(1) A Progressive rock band, formed in late 2004 in Caracas, Venezuela, with the idea of making music without any kind of limits. Formed by three guitars, bass, keyboards and drums, adding a “cuatro” (typical venezuelan instrument) once in a while, you get to see a not so common line-up inside the standards of the genre.
Shortly after the inception of the band, in may 2005, they won the prestigious “Festival Alma Mater Rock” in Caracas, being the first instrumental band in getting that award. Through 2006, they kept on playing live shows and in 2007 they took a break from playing live so they could start working on their first album, which was due sometime around 2008. The album's name will be Nature/Existence and it should come out some time in 2009. Besides this, the band will be appearing in two compilation albums put together by Colossus Magazine (Finland) and Musea Records (France): Rökstenen: a tribute to Swedish progressive rock of the 70's and Paradiso based on Dante's Divine Comedy.
(2) An Ambient Post-Hardcore/Post-Metal project based in Winchester, UK.

Having only been the final line-up since the summer of 2010, their music has developed already into a more mature sound that nods at their contemporaries. Since the start of the self-produced album the band have worked solidly to promote themselves and have made several connections with promoters and other bands. Their music has been described as "perfect sweeping soundscapes", and they bring a fresh style to the young UK hardcore scene.

(16) (Incorrect redirect) Echos, the Portland duo, fall into a genreless mist of both cinematic post-rock style instrumentation and left-of-center pop writing; paving a new path, and style along the way. Clash Magazine notes Echos are "Oddly infectious […] in an electronic haze”. Often self-referential and coated in bitter-romance lyricism, Echos brings the angst of 2006’s emo days and reinvents it with 2018’s anti-pop pop-music. Have been working with with online promotional mecca ‘MrSuicideSheep’ and his label ‘Seeking Blue’ for the last 3+ years – Echos has seen the fortune of millions of streams, impressions, and eyes on their music. Finding importance in the physical, Echos has not only seen gains digitally, but they have found themselves supporting large-room sold out tours with electronic acts like Illenium, on the festival stages of Electric Forest, Snowglobe, and more as well as a bus tour with Alternative metal good-boys ‘I See Stars’.
(17) A Berlin based post-punk/new wave band who formed in 2019 and released their first demo in July 2020. Their Bandcamp: https://echoesberlin.bandcamp.com/album/demo-2020
Lullaby
Echoes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Smashed and splattered,
Comes with the territory,
Comes with being alive
Feeling so confused,
You don't know wrong from right
Since you're damned if you do, I rather don't
But you're damned if you don't
And I cannot do
The suspense is killing you
As it kills me
The world doesn't forget, much less forgives
The lyrics of Lullaby by Echoes convey complex emotions and thoughts. The opening lines "Blood red over porcelain white, smashed and splattered, comes with the territory" describe the reality of being alive and the inevitability of pain and suffering. The imagery of blood against white porcelain is jarring and distressing, highlighting the stark contrast between life and death. The second line "comes with the territory" suggests that difficulties and struggles are part of life and must be accepted.
The following lines "Feeling so confused, You don't know wrong from right, since you're damned if you do, I rather don't, but you're damned if you don't" express a sense of confusion and indecision. The singer seems to be stuck in a situation where every decision leads to a negative outcome. The repetition of "damned if you do, damned if you don't" further emphasizes the sense of hopelessness and frustration.
The final lines "And I cannot do, the suspense is killing you, as it kills me, the world doesn't forget, much less forgives" reveal the weight of past actions and the inability to change the past. The singer is tormented by the knowledge that the world does not forget or forgive, and the suspense is unbearable. Overall, the lyrics of Lullaby by Echoes are a powerful commentary on the human condition and our struggle to navigate the complexities of life.
Line by Line Meaning
Blood red over porcelain white
The stark contrast of the colors reflects the harshness of reality
Smashed and splattered
The imagery of destruction highlights the pain and suffering in life
Comes with the territory
These unpleasant experiences are an inevitable part of living
Feeling so confused
The overwhelming emotions make it hard to differentiate between right and wrong
You don't know wrong from right
The confusion leaves one unsure of the moral path to take
Since you're damned if you do, I rather don't
Making a choice may lead to negative consequences, so it seems better to avoid it altogether
But you're damned if you don't
However, not making a decision also has its own negative consequences
And I cannot do
At times, the weight of the world's problems can feel too heavy to bear
The suspense is killing you
The uncertainty of the future can cause immense anxiety and stress
As it kills me
These same feelings of uncertainty and anxiety also affect the singer and take a toll on them
The world doesn't forget, much less forgives
The world can be unforgiving and harsh, leaving one to carry the weight of past mistakes and regrets
