Description
“I’ve had enough of this sickening war and it’s murderous puppets!They don’t understand the language of music cannot be spoken in death.
I never took a life! Maybe now is the time to take mine.
In the name of music;
shall I cut my wrists or hang myself high by a violin string?
A symphonic suicide is what I shall bring!”
This is part of the lyrcs of one really amazing song!
Its called "The Funerary Dirge of a Violinist" played by the band Carach Angren, they are from Netherlands and they play black Metal. And what i love about them is that they tell such a grteat storys in their albums, that it feels like reading some cool book, or watching a horror movie. Other than that their music is awesome! It defenetly can bring the needed atmosphere into my dark room at 3 at the morning and keep me awake the whole ninght. (true story
And the vokalist Seregor has great voice aswell. If you are into extreme genre, even a little, hear them.
I saw, After drawing my little Behemoth tribute, that people arownd my deviantart are not this much into Black Metal, but even so, give Carach Angren a try, just because you love me
Ok anyway, about the song. It is my favorite from their new album "Where The Corpses Sink Forever" If i can even choose a fave...
The album is about seven visions of war and a man who is cursed to live trough them again and again. And all the visions are fucking creepy! The song Called "Sir John" especially! Burr...
So the Violinist ia one of those visions, and i really love the quote on the drawing.Come to think of it for a moment i thought that this song will have happy ending... But there are no happy endings in war, i guess...
It is really inspiering album, like all of theirs.
My favorite album, though, is the previous one - "Death came trough a phanto ship" wich tells the legent of the Flying duchman, and capitein Van Der Dekken. "Departure..." is an awesome song [link] my fave of theirs for sure. (from 4:52 is what my phone rigins with
I like this album more than the new, simply because i like pirate stories a lot, and itwas the firs carach Angren album i heard. But all of their albums are insane! Or as we say in Bulgaria Нямят Лабаво
So on the drawing. I HATE HIS HAIR SO MUCH! Something happened to me and i cannot draw hair all of a sudden... I wanted to make one normal looking guy into this creepy character, so i hope the stock artist will not mind, that it looks a little like his model. The violinist is actually the good guy. Really!
I wrote a lot this time, didn't I
--------------
The quote is lyris by Carach Angren, this it is a tribute to them. Again, check this band damn it! Unless you are a fucking Chalga fan... then.. you can skip them.

Will you do representations for Bitte Totet Mich, General Nightmare and These Fields Are Lurking too? Amazing violinist, by the way! His face kind of reminds me of my friend who got me into Carach Angren! XD

Great that you took the time to do a picture for this song! It's probably my favorite off the new CA album (next to "Bitte Tötet Mich"), even though I can't really say I have a favorite, these guys don't make a song that isn't made of sheer brilliance...
"Funerary Dirge" is actually so amazing, it makes me cry! Now that's art!!
I like the blood on the violin/bow, could be both real and symbolic. The dark atmosphere is well done, suits the song perfectly (esp that particular part).
CA needs more visual fanart!! I'd love to see something for DCTAPS, I freaking love that album... (esp "Bloodstains on the captain's log")

Hahah I had an idea for that song exactly, with Van Der Dekken and Katerina, but i still lack the skill to execute it.
Thank you for the comment. <3
Carach angren are a great band, they don't have a weak album for now. I wait their albums, like i wait for good movie to come out
And other than that they seem to be verry cool people. They actually commented this drawing in my FB, wich i would say made my day, but it actually made my whole week
They are amazing.

Yeah I knooow I'm kind of addicted to them lately, I listen to a lot of (different) music (but esp metal and film scores/classical) and I swear there's nothing better than CA!! Everything is just amazing, music, lyrics, visuals, and esp their live performances.... Seregor is a f***ing BEAST!!!! I had the pleasure of seeing them live in September and I was absolutely bewitched!! I didn't even bother headbanging and stuff because I was so mezmerised by Seregor's "acting", he's a real eye magnet! Compared to CA, Vreid and Mistur were pretty boring live acts (even though their music is good and they're nice guys). CA are just sooo energetic and it's obvious that they put a lot of work and thought into their work.
Even got to talk to Ardek and Seregor briefly (Namtar was busy drinking beer and chatting with some other guys, haha!), but they were really tired (esp Seregor) so I didn't stick around too long! I asked Seregor if he ever considered being an actor, because he is naturally so expressive that I think he would be good at that! And he said he actually thought about it, but he doesn't know whether he's good enough... and I told him he definitely is, he has that "certain something"!!! )
yeah really cool guys, I love how involved they are with their fans on FB etc. Ardek is a genius composer, I swear he could be the next Danny Elfman or something, he needs to go to Hollywood haha. Did you ever listen to his "film score" music samples? They're excellent! He's so versatile and can not only do "dark" and "dramatic" stuff (which he does best though :-D) but also really cute music... like for the "Firefly and the Coffee machine" short animation film, the music is soo enchanting!
Haha I can't enthuse about these guys enough. I also think they're pretty good looking, with or without corpsepaint, haha! By the way, they also have the best corpsepaint. Sooo sophisticated and detailed. Have you ever seen the masks Seregor makes? Not just the black and white ones, but his whole wall at home is basically full of a freaky creepy self-made mask collection (see his FB page). I'm sure he's good at painting too! Unfortunately I don't have that much time to draw/paint nowadays, but I have a sense for colors and shapes so I really appreciate CA's visual artistry.
Wow, that's awesome that they commented on your picture! I can imagine it made your week :-D
I sooo hope they become bigger and biggger and can tour more. I wish I lived in the Netherlands, then I could go to see them in Eindhoven next week with the violinist Nikos Mavridis.. well I hope at least someone makes good photos and videos!!

