The group’s lineup suffered some changes in early 2015: Igor was replaced by Leon «Relentless» from Erase the Edge, and Phil Romeo (Countless Skies) from UK took over bass. They continued to work on the release and decided to tell the world about the project by releasing the first single. Mikhail Myshalov (Nosorog Records) was involved to help with the mixing.
The single was out in March 2016; the vocals for the song, titled «No Way», were done by Sebastian Najder from HellHaven, a Polish band. Inspired by the listeners’ positive feedback, the musicians went on working on the full-length album. Sebastian being busy in his main band, they offered Mick Armstrong (Atma Weapon) to join the project. Upon Mick's agreement the ensemble opted to release another single - «Divided». Soon Slava joined Leon’s main band Erase the Edge as a bass guitarist. They played a show in Vladivostok's BSB Club, and then decided to concentrate on studio work with both musical projects. Apart from that, Slava comes back to recording an LP for his other band — The World Within.
In spring 2017 the lengthy creation of Descenery’s debut album was over, and it was scheduled for release later in summer.
NO WAY
Descenery Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To be alive but never sense it
To stop the wheel
Of progress to rotate it back
All that you need
Is to fuck up the place you rot in
I'll never be
A part of your revolting show
I'll never feel a wish to see
This world through the eyes of yours
You better stay away from me
I don't need to hear your words
I'll never want you to decide
What I should do to feel alright
Why don't you go to hell
It's time for you to step aside
I won't join your selfish crowd
Spread your shit without me
If you're here to fuck around
Don't be sure that one day you will get
Another chance to live the life
You tend to waste and throw away
Keep drowning in your empty strife
I'm not a part of that, no way
Behind the wall
Of so-called joys you try to feel good
Nothing at all
Can satisfy your trite desires
Out of control
Your mind makes thoughts you have to fulfill
What is your goal
For which you sacrifice your life
Fuck yourself, it should be over
I am tired of you and your ideas
Don't waste my time, it's over
I don't want to drown in your abyss
The song "No Way" by Descenery is a powerful statement about rejecting societal norms and refusing to be a part of the crowd. It questions the purpose and meaning of life, and challenges the listener to step away from the monotonous existence that many people lead. The first verse touches on the idea of feeling alive, but not being able to fully sense it. It suggests that we are so caught up in our daily routines that we forget to stop and appreciate the world around us. The lyrics also imply that progress can sometimes be detrimental, and that we should be wary of blindly following the status quo.
In the chorus, the singer declares their independence from others' opinions and expectations. They assert that they will not conform to society's expectations or let anyone else dictate how they should live their life. The second verse criticizes those who are content with superficial pleasures and urges the listener to strive for something more meaningful. The final line, "I don't want to drown in your abyss," conveys a sense of desperation and a refusal to succumb to the emptiness of conformity.

How does it feel
What does it feel like
To be alive but never sense it
To exist without truly experiencing life
To stop the wheel
To halt progress
Of progress to rotate it back
To reverse progress
All that you need
The only requirement
Is to fuck up the place you rot in
Is to cause chaos in your environment
I'll never be
I will never become
A part of your revolting show
Involved in your disgusting display
I'll never feel a wish to see
I will never desire to view
This world through the eyes of yours
The world from your perspective
You better stay away from me
You should keep your distance from me
I don't need to hear your words
I do not require or want to listen to what you have to say
I'll never want you to decide
I will never allow you to determine
What I should do to feel alright
What actions will make me feel okay
Why don't you go to hell
Expressing disdain for the person
It's time for you to step aside
It's time for you to move out of the way
I won't join your selfish crowd
I will not be a part of your self-centered group
Spread your shit without me
Share your nonsense without involving me

If you're here to waste time
Don't be sure that one day you will get
Do not be confident that you will receive
Another chance to live the life
Another opportunity to experience life
You tend to waste and throw away
You often squander and discard
Keep drowning in your empty strife
Continue to struggle in your pointless conflict
I'm not a part of that, no way
I want no involvement in that whatsoever
Behind the wall
Hiding from reality
Of so-called joys you try to feel good
Pretending to be happy with fake pleasures
Nothing at all
There is nothing
Can satisfy your trite desires
Can fulfill your shallow wants or needs
Out of control
Unable to be managed
Your mind makes thoughts you have to fulfill
Your thoughts dictate your actions
What is your goal
What is the objective
For which you sacrifice your life
That you are willing to give up your life for
Fuck yourself, it should be over
An expression of contempt, the situation should end
I am tired of you and your ideas
Exhausted by you and your concepts
Don't waste my time, it's over
Stop spending my time, it's done
I don't want to drown in your abyss
I do not want to be consumed by your darkness
