about
'monochrome' is a mid-tempo electronic dirge delving into the struggles of neurodiverse individuals. Fueled by a dynamic, mechanical rhythm and haunting low-fi melodies, it encapsulates the intricate emotions of navigating a seemingly colorful world that, to many, often appears in shades of gray.
lyrics
Senses fail to feel
Senses fail to see
The color of our world
Senses failing me
I'm colorblind
Colorblind
Colorblind
Living life in monochrome
I'm colorblind
Colorblind
Colorblind
Living life in monochrome
What is love?
What is hate?
Why does everything I feel feel out of place?
What is wrong?
With my brain?
Why does every color always turn to gray?
So is this god's design?
Some cosmic cruelty?
Imprisoned in my mind
No hope of normalcy
I'm colorblind
Colorblind
Colorblind
Living life in monochrome
What is love?
What is hate?
Why does everything I feel feel out of place?
What is wrong?
With my brain?
Why does every color always turn to gray?
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
I don a mask to cope with
All that my eyes don't understand
I don a mask you know it
I'm imitating to survive
What is love?
What is hate?
Why does everything I feel feel out of place?
What is wrong?
With my brain?
Why does every color always turn to gray?
I'll only let you down
Oh
I'll only let you down
I only ever wanted to be sane
What is love?
What is hate?
Why does every color always turn to gray?
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color
No color

The NYC-based ”East Asian cyber-metal” group explore musical combinations with a full-throated earnestness that bears fruit in bursts of creativity. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 2, 2023
Harsh R's latest moves away from heavy, noisy industrial post-punk and into darkly melodic synth-pop with textural production. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 14, 2023
The Italian label Raw Culture is a force to be reckoned with & this album is proof of its powers, packed with subterranean industrial heat. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 29, 2023
Faderhead is with and without an accent, "at the same time"; this is truly vocal talent. I am sure many can share in the irony of Australian and European artists singing with an American accent, while the opposite can be said of American artists. The fact that he uses an American East Coast one in 'Darker Please' -a sorta story-, - steering at the rain -, -dokker plz- is somehow classic to being EBM's style and yet proves monotone vocals can still carry edgy and catchy dynamics. aggrophene
