Sun Through Eyelids Where do I start with a review of yet another chapter in the somber creations of the count?
This album is very interesting... I struggle to find words. It is like you're under an ice sheet while the world is above you and the apocalypse is coming. Sheer panic and terror is muffled above the sheet. There is a sense of beauty here though.. you start to notice many other people are down here. Many spirits linger here, just like you.. while this music plays softly in the distance underwater. Favorite track: An Unexpect'd Brought Forth Iseslip Led Me to the Port that 'Vould Arise My Elect'd Ship.

about

After numerous years of preperation and brewing we have finally arrived at announcing to you all our latest x-ist: A Bleeding Star

Ambient Noise IDM in the likes of our Monade, Kshhhk or Sluggart.

Trying to describe him any further would only come short so we thought it would be a nice idea to let the man speak for himself and his journey we hereby release: 

Basically After Returnin' from An Incredibly Refreshin' 'Lil Vacation By the Lake...'Bout {II} Hours Away from 'Vhere I Currently Reside... I Had Found Myself Vividly Retellin' A Special {Astral-Travel} that Had Led Me to {II} Quite Particular Locations... Now Do Know Beforehand that Such A Realm Does Not Consider the Laws of [Physics] As 'Vell As Many Others Factors Present In Its Presence... Hence Makin' It Evermore An Excitin' Adventure 
Awaitin' Every Time I Venture Within It... Since 'tis 'Vhere I Actually Come from... My Home 


Ch. I ~ A Delightful Wake & Bake Near the Sea... Unbounded By Bountiful Crisp Air & My Coffee 

'O' Yes... Now that's the Feelin' of {GOOOD MO(U)RNIN'}... {HA}... Can't Make It More Crystal Clear for Any Soul Ready to Follow Me As I Retale this Tale... from the Lake Itself... I'm Now By the Shore... Near the Ocean... With My Strong Drink {&} the Swirl of Auric Visions Comin' from My Mind ... Foghorns... Shiphorns... A Useful Synapse...'Got those {Smokeclouds} Makin' Me As Calm As 'tis Possible...though Now there's this Quite 
Evercirciclin' Melody that I Can't Shake-Hold... Better Go In the Cabin... Key In those Notes 


Ch. II ~ Ah Mais Oui... La Voil‡... Ah Qu'Elle Est Belle Celle L‡ (Aesoteric Melodia De Astraloceana) 

Without Wastin' Breath... I 'Vas Already Furiously Makin' Sure Not to Forgo On Leavin' Such A 'Vonderfully Rich Composition Be Forgotten As Quickly As It Had Been Resurfacin' In My Head...Maudit...Such An Action 'Vould Be Nonsense to A High Degree....'O' No... I Play'd that Piece... Over {&} Over...'til I 'Vas Completely Satisfy'd With Its Emotional Drive... {&} ...'O'...It Drove Me Alright... Just Not 'Vhere I Expect'd... In fact... I'd Say I 'Vas More {Ship'd} then Anythin' Else... Hilarious Since I Am Its Captain | That Said... With Much Anticipation I Search'd for the Port 'Vhere {Astraloceana} Sleeps Undeneath Its Depths | Now... How Exactly Am I Goin' to Even Find It Without Critical Intent? | I Mean... I Don't Even Have A Concrete [Destination] 
At Hand Yet... Daaamn... then Again... I'm Here... No Red Robes... No Violence... Fuck Stress 


Ch. III ~ An Unexpect'd Brought Forth Iseslip Led Me to the Port that 'Vould Arise My Elect'd Ship 

~ As An Unnanouced Flutter of Possible [Locations] Came Swarmin' In... It Dawn'd On Me... If I Did Hear Such A Beautiful Melody Echoin' Deeply through My Ears... then the Chances of Findin' the Correct Port Couldn't Be So Difficult... {&}... Just As I Kept Goin' Strong... Guided Only By My Senses {&} Intuition...I Did Find 'Vhat I 'Vas Lookin' for...In Fact... I Could Pretty Much Hear Its Undeniably Authentic [Ghostshipsong] Underneath... Far from those Whom 'Vould Dare try 'Steal Such A Personal TrÈsor that Belong'd to Me 


Ch. IV ~ Melancholic to Say the Least... for Such A Brave Journey Courses through Many A Memory 

