In the dark you don't see anybody In the dark it will follow your trail In the light of the moon A pair of eyes on you You should have known to not run here for cover You should have known to not run here for cover Beaten and bruised, is this your free will? Beaten and bruised, you are standing so still. Gather the strength you will need for this one, stand still and let it come. In the dark you don't see anybody In the dark it will follow your trail In the light of the moon A pair of eyes on you You should have known to not run here for cover You should have known to not run here for cover

As we both walk, towards the fog, what is there to expect, nothing can hold us back I feel your mood, in a world of pain, Come take my hand, do you feel the same Is this all you needed? Is this all you had? The times are rough, what we need is Kraft, Now we stand together, for worse or better I feel your mood, in a world of pain, Come take my hand, do you feel the same Is this all you needed? Is this all you had? I feel your mood, in a world of pain, Come take my hand, do you feel the same …

Calling your name in the dark, you're near. Calling my name, calling my name. Calling your name in the dark, you're near. Calling my name, calling my name. Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Mysterious feelings that keep me believing that you are the one, Mysterious feelings that keep me believing that I need to hold on... Calling your name in the dark, you're near. Calling my name, calling my name. Calling your name in the dark, you're near. Calling my name, calling my name. I give up on you, you give up on me, our paths devide In a different realm, hidden from now, this bond is still alive Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go, and then you went away, and then you went away Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears before you go, and then you went away, and then you went away Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears Hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears, hundreds of tears Mysterious feelings that keep me believing that you are the one, Mysterious feelings that keep me believing that I need to hold on...

Come down, to see the light Come down, to see the light You will fall You will fall Running for miles through the frost Grieving for all that is lost The endless horizon you fear Help is nowhere near. Everything's taken away What is left to stay? What is left to stay? Come down, to see the light Come down, to see the light You will fall You will fall Where does all the hope go, when there's nothing it can cling to? All the wishing all the longing, lead to nothing. All the wishing all the longing, lead to nothing, lead to nothing Running for miles through the frost Grieving for all that is lost The endless horizon you fear Help is nowhere near. Grieving for all that is lost, until the end of the frost, until the end of the frost...

All the dust that's in the air All the dust that's in the air settles down and goes nowhere All the dust that's in the air You hold the dagger above my head Our eyes lock and you ask me to take care Remember your mission you plead, and I finally see, another chance at this, to just be me. All the dust that's in the air All the dust that's in the air settles down and goes nowhere All the dust that's in the air You hold the dagger above my head Our eyes lock and you ask me to take care Remember your mission you plead, and I finally see, another chance at this, to just be me.

I, I see you at the station, you, you dont know me I, I’m your silent friend, I’m your silent friend Soon enough you will know me, you will remember my face, like a long forgotten dream You can’t hear me, but you feel me, because I’m your silent friend Flying through your memories, your past so far away, still these times and things will change Who and what will remain, I won’t go away, I’m your silent friend You, you will be strong, you, you will hold on to love I, I, I never want to fail you, I, I, I see you in my dreams I, I’m your silent friend, I’m your silent friend

about

With three albums under their belt, THE MOTH are no newbies and have honed their no-nonsense approach to SludgeMetalDoom on numerous tours and gigs. Their songs are virtually void of frills, instead opting to turn out hammer heavy drums and riff ready rock ’n’ roll – as brutal as it is bewitching. Since their acclaimed debut They Fall in 2013, the Hamburg heavy trio THE MOTH have regularly delivered tracks with a catchiness that is surprising for the genre. Kim Wilde meets Bolt Thrower, they call it themselves, or like a review for the last album Hysteria (2017) did put it: “pop music played with a bulldozer”. How appropriate! THE MOTH are now taking this approach to new heights with their upcoming album. Frost is set to be released on Exile On Mainstream on 22 September 2023. Catchy hooklines get stuck in the listener’s heart and mind like a dislodged meat hook, explaining why the band calls their style doom-sludge pop. That’s it. Simple as that, yet nailing the sound. Lyrically, however, THE MOTH show a new openness and vulnerability under the shell of raw power that the songs initially present. Experiencing and living through strokes of fate runs through the record as a recurring theme – all under a rough shell of distinctive and deliberately raw sound. Cécile (vocals/bass), Freden (guitar/vocals) and Curry (drums) perform the dichotomy with a high recognition value. Boring riff hum and mantric stoner-esk repetition are not their thing. Anyone who experiences THE MOTH live will automatically find themselves in front of the stage with a biting head nod, a thirst for beer and a fist clenched at hip height.

Frost was recorded live in only 24 hours, recorded and mixed by Jose Lorenzo, at Bombrec Recording. Mastered by Timo Höcke, at Die Wellenschmiede. After three albums on the fantastic This Charming Man label, THE MOTH now present their label debut on Exile On Mainstream with Frost.
