While widely considered being metal, Lifelover combined several genres into their sound, citing black metal, post-punk, alternative rock and dark ambient. With depressive lyrics, musicianship and atmosphere the band are credited for being one of the most influential depressive black metal bands of all time.
In June, 2005 a demo titled Promo 2005 was recorded but was never officially released. The recording of their debut Pulver began in April, 2006. LR and 1853 were recruited to the band and the album was finished in May, 2006 and later released by Goatowarex in July of that same year.
During 2007, H. also joined the band and the sophomore Erotik was released by Total Holocaust Records in February, 2007. In April, 2008, LR left the band and in June, Fix and S joined as replacements. The band performed their first live-show at Harry B James in Stockholm on September 28th, 2008.
Lifelover completed the work on their third album, Konkurs in June, 2008. It was released on October 10th, 2008 by Avantgarde Music. After the release, Osmose Productions reissued both Pulver and Erotik on CD format in 2009. Erotik was reissued on January 21st, 2009 and Pulver on May 7th and thus Lifelover's popularity grew. In April, 2009 1853 and S left the band respectively. Later in August of that year, Non took the place of S as the band's full-time drummer.
Their fourth official effort, the MCD titled Dekadens was released on October 8th, 2009 through Osmose Productions. Shortly after Dekadens's release and a few shows in Germany in January, 2010 Non left the band and 1853 rejoined. In April of that year, Non rejoined the band. On February 14th, 2011 Lifelover released their fourth and final album Sjukdom.
On September 10th, 2011 the band reported through their official Facebook page that band member B had died the previous day, stating: "We are very sad to report that yesterday our bandmate and brother B has passed away. The concerts today and tomorrow are still to be performed, but in a different form in his honor. This information is valid and, in its extreme sadness, true. A final statement with further details is to come."
Their last live performance took place in Rotterdam on September 11th, 2011 after which that the band decided to split up for good.

In English, the lyrics translate to "I can't find any answers - Are there any answers? I can't find any answers - Are there any answers? I can't find any answers - There are no answers!" The song title "Mental Central Dialog" hints at the internal dialogue that someone may have when they are struggling with their mental health. These lyrics in particular seem to express a feeling of frustration and hopelessness that often accompany mental illness.
The repetition of the phrase "I can't find any answers - Are there any answers?" suggests a sense of confusion and uncertainty. The repeated question may indicate a desire for clarity and understanding but not being able to find it. Similarly, the phrase "There are no answers!" expresses a feeling of defeat and possibly resignation. These emotions may be amplified if someone is struggling with a mental illness and feeling unable to find relief or comfort. Overall, the song appears to be a raw and honest expression of the experience of living with mental illness.

The scream at the beginning still destroys me every time, pure agony

I feel (?!) the continuity of the song is even more of a soul (???) destroyer (/dustbin) ? 🎉

It reminds of Volatiles from Dying Light, they sound the same

@@ritarexx Haha this is so fucking random, but yeah I agree there are some similarities.

discovered this just when pulling myself out of things for the first time in years. Almost makes me glad to have experienced years of hell, so I can fully appreciate this piece of art.

Been stuck in my head for months now. I have an unhealthy obsession with this song.
@StinkIncProd
This is perfection in melody and lyrics and I can't pinpoint why. Just perfect combination and will probably never occur again.
