1. Though its earliest echoes ring back to 1997, American heavy metal act PHARAOH released its debut album via the Cruz del Sur Music label in 2003. Paradoxically entitled After the Fire, the album’s robust and resilient songwriting caught the ears of selective metal fans worldwide. Three years later in 2006, The Longest Night fell and was an immediate underground favorite. As modern and hi-resolution as it was pure and orthodox, The Longest Night also boasted a substantive production that allowed all ten songs to resonate in full splendor.
Once again inspired by the fans’ response to their hard work, the songwriters of PHARAOH laid plans to make yet another leap forward, and by the middle of 2007, a third album was ready for production. Returning producer/engineer Matt Crooks and the band set to work without hesitation, starting in July and continuing for the remainder of the year. The band had already agreed on titling the album Be Gone several months before entering the studio, because a singular theme emerged early in the songwriting process. Songs such as the radiant "Speak to Me" and the bottomless epic "Buried at Sea" examine the inherent flaws of mankind, pitted hopelessly against the seemingly omniscient and unwavering power of nature. Similarly, the soaring strains of "Dark New Life" and sinister waves of "Telepath" offer narratives from a world where the human race is blazing paths to literal and emotional extinction. The inevitable disappearance of mankind is the overarching theme embodied in Be Gone’s musical storytelling.
Musically, Be Gone features songwriting that is at once complex and compact. Matt Johnsen’s now-trademark layering of guitars creates a rich and fertile backdrop for master-vocalist Tim Aymar’s powerful and arresting expressions. The rhythm section of bassist Chris Kerns and drummer Chris Black keeps the momentum high, deftly supporting all of the multi-layered melodic invention happening at every turn. Always mindful of not only the genre’s traditions but also its own, the band this time invited Riot guitarists Mark Reale and Mike Flyntz to contribute hard-cutting solos to "Dark New Life", and regular guest guitarist Jim Dofka performs a dazzling spot on "No Remains". Because the four bandmates form various songwriting combinations, PHARAOH’s albums have a characteristic diversity and depth that few other bands achieve.
PHARAOH’s songwriting and studio performances have reached greater heights with each successive album. Grandiose and inviting, Be Gone out-classes its predecessors, and few heavy metal groups have ever sounded as erudite as PHARAOH does, ripened from a decade of intense work together. Like the albums before it, Be Gone is the band’s invitation to all free-thinking heavy metal loyalists to join them at the edges of the genre’s collective imagination. PHARAOH’s steadfast dedication to its album-making craft has delayed its live debut, which will finally come in the form of select shows during 2008. Aiming high as always, PHARAOH will deliver every bit of its majestic energy onstage, performing songs from its entire history. Indeed, 2008 may deliver PHARAOH unto the heavy metal mainstream, thanks to the band’s long-awaited live debut and of course the release of Be Gone, a future classic of American heavy metal.
Mid-2010 PHARAOH released a 7" split single along with Canvas Solaris as a Tribute To Coroner, featuring a melodic rendition of Coroner's "Tunnel Of Pain", a new E.P. being slated for early 2011 celebrates 10 years of Pharaoh with several special renditions of cult favorites and various PHARAOH-esque arrangements fans would normally not expect.
2. A doom/sludge metal band from New Jersey. Since 2009, Pharaoh have been playing and touring throughout the East Coast and Southern United States. The Demonstration was released in 2011 on A389 Recordings. This spring, Pharaoh releases This House is Doomed, our 2012 7". They are for you. They are going to be available for digital download when you purchase a copy as well.
3. A sleaze rock/glam punk band from Washington State released in 1991 EP "On Your Knees".
4. Russian hip-hop artist representing Dead Dynasty coalition. He used to be part of YungRussia, a association created by Boulevard Depo in 2014, which ceased to exist in 2016. In the past, he adopted other pseudonyms, like Leroy Kid and Castro The Silent. He is very influenced by Rammstein, Kid Cudi and Kurt Cobain, and has been described as a mix of "Justin Bieber" and "Kurt Kobain". About this, he said: "if I'm being compared to Kurt Kobain, it means I'm doing everything right."