Now this Is Somethin' that I Find Irrevocably Interestin'...It Has Never Occur'd to Me to Be Awaken In the {Astral} In this Kind of Condition... I Mean... I Sincerely Don't Even Recall On [Invokin'} My Ghostship {Astraloceana} from Its Slumberin' Habitat... So How the Bloody Hell Am I In My Room In the Basement of the Ship... Not Even Havin' to Guide towards Its Own F'n Destination...'Vhat the Fuck Is Goin' On... Let's Check those Facts...{&}... Furthermore...'Vhy Do I Have the Odd Feelin' I'm Not Alone this Time Around... Like there's A Familiar Female Ghost that Hasn't Yet Made Herself Shown...Seriously though...'Vhere Am I Goin' Exavtly... Hmm? | Already Soundin' Crazy... Great... Not Much's Different than My Last {Soultravelin'} Journey 
... {HA} ...Still No [Black Boxes] At Least...Hmm...Should I Go Find Her? / Reason Being Here? | 
There's Easily A Detection of [Sadness] Present...'Bit Mix'd With A SoupÁon of Fear I Believe... Hmmm... 'Vell Sure I'm Feelin' [Melancholic] As Can Bloody Be...How Could I Not? | Knot'd to A Certain Level to An Unknown... No Given Warnin'... Only Outcome Is of Importance... Yes... Sure... But Her... Hmm...'O' Yes... there's Definitely Somethin' Emotionally Heavy to Consider | [Coldfire] 


Ch. V ~ As the Ship Arrived to Its Chosen Location... I Found Myself Connect'd By Vivid Clarification 

Japan? | Seriously... I'm In Fuckin' [Japan]... Really? | 'O' No... Don't Tell Me... Ok... I Know Exactly 'Vhere Were Goin' Now... Better Get Goin' If We Want to Get there... Since I'm Sure 'tis Not the Correct Moment to Confront Her About 'Vhy We Were Led Here... I'm Just Goin' to Let It Slide... As We/I Begin Our Trek though [Mount Fuji's] 'Northwest... I Have to Say... this Shall Be A Rivetin' Adventure As A {Sombre Creation}... Just 'Long As I Don't Forget 'Vhat's Bound to Happen... 'O' My... I Can Just Imagine those Mortals Standin' Around 'Vhen We Show Up there In the [Spirit-Realm]... Might Give A Few Some Scares Since they're there 

{HA} | {WICKED} 


Ch. VI ~ Shikeys: Let Us Study Dark Japanese Mythology... Come With Me to the Black Sea of Trees 

'Vell...'tis Been A Long Time Comin'... Didn't think I'd Actually Be Led Here though... that I'll Admit... Considerin' All the Nights I've Purposely Did My {BEST} At {Astral-Travelin'} there In Specific... Yet... Still Havin' Not Havin' Enough of A Duration In this Particularely 
Potent [Location]... {HA}...'Vell Isn't that Fuckin' [Ironic]... Ok... Let's Get this Start'd... Off We/I .,.Fuck It...Here We Go....Lightnin' Speed though the Thick Forest of Trees... Never I Seen So Many Spirits Lingerin'... All Kinds...'tis Fuckin' Wild...'Vait A Second... We Need to Make A Serious Sharp Right In About {IX} Seconds... / ... (WHOOOSH)... Fuckin' {NIIICE}... Great... Must Be Close... She's Slowin' Pace At A Rather Quick Rate... {&}... there We Have It... Seems Like She's Found [Her] Grave... I Bet In Her Forestal Corner... Lies Family Members... Perhaps Even A Lover... there's No Denyin' that She's Crucially Drawn to this Part of 'Trees 


Ch. VII ~ Further Down We Go Into the Heart Grown Old of A Forest that Swallows Mortal Souls Whole 

'Vell... Maudit... I Sure feel Like this Has Been Quite the Success In the End... Now to Make My Way Back | As I Prepare to End Such A Sentence... I Sense the [Lady-Spirit] In Question takin' My Hand... Askin' Me to Follow Her... Everdeeper... to Show Me the Secrets that Are Overturn'd Beneath Its Origin... this Tree... Yes... I Can See It Now... there's A Hidden Passage Within It... Isn't It? | Noddin' Back Humbly [Yes]... We Progress'd... Clearin' the Path to 'Vhere She Desired So to Show Me Bold... I Feel Strange... thy Hold On My Arms Is Makin' Weightless... those Sounds... they Sound So Old... I Can Hear Voices... they Sound Peaceful... At Rest... Did We Get Inside Yet? | Did I Follow thee Thrill'd Like 'Vhen Ye told Me? | 'O' My Head... those Circles Instead... Globes... Nests... Colors... those Swirls... Everythin' Gettin' Dimmer {&} Dimmer... Heavier {&} Heavier...'O'... Ye're 'Velcome... 'tis Part of My {Selfvow} Actually... Alas... that's A Much... Can't Speak... I Can Barely... I... Should I? | Did I Repair Wracks? | Yes... Hmm... Perhaps... Loss of Speech... (Flip the {XIII} Tracks}
