Belgiens Death metal Haufen CARNATION hat den Visualizer für nächsten Track vom „Cursed Mortality“ Langeisen hochgeladen. Der an den Filmklassiker erinnernde Song `Metropolis` folgt auf `Replicant‘,  zu dem die Fünf ein Video produziert hatten.

Frontman Simon Duson kommentiert den neuen Song:

„We are thrilled to finally unveil ‚Metropolis‘. Inspired by Fritz Lang’s 1927 film, our song delves deep into the shadows lurking behind the facade of progress and opulence. ‚Metropolis‘ reveals the corruption and filth concealed beneath the glitter and glamour of our world, echoing the dark undertones of our civilization’s relentless advancement. It’s a haunting reminder that often, what lies beneath the surface is far more enigmatic than meets the eye. ”

Lyrics:

 

Oh, Metropolis, shine your light on me

 

Like a diamond pressured to perfection

Within your reach, all fall to your seduction

Magnificent

City of promise

 

Hidden beneath these concrete castles

Living below their spires of gold

A foundation made of iron and blood

 

In the deepest darkest trenches

You will find the secrets of this exalted kingdom

Labyrinth of machinery

Claiming countless victims, underneath the…

 

Metropolis, the pinnacle of modern advancement

Metropolis, a lasting symbol of brutal enslavement

 

We are divided by prosperity

Within this structure of grandiosity

Never to receive equality

You will die in darkness, forfeit your life for progress

 

Metropolis, the pinnacle of modern advancement

Metropolis, a lasting symbol of brutal enslavement

 

Everlasting

All-consuming

Metropolis
