In this month of October the debut of the supergroup Cemetery Skyline, Nordic Gothic, was the record that I really needed to listen to, and it was a blessing that I bought it. It was an amazing listen from front to back and from that album I picked the two standout tracks for me: the opener “Torn Away” and the melancholic and relatable “Coldest Heart”.
As for the song that opens this playlist: “O Convite” is an amazing track by Allen Halloween, to me, one of the best rappers Portugal had to offer in the last twenty years. It was a shame to hear that he had retired in 2022, but his amazing skill on the mic and lyrics will remain with those who are willing to give his body work a chance to listen to. This is one the songs by him that I have revisited lately and tells a story in a very enigmatic way.
For last but not least, I had the chance to see Lacuna Coil live on 17th of October in a packed venue (Lisboa ao Vivo ou LAV). I knew some songs by them and in this gig I learned a few, of which “I Wish You Were Dead” (from their latest album Sleepless Empire) was one of the ones that stuck the most for me. As for “Heaven is a Lie”, it is one of their oldest tracks (from the third record, Comalies), and one that I decided to listen to obsessively after the concert and it is just a ear worm, for lack of a better expression.
In conclusion, this was a month of both discovery and revisiting, as usual, and below I will place the link to the Spotify playlist as well as the links to official sites of the bands featured here.
Enjoy!
