"Alone" is a poem by Edgar Allan Poe (read by Tom O'Bedlam) from childhoodís hour I have not been as others were I have not seen as others saw I could not bring my passions from a common spring from the same source I have not taken my sorrow I could not awaken my heart to joy at the same tone and all I lovíd I lovíd alone then in my childhood in the dawn of a most stormy life was drawn from evíry depth of good and ill the mystery which binds me still from the torrent, or the fountain from the red cliff of the mountain from the sun that íround me rollíd in its autumn tint of gold from the lightning in the sky as it passíd me flying by from the thunder, and the storm and the cloud that took the form (when the rest of Heaven was blue) of a demon in my view

try another last time tell me I should stay dirty mothafucker you won't win again what I might wish to you I can even tell regain your deeper nightmare you should pray for that 'cause ready? here I am with all my hate that is son of the disgrace you have taken all over the place ready? here I am to break your chains blood freezing into your veins like it was an old refrain someone has to pay for the damage done and I think it's you you the only one c'mon waste your last words there's nothing you can tell not a word or a crying prayer to save your fucking head 'cause ready? here I am with all my hate that is son of the disgrace you have taken all over the place ready? here I am to break your chains blood freezing into your veins like it was an old refrain don't look so surprised ready? here i come

Let It Down 03:26
come here lonely nightmare the same feel as it seems a life time spent in darkness enough time to let me down bring me to the ocean and leave the ground hiding in the loom of night lead me where we cannot touch the ground time has come, let it down let it down farewell lowly highness the same fool as it seems a fool again we spent a life time living lifeless enough time to let me down bring me to the ocean and leave the ground rowing in the dead of night lead me where we cannot touch the ground time has come to let it down bring me to the ocean and leave the ground hiding in the gloom of night lead me where we cannot touch the ground time has come, let it down let it down

Inner Forest 04:08
feel the strain through your skin this voice calling from the blue fear those demons on your back run like hell run like hell trees on my path, the fields of my past are growing the wood to my gallows sweet evergreens lead my stride concealing my pass to those willows it's coming on the longer night a forest is not enough to hide it's been a while but we have nothing to talk about it's been so wild but we have nothing to talk about it's coming on the longer night a forest is not enough to hide
9.
Days Of Doom 05:15
walk and learn in evil days, insulted days, days of death and oppression, depression days of blue days of doom days of murder and sacrifice days of effort days of cold days of heat when murders die days of cold when you're hot (days of white when you're black) days of heat when you're cold (days of hate when you're in love) days of blue days of doom days of murder I fight best in the shade of a cloud of arrows I fight best in the shade of doom cause you fight best yes you fight best right deep in the shade of a cloud of arrows

sickened by the knell of the graveyard bell now I know exactly how's your hell keep your hands on your ears hold your breath until it comes the end there should be always an easy way out but not now not now, not here not for you, not for me when the bell's ringing that's the end singing in the dog graveyard say nothing without wasting a word they have been a thousand times and I still feel the same there should be always an easy way out but not now, not now not now, not here not you, not me when the bell's ringing that's the end singing in the dog graveyard time takes care of the wound but it can't heal this space is nothing when you are everywhere there should be always an easy way out but not now, not now

Even Dead 02:59

riding a world I can't recognize still in the crowd I am all alone tied and forced down in a flashing light nobody cares about who I am tied and locked up in a room of hell all I can think about is the next dreaming of a red liquid cloudy sky forgetting just what I think I am hooded and led to the hopeless end I realize that I'm not afraid my eyes adjust to the blinding light blade sweep away all I ever had forget what I was forget what I did it means nothing nothing that worths some time to remember I tried to change the world I failed but the world didn't change me it only.. yeah it just ended me quitted me, killed me and nothing more to come ...maybe

about

[ITA]
Con Dirty White King, il sesto album, i Captain Mantell raccontano una storia di ribellione estrema che porta ad estreme conseguenze.
Quella di una persona qualunque che prende una decisione, la porta a compimento e ne paga le conseguenze.
Una storia senza tempo e senza connotazioni geografiche, sempre valida, raccontata attraverso i pensieri e le emozioni dei suoi protagonisti
nella quale un metaforico regnante viene ucciso e il regicida viene braccato fino alla morte.
E il cerchio si chiude per ricominciare da capo senza che nulla sia cambiato... forse.

La musica che la accompagna, o meglio sovrasta, e' potente, tagliente, ossessiva e spesso tetra ma con momenti in cui sembra che l'orizzonte non sia cosÏ buio.
Suoni di sassofono e chitarra registrati con tecniche estreme, ritmiche irregolari, melodie accattivanti ma mai scontate e l'inserimento di un ricercato soundscape
proiettano l'ascoltatore all'interno di un'esperienza quasi cinematografica.
Il gioco dei riferimenti stilistici non riesce facile trattandosi di un innovativo mix di ispirazioni diverse tra loro (John Zorn, Faith No More, The Beatles, Soundgarden, King Crimson tra gli altri)
che assume le connotazioni di una colonna sonora strettamente legata agli eventi narrati nei testi.

L'oscurita' che pervade il lavoro e' ben rappresentata dal complesso artwork di Seals Of Blackening (Michele Carnielli).
Due sono le collaborazioni che vedono Francesco Chimenti alla voce e ai violoncelli su Inner Forest
e Nicola Manzan agli archi su The Invisible Wall, Livor Mortis e Let It Down.
Presente un tributo a E.A. Poe su Worst Case Scenario con l'inserimento della sua poesia Alone.
L'intero LP e' stato registrato e prodotto dagli stessi musicisti, Tommaso Mantelli e Sergio Pomante nei propri studi di registrazione.
(Groove Studio, Noise Lab e C‡ Rudere)

Captain Mantell - Dirty White King e' disponibile dal 20/03/2017
supportato da Overdrive Records, Dischi Bervisti, Cave Canem.
Ufficio stampa: dischibervisti@gmail.com

[ENG]
Dirty White King, the latest LP from Captain Mantell,
moves on a darker and powerfull direction than the previous works of the trio.
It tells the story of a symbolic king murder using new recordings techniques and a cinematographic approach which
make this album sounding like an heavy soundtrack for a obscure film.

It's not easy to find a reference because this album sounds like
a mix of different inspirations melted together in a new strange way.

The darkness of the record is well described by the complex artwork of Seals Of Blackening.
The collaborations are two: Francesco Chimenti from Sycamore Age (vocals and cellos)
and Nicola Manzan from Bologna Violenta (strings).

Captain Mantell - Dirty White King is available from 2017 March 20
powered by Overdrive Records, Dischi Bervisti, Cave Canem
