Wildpath's story beg… Read Full Bio ↴Wildpath is a symphonic metal band from Paris.
Wildpath's story began during the summer of 2001, by the musical meeting of the keyboarder (Alexis) and the guitar player (Olivier), who started immediately to compose some songs. They had begun to practice their instruments only few months before. The kind of music played at this time was Punk Rock, with a melodic influence. At the beginning of 2002 , they tried to find other musicians (singer, drummer and bass player). During the following year, the songs became more and more Heavy-Metal influenced, always melodic.
The musical knowledge of the band members has evolved, and a lot of musicians joined in for a few months then left, (a line up with several singers for example) and finally form the current line-up. Recently we participated in several shows (in front of 400 persons to celebrate the 50 years of rock for instance) and recorded Necromancer Demo by ourselves, at home.
Now, the band has more than twenty average songs, still work on new stuff, and strive to improve its instrumental technique. And this, to be able to play the kind of music they love. Although each member wants to achieve his studies, all of them care about keeping their passion: the music, and going on playing together whatever will happen. Besides, music is one of the most important professional purpose for the band.
Buried Moon
Wildpath Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This must be an evil charm from the lady by the lake
She keeps on stealing starlight reflecting from the sky
This witch is a plague, prevention is their duty
Moon in the sky be our guide and light our way through the dark
Ness of the night won't blind us as long as we'll stare at the stars
Stars won't fall and in the silence I will wait for my blessing day to come
In the depths I'll dive to find my deceased light, a moon reflecting in the sky
Stop this masquerade by reaching her house by the lake
In this starlight fulfilled museum, no one’s there
Standing on the shore she's pouring a shiny stream
That rekindles (a) sunken moon reflecting in (the) sky again
The song Buried Moon by Wildpath is a hauntingly beautiful composition that speaks of a mystical world where the moon has been buried and there is no light to guide the people. The lyrics suggest that this may have been caused by an evil charm from a woman who lives by the lake and steals starlight from the sky. The people recognize her as a witch and feel it is their duty to prevent her from causing more harm. However, they also believe that the moon can be their guide and light the way through the darkness of the night. Despite the darkness and the absence of the moon, they believe that the stars will not fall and that they will find their way.
The second verse of the song speaks of the singer waiting for their blessing day to come despite the silence and darkness that surrounds them. They dive into the depths to find their light, which is the moon reflecting in the sky. They then decide to put an end to the masquerade by reaching the witch's house by the lake. In the final lines of the song, the woman is seen standing on the shore pouring a shiny stream that rekindles the sunken moon reflecting in the sky again.
The song is a beautiful tale of mystery and magic, where the moon is not just a celestial body, but a source of guidance and hope. The lyrics encourage the listener to look beyond the darkness and find their way with the help of the stars and the moon. The song is a perfect example of how music can transport us to a world of our own imagination, and how the beauty of the lyrics can inspire us to keep going even in the darkest of times.
