*LYRICS*
I transcend
I flow
I am the ocean
I vibrate
Behold, the sound of a living
I live behind the screen of thought
Projections have no substance here
A slender thread informs my life
I taste the coals that burn my eyes
I am the pain, the joy and the fight
There is no separation in this illusion
Breathe every piece of the existence
And feel the entire Universe inside of you
Evolution in compassion
Expanding boundaries where there are no more
Giving birth to a new way of being!!
I transcend
I flow
I am the ocean
I vibrate
Behold, the sound of a living…
I transcend
I flow
I am the ocean
I vibrate
Behold, the sound of a living wave
I let go of anger
I let go of judgment
I let go of guilt
I let go of fear
I feel I’m nothing but a living wave

[@matiosmi137]

1st listen: What is this, some weird metalcore? 2137th listen: IIIIIIIII VIBRAAAAAATE

[@nikitakorytin9121]

Tragically underestimated band… you won’t find it on any tech playlists, just a miracle I came across them. Musicality, instrumental craftsmanship, sound, conceptuality. And such thanks for P. Masvidal and his special cynic vibe in this gem.

[@theomartin6238]

This band deserve to be much, much, much more famous. They are fantastic musicians and brings metal music on much higher level of creativity. Plus, they don’t follow same cliche formula that many metal artists follow last 2 decades.

[@wintherr3527]

They from a tiny corner of the world called Andorra, a country so small you’d hardly notice it in a world map. That’s why they’re relatively unknown. They’re the only metal group from there so they overcompensate by being many bands at once.

[@aKitchenChair]

True friend.

[@John-bb9kd]

I absolutely agree with you, they're super duper underrated in my opinion because the music itself has a lot of uniqueness to it for what the genre of Metal has to offer! 😊

[@kultenhughes3585]

They take alot from Cynic hence featuring Paul Masdival. Honestly I dont think they are as good as cynic, but persephone is one of the top tier metal bands of today. They are also quite more consistent than cynic as well.

[@xrottenrudyx]

Fuck fame

[@Ime8eos]

I didn't know who Paul Masvidal is until i listened to the voice... DAMN THATS CYNIC. Landmark of progressive metal.

[@crsdfox]

Siempre que me desoriento un poco del camino que he escogido y flaqueo al avanzar ante los problemas que enfrento, vuelto a Aathma, vuelvo a Living waves. " Breathe every piece of the existence And feel the entire Universe inside of you Evolution in compassion Expanding boundaries where there are no more Giving birth to a new way of being I transcend I flow I am the ocean I vibrate Behold, the sound of a living wave" Gracias chicos.

[@antonybrutal-fk6on]

This is not a music THIS IS ART Absolutely progressivve melodic and enouhg death!!! Guitar virtuosity and university

[@thatoneguysven774]

I think Living Waves is disturbing at first (because of the vocoder probably), but turns out to be one of the most powerful song Persefone had ever written

[@CamiloMoyaBaterista]

paul is perfect!

[@Marco-sx1kx]

Go listen to Cynic, every prog fan knows that style of singing!

[@thatoneguysven774]

I know Cynic (and I didn't knew Paul was in this song when I heard it the first time), but I have to admit that I am not a big fan of them...

[@jbasti227]

Marco Pires Whenever I hear soft singing w/ a vocoder I immediately think of cynic haha

[@mariojt2085]

100% agree. I know cynic, I love them vocoder on the first try but the vocoder in this song feels disturbing at first. took 3-4 times to be my new fav song tho

[@n5r15]

This fucking album. Just when i thought i had all my favorite bands and albums neatly organized in my head, this fucking thing drops. I cant get over how good it is.

[@Active0Bserver]

Cynic is my all time favorite band, i have no clue how im a year late to discover this gem

[@meanseason3056]

this makes me miss CYNIC so much.

[@edwinlopez9660]

Meanseason 305 they're still together

[@zb695]

That new song was definitely very good. The drummer seems to understand the fans expectations and does quite a few Reinert-y things on it, which I appreciate, since he does it without sacrificing his own voice in the band. Curious to see what comes next from them.

[@peliculiar]

@@edwinlopez9660 In fact they are, but 3/4 are missing and they are not playing anything metal related for around decade.

[@SirPraiseSun]

meh, this is Persefone baby.

