Totem (Demo)

Jack music Life Their synths base is OMD, Their guitars hide like Cure. They sing like a Camouflage, Alphaville or an eighties band. But finally they are Totem. A good start. Favorite track: Lifelines (Demo Version).

Christian Schaefer Featured this album on the thirty seventh issue of RULE of THREE (bit.ly/RULEofTHREEbc). A night in reverse by Totem has all the hallmarks of a great postpunk/darkwave track. The vocals and motifs are beautifully reminiscent of early John Foxx and the track has a strong driving feel. The drums provide a solid base that is lifted by the swirling synths and industrial-esque samples. Very nice work indeed. Favorite track: A Night In Reverse (Demo Version).

Lyrics All that seemed So distant in front of me Appear too soon A constantly open wound All things pass Then fade for no reason When to cross the line For one moment to hide All that was I need every part of it A useless desire Succumb to the grim fortune One lifeline defined our youth I hold on to me and you

Lyrics: I saw you dancing On an empty street Still going strong on a week without sleep Somehow it seemed neither right nor wrong A fixated image That echoes on and on I saw you dancing On an empty street Still going strong on a week without sleep An interval in the continuity In an attempt to dream Most vividly You’re like me Embracing the end Barely holding on Seems like we’re thrown aboard Adrift in the afterthought Barely holding on Relive the night in reverse
