bmurator Mexican Atmospheric Post-Black Metal. I like this a lot! All the instruments are spot on as are the vocals! My only concern is that this project is a little less BM with every successive album. But this is just my preference... :) Highy recommended!!!

ahm95 Se dice que lo barroco es aquello que busca agotar sus posibilidades. Esto es justamente lo que ha logrado Nostalghia en Pelude… Un intento valiente por expresar el presente y aportar al género.
Profundidad, belleza y lo humano. Favorite track: I. Prelude to the Passing of Humankind / II. The Unveilings (Single).

lyrics

At last, you are done with this
oh, modern and new brave world.
You traveller, you lost soul
at the end of times.

There is something that is burning,
and my nerves do nothing.
There is something that is burning,
and my nerves do nothing but crawl on the floor.

My little friend,
there is war outside
and my nerves do nothing
but crawl

like those black snakes
you once told me about,
that only in dreams
you have seen.

I would like to say
this is not our end,
but now I'm here
in the middle of the mist.

And to see the things
that would rather be
remain unseen:
an entire world burning now/down.

I have seen the dead,
I have seen destruction,
my wounds whose blood falls down
to the infinite.
Everything is nothing.

There is something that is burning,
and my nerves do nothing.
There is something that is burning.
May it not be us.

And oh, winter.
Days with no sun
may never stop...

...how the flowers bloom;
to see those leaves fall.

And who, if I scream, would hear me now
among the angels?
And who would hold me near their chest,
for beauty is terror?
