At the beginning of their carreer they played several cover songs of other bands but soon they began to write their own songs and look for a label. After 34 concerts in Italy, Austria, Switzerland and Ex-Yugoslavia they recorded their first demo tape “After The End”. This demo tape included 10 songs but was never released – it was only used for reaching some fans in Europe. Probably they couldn’t imagine what an effect this tape would have. The press and many people soon began to put their eyes on the band: many reviews and interviews made ViT to one of the most amazing Italian Gothic Acts. This enormous attention helped them to get a deal with the label “Aural Music”. At this time they released “Seed of an Ancient Pain”, which is said to be the best Gothic Indie release of 2007. Thanks to their MySpace profile and a great promotion they quickly reached lots of new fans.
In 2010 they release their second album "Underskin", followed by "Welcome To Vladyland" in 2011.
Die Today
Vlad In Tears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No matter what's the day,
The only thing to say,
It's not your lucky day.
No matter where you hide
No matter which is the side
The only thing to say
No matter how fast you'll run
No matter what you have done
The only thing to say
You're gonna die today
I wanna kill your day
I wanna throw you away
I wanna crash your brain
I wanna let you drain
And I will see you cry from the light of the blind
Die today.
Die today.
No matter if you will pray
I wanna kill your day
The only thing to say
You're gonna die today
You're gonna die today
No matter what you say
No matter what's the day
The only thing to say
It's not Your lucky day
No matter where you hide
No matter which is the side
The only thing to say
No place where you'll escape
You're gonna die today
I wanna kill your day
I wanna throw you away
I wanna crash your brain
I wanna let you drain
And I will see you cry from the light of the blind
And I will see you cry from the light of the blind
The song "Die Today" by Vlad in Tears is a dark and foreboding track that features lyrics about death and the inescapable fate that awaits us all. The song seems to be directed at someone specific, with the singer expressing a desire to "kill your day", "throw you away", "crash your brain", and "let you drain". The repetitive chorus of "you're gonna die today" reinforces the song's ominous theme and suggests that the person being addressed is doomed to a terrible fate.
The verses of the song are structured around the idea that no matter what someone does, they cannot escape their fate. The lyrics state that "no matter what you say" or "where you hide", there is "no place where you'll escape" from death. This idea is reinforced throughout the song, with the singer stating that "no matter how fast you'll run" or "what you have done", death will still come for you. The final verse even suggests that praying will not save you from your fate.
Overall, "Die Today" is a haunting song that deals with the inevitability of death and the fear and anxiety that can come with that knowledge. The repetition of the chorus and the dark, heavy instrumentation create a sense of doom and despair that is difficult to shake.
