Eidolon Alpha Lyrics

Oh Child, Deceive me
Enter the same the same as I
Moments pass as desperate contortions unfold
Seeking placid sanity a moment of calm
Cancerous anxiety and thieving doubt rain
Sheltering indifference to dignify rage

Begging for a line drawn in the sand to separate the prophets from the men
Then bittersweet the wicked so the guise of harmony can breathe again delighted
Hear me son the rivers dry again foretell the fate and lead us to the edge
Let the prideful sinners bear the gold and buy acceptance


Breathe again
To waste away inside here
The years in turn your haunting words have never left my ears
My mind oh reckoning pride is the mirror through which we must break

Wretched disfigured confused and distracted
Down in this cellar it's cold dark and manic
Clinging indifferent privilege demands
You excuse your excuses, excuse your excuses
And blame, you blame
Fearful, deceiver, dim motives erratic
This dream too ambitious this vision too drastic
Choke down rhetorical scraps from the attic
Forever to stand there and still just refuse to change
Just change

Set the nightmare alight and
Dance till these flames illuminate
the cause for the lie
Redemption is not beyond our time

Formed in late 2002, Seattle's RISHLOO continue to gain wide-spread recognition for their dynamic sound, thought-provoking lyrics and intense live performance. Often compared to bands like Dredg, The Mars Volta, Tool and Fair to Midland, RISHLOO strives to push the envelope of psychedelic, progressive art-rock, drawing inspiration from classic artists like The Beatles, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd, while incorporating the modern experimentation and emotional depth of artists such as Tori Amos, Deftones, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree and more.

In February 2012 the band announced that Andrew, the vocalist, decided to leave the band, this being the unexpected end of RISHLOO. The remaining members briefly formed the band The Ghost Apparatus, until late in 2013 when Andrew and the band rejoined forces. On October 10th 2013 the band announced that they had decided to move forward making music as RISHLOO.

Continuing as they have since their inception as an entirely independent venture, RISHLOO have sold 5,500+ units of their debut album, Terras Fames (2004) and 9,500+ units of their sophomore effort, Eidolon (2007) while attracting tens of thousands of fans online from around the globe. Interest in the band continues to grow exponentially on sites such as Myspace, Facebook, YouTube, ReverbNation and Last.FM.

With a lot of hard work and much appreciated help from their fans, RISHLOO continue to travel and perform whenever possible throughout the U.S. and parts of Canada. In the course of their adventures, they have been privileged to share the stage with artists like Karnivool, Papa Roach, Fair to Midland, Ashes Divide, Sevendust, Trapt, Strata and Judas Priest.

The band's latest effort, Living as Ghosts with Buildings as Teeth, was released January 2015.
