"My skin has tightened and it's killing me". It's how one can often feel when dealing with the adversity between the need to preserve and improve the quality of life and the need to create. Those two can sometimes be in antithesis with each other, generating an inner conflict. This song feeds upon that conflict. It is the story of how striving to achieve a better life has kept alive the need to destroy it all through art. A dull and safe life will eventually feed the artistic animal just as well as a painful and filled with hardships one will. Those who have nothing left might be the winners of it all.
lyrics
Of of, ce mă doare pielea
S-a strâns şi mă stinge
Plouă cu carne
Pe drum cucoana
Fuge spre vise
În cerc
Plouă în oameni
Umbrela se-ndoaie
Sub pălărie
Tragi cu nesaţ aer în piept
Se înfoaie la oricine
Şi cu ochiu-i înţelept
Te cutremură-n privirea-i
Acordurile dulci ale sângelui ei
Te vor îneca, şi-atuunci
Îţi şopteşte numele ei
Ea nu e om
Cu mişcări de milă
Te-nveleşte
Şi-ţi şopteşte: la revedere
A masterpiece of Folk Metal. You know how I know? When I get goosebumps after listening to a album. Every song is perfection, beautifully crafted. Haunting vocals and violin, blazing guitar solos - it's all here. 10/10! SwordnBoard
NEGURA BUNGET have always been a unique and fascinating band. Epic Romanian folk black metal, shrouded in a dense atmosphere and full of dynamic, organic energy. Although I see "Om" as their unreached masterpiece and neither NEUGURA BUNGET nor Hupogrammos' Dordeduh created such incredible magic again, "Zău" is a worthy final chapet which won't disappoint any fan. Rest in peace! H.L.
Bridging Nordic black metal with traditional Celtic folk, the Idaho crushers forge heavy music with a heroic medieval spirit. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 11, 2023
A true masterpice. As a mountain guide and a mountain pasionate I must confess, this is the music that helps me connect with the beauty and the roughness of the peaks. bandcamping666
