Andalusian post rockish screamo / post hardcore virtuosi VIVA BELGRADO are back with a new impressive tune called “Epílogo: la Cima”! Recorded and mixed by Santi García at Ultramarinos Costa Brava in Spring 2017, and mastered by Víctor García at Ultramarinos Mastering, the track overwhelms with its ability to put loads of emotions into words and elevated, intense sonic delivery, and removes any doubt about their status in the European music scene. Listen below!
Lyrics:
¿Cómo ser honesto sin ser contradictorio
Si a estas alturas aún no soy aún capaz de distinguir
Si escribo solo por los testigos o por mí?
Aunque puedo admitir que últimamente bebo más que nunca
Que estoy abusando de sustancias
Tocando fondo aunque parezca que he vencidoEsta es la nueva cruz
La de encontrar algo verdadero
Algo permanente a lo que agarrarme
Hasta que llegue otra canción que me salve
Porque siempre llega, siempre llega
Soy transparente, soy transparente
Hoy el pasado pesa un poco más
Es el prisma de la madurez que cubre mis ojosPor muy obvio que parezca
Me ha tomado tiempo darme cuenta de que
Si la cima es una zanahoria
Será mejor centrarse en buscar algunos momentos
De los que solo apreciamos desde el retrovisor
(English) Epilogue: the Peak
How can I be honest without being contradictory
If at this stage I’m still not able to distinguish
If I write for the witnesses or for me?
I can admit I’ve been drinking too much lately tho
Abusing substances
Hitting bottom tho it looks as I’ve wonThis is the new cross:
To find something true
Something permanent to grip to
Until a new song saves me
Because it always does
I am transparent, I am transparent
Today the past weights a bit more
It’s maturity’s prism covering my eyesAs obvious as it may seem
It has taken me a while to realise that
If the peak is a carrot
It’d be better to focus on collecting some of those moments
We only appreciate through the rearview mirror
