Lest we forget the forgotten victims Their yearning for freedom It roars with discontent The Gods of neglect Continues their endeavors Bearing but nothing in mind Indulging and consuming Tearing down the towers of life Draining the lake of immortality Lest we forget the forgotten victims It roars with discontent The Gods of neglect Continues their endeavors Bearing but nothing in mind Tearing down the towers of life Indulging and consuming Draining the lake of immortality The vice of egotism will surely be The end of anthropocentrism © 2017 GHOST IRIS

The question that will forever linger Is the one that I will not dare answer Am I the one to give up on Are we entwined, like the gateways That binds our affection? Our time was minute But the affection spun a lifetime Stagnant mind, stagnate Save yourself from the intrepid state Dig your way out of the madness Rebuild and start again Prepare for the undying sadness Tear it down now © 2017 GHOST IRIS

Feeling the fire Feeling the flame Endlessly searching this lonely terrain The apogee of our dreamless state Forever ensuring humanity’s fate The flower of life is in decay Foil by foil, we rejoice its fall The flower of life is wasting away Foil by foil, we embrace its call It’s the sweetest river One flowing so gracefully It makes one quiver It makes you shiver This thousand-year plight Ensuring an endless fight We amass in a safe haven One we always dreamt off It leads us to our salvation The flower of life © 2017 GHOST IRIS

Pinnacle 03:54
An apocalypse of life is setting in Thoughts start wearing thin Never giving in to certainty A pinnacle of life has been reached It’s been a gloomy saunter for years I’m longing for the fortune of life I’m inside out, hungering for more Hungry for more When all is said and done What have I become I would never know where to end this To restart my wretched self I would never know where to end this To distort my shameful path Conformity lacking entirely When all is said and done What have I become? A fraction of what once was Or something greater than life A Pinnacle of life has been reached It’s been a gloomy saunter for years I’m longing for the fortune of life I’m inside out, hungering for more © 2017 GHOST IRIS

No Way Out 03:27
Living is easy with eyes closed Indifference is the simple road Nothing’s anyone’s anything anymore A time of freedom has arrived So let’s join in harmony Everything collapses around me, And yet I find myself in a state of reverie There’s no way out of here There’s nothing left to do There’s no way that I could bear To find myself In a place of nowhere But escape appears to be an illusion Delusion, confusion, it will all erupt Nowhere to rest my weary head Unproven solution, it will all erupt in the end Everything transposes inside me And yet I find myself in a state of reverie There’s no way, no there’s no way That I can do What you wish me to © 2017 GHOST IRIS

The tale of troubled minds Confused by vivid dreams The ones that defines The ones that make me seem Distressed and hopeless Drifting through anxiety That are tunnels of visions Prophecies of spoiled memories Darkness is my mother But in light I dwell Confide in each other And time will tell Distressed and hopeless Drifting through these nightmares It manifests like entities That defines the narrow line That was once my prime Escaping stagnation Is the ultimate challenge Giving in to temptation Is my final imbalance We will confide in each other So only time will tell © 2017 GHOST IRIS
8.
Inseparable beings of affection That were never meant to be Volcanic voices of exploding light Pleads us to cease Volcanic voices, exploding lights Volcanic voices pleads us to cease The force draws us nearer Magnetically Our scars adorn the impending disaster A silhouette of past times That surely reminds me of you And then we were entangled A devotion so grand and so true But we are indifferent and deafened But we are empowered by empathy And lack of sleep The force draws us nearer Indefinitely on a tether Our scars adorn the impending disaster A unity of mourning truthfully The output of two people Can never be too peaceful The force draws us nearer Magnetically close together A silhouette that surely reminds me of you Because we were devoted to something So grand and so true So grand and so true. © 2017 GHOST IRIS

There is light on the inside A light that burns It will burn until the bitter end That light will keep on burning The fight it never ends And the light will keep me yearning. After the sun sets The world goes blank It’s in this stage I find my peace The gloom washes over me But even in peace I struggle to find my place I battle to ignite the flame When the sun rises The world is chaotic During this stage I fly away The world is blind © 2017 GHOST IRIS

Detached 05:00
Belonging was never a given Belonging seemed so dim My head was in the clouds Everyday was grim Like a shroud of doubt Descending was impossible When solitary I felt solitude Being detached Was never lonesome It made the most sense The feeling was intense This feeling was intense An immense longing For the unattainable Barely sustainable The consciousness concurs In consistent calm And continue on its callous path © 2017 GHOST IRIS

about

GHOST IRIS - the most streamed Danish metal act of 2016 and one of the rising stars in the djent and tech-metal scene is
going to release a new album in 2017. The band was only founded in 2015 but already toured Europe twice. After the release
of their debut album “Anecdotes Of Science & Soul” in 2015 (via Prime Collective), the band gained a lot of interest in the
scene and played Euroblast and UK Tech-Fest amongst others. Now Ghost Iris are back with their new album entitled “Blind
World”. Their style evolved to a more complex and funk-inspired Djent-Tech-Sound that delivers heavy riffs and equilibrated
guitar playing of Nicklas Grønlund Thomsen which perfectly interacts with a focussed songwriting and memorable melodies of
leadsinger Jesper Vicencio.
