CoF is great....but they arent totally different from everything else....everything else in America. Try listening to Limbonic Art, Dimmu Borgir, Graveworm, Hecate Enthroned, Arcturus, Asgaroth, Nokturnal Mortum.....all good bands, Limbonic Art is my favorite band if you only pick one.....but anyway.....has anyone ever considered the possibility from Her Ghost in the Fog that Dani's true love really was raped and killed, or maybe just killed....he seems to write about it a lot...and i mean a lot......there are several songs about just that....like suicide and other comforts and her ghost in the fog and there are countless ones that allude to it in a verse or two.....but from this song, take a particular look at the lines:
An eye for an eye as espied in the bible
My faith is lost to the burning of idols
One less cross to press upon the survival
Of this lorded agony
And I, (much as I have tried
To bury Her from mind,
Fate's tourniquet was tied, when She died...)
Still sense Her presence so divine
Lithe arms about my throat
Like pining swans entwined
Footfalls at nightfall close to mine
Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release
I snatch Her whisper like the wind through cedars
See Her face in every natural feature
Midst the mist and sleepy hollows of fever...
With glee deceiving me
Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release
I hear Her voice from where the grave defies Her
Sirensong to sing along, no finer
Suicide notes, harmonised in a minor
Strike a chord with misery
I would like to add that the, as much as i have tried to bury her from mind, part has some sort of accuracy....on most of CoF's cd's he sings about it like every other song, or at least alludes to it, but there were a few cd's Cruelty and the Beast and then Dusk and Her Embrace on which he didnt even mention the idea of someone he loved being killed.....just an interesting thought
