BLOOD OF THE UNICORN There is a spiral on my face Upon it a long and thin horn It was made of a complete grace Into purity I was born I can deliver my poison I am also able to heal Your pain no matter the season In my woodland I run to seal The secrets of an animal Protect me if you really can I am not exactly normal The research already began Again they try to murder me Iron under my feet is worn Out, They come as an army They have been searching for my horn They have been searching for my art Blood is falling from my white skin My long sword is now a pink dart I think that I pay for their sin There is a circle around me There is a rainbow over it But will you still remember me If I do not escape from heat? Just because I was talented Because I was gifted by life Then I became the most wanted A Unicorn and not a wife Hunters are on the road Haters are in my wood I cannot say a word I answer with my sword Blood of The Unicorn Hunters are on the road Haters are in my wood I cannot say a word I answer with my sword

ROBOTIC NARCISSUS Mother was innocent Mother at the wrong place Maybe the wrong moment She had a god to face Father was a river Father was violent A taboo forever I am an accident I am the Narcissus Famous across the seas I am the one versus A universe to seize Mythology Technology Psychology Mythology Mythology Technology Psychology Mythology Wet before the rain He is perfect beauty Looking at me with pain And with integrity I am falling in love In love with a stranger An angel to involve I do feel the danger In front of the mirror I know it is myself I try to bring nearer The cold charm in itself Mythology Technology Psychology Mythology Mythology Technology Psychology Mythology Echo was repeating Hidden across the rocks "Bye bye" to her darling She finished in a box She finished as a voice Asking for Nemesis To leave me with no choice I will die with no kiss Narcissus the darkness Has become a flower Famous for its brightness Red purple and silver I feel I am precious

Vision Order Mission Murder Army Fiction Domi- Nation Starting blocks Box office Line and chalks Rest in peace See you soon Opponent My cocoon My serpent Starting blocks Box office Line and chalks Rest in peace Black was the gold My blood is green I know the road The golden mean Your eyes implore To summarize : It is time for Summer to rise Starting blocks Box office Line and chalks Rest in peace

about

Du composé organique dont il tire son nom Pethrol possède l’énergie précieuse et l’infinie complexité pour qui sait y prêter attention. Une substance par essence (sans mauvais jeu de mot) curieuse et fascinante : tellurique et pourtant à la croisée des éléments, eau, terre et feu, naturelle mais souvent raffinée, vibrante des innombrables possibilités de la vie, quand elle recèle à travers l’humain une face plus sombre.

La couleur justement parle elle aussi du groupe : un noir de jais, profond et épais qui, traité, renvoi par reflet l’intégralité des nuances du spectre lumineux.

Cet oxymore que Pethrol renferme en son sein s’exprime évidemment à travers sa musique. Mêlant douceur et brutalité, celle-ci oscille doucement entre deux horizons. Un univers où se lie l’onirique et le réel, le spirituel et l’initiatique, le poétique et le violent. Golden Mean rappelle justement ces lignes de mire, du juste milieu cher à Aristote au nombre d’or, en passant par la référence plus directe au nom du précédent EP, Black Gold. Une empreinte mystique qui habite jusqu’aux titres de l’opus, puisque la licorne croise Narcisse ou l’Ouroboros et qui fait de cet opus une source de jaillissements dense.