[@Vukf1]

@@SirPraiseSun this.

[@milanmarkovic9551]

It looks like Paul Masvidal never failed! :)

[@jakelamont6205]

Paul Masvidal is what makes this song so great.

[@TheApostleofRock]

I love how balanced this song is. I really appreciate when a band can blend cleans and screams tastefully

[@belgradeboy77]

My thoughts as well. Amazing production

[@foreverfalling6925]

Yes! Best song off the album, in my opinion. See you guys in April :)

[@RedShogun13]

Jesus. Are all of this band's songs like this? This is the first I'm hearing of them as a fan of Cynic but this is damned good.

[@JAntonioBenitezG]

Visca Andorra i Visca Persefone 🇦🇩🎸🤟

[@user-en8ie1pt1c]

lets metal yeeeaaaah

[@gregshark751]

This song is so gorgeous. a perfect balance of musicality, technicality and spirituality.

[@zach_zach5898]

4years and I'm still in love with the song that got me into persefone! Amazing band that I'll listen to for many years to come!

[@mladd777]

This song gives me the chills everytime I listen to it. They deserve so much more attention. This album is phenomenal.

[@nwawallace]

I can see a lot of people being turned off by the auto tune at first listen, to you all... I implore to look deeper and wait it out. This band is worth the listen, and if anything strikes you as odd give it time to grow on you. Simply marvelous.

[@Azagro]

Had the same feeling, the first time I heard it in the teaser I was sceptical. When I heard the whole song and the whole album. I simply shat myself so hard, I ripped three new assholes, where one comes out of my head.

[@DiegoThomsenmetalthom2112]

The best part is that it ain't auto-tune.

[@TarksGauntlet]

Figured auto-tune was at least one of many effects put on the intro but I can see how it possibly might not be. Either way my point remains haha. Listen on folks!

[@Malfeasance1]

Fans of Cynic will know what's up.

[@nwawallace]

Yeah, I'm not unfamiliar, guess I just really didn't put much thought into what I was trying to say.. which is probably doubly bad since I'm an audio engineer by profession, but I guess I mostly do editing, and not mixing.

[@mdsdiez]

The most melodic, yet progressive, yet delicate, yet brutal, yet modern, yet off-the-script, yet planned, yet creative song I've ever listen. Years pass and I always come back to this album, and specifically this song. Inside the metal scene, a song all metal subgender fans should love. Fucking amazing.

[@thegrittybuddha]

Spirals within thy being, Stillness is timeless, Living Waves top 3

[@TheTheAndreiasantos]

The lyrics man... ❤️

[@mikhaillopez8773]

Paul Masvidal > life

[@FractalTrades]

disgustingly good.

[@balamalva6749]

To say that this work is perfect is to fall short. Persefone is, very personally, one of the best bands of the moment. What more can you ask for in this album? As I said before is perfect. I try to talk not as a fan, but in a more objective way, but still the words are the same, SUBLIME AND PERFECT. SIn place to doubt one of my favorite bands and the ones I follow and more listen to every day I hope some promoter looks for them and they can come to give a concert to my country, Mexico, I can not wait to see them live! They are the best!

[@pirateking8960]

Nothing better than late night youtube. Always find Bangers!!! fuaaaaaa talented is an understatement. What a BANGER!!

[@andresxdgacituapoblete9920]

Omg 😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤

[@dominicanxxx]

Wow... This is mesmerizing! And i thought that you wouldn't top your last album "Spiritual Migration " (which has a very special place in my heart) you guys are what metal needs right now. This is some kind of "refreshing metal" i would say, so unique, beautiful and special.

[@pungentzeus]

dominicanxxx core is the best metal album of all time

[@R1ckDeckard]

Truly a perfect song. When I want to show somebody my taste in music I usually choose this song ❤️

[@TheGuara4]

2:45 to 4:10 OMG

[@StunckYounes]

Goosebumps...

[@S3lvah]

The ending riff hooked me first, but now this is my favourite part by far. So much emotion.

[@KarRuptAssassin]

yeah but 6:66 omg

[@leoalho2831]

Just wait till you hear that live. Its out of this world

[@mladd777]

The feeling I get while listening to this song is priceless

[@sicboi80]

Damn, okay. I think I just found a new band that I love.

