Origina… Read Full Bio ↴Angels Of Liberty were a UK based new old skool Goth band.
Original formation was:
Voe Saint-Clare on Vocals & Synths
Scarlet Powers on Vocals & Synths
Echo Von Hammer on Machine Drums.
Influences include Nosferatu, Bauhaus, and The Sisters of Mercy
Formed in 2011 the band spent years on painstaking research. The task was undertaken by getting monstrously drunk out on the UK scene following some of the best Goth Rock bands during the nineties. After years of snakebite fuelled antics, worn out winklepickers and working as glorified skiv-vies in recording studios they set about the task of creating something themselves. So more than a little fashionably late, showing signs erotic crystallization inertia and with moth eaten frock coats.
Debut Album 'Pinnacle Of The Draco' released November 2012 packing new, demo and previously unavailable material. Debut appearance at WGW 2012 was cancelled due to Voe having a biking accident around the time of the Albums realease.
The Glorious Shining Initiation Of The Head
Angels of Liberty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tick time back round
Jewelled scenes
Like Sally's dreams
Concrescence inbound
The head, the dream-filled palace again
The head, the dream-filled palace again
Malady, she ran from me
Swims high on the load
Symmetry of chemistry
Astonished word code
D's the catcher in the rye
MK, child who never dies
Tease the bird flying high
Above the fields of ergot rye
The head, the dream-filled palace again
The head, the dream-filled palace again
Fly
Across the fields of rye
And over folds in time
And further within all mind
The head, the dream-filled palace again
The head, the dream-filled palace again
The lyrics to Angels of Liberty's song The Glorious Shining Initiation Of The Head are quite esoteric, and may have different interpretations depending on the listener's perspective. However, some common themes that may be derived from the lyrics are transcendance, rebirth, and the exploration of the unconscious mind.
The first stanza, which starts with "Shiva led, ego dead," refers to the Hindu deity Shiva, who is associated with destruction and creation. The line "ego dead" may signify the death of the self or the ego, in order to achieve a higher state of being. The following lines "Tick time back round/Jewelled scenes/Like Sally's dreams/Concrescence inbound" may describe a moment of revelation, where time seems to rewind and the singer is transported to a dream-like state of heightened awareness.
The second stanza contains several references to mystic and occult themes. The line "Malady, she ran from me" may refer to a sickness, either physical or spiritual, that the singer is trying to escape from. The line "Symmetry of chemistry/Astonished word code" may hint at the idea of the universe being a grand cosmic language, with everything in perfect balance and harmony. The following lines "D's the catcher in the rye/MK, child who never dies/Tease the bird flying high/Above the fields of ergot rye" may be allusions to various literary and cultural symbols, such as the character of Holden Caulfield in J.D. Salinger's novel "The Catcher in the Rye" and the CIA mind control program Project MKULTRA, which allegedly experimented with LSD and other hallucinogens. The final stanza "Fly/Across the fields of rye/And over folds in time/And further within all mind" may be an invitation to transcendence and exploration, as the singer urges the listener to venture beyond the confines of the self and explore the depths of the mind.
