Urutau's Last Chant 04:12
lyrics
buy track
I can't find another place Days keep growing far from home (owoow) And I can't move in a new way Stone cold stucked on my bones Need a weather changing heart Please remember, I've got strained (owoow) Got a damage on my brain Call me before if you can Cause I can't see to find my place Did I ever find my own heart? In my mind i feel, I can change But these eyes can't see this far Cause in my soul I can leave it all behind And in my soul I can make it on my own Cause in my soul I can leave it all behind And in my soul I should stand it on my own I should have your faith So you could lead my heart (heart and soul, flesh and bones, my only hope) You can easy my way So I could bleed my mind (mind and storm, sins and sums, eyes and touch) Cause in my soul I can leave it all behind And in my soul I can make it on my own Cause in my soul I can wash away my pride So in my soul I could find my new way home

Black Steel Moon 03:25
lyrics

Say I'm wrong Hold me down But please don't call me back for more Cause I can't play And you can't choose Lying dormant on this ground We've never crossed this road before You would never learn to get away I can't behave this way anymore... And I don't care for you to stay... Stay home Stormy eyes paint black the walls I've seen my life slip behind those doors So bring me back My black steel moon Cause I can't fake this getaway I've seen you bend And I've mended these shoes So please don't lurk here back for more

Teenage Skincare 04:26
lyrics
buy track
Can't you see All this time I was trying to let it go See no magic in my eyes (can't erase it, my mind flows...) Speed, run faster than you can Find your way and reach me out Teenage scars bleeds never ends And all this time I was trying to succeed For all this time Please forgive me And on this side I was trying to stay alive I plead, don't mind Just let me in (no gaps between icy silences) I feel strange, over my head I hear your voice I feel strange, over my head I might be dead For all my life I've been down Dragging through this emptiness Seems modern times bliss never lasts (no gaps between icy silences) Spin, spare, hold it if you can Small talk mind way to belong Taking risks to last forever And all this time I was trying to succeed For all this time Please forgive me And on this side I was trying to stay alive I plead, don't mind Just let me in... In your heart "... I really felt lonelier before, but now I'm someone else. It's very good! An all time partner. Not just some fair weather friends... It's great to disconnect from the world. Everything is terrible nowadays, isn't it?! ..."

Remember 02:49
lyrics

Remember staying awake? Remember all night long? Remember fear no pain? Where did it all go wrong? Remember serenade? Remember power chords? Remember fuzz and playing? It doesn't matter, we don't belong It doesn't matter, we don't belong Remember feel no shame? Remember true paved hearts? Remember feeling ageless? When did it all go wrong? Remember walk talk late? Remember all true signs? Remember no silences? It doesn't matter, we don't belong Maybe we're all mistaken... It doesn't matter, we don't belong Maybe we're all mistaken... It doesn't matter, we don't belong Maybe we're all mistaken... It doesn't matter, we don't belong Maybe we're all mistaken

Life's Stumbles 03:30
lyrics

Anytime I hear your voice I scream All the sins I've locked inside my head In my mouth I sip the words and fear Drying out my flesh and body instead Only you can give my heart a beat Understand, I've lost my shoes and walked (on my own) And I wish you could save my life again (I beg) And I know we can share this light, my friend (I swear, till the end) Hurry up, I've got my mind and set All the dreams that lead me straight ahead Everything you gave me through these years Moving on, I'm leaving out a mess In this ride I've stumbled on my feet You could take my hand and get me going (and we go) And I wish you could save my life again (I beg) 'cause I know we can share this light, my friend (I swear) This time we can start away from here (now) 'cause I know we could share our lives again (till the end)

Still JOMO 03:34
lyrics
buy track
I can't look at you 'cause you saw me standing there Choking in my own arms So we can stop for now... On shaking our nasty bodies Just by your sunshine But you saw me there And I can't let it go... You keep your empty diaries by the stairs And you move me slow like honey to try on (so slooow) Spring's gonna take us by it hands To fill with trust and comfort our blank pages to ride on You look like quicksand All spreaded over my bed I've got to recoil now Splinter eyes instead... A still joy of missing out Snake charm in your head Better be dead by now... But you've been forsaken You keep your empty diaries by the stairs And you move me slow like honey to try on (so slooow) Spring's gonna take us by it hands To fill with trust and comfort our blank pages to ride on You keep your empty diaries by the stairs And you move me slow like honey to try on (so slooow) Winter's gonna take us by it hands To crush with hurt and fear our blank pages to ride on and on

Your Storm 02:57
lyrics
buy track
If I were so brave How could you hurt me so? And if you were lost How did you find me in here? Things never changed And time can still come in waves But you can be sure Broken heart yet can hit so hard I've never complained Eyelids and mouth to pray Running till shore Driving in fuzz through your storm In heaven or hell Whatever, I'll go

Deaf Heaven (Haunted) 05:05
lyrics
buy track
Sailing by the river I see you vanishing on display And every piece you leave Just keep on fading from my hands Waving by the sea I hear you walking on my head Whispering the secrets I still hold on in my breath I'm just walking on The feelings from my head I'm just walking on And feeling my own breath I'm just walking on my own I'm just walking on "Positive feedback creates a true connection of ego and alterego, making the user overcome the need for attention ..." I got to stay out of these roads (start running my own road) And play together within my ghosts (life is coming on) Now it's time to face my fears (time to slow down on my speed) A chance for spending time with me Flying by the ocean I feel you crawling by the stairs Wandering in circles All the demons from my past Back into my dreaming All the nightmares open doors Wish you could deceive it And lay me in order to restore I'm just walking on The feelings from my head I'm just walking on And feeling my own breath I'm just walking on my own I'm just walking on Sailing by the river I see you vanishing on display And every piece you leave Just keep on fading from my head

about

Lonely Me = Val Waxman
AKA The gutter songs

Urutau's last chant for thy black steel moon
Like teenage skincare to remember life's stumbles
A still joy of missing out, inside your storm
Chapter III, Deaf heaven (Haunted)

"...The music is a unique blend of fuzzy, noisy bedroom lo-fi rock with hints of shoegaze and jangly sounds in the background, hailing from the vibrant city of Rio De Janeiro. The songs are full of raw energy that is dominated by the guitar, creating a distinctive and captivating atmosphere. Overall, this album offers a refreshing glimpse into the undiscovered music scene of Brazil..." - Filip Zemčík

Release:

Mixado e gravado sozinho por Val Waxman entre o final de 2018 e ao decorrer de 2019, "No Gaps Btwn Icy Slncs" foi engavetado devido à pandemia, dando lugar a "Quarantine Broken Ballads" e depois "Enemy Sleep". Um disco melancólico, lo-fi, que agora faz sentido depois de tantas turbulências e a necessidade de álbuns urgentes, crus e diretos como os próprios Quarantine e Enemy Sleep.

A mudança cronológica de álbuns, mesmo que não intencional, ganhou um belíssimo novo significado, como em "Teenage Skincare"; "I was trying To stay alive, I plead, don't mind, Just Let Me In, No Gaps Between icy silences". E também a faixa "Remember" e "Life's Stumbles" - uma de minhas faixas preferidas, cheias de efeitos e feedbacks caminhando ali pelo Sonic Youth e se encerrando de forma melancólica com um piano, imprimindo o constante sentimento que párea o álbum.

Mais um grande trabalho de Val, que mesmo engavetado, ganhou a luz da vida na hora certa e nos desperta a curiosidade sobre o que virá no futuro depois de um passado não tão distante, mas muito conturbado. Como é dito na própria "Your Storm": ...and time can still come in waves.

Diego Carteiro, 25/03/2024.