[@pabloparragapastor2411]

Impresionantes, como siempre... Ya no me espero nada vuestro que me "medio guste". Se os quiere.

[@freedomsign2885]

Aathma Part I, Prison skin, Living waves are my favorites on this album. I wish they finally get the worldwide recognition they deserve. I've started listening to them two years ago and can't stop since. You rule!

[@6sentient]

02:46 - 04:10 is a whole new level stuff

[@pungentzeus]

Miloš Đorić hahaha it’s p djent y

[@OfficialGATG]

This and Disperse's "Foreword" albums are really high in my album of the year category. You guys really blew me away with "Spiritual Migration" when I first discovered that album 3-4 years ago. To see how much you progressed in your sound since then is really amazing. I'm happy to see you guys continue to push the boundaries within the progressive metal scene with your blend of melodic death metal and ambient music. Not to mention how the music has the perfect blend of melody, technicality, harmony, and atmosphere to create a beautifully chaotic masterpiece. On another note, fuck you guys for making it harder to pick a favorite track lol :P one minutes it's this song and then next is "Stillness is Timeless" and the rest you get the picture. Keep up the amazing work you guys. Hope to see you all in the USA soon for a tour. I'd love to see you live. I'll do my part on spreading the Gospel of Persefone

[@sergioshred5357]

Amén

[@comanaut9566]

OfficialGATG hadn't heard of DispersE until reading this comment. Thanks for the tip, I am really enjoying their album :)

[@DillonRobinson]

SO GOOD

[@mavistsmiley]

Disperse "Foreword" is incredible!! Talk about genre defying!

[@albertsuchan9366]

I dunno, but Spiritual migration didn't really do it for me. On the other hand, I will be fanboying Shin-Ken and Core till the day I die. Also aathma is imo their best album since shin-ken.

[@ChrisMayhem07]

I love this band, I recently discovered it, I was looking for something new that made me feel euphoric, I think they deserve more popularity, everyone in the metal should know this band

[@zicklavey4517]

2:46 The existentialism.

[@CrazyBrick30]

We're all the ocean, the universe, and, according to In Lak'Ech, each other. Be enlightened. :)

[@Heinousness]

Masvidal is the man

[@SirPraiseSun]

Just Godlike.

[@sephirotheonwe2677]

I can say with out a doubt thats this is one of my favorite songs of all time

[@roniromppanen7335]

I like

[@nicko00drum]

Ole!!!! Hacía tiempo que una banda no me impresionaba de esta manera y oir en este tema la voz de Paul me a emocionado, mi enhorabuena chicos, sois una gran banda, acabo de conoceros pero seguiré investigando y escucharé toda vuestra discografía.

[@killjoyredux8361]

One of my favorite tracks of all time. Hands down.

[@ViniciusDinizDrums]

Best 2017's Metal band and album ! It's freaking awesome

[@Damson143]

holy shit i heard this today and i can't stop listening now

[@isabelmunoz3949]

Super me encanta Perséfone y casi nadie conoce de ustedes y yo los he dado a conocer que son una gran banda los amo desde México les mando un fuerte saludo

[@TearCock]

Totalmente cierto!!! De mis amigos nadie los conocía y yo los encontre de casualidad buscando otro grupo, me llevé una sorpresa!!! :)

[@TheArtOfSubconscious]

saw them live yesterday and it was amazing! the band and the crowd instantly became family!

[@digitaldisruptlabs]

La calidad de musica que ustedes tienen ahora es increible, en serio me alegra ver como han ido madurando y experimentando con el sonido al mismo tiempo. Y ese toque de sabor con Masvidal fue un giro increible. En mi opinion es la mejor cancion de uno de los mejores albumes que he escuchado en toda mi vida. Saludos desde Costa Rica.

[@S3lvah]

The lyrics remind me of how, in terms of science, we're all just collections of atoms that continuously get replaced by new ones, yet retain the same rough shape. Beginning from conception, our atoms come together on the axis of time as waves that form, pass forward, and eventually scatter after having travelled a certain amount of time. We truly are living waves.

[@davidz2035]

Amazing! Come to Mexico, please!!!

