INTRODUCTION
Tristania의 전-보컬리스트이자 기타리스트, 동시에 메인 송 라이터였던 Morten Veland가 지난 몇 해전부터 고딕/메탈/록 씬의 밑바탕부터 새로운 공헌을 이루어 내기 시작했는데, 이 어둡고도 짙은 안개가 드린 장르에 그의 새로운 밴드 Sirenia가 이전 어느 누구보다 신선한 사운드라는 하나의 목표를 가지고 언더그라운드 씬 전체를 재창조하고 있 다.
Sirenia는 고딕 메탈과 클래식의 짙은 영향이 드린 록 음악을 바탕으로 블랙 메탈과 데스 메탈의 요소마저 포함하고 있는데, 이들의 사운드에는 파워 리듬 기타와 우울한 바이올린, 12현 기타, 안개와도 같은 키보드의 도움으로 프로그레시브 하면서도 역동적으로 배열된 파워풀한 드럼과 베이스로 튼튼한 기초 역할을 하고 있다.
Sirenia의 보컬에는 그로울링부터 스크리밍, 여성과 남성의 클린 보컬, 중창, 샘플 등 다양한 영역이 등장하고 있는데, 모든 곡들마다 강렬하면서도 다양한 변화와 함께 삶과 죽음, 사랑과 증오, 망상과 열망 그리고 정신적 종말의 투영을 바탕으로 한 가사를 담고 있다.
Sirenia는 2001년 초, 결성되었는데 Morten이 개인적인 문제와 음악적 견해차를 이유로 Tristania와 결별하면서 시작되었다.
하지만 그에게 가득 찬 아이디어와 함께 그는 이를 자유롭게 할 준비를 시작했는데, 새로운 악기를 발명하는가 하면, 자신의 홈 스튜디오에서 작곡에 많은 시간을 투자하였다.
두 장의 훌륭한 앨범 At Sixes And Sevens, An Elexir For Existence과 EP, Sirenian Shores를 발매한 이들은 더욱 큰 몸짓을 위한 준비가 되어 있었고 이는 바로 Nine Destines And A Downfall을 통해 완벽하게 표현될 수 있었다.
새 앨범은 Sirenia가 완성한 최고의 앨범으로 손꼽히고 있는데, 여기에는 새로운 여성 보컬 Monika Pedersen이 Henriette Bordvik의 후임으로 가입하여 전세계를 향한 이들 이번 최고의 작품을 더욱 훌륭히 완성시켜 주고 있다.
Nine Desties and a Downfall은 두 귀로 들은 것을 믿을 수 없을만큼 장대 하고, 재치 넘치며 독창적인 앨범으로서 전세계 고딕 메탈 씬에 역사적인 사건으로 기록될 것이다. ....  ....

I stroll through days and nights
And through hours of weeping
Can i mend by broken heart by
Speaking to myself
I've been lost and found
And broken down bye the treason in your eyes
I've been turned around
Burned upside down by the fraud in all your lies
Feel the lights are fading within me
There's a void and a growing anxiety
I can feel the bitter end draws near
I concede this life has nothing more for me
I fall through rays of light
In the hours of redeeming
Last call and far too late now
As far as i can tell
I've been burned in life, burned too many times
Wheel of fire's still burning
I have done my time, walked too many lines
And my soul keeps on burning

If you were here
I'd whisper sweet nothings in your ear
And appeal to all your fears
If you were mine *If you were only mine*
I'd bring you so much further down
And twist your mind until the end of time
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind
If you are down
I will come to chain you to the ground
And penetrate your mind.
If you are lost *if only you are lost*
I'll be there to break your trust
And ravage all your lust for life, my love
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.

