1) A female-fronted melodic death metal band from La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina, originally formed in 2016 under the name UnFear.
2) Acroma (formerly known as No Release) is an alternative rock band formed in Salt Lake City, Utah. The band consists of Jeremy Stanley (vocalist), Brian Christensen (guitarist), Tom Collins (bassist), and Joshua Zirbel (drummer). No Release began developing a small following in Salt Lake City after releasing a three-song demo. In 2002, one of the band's tracks was heard by label Universal Records on a compilation album. Soon after, Univeral signed the fledgling band to a record deal. The newly named Acroma enlisted Tool producer Sylvia Massy to produce their first album. The album was influenced strongly by Massy's Tool, as well as Maynard James Keenan's side project, A Perfect Circle. They released the album Orbitals in May 2003. The album was recorded at RadioStar Studios, in Weed, California. "Sun Rises Down" and "Don't Think, Just Move" received moderate radio play on college radio stations around the country, but the band was never able to crossover to mainstream radio. The band has been on hiatus since the release of Orbitals and it remains unknown when Acroma will release another album.

Acroma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I lost my youth and now there's no returning
I cannot hear the wisdom words below me
And if I fall is it just the ending?
It seems that I am lost in orbit
Somehow I knew it all along
We grow become the brightest
We grow become the brightest
Lost in wisdom
We deteriorate it's one more day of dying
We deteriorate lost in orbitals
We deteriorate
Wait for truth until the end and then it's too late
One by one we reach the atmosphere and fall to earth
I cannot see you cannot hear you
Lost in orbit I can't stop moving
I cannot hear the wisdom words below me
I dream of falling hoping words will reach me
We grow become the brightest
Fight the orbits as they drive us
We grow become the brightest
Lost in wisdom
We deteriorate it's one more day of dying
We deteriorate lost in orbitals
We deteriorate
We wait for truth until the end and then it's too late
One by one we reach the atmosphere and fall
We fall
A never ending fall
We fall
We deteriorate it's one more day of dying
We deteriorate trade innocence for wisdom
We deteriorate it's one more day of dying
We deteriorate lost in orbitals
We've lost it all
The lyrics of "Orbitals" by Acroma speak of the passage of time and the loss of innocence and youth. The singer reflects on their inability to hear the wisdom of others and their sense of being lost in orbit, unable to stop moving forward. They dream of falling, hoping that the words of wisdom will reach them before they inevitably reach the end and fall to earth. The chorus repeats the idea of growing into the brightest, but also fighting the orbits that drive them and becoming lost in wisdom.
The song seems to be a commentary on the human experience of aging and the struggle to hold onto our sense of youth and innocence. The idea of being lost in orbit suggests a feeling of being disconnected from the world around us and unable to find our place. The repeated refrain of "We deteriorate" emphasizes the inevitability of aging and the loss that comes with it. The idea of waiting for truth until the end and then it being too late also speaks to the importance of living in the present and not taking our time for granted.

I cannot see the end just time before me
I am uncertain of what the future holds, I only know that time continues to move forward
I lost my youth and now there's no returning
I have aged and cannot revert back to the younger version of myself
I cannot hear the wisdom words below me
I am unable to comprehend or internalize the advice given to me
And if I fall is it just the ending?
I wonder if my failures will ultimately lead to my demise
It seems that I am lost in orbit
I feel trapped in a circular cycle, unable to break free
Somehow I knew it all along
I had a premonition of my predicament but ignored it until it was too late
We grow become the brightest
We evolve and become the best version of ourselves
Fight the orbits as they drive us
We resist the cyclical patterns that try to control us
Lost in wisdom
Despite our intellectual growth, we can still feel lost and unsure
We deteriorate it's one more day of dying
Each passing day brings us closer to our eventual demise
We deteriorate lost in orbitals
Our decline is perpetuated by our inability to escape destructive patterns
Wait for truth until the end and then it's too late
We procrastinate seeking the truth until it's too late to make a meaningful impact
One by one we reach the atmosphere and fall to earth
We succumb to gravity and the inevitable pull of earthly matters
I cannot see you cannot hear you
I am emotionally disconnected and unable to connect with others
Lost in orbit I can't stop moving
I feel stuck in a perpetual motion and can't seem to slow down
I dream of falling hoping words will reach me
I yearn for a meaningful connection and hope to receive helpful guidance
We deteriorate trade innocence for wisdom
As we mature, we lose our naivety in exchange for knowledge and experience
We've lost it all
Our inability to escape damaging patterns has led to our complete downfall and loss
