Xymox

Clan of xymox, este grupo de holandeses tiene un estilo un poco particular, despistando en cuanto a sus raices, no termina definiendo un estilo concreto en sus producciones, te puedes encontrar una con referentes oscuros (dark), hasta incluso rock-gótico, electro, synth-pop....no tengo muy claro si tuviera que definirles con un estilo, pero si tuviera que hablar de su música... simplemente diria que es un grupo con un buen chorro de temazos, con ese sonido electrónico newwave-minimal que tanto caracteriza el sonido ochentero de las bandas de su "género"....

(cómo sonaba este day en Central y Manamana...pelos de punta...)

Obsession

We sit in your room
So dark and strange
With yellow candles
burning straight
Outside it rains
So silver and bright
A glaring light
Crashed into the sky
It's just the way it should be
It's so right as rain
We stayed awake at night
With visions so unreal
We stayed awake at night
With visions so ideal
It's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on me
Smiles and voices suddenly changed
Eyes and shadows on a
distance too short
Is there someone who I know?
Is there someone at all?
Is there someone who I know?
Is there someone I called?
So when the rain comes
running in your eyes
And the wind shakes
the forest leaves
We stayed awake at night
With visions so unreal
We stayed awake at night
With visions so ideal
It's got a hold on me
