about

Tomas Eriksson talks about the single ‘Axis of Margaret’: “It is to some extent about when I found my mother dead and how surreal it was. It is about seeing how the person who once was your security merely becoming a shell and losing its soul. It is partly about the intense grieving, but also about the sorrow that she actually disappeared 20 years earlier when my father passed away. Her grief devoured her, it took away her meaning and made her an alcoholic in denial. Her name was Margareta and she was the shoulder of the family. At one point, at least.

lyrics

One frame, over and over again.
Face down, you spoke with the back of your head.

Those eyes, blackened like I’ve never seen them before.
They’re not looking at me no more. No More.

I saw the figure that used to be home.
No sounds, only a song from when I was a child. Now that part of me dies, with you.

The darkened face
Stays the same
You left a trace
My given name
The axis of Margret is broken-down//

You lost the one that you held so you fell.

The black hole swallowed the secret that you should have told.
To keep you from lingering in the cold.

The darkened face
Stays the same
You left a trace
My given name
The axis of Margret is broken-down

Hope you find,
they’re waiting by the tree
Feel the air,
It’s coming from the sea
And finally you're free

The darkened face
Stays the same
You left a trace
My given name
The axis of Margret is broken down

In today’s society the old folk tales can be thought to belong to the delusions of the past. With their enchanting riffs and beautiful harmonies Lykantropi takes us via the werewolf transformation back to the rock and folk music of the early 70’s. Sweet harmonies reminiscent of the Mamas & The Papas are layered with electric guitars and flutes into a witch’s brew. ... more
