1) Rosetta Stone is a British Goth band formed in the mid 1980s.
2) Rosetta Stone was a British pop band from the late 1970s.
3) Rosetta Stone was a pop band from the late 2000s.
1) Rosetta Stone is a British Goth band formed in the mid 1980s around members Porl King (Rosetta Stone, Miserylab) on guitar/vocals/keyboards and Karl North (Rosetta Stone, Dream Disciples) on bass, plus their drum machine and synthesizer rack nicknamed "Madame Razor." The band was named after the Rosetta Stone, an Egyptian historical artifact, and used ancient mythological imagery. Their early style and first album reflected the jangly-guitar sounds of 1980s gothic rock, and their first big break was supporting The Mission.
In 1991 the band released their most successful single Adrenaline, an indie dancefloor anthem which marked a change in direction for the band's sound and line-up. Porl Young (who had joined just after the recording of An Eye For The Main Chance) left to produce Children On Stun whilst Porl King and Karl North remained to take the band into a more industrial sound.
1992 saw a cover version of The Rattles 1970 hit The Witch take the band into the UK top 40 singles chart.
With the advance for 1995's The Tyranny of Inaction, Porl King purchased an Alesis ADAT multi-track digital recorder, the use of which substantially changed Rosetta Stone's sound. That album and most subsequent work featured a much more industrial sound, with extensive use of sampling
At some point in the late 1990s, Porl King lost part of his little finger in an accident, which changed his guitar style considerably. The band split up in 1998 for many reasons but which some say may have included an off-stage fracas with an act from Nightbreed Recordings at Whitby Gothic Weekend. Karl North joined Dream Disciples (their next album Asphyxia notably featured Carl's Rosetta-sounding bass). Porl King produced one more album (contractually) under the name Rosetta Stone for Cleopatra Records. Porl King went on to be a remix producer under the moniker "Miserylab," working for the likes of the mercury music award nominated Elbow and the Fluke side-project Syntax. As Miserylab, Porl has released several Singles, EPs, and Albums including the track Making A Bomb, his latest album From Which No Light Escapes, and singles Appeal To Fears {video} and Gods Amongst Your Friends {video}. Both singles are available for FREE download at miserylab.com.
Rosetta Stone was one of the largest names in the 1990s goth circuit, easily commanding audiences of over two thousand when headlining festivals, however they seemed to prefer to have a more direct relationship with their audience and in later years would usually book short tours of smaller 500+ capacity venues which then sold out. Porl King was one of the few big-name goth musicians to contribute to online discussions, such as Usenet's uk.people.gothic newsgroup. This dedication gained them a solid fanbase - the most loyal followers became known as Quarriers. Today Porl is frequently found on Facebook and Twitter.

Rosetta Stone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Locked up inside you,
Like the calm beneath castles,
Is a cavern of treasures that
No one has been to.
Let's go digging.
Bring it out to take you back in.
You won't do what you'd like to do.
I'll kill what you want me to,
Take what's left and eat it.
Take all or nothing.
Life's just too short to push it away.
Take it all.
Take it all in.
All the way in.
Let it go.
Let it go in.
You won't feel what you'd like to feel.
Lay back and let me show you another way.
If you knock me down I'll come back running,
Knock you down,
It won't be long now
All the way in.
All the way.
Take it up higher.
Four degrees warmer.
Give in now
And let me in.
You'll like this in
Don't pull it out.
It brings us closer than
Dying and cancer and crying.
Come on .
You can take it all.
Just like that.
These lyrics from Rosetta Stone's song "4 In" are a call to action for the listener to break free from their own limitations and explore the hidden depths of their psyche. The singer urges the listener to "get up and free yourself from yourself," suggesting that they have been trapped in an unproductive or stagnant mindset. The "calm beneath castles" is a metaphor for the deep, unknown aspects of the self that are waiting to be discovered - the "cavern of treasures" that has yet to be explored. The singer encourages the listener to "go digging" and bring out what they find to be able to revisit it in a different way.
The lyrics then take a slightly more aggressive tone, with the singer insisting that they will "kill what you want me to, take what's left and eat it" - implying that there is something that the listener is clinging to that is preventing them from fully embracing the present moment. The repeated phrase "take it all" suggests that the listener should be open to experiencing everything that life has to offer, without holding back. The lyric "don't pull it out" could be interpreted as a sexual metaphor, but it could also refer to the idea that the listener should not withdraw from an experience even if it is challenging or uncomfortable.