Oh, I have never seen live of theis... I hope they will come to Bulgaria, but chancess for that to happen are "Only in a few paralel universes in wich i am an unicorn and i shit rainbls" Yeah, it is just that inpossible I still have the hope to see them one day
And live videos, don't really have the best quolity. I would love it if they make DVD at least. So i cannot tell how they are live. I have seen, though, one cool vide of "phobic shadows and moonlit meadows" and I can say, that Seregor knows how to tell a story.
And the best part is, that they are young, and they will probably get even better with time.
I cannot say much about music, cause i don't know how music is made. I can only say i fucking like it! A lot!
But i must be honest - Lyrics are my favorite.
Ony in this albumn i can start with like 20 favorite quotes. (Not to mation the other albums)
"They don’t understand the language of music cannot be spoken in death." - That for instance is so awesome, it can be used in anti war campaigns! "It plays the music of the dead, music made of lead" - Amazing too. And i will go on, becaus i like doing this
"His soul torn asunder by the horrors of war.
One carrying so much death will soon care for life no more."
"Here I walk down this godless trench where the corpses sink forever into shallow marshy grounds. "
"From this forsaken battlefield no soul can be dismissed."
" Just a little piece of me! Come to daddy! He must eat" - Crrreeepyyy
"Thirteen days starving to death since they bombed this place. All the roads blocked the forest stocked full of mines. No there is no escape!" - I like this one, because it is so short, but you can imagine it in the second, especially with the music and vokals. I cannot write like that,and i respect everyone who can. Short, but comnplete! in DCTAFS you can see that all the time. The end of the "Departure.." for instance, the last part is amazing like lyrics and like a moment.
And another example for that:
"Father resisted and for that he was taken upstairs after his boy.
With his hands tied to his back and another rope around his neck,
they made him stand upon the shoulders of his own dear son.
Unfortunately the child could not hold his daddy that long." Plus it is fucking creepy aswell.
Maybe i better stop now. :/ I can do that all night.
I've seen good lyrics before, it is true. If you ever seen Borgir's "The promised future Aeons" for instance. Or Cradle of filth lyrics (Well most of them) And Clawfinger have really cool lyrics, in a weird rap style but still. Sabaon also tell stories in a way, and have some awesome lyrics. There is more others, ok, i will never deny that.
But the way Carach Angren tell a story with music is like nothing i've seen before.
The way "Where the corpses sink forever" ended, was.. WTF?!?! It all made sense in the end. And i was like... Dude... that's INSANE!
I will not even start with the pirate story, and the ghost tale
Idk, if Seregor should be an actor or not, but him and his bnd can make one hell of a movie
And other than that the songs have amazing moments. i love that "COLD AND DEAD!" In Little Hector or the moment in Bitte totet mich, when the solgier is trying to hang himsels in the farm. The violin of the Violinyst, and what came after, the fast moment in the end. And this:
"There he lies; haunted, hunted, beaten, tortured, hanged and eaten."
Fuck i can really talk about them all night
Excuse my english

Haha yeah I agree, it would be a dream come true if CA make a movie out of their albums! :-D
Yes the lyrics are great. They look pretty simple at first glance but actually they're really clever. I study literature so I dare say I know something about well-written stuff
The outro of "These Fields are Lurking" gives me goosebumps every time! Genius!
My other favorite part is also the one with the farmer in Bitte Tötet Mich, it's sooo sad and epic!!! Seregor narrates the stories so perfectly, it's like an audiobook.

Dude... They should tataly make one audio book. I will by that no matter if i don't really have where to play it.
I've seen one short video reprort of theirs, where he is making like 3-4 voices. While recording Little Hector i think. It was a funny moment

Gah, I love that album (well, actually I love all their albums ... ^^) ... been planning on doing a piece for this song myself, but I never actually seem to get around to it -.-
The song is completely awesome (although my personal favorite is Spectral Infantry Battalions, even though it's much too short .... ), and your work fits pretty well ^^