[@TheShIr0K]

sería una chingonería ke vinieran :3 :3

[@renlunae4614]

26 de agosto 2018 cre vienen

[@erickrdavilaestrada5733]

Sólo una semana :)

[@Zephr238]

this is probably the best song Persefone has ever made

[@emmett1365]

These guys are kicking my ass oh my......

[@kipnugget3838]

Aathma is the best album of the last decade!

[@oisavvy]

This is what I like to see. The legends helping the talent get over. Paul sounds fantastic with you guys, better than he did on Kindly Bent to Free Us.

[@ChimpityChoo]

Our modern masters

[@doctordrae]

This song would make trudging through ass deep snow so much more enjoyable

[@dukeofhazard1142]

Found my new prog metal band after dream theater,opeth and gojira.😘😘😘

[@Sunspear85]

If you like Opeth I recomend you Porcupine Tree (Steven Wilson is a god to me)/ Katatonia / Riverside

[@dukeofhazard1142]

Sunspear orro Thanks bro. I'm a fan of Opeth too, but didn't get the opportunity to look into Porcupine tree. Gotta see it now.

[@chandna63]

Sarbik Roychowdhury dude checkout ne obliviscaris

[@dukeofhazard1142]

chandna63 Yea, I checked them out recently, and they were kickass

[@amjan]

Check previous albums by Leprous, who got very big recently, as well as Soen and Karnivool.

[@Kenji.1ChessPiece]

The best prog metal band right now ladies and gents! SM is mind blowing and I'm sure as hek this album is too! What a band! ❤

[@wintherr3527]

This band is really the metal definition of cool.

[@SalinaBabba8343]

seriously underrated group of highly talented musicians

[@Roccdrummer]

best band in the universe?

[@mrdeathamore]

No. Cynic. The band that influenced many progressive/fusion bands like Persefone

[@jakelamont6205]

Cynic is a band that doesnt get no where near the recognition they deserve. Traced in AIr is probably the single best album I've ever heard any genre.

[@Solomonar23]

This and Archivist - Construct are my favourite 2017 albums so far. Keep being incredibly amazing.

[@banovidiu7142]

pleaca an plm ca nu le pasa

[@Solomonar23]

go away, romanian peasant

[@thedarkenedsoul]

Saw them at Middle East back in September, incredible show, even without the bassist due to issues. Fantastic and singer is really nice dude. Loved the show and glad i went to see them with a buddy.

[@AlPacinoLeBoss]

This song is amazing, maybe my fav from Aathma now

[@IWatchYouFromAfarOfficial]

Well this is just fucking fabulous.

[@jordidelshams]

Brutal album! Andorra's perfection!

[@not_building_the_ark]

it is truly a task to count on the goosebumps you develop by the time the song ends.

[@lorenam.1702]

I love this guys, they r amazing, they're excellent musicians

[@thomastheuermann6263]

Schade das ich dieses unglaublich geile Lied nicht mehr als liken und Teilen kann 🤔😂 Nice Song !! 😍😍👌

My ears are in love :)

[@lipewarrior]

No words to explain that feel...

siempre es grato escuchar su música, admiro mucho su trabajo, saludos desde México !!!

[@ajames]

So powerful. I break weightlifting PRs to this song.

[@malakbrood667]

Focus from Cynic is the best shit I've ever heard.

[@CamiloMoyaBaterista]

I'm here for paul!!

[@YousifNael]

that fucking riff at the end is unbelievable

[@seanmanaloto9223]

One of my favorite songs off the album and one of your best! Cheers to Persefone and Paul Masvidal!

[@makarrruski5672]

Que chulo el video!! Like si estas de acuerdo👍

In my opinion this is your finest song guys.

[@r1xTer]

This is out of this world!

[@regalblaze1728]

The mix is insane 🔥🖤🫶

[@aeonsofsilenceofficial9207]

Beautiful! Congratulations!

[@musenyx]

Ok so this is the first song I've heard from this band and they sound absolutely fucking amazing, to put it simply. I love their sound, and the beginning of this song was so eerie, its beautiful.

[@TheOvserver21plus]

alguien español? ... Excelente banda!!! excelente álbum!! De lo mejor!

[@Bread_Noob]

God damn that's a spicy meat ball

[@PereRevert]

Yes ! such an impressive performance, a shocking and transformative message. Never give up. You're becoming rising stars of the metal scene guys !

[@chuvacaf2556]