There's a river that runs along
Your fading hope and darkened days to come
The lights are fading out once more
I see you falter so lost and blind
I know a shadow still lingers in in your mind
But I can't lead you on, not this time
I've been dreaming for far too long
And my dreams all break one by one
I'm still standing, still facing the fall
Will I give in the distant calls
I've been watching your crumbling walls
I've endured a thousand tears or more
In a frozen moment of time, I see you fall
Only memories remain of you now
You' ve given in to darkness and to doubt
You couldn't find the strength to cast
The demons out

From a distance
I can see you descend
Like golden grains of sand
A weeping sun is descending
And the moon now ascending here
In these cold winterlands
I've been strolling through the pouring rain
In search of better days
I've been strolling down the darkest of lanes
Just to find it's all in vain
The sundown gives birth to another night
As the moon comes crawling across the sky
My soul feels cold and my heart is tired
I'm burning inside, can't stop the flames, the fire
From a distance
I can see you pretend
That your life's on the mend
A thousand riverines weeping
And a silver moon sweeping swift
Across forsaken lands
I've been crawling on my knees and hands
I've watched all suns descend
I've been dreaming some day, I'll ascend
Before the bitter end

I can feel the eyes of your despair
Even where you're not here
I can feel your pain within myself
It's still keeping me down here
Life keeps on growing colder year by year
With a winter heart and my frozen tears
I stand lone to face my darkest fears
I've been wasting away, I' ve been fading inside
I've been drifting away from the lights in my life
I've been living in vain, living insane
I've been tripping down all the darkest of lanes
There's a shadow that dwells inside your head
Within mine as well
Turns our lives into a living hell
Like a curse and a spell
I've been drifting away from days of light
I've been swept away far into the night
I guess I'll never ever make it back
On a morning, a summer dawn
You speak in riddles and rhymes
From a distance your life it seems
Like a frozen heart in neon dreams

Sail away, my little sister
Sail away to the other side
There's a light and a darkened road
There's a night and a fading hope
There was a dream that once was mine
But now it seems it has passed with time
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away to the other side
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away far into the night
Where time seems much better
Than this void called life
There's a voice inside my head
There's a hope, now long since dead
It's all a wonder, will I abide?
I hear you calling from the other side
I hear you calling from the other side
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away to the other side
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away far into the night
Where times seems much better
Than this void called life
I hear you calling from the other side
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away to the other side
Sail away, my little sister
Sail away far into the night
Where time seems much better
Than this void called life

Keep on falling, I keep falling down
So far, far, deeper and further
Keep on calling, I keep calling you now
But I can't hear no answers
I've been feeling so lost
I'm giving in on in all
Voices calling in the back of my mind
They're calling all the time
I face a door, but there's no key to be found
When my life comes crashing down
As my last day unfolds
And hands turn numb and cold
Sail on my love
Sail on to the other side
Sail on further into the night
Wane staring through my window pane
World gone insane
A fading flame
In the falling September rain
I strive in vain to find a way
To case the pain

I can see you walk out away
Turn your back on all your feelings
Seems you're loosing yourself again
To a void so devastating
And I can't deny I am the one,
The one to blame
For all your loss and your fading flame
Life it feels like a frozen winter dream
Like a silent scream
Life it feels like a thousand frozen tears
And the night dwells within me
I can see you break down again
All your life you've been bound to treason
On your knees and your tears descend
Oh your life's a fallen season
And time can not heal these wounds my friend,
Not again
So here you'll stand to face the end
Beyond the silence
Where your voices whisper to my heart
In the midst of December
On a night that comes without a star
I fall into darkness
Like I've done a thousand times before
I've burned all bridges
To the treacherous world outside my door

In the fields of summer
I will dance away with you
I never knew the pain would see us through
And though we fear the silence
We never ever realized
That life was only passing gently by
When the darkness seems to fall
Then I can hear you call
Your voice is clearer now than before
And in the summer rain
I'll carry all your pain
If I could only see you again
In the glades of summer
A light still wanes in you
Like winter days long gone
In midst of June
And though the cross feels lighter
On a warm midsummer night
Why do we then still feel so cold inside
When the darkness seems to fall
Then I can hear you call
Your voice is weaker now than before
And in the summer rain
You gave in to your pain
And life will never be the same again

You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.
You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
Inside my mind.
