After some demos and EP's the first full-length album 'Under The Northern Sky' was released in 2001. The album was received very well by both the press and the fans.
Released in 2003, 'Ice Upon The Night' is the album that made Immortal Souls known to both sides of the Atlantic. It was released Europe by Fear Dark records and in North America by Facedown records, where it sold nearly 5,000 copies so far. After the release Immortal Souls toured Europe twice, playing festivals and clubs in Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Belgium and Norway. And of course they also played the famous Tuska Festival in Finland.
To please the fans who didn’t get hold of their older releases, Fear Dark re-released the complete history of Immortal Souls on ‘Once Upon A Time In The North’. This special 2-CD digipack includes their complete debut-cd ‘Under The Northern Sky’, their two sold-out ep’s ‘Divine Wintertime’ and ‘The Cleansing’ and some rare demo-tracks. Together with the old material two new songs can be found on this double-album.
In 2007, Immortal Souls signed a new recording contract with Dutch label Dark Balance Records, which would handle its future releases in Europe. The band also released 'Wintereich', their third full-length album. The album is a four-part concept album and has been well-received by fans thus far.
Constant
Immortal Souls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sorrow - fill the lives of falseness and lies.
Not hunger or thirst, diseases or the wars.
Nothing is enough for dying mankind.
There is no horror, which man is not capable.
Misery - and failure, is it what man is made of?
I step aside to listen, the cry of this world.
Pain comes in many forms, enhanced in hands of men.
I have less so you get more.
Constant are the cries.
You have less so I get more.
Constant are the cries.
Constant - amount of pain driving me insane.
I have less so you get more.
Constant are the cries.
You have less so I get more.
Constant are the cries.
Have a feast at Vanity Fair.
I have less so you get more.
Constant are cries.
Have a feast at Vanity Fair.
You have less so I get more.
Constant are the cries.
The lyrics to Immortal Souls' song Constant portray a bleak outlook on the state of humanity. The opening line "There is none righteous, all have turned aside" sets a tone of hopelessness and despair, suggesting that all people have succumbed to the darkness within them. The next line describes the pervasive feeling of sorrow and falseness in the world, painting a picture of a society ruled by lies and deceit. The song then goes on to list a variety of different struggles faced by humanity - hunger, thirst, disease, and war - and concludes that none of these are enough to satisfy the constant pain and suffering felt by those living in the world.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, with repeated lines emphasizing the "constant" nature of pain and suffering. The lyrics seem to suggest that there is a constant cycle of give and take - some people have less so others can have more, and vice versa. The final lines of the chorus describe a "feast at Vanity Fair" - a reference to the famous novel by William Makepeace Thackeray - highlighting the selfish and superficial nature of humanity.
Overall, the lyrics to Constant are a powerful condemnation of the human condition. The song portrays a world without hope or redemption, where pain and suffering are constant and unrelenting. However, there is also a sense of solidarity among those who are struggling, with the repeated refrain of "constant are the cries" suggesting that everyone is united in their suffering.