Pharaoh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Сколько они стоят? Marlboro, Martini.
Рисуешь мне сюжеты, но ведь мы не в фильме.
Я знаю тебе цену - Marlboro, Martini.
Ты же порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Ты порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Она мокнет рядом слаще,
Чем в любом из своих фильмов.
Я приеду на колёсах,
Позже улечу на крыльях.
Цифры в её голове.
Ей бы взлететь еще выше, наверх!
Не разводи меня, я видел столько
Таких, как ты - в глазах: бабки, секс и травка.
Живёт бесплатно
За счёт мудаков, что башляют за кров.
Башляют за то, чтобы она Оставляла
Свой запах духов на день или год.
Надень то белье,
Что пока ещё с бирками;
Я сыт дешёвыми играми.
Что за чёрт укусил меня?
Её время сексом усыпано!
Мы не наломали дров, но из легиона
Длинноногих, я узнаю стон её. Вижу в толпе её.
Прогоню из памяти. От себя избавь меня, -
Больше не моя порнозвезда!
Блант в лицо, и я ушёл. Не торгуй моей душой.
Всё, что было между нами Xan помог забыть, как сон.
Блант в лицо, и я ушёл. Не торгуй моей душой.
Всё, что было между нами Xan помог забыть, как сон.
Нет, мне не страшно наблюдать за тобой.
Мне похуй, как ты изображаешь боль.
На экране напускной жар и стон.
Два тела без имён.
Засекаю время, твой час со мной.
Всё, что говоришь — как под водой.
Будь собой, будь собой;
Раздевайся, сука — камера, мотор!
Залезаю в неё глубоко.
Как же тебе хорошо. Я закрываю ей рот.
На глазах у мудаков крик на весь лофт!
Не сдерживай меня и не проси пощады -
Я же не играю эту роль, е!
То, чем занимаемся нельзя назвать любовью.
Детка, это не любовь!
Твоя жизнь — это купюры, порох, вермут,
Сигареты и дешевый понт; рэп-эскорт целый год.
На свидания в кинотеатр ты не ходишь — это принцип,
У тебя же тут свое кино и режиссер.
Пока идет монтаж, -
Спрячь свои слёзы в чужих кошельках.
Е, е, лежит порнозвезда.
Все твои секреты видно в объективе.
Сколько они стоят? Marlboro, Martini.
Рисуешь мне сюжеты, но ведь мы не в фильме.
Я знаю тебе цену - Marlboro, Martini.
Ты же порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Ты порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда!)
Порнозвезда! (Звезда, звезда).
The song Порнозвезда, or "Porn Star" in English, by PHARAOH Feat. NOA is about the life of a porn star and the way she is perceived by society. The lyrics describe a man's relationship with a woman who works in the porn industry. He speaks about seeing her secrets through the camera lens, and how she is valued by the cigarettes and alcohol she consumes, in this case Marlboro and Martini. He seems to understand her worth, as she is a "porn star," but questions her commitment to their relationship. The lyrics are repetitive, with the chorus heavily featuring the phrase "ты порнозвезда," or "you're a porn star," emphasizing the theme of her profession defining her.
The song paints a vivid and sometimes uncomfortable picture of what it might be like to be a porn star. The singer speaks of her time spent with clients, who pay for her to stay in luxury apartments and give her gifts, all in exchange for her company. He describes her as living off the "mudaks," or fools, who spend their money on her. She is portrayed as jaded and uninterested, barely reacting to the man's advances. In fact, she is more interested in the camera that is capturing their interaction than the interaction itself. The man acknowledges that what they are doing cannot be called love, as they are not committed to each other.
Overall, the song seems to explore the darker side of the porn industry, highlighting how it can consume those who work in it and how it can define their worth in the eyes of others. The chorus repetition of "ты порнозвезда" emphasizes the theme of labels and how they can overshadow individuals.
