LYRICS:
A thousand little elves
Coming up from beneath my bed
They gather round the campfire
And start singing the songs in my head
But with the wrong words!
By the light of the fire their faces
All begin to crumble
And they fall to their knees
They laugh at my expense!
Bloodsuckers!
I could crush you with my thumb
Bloodsuckers!
I’m so sick of your tricks
How I wish the sun would come
I can make lyrics rhyme
All the time
But that don’t soothe my spine
Just making a melody
Should be enough for me
But you like watching me lose my mind…
They’re crawling up my knees now
And requesting a song about love
But I know I’m being teased now
So I’m singing a song about getting squeezed by…
Bloodsuckers!
I could crush you with my thumb
Bloodsuckers!
I’m so sick of your tricks
How I wish the sun would come

The Uncanny Valley
by PERTURBATORsupported by 31 fans who also own “Bloodsuckers”
Disco Inferno is the best synthwave-esque track I've ever heard, and that says a lot.

This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO. The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me.

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 26 fans who also own “Bloodsuckers”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.

An epic dark rock record that will make fans of Sisters of Mercy swoon—massive chords and choruses, plus gothic grandeur.
go to album -
The goth group head into heavier, more distorted territory on their latest, inspired by the folklore of the golem.
go to album -
A perfect slice of summer gloom for those hazy, overcast days when only baritone-voiced post-punk will do.

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10.
