about

Touanda: “The inspiration for this song is from the photos they found in the students' cameras showing something in the woods looking like a yeti and another photo showing balls of fire falling from the sky, which contributed to some of the theories around the case. The chorus is a reference to the most recent investigation when they reopened the case, and to people who still have hope the truth will be revealed.”

lyrics

Covered up in contradiction
The truth is stranger than fiction
Was the plot even that thick
Or was it your mind just playing tricks

Deception and denial
Judged without a trial
When no one can confess
I can only guess

Comic staged acts
In misleading clues from photographs
That make you question your beliefs

Make the wind and rain cease
Until I find the missing piece
I’ll be the one who brings it all to light

Tell the storm to calm down
It must be hiding underground
We can’t be that far from unveiling the last trace
And maybe we can at last consider this a closed case

Bruises and a deep cut
Won’t reveal a well-kept secret
They will bluff and cheat
But you won’t accept defeat

Comic staged acts
In misleading clues from photographs
That make you question your beliefs

Make the wind and rain cease
Until I find the missing piece
I’ll be the one who brings it all to light

Tell the storm to calm down
It must be hiding underground
We can’t be that far from unveiling the last trace
And maybe we can at last consider this a closed case!

I : Golden Head
by Sol Ether

supported by 8 fans who also own “Misleading Clues”

A solid debut from a promising band, Golden Head is one hell of a first statement. My favourite pick would be Morrigan, the track truly highlights everything Sol Ether has to offer. Deeply mystical work that resonates on a subconscious level, appealing to instincts and fears rather than betting on shock value. And those vocals - it’s pure primal rage Mr Shredder
