1) At The Lake's music combines elements of folk, celtic and classical music with heavy metal sound. The extentive use of the violins played by Milena (former and composer) give the music its unique character. The band re-recorded their demo together with two new songs. The classically trained singer Gosia together with the keyboard player Ania (ex-Sacriversum) gave the music a new grand and symphonic sound. During the next one and a half year At The Lake played in various cities in Poland, visiting clubs, festivals and sharing the stage with many polish and foreign bands, including, among others, Sabaton, Tyr, Closterkeller. In september 2007 due to changes in her professional career Gosia decided to leave the band and At The Lake started to search for a new singer. A month later Marta joined the band. She stayed with the group for almost a year, but the band decided to part ways with her. In February 2009 Natalia Sikora, actress and singer, winner of various national and international singing competitions, joined At The Lake. Her acting talents and deep, emotional rock voice brought a new vibe to the band's sound. In spring At The Lake recorded a three song demo CD titled "Live Again".

At the Lake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tripping up the fire escape
To escape the fire we made
I would never hide what you’re seeking
Hold the door I’m trying to speak
Can you feel it?
Oh, my spirit?
I’m still wanting to want you
Oh and if you
You go I’ll find you
(Don’t go)
Under pressure, Impressive I can tell
You’ve been pressing buttons too well
I’ll swim in black lakes and I’ll ask you
Could you swim in tanks if you have to?
I’m so certain
Please don’t be nervous
I’m still wanting to want you
And if I can’t, can’t have you I have to
Oh and if you
You go I’ll find you
(Don’t go)
The lyrics to At the Lake's song "Voices" seem to be about a relationship that is falling apart, but the desire to hold onto it is still present. The opening lines, "Tripping up the fire escape, to escape the fire we made," suggest that the couple created the issues they are now facing, and the singer is trying to escape the consequences of that. The line "I would never hide what you're seeking" could be interpreted as the singer being honest and open about their feelings, even if it's not what the other person wants to hear.
The chorus, "I'm still wanting to want you, and if I can't, can't have you I have to, oh and if you go I'll find you" shows that the singer is holding onto the hope that the relationship can be salvaged. They still want to want the other person, but if that's not possible, they feel they have no choice but to try to find them again in some way. The tone is somewhat desperate, which is emphasized by the repetition of "don't go."
The second half of the song seems to focus more on the idea of pressure and the ability to handle it. The line "I'll swim in black lakes and I'll ask you, could you swim in tanks if you have to?" suggests a willingness to go to extremes and face difficulties head-on, but questioning if the other person can do the same.
Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle to hold onto a relationship that is slipping away, and the fear of losing the other person.
