    Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Deluxe Edition, Grey / Black semitransparent
    Country: Spain
    Released: 06 Jun 2015

    Circuncelion recovers the essence of the legendary label 4AD, Dark Wave Minimal
    absolutely wonderful, with a voice reminiscent of Brendan Perry or Peter Murphy.
    Essential!

    Begotten Forgotten is an introspective journey from the deep core of the soul
    to a crude vision of modern world, the humankind who inhabits it and its irremissible
    course towards the madness. Full of feelings and signs, the artist makes of
    this work an interlocution, a magic key with which enters the listeners hearts
    and floods them with a stream of unknown sensations of a great emotional weight.
    Just over 46 mins of something more than music, something more than words, a
    time period beyond time, beyond reality.

    Circuncelion – Song Of Ophelia

    marzo 4, 2025

    Circuncelion – Song Of Ophelia, song included in Carved In Waters, romantic and esoteric.

    Recorded in December 2009 At Lighthouse Studios By Igor & Romina 

    Produced by Igor.
    lyrics
    Stagnant waters
    Your eyelids lay
    wardens of the endless rest

    where the wounded swan
    plays to be swan
    and the toads swell up their chests

    and the moon as
    lone as always
    make’s out her ghastly shades

    of her ancient
    pale face broken
    for a million black decades

    before the watchful
    wakefulness
    of night beasts which accompanies
    the liquid dance of all these dreams
    you have stood still
    for many years

    timeless slumber
    whence you wait in secrecy
    for the soul whose set alight
    your (cold) paralysed swim(s)

    (your) wan skin melts away
    (your) lank black hair afloat
    nothingness is silence
    which quietened all your groans

    where your heart was strangled
    where black angel won
    (the scythe’s shade)

    from Carved In Waters

    Lisa Germaine Gerrard (/dʒəˈrɑːrd/; born 12 April 1961) is an Australian musician, singer and composer who rose to prominence as part of the music group Dead Can Dance with music partner Brendan Perry. She is known for her unique singing style technique (glossolalia), influenced by her childhood spent in multicultural areas of Melbourne. She has a dramatic contralto voice and has a vocal range of three octaves.

    Born and raised in Melbourne, Gerrard played a pivotal role in the city’s Little Band scene and fronted post-punk group Microfilm before co-founding Dead Can Dance in 1981. With Perry, she explored numerous traditional and modern styles, laying the foundations for what became known as neoclassical dark wave. She sings sometimes in English and often in a unique language that she invented. In addition to singing, she is an instrumentalist for much of her work, most prolifically using the yangqin (a Chinese hammered dulcimer). Gerrard’s first solo album, The Mirror Pool, was released in 1995. She has been involved in a wide range of projects, starting her first collaborative album in 1998 with Pieter Bourke, and then with various artists throughout her career, who comprised Patrick Cassidy, Klaus Schulze, Hans Zimmer, among others. She has scored numerous award-winning motion picture soundtracks.

    As of 2020, Gerrard has released four solo albums and collaborated on sixteen albums. She composed and contributed the scores to more than 48 movies. She received a Golden Globe Award for the music score to the 2000 film Gladiator, on which she collaborated with Hans Zimmer. She wrote the score of Balibo which went on to win an ARIA award for Best Original Soundtrack and an APRA Screen music award for Best feature film score. Overall she has won 11 awards receiving 23 nominations. Gerrard has been nominated for a Grammy Award twice…
