about

Leeches is the first taster from Sibiir's upcoming second album Ropes.

"Leeches" was the first song we wrote after the release of the last record. It's also the first track on this one. The sound and the feel of it is a good mix of the first and the upcoming album. Anyhow, we think it turned out pretty awesome, and it gives you an idea of what to expect
of the record

SIBIIR is Eivind Kjølstad (drums), Jimmy Nymoen (vocals), Kent Nordli (bass), Steffen Grønneberg (guitars), Tobias Gausemel Backe (guitars).

lyrics

Lyrics:
The rot we leave behind, like a disease it’s spreading. Hail the greed until we die. We’re like flies surrounding shit. The stench is so appealing. A blinding bliss. We choose to have it all. Revelled beyond repair, we leave them nothing. Devour all, and let it die. We’re obsessed by greed. We’re leeches. We always crave, we always thrive. We scrape all the remains. The world left barren. It’s too late for remorse. We can’t change the path we´ve paved. The world rots, ignore the stench. The world rots, and still we grace the lie.

Every CoL record sounds organic, but this one in particular... their '70s record' maybe? s/he knows

This one really goes deep. Tremendously heavy and bleak, yet crushingly groovy as well. You can easily see these guys destroying any venue they'd hit live with this. The heavy hitting slow to mid-tempo tunes are sort of tranceinducing. It's very easy to listen to it multiple times in a row or even get lost in it totally. mourner
