1) The Noir Pop/Rock group Lillith actually started as a book project between Camilla Hell and the guitarist Per-Christian Frantzen. They met at a Music/Theater High School, and started collaborating when moving to Oslo. But early on they became increasingly drawn to music and after a few rehearsals Lillith was formed. At this time the music were more like a twisted mix of pop and punk. In 2008 they recruited the bassist and cellist Gregorius Grim Knockelkatt, when meeting him randomly in studio for a demo recording. Lillith is a Norwegian indie band. Their debut album was released in 2010, and the band can finally announce the eagerly-awaited second album to be released this year, 2020. This upcoming album has a far more lighter and melodic atmosphere and shows how the band keep developing their signature sound. The new song material has almost a cinematic feeling to it, inspired by the noir pop genre. This has been noted in an English review of the bands single "Beautiful Dreamers", pointing out the interesting noir pop movement happening in Scandinavia at this moment (Nordic Music Review). Their musical influences are wide spread, from trip hop, punk cabaret to alternative folk, but they all prefer the dark side of the music scene, exemplified by bands like The Doors and Velvet underground. Lillith promises a new album in 2020, with a couple of single releases ahead!!!

we'll do whatever we want
we're the beautiful dreamers

2) Lillith is the sideproject of Yendri. The only album released under this name is Survive the Cold Eternity and is generally more distinct darkwave.

Am I right? Is it true?

Overall Meaning

Lillith's song "Nothing Afterwards" portrays a person seeking for the truth about what comes after death. The lyrics display a yearning to know if there is any existence after death or if everything just ends there. This person is pleading for someone to reveal the answer to this enigma, signifying that they are uncertain about their beliefs and are seeking clarity. The repetition of the line "There's nothing afterwards" emphasizes the need for a surety in the answer, and the intense vocals convey the urgency of the question.

The song depicts the theme of mortality and existentialism, which is a common theme in music, art, and literature. Humans naturally have a fascination with death and what comes after it. The lyrics reveal a hopelessness and despair that comes with the notion that there is nothing beyond death. The song could also be interpreted as a message that encourages humans to cherish every moment in life because there is uncertainty about what comes after it. The overall tone of the song conveys a sense of despair and ambiguity, but at the same time prompts the listener to ponder about the utmost essential question regarding our existence.
