An Avalanche Life (remastered)

Ambient post-metal led by Swedish nyckelharpa, felt piano, delayed clean-electric guitar hook, bowed strings, shifting 808 sub, distorted bass, low-tuned guitars and granular wind haze; weightless passages erupt into explosive half-time, Deep smoky, gravel-edged male baritone with clipped phrasing, doubled hooks and stacked chorus harmonies, Selective slapback echoes, deep three-dimensional space

What is it when the world is spinning And you're standing, Not moving How am I getting through The only life I knew? Boulders crashing, Falling in the snow. An avalanche life, It's all I've known. Struggling through the cold, Blizzards freezing up my throat No help! Never knowing which way to go, Then summer comes and goes. It starts all over again… An avalanche life, Tumbling… No brakes, No flashing lights. Oh, hell… The circle of weather Keeps coming around. No ropes to hold No safety lines. Life seemed sheltered When I was younger. But now it's pushing back harder Building its blister Making my skin thinner open sores I tried to hide Summer doesn't save. It only interrupts the winter. An avalanche life Hanging icicles On everything I hold. Every time I step onto the ice I lose control Sugar snow Swallowing me whole That thumpin' deep… Isn’t the avalanche, It's my heartbeat, Below the freeze As I’m sliding turbulently Down the mountainside Summer doesn't save. It only interrupts the winter! An avalanche life… An avalanche life… It's all I've known Mmm…
