The Myst 03:30
Will you ever strike together, against the will of tyrants and wolves? Through some eyes this words mean madness you won´t catch from them what you can´t understand Humanity is lost In need of directions Will you ever join for something? That don´t implies living in a careless fog? I´ll tell you the story of the one who all alone Encountered those needs, while trying to overcome Life All this nonsense!

He is dancing in front of a crowd of crows They would like him to show what lies beyond, beyond He his laughing in front of some coloured stones And a red light shows the grave beyond And an afonic voice takes control an goes: "They will never know" The doors are closed no one responds He tries to open up but Icarus holds the bolt Then a blue eye comes through the peep hole there is movement in the mail slot Her gentle fingers point out the pearls of Pandora´s Box and says: "go home". Lies You will never know

Minos' Slave 04:46
Mother said: "you should have a home" Father said: "let´s find one" Mother did not belong with the so called good hearted souls She never joined the boat Never saw him grow Mother died alone forever behind the walls In a labyrinth of grey and gold Mother, you blessed our wings Mother, you made us free Mother, just hear the voice of those who lost it all, and teach us how we should spread your love cause the nightmares became strong Justice has a restless touch left the kids under an insane rain of doubts They don´t seem to understand What your last smile meant in their path (I can try to understand) None of them seems to realize (what your last smile means to their souls) that all these kids just need to live (all the kids just want to leave me...) Again (Alone)

Strike now We are talking about different grounds They don´t mind about how our lifes should be They are blind They don´t mind about what we went through Don´t mind Weeping, all alone cause all the strenght went out it´s gone The pariah knows how to bleed Sometimes would just burn it all Weeping along this road You don´t know what we are speaking out The pariah knows how to bleed Would prefer to burn it all You should try (Next to the body, there was a letter) "Prohibited borders, for prohibited lands. Prohibited thoughts, hidden behind those colorful flags. Prohibited people, living prohibited lifes, and the daily permission to use those big warn signs. The enemy is locked and waiting, for us to encounter those horns of anger. Bringing death, even madness. To all who tries to understand. I always tried to understand..."

Syriktes 10:44
In some corners of this town there are people laughing about how they are caught (they´ll never know, that the labyrinth is all around) Through the windows he stares at the crowd trying to catch the sand that slides on their claws (there is a shelter, in every human´s heart) In the square, the monster appears The girl in black points at his stage From all those outcast souls, with their right hands up there is one she wants him, to take back to the box And while the white bull starts to yell a gun is pointing to his head (and once you get out of there, you just find nothingness) Daddy´s voice comes from the beast "You´ll have to kill me if you want rest all my wings were painted black never made them just for fun" "All those bombs, boy All those tears were seeking truths, baby, you can´t longer hide" Mother asks me, who are you, son? And I say now: "Icarus: rise the sun!"

He is coming back, where he belongs the skies are now closed down The ocean knows, that time will pass to see the end of wars We fly across the land to see if we can find a final truth that never comes to make us free and grow But when the music is over and all gets painted black you can see, all your sorrows gone...

about

Avoiding the sea, reaching the land, and finding new suns. "Icarus" is a modern tragedy that Plastic Woods tells through 8 musical acts, in which we find ourselves trapped in an epic story about insanity, hate, love, and the identity loss they may cause. This songs deepen into the strange corners of a human who has to overcome the violent and opressive reality that makes unjustice a daily challenge for the majority, in order to become his own god and break his chains.

Icarus comes out at January 18th with the support of Surnia Records, on physical edition and digital platforms.

about

Plastic Woods Antequera, Spain

Plastic Woods is a power trio formed in 2018 in the dephts of Andalusia

Their music is a trip through different landscapes. From heavy riffs, to fine melodic lines, trying to show a spectrum filled of musical influences and tematic originality at the same time. It´s a journey full of chiaroscuros and an expressiveness, typical of an actual but self-conscious progressive rock, tied to its roots. ... more
