lyrics

YOU PLAY THE VICTIM SO WELL
I need to stop the holding on
It’s time to embrace the letting go
And the process goes a long, long way
To appease and heal the soul

And my conscience is clear
I shoulder no blame
My conscience is clear

You fired the first shot
But now you’re playing the victim
But I stand on the moral high ground
And you play the victim so well
But you play the fool better still

You play the victim so well.

New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough. m4rkos1334

Strangers
by Grey Gallows

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze

Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021

I've enjoyed The Wake since the 90s. The new album feels like a trip to right where they left off! Goth Rock at it's best! I can't wait to see where they go from here!! aklosowski22
