Metropolis Necropolis by Helalyn Flowers

This new revolted and heavy industrial pop song “Metropolis Necropolis” points out to what our cities have become: schools of dehumanization and death, titanic concrete and glass gravestones where mankind mechanically consumes its condemnation.

A labyrinth of the absurd, an anthill doomed for neverending repetition… A devastated psycho-urban landscape where the HELALYN FLOWERS manage to blossom from the slime to create their own artificial Eden within the city walls, shout their disenchantment and disillusion, and raise as the incarnation of the symbol of the wise.

“Metropolis Necropolis” has that intrinsic surrealistic anger that characterized the band’s early work merging goth punk attitude, revolted guitars, addictive powerful female vocals and hard-pop catchy electro keyboards, evoking some kind of a futuristic version of SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES on acid or other boosted LADYTRON on steroids… Straight, sharp and incisive, this stunning new song grabs your heart with energy and wraps it with a veil of apocalyptic melancholy.

Mixed and produced during phase 1 of the Covid19 quarantine, with a feeling of zeroing the future and living in an eternal present that has paid off to fulfill a beautiful artistic parenthesis that has continued the emotional axis of the new upcoming album "Airesis"…

Lyrics

Forget
Forget me now
I need to go
Cause gravity is pulling
Pulling me down
To this brand new world
But I’m keeping on
Breathing chemical feelings

I see monsters dying of disillusion
This is what you aimed for
But what else is there?

Metropolis Necropolis
Dystopian dreams all I can see
Metropolis Necropolis
Insanity is reality

Fallen
Fallen is not just another word
It’s a real condition
A state of mind
But please don’t forget
That you’re mesmerized
By these chemical feelings

I see monsters dying of disillusion
This is what you aimed for
But what else is there?

Metropolis Necropolis
Dystopian dreams all I can see
Metropolis Necropolis
Insanity is reality

I see monsters dying of disillusion
Is this what you aimed for?
Is this what you aimed for?

Metropolis Necropolis
Dystopian dreams all I can see
Metropolis Necropolis
Insanity is reality
