Singled Out: Promethee's Dark Souls
. Darks souls, if I am not mistaken, is the first song written from our upcoming new album. It has paved the way for a heavier sound for the band, something a bit more pissed off. Some of you might be disappointed to hear it has nothing to do with the video game; while a few of us in the band are pretty big gamers, that is not where we get our inspiration from. This song speaks of breaking free of what we have been told by those who seek to single us out as something dark, evil, unnatural, sick, and immoral. Some people may have heard these words or even worse, had them used against them. We are taught not to act a certain way, not to think a certain way and not to be a certain way when, deep in our gut, we know who we really are and it is not the person we are told to be. These lies can feed our depression and emphasize our self-destructive personalities to the point of being at the edge of losing it completely; wanting to watch the world end with you. The easiest way to keep someone in the dark is by making him believe that he belongs there and is unworthy of love, hope and well-being. Once we have seen the true colors of our oppressors and their own vile being, it is hard to regain a sense of hope. The "big picture" is just too much to digest as we realize the control they have over the way we perceive our own lives. This is just a little bit about what we call necessary illusions created by an agenda setting media, and a theme that will surely be very present, lyrically, in our second record. I truly hope that, within our musical scene, we can soon fully regain a sense of acceptance; somewhere one can feel free to be who he is. Where we can all be comfortable being the beautiful, f***ed up scumbags that we all are. A place negating the laws put in place by either the popular culture or a system of propaganda. Thank you all for reading, we hope have new material for you very soon. "I think it only makes sense to seek out and identify structures of authority, hierarchy, and domination in every aspect of life, and to challenge them; unless a justification for them can be given, they are illegitimate, and should be dismantled, to increase the scope of human freedom." ― Noam Chomsky Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself right here!
