhere to find a hand
Screaming out loud to everyone’s face
FUCK YOU!
FUCK YOU!

When the clouds show me the way
I’ll reach the sky no matter the pain
Burn the temple burn it down
We’re all alone when we hit the ground

When the clouds show me the way
I’ll reach the sky no matter the pain
Burn the temple burn it down
In the mass alone we drown

Heart of a hill
Dark and old
I found power through the mold

Heart of a hill
Black and tall
I’ve built walls now I’ll destroy it all

Heart of a hill
Heart of a hill
