They combine the sound of atmospheric black metal and ambient music with a special focus on keyboards to create huge, wintery and depressive soundscapes. Melankoli's style can best be compared to the works of ColdWorld, Lustre, and Death Aura.
Coma
Melankoli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Промерзший дом окутан сном, в холодном воздухе тоска;
Зима сполна взяла свое и мне обратно не отдаст
Тепло ушедших летних дней; взамен – лишь холод и снега.
Глаза закрылись навсегда, им непонятен этот свет,
Нет больше веры в новый день – пустым он будет для меня,
И равнодушие во всем – на все вопросы даст ответ.
Застынет пламенем надежд на заколоченном окне.
И пусть хоть кто-то скажет мне, что я когда-нибудь очнусь,
Пускай соврет, пусть безразличным будет, пусть…
Ведь это сон… Жестокий сон… Оплот покоя в тишине…
In the song "Coma," Melankoli paints a bleak and desolate picture of a world that has lost its color and contrast. The frozen house is enveloped in sleep while the melancholy hangs in the cold air. Winter has taken all the warmth of the summer days, leaving behind only cold and snow. The singer's eyes have closed forever, and they find the light incomprehensible. They have lost their faith in a new day and everything seems indifferent. The answer to every question is apathy. The singer is alive today, but tomorrow existence is not guaranteed, and they dwell on the idea that the last ember of hope will freeze overnight. Though others tell them they will someday wake up, the singer thinks it is a cruel dream, a dream that offers a haven of repose in silence.
The lyrics convey a sense of despair, desolation and hopelessness. The world has lost its appeal, and the singer is detached from everything and everyone around them. The song is a representation of a person who has given up on life and has resigned themselves to the inevitability of death. They romanticize the idea of sleeping and peacefulness, even if it means dying. The lyrics are haunting and vivid and describe well the mental struggles of someone who is going through a difficult period in life.

Поблекли краски, этот мир утратил свой былой контраст,
The colors have faded, this world has lost its former contrast,
Промерзший дом окутан сном, в холодном воздухе тоска;
The frozen house is covered in sleep, melancholy in the cold air;
Зима сполна взяла свое и мне обратно не отдаст
Winter has taken all it can and will not give back to me
Тепло ушедших летних дней; взамен – лишь холод и снега.
The warmth of long gone summer days; instead - only cold and snow.
Глаза закрылись навсегда, им непонятен этот свет,
Eyes have closed forever, they don't understand this light,
Нет больше веры в новый день – пустым он будет для меня,
There's no more faith in a new day - it will be empty for me,
И равнодушие во всем – на все вопросы даст ответ.
Indifference to everything - will give an answer to all questions.
Сейчас я жив, а завтра – нет, и пусть последняя заря
Now I'm alive, but tomorrow - no, let the last dawn
Застынет пламенем надежд на заколоченном окне.
Freeze with the flames of hope on the boarded-up window.
И пусть хоть кто-то скажет мне, что я когда-нибудь очнусь,
And let someone tell me that I will wake up someday,
Пускай соврет, пусть безразличным будет, пусть…
Let them lie, let them be indifferent, let them...
Ведь это сон… Жестокий сон… Оплот покоя в тишине…
Because this is a dream... A cruel dream... The haven of peace in silence...
