Alive displays an uncommon musical diversity where energy, power and melody mix into a precise hit parade. The melodies are always first priority on Alive, but aggression and fury are also delivered in a fierce tempo. The end result is a pacey album full of energy.
Guitarist Johan Axelsson says: Alive was written and produced focusing on creating a cocky debut with major hit-potential. We deliberately chose to peel off unnecessarily complicated elements from the songs, which resulted in the longest song on the record clocking in only just over four minutes. "Straight to the point" has been the motto for the entire album.
Alive was recorded and mixed during 2009 in Sarea's hometown Norrköping together with Daniel Gese and Marcus Lundberg and later on mastered by Peter in de Betou in Stockholm. The album includes guest appearances by Tomas Lindberg (At The Gates, Disfear, Skitsystem) and Sebastian Roos (Liverpool, Shineth).
Sarea deliver modern, melodic metal cast in aggression, and their album Alive was released in late 2010. Make sure not to miss out on this mind-blowing debut.

Sarea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
An open game in mind wash
Free for all, though it's you and me
To penetrate our afterlives
Bringing me down to a level of yours
Feeding my stupidity
Still I know it's you and not me
I'll bring you down even lower
Face to face, and facing death
See the final horizon
Do you fear what you've become?
Will you act before we're done?
All the treachery I feel inside is you
Never again we'll run in line
Nothing's left we're dead inside
Seek no shelter now, this is nemesis
Racing down my fearless road
Adrenaline at boiling point
Conquering my inner doubts
Punching the nerves outside my skin
Beating you up in our circle of war
Sharp as a razor high on speed
Permanent we fire at will
Endless sad decay
Face to face, and facing death
See the final horizon
Do you fear what you've become?
Will you act before we're done?
All the treachery I feel inside is you
Never again we'll run in line
Nothing's left we're dead inside
Seek no shelter now, this is nemesis
The lyrics to Sarea's song "Nemesis" delve into themes of betrayal, conflict, and the realization of one's true nature. The opening lines, "Would you mind to raise the stakes? An open game in mind wash," serve as a challenge to the listener or the subject of the song to up the ante and confront their true feelings and intentions. The line "feeding my stupidity" suggests that the singer is aware of their own shortcomings, but they are willing to go along with the other person's plan anyway.
The chorus, "Do you fear what you've become? Will you act before we're done?" speaks to the consequences of one's actions and the fear of facing the results of one's choices. This is followed by the line "all the treachery I feel inside is you," which suggests that the singer feels betrayed and deceived by the other person. The lines "nothing's left we're dead inside, seek no shelter now, this is nemesis" serve as a declaration that the conflict between the two parties has reached a point of no return and it is now time for them to face the consequences of their actions.
Overall, the lyrics of "Nemesis" showcase a deep sense of conflict, betrayal, and emotional turmoil which is brought to life through the aggressive, fast-paced music and the precise, powerful vocals.
