As we enter the death of the year 2022, I’m more and more in the mood for music that can lay out a dark altar for my decaying surroundings. Today, I’m blasting the gothic dreamscape that is The Sade‘s new video for “End of Time.” It’s the kind of driving deathrock that makes me want to dance in the daytime shadows and only come out at night. “End of Time” is off their recent release Nocturna which came out October 28th via Go Down Records — get it here on physical and here on digital. Today we’re excited to be sharing the video with you below!
“End of Time” speaks of depression and isolation, an inner journey to the alienated ego. Seeking answers to existential questions only leads to the annihilation of the soul and the will to die, to reincarnate into another form.
THE SADE
Trying to leave your love behind
Still feel you in my home
I want to get you off my mind
I better be alone
You made this mess and I’m not blind
But waiting for your call
I’m craving for the end of time
Diving in a hole
You’ve got to leave me on my own
My name is written on this stone
I feel a shiver down my spine
I feel it in my bones
I’m damned ’til the end of time
Sitting on my throne
I swear my love I’m not lying
You better leave me alone
Don’t you know you’re playing with fire?
I don’t wanna hear you moan
You’ve got to leave me on my own
My name is written on this stone
