Description:
A dark union of the creepy spoken word Poe piece by Rebsie and William and a Halloween dirge I posted a while back. Glad that Rebsie allowed collaboration on this one because her reading made me feel dark and clammy.

Lyrics:
SPIRITS OF THE DEAD

by Edgar Allan Poe
(1827)

Thy soul shall find itself alone
'Mid dark thoughts of the grey tomb-stone;
Not one, of all the crowd, to pry
Into thine hour of secrecy.

Be silent in that solitude,
Which is not loneliness- for then
The spirits of the dead, who stood
In life before thee, are again
In death around thee, and their will
Shall overshadow thee; be still.

The night, though clear, shall frown,
And the stars shall not look down
From their high thrones in the Heaven
With light like hope to mortals given,
But their red orbs, without beam,
To thy weariness shall seem
As a burning and a fever
Which would cling to thee for ever.

Now are thoughts thou shalt not banish,
Now are visions ne'er to vanish;
From thy spirit shall they pass
No more, like dew-drop from the grass.

The breeze, the breath of God, is still,
And the mist upon the hill
Shadowy, shadowy, yet unbroken,
Is a symbol and a token.
How it hangs upon the trees,
A mystery of mysteries!

This song is creepy in a good chillout way. I like the lyrics are powerful as well.
Good fillers too!

a dark bang for your buck.. &mdash 10/31/05 - 08:13:35 PM
6 minutes! of underworldly terror. the subdued quality totally puts the
mood on this. major nods for production-especially the devilishly low
bassline. you've got this genre nailed. DL'd

take on Rebsie's performance. I'm not sure any husband should
hear his wife like this, but maybe that's just me. If she starts
projectile vomiting, turning her head 360 degrees or swearing
profusely (even more than normal!) then I'll know who to blame.
