Os The Machine Wolf começam o ano da melhor maneira, lançando o primeiro single – DRAMA – do próximo EP – Skin. Confesso que não tenho visto muitos projectos portugueses a puxarem para este lado mais negro, com laivos de NIN que me deixam logo de orelhas no ar. A mistura entre o rock, a electrónica e o lirismo negro, reflectem-se perfeitamente no vídeo idealizado por Joaquim Pavão, e também aqui a estética assume um papel importante. Estamos perante um videoclip que passeia pelo perturbador, pelo bizarro, pelo perverso, pelo erótico, pela violência, mas também acima de tudo por um sentido de (falta de) consciência na busca pelo prazer. Os meus parabéns a cada um dos intérpretes, o resultado está muito bom. Fiquem com a descrição do vídeo e com a letra!

Wakeful, I am asleep.
Dreaming with freedom.
The stimulus that makes us individuals are fettered.
Here we are fighting with the elements.
The act of trying to follow laws, rules and means that keep us in a safe way.
The occupying of itself.
An homage to the brave, the nonconformist Epicurus pigs that battle for the basic principle that they seek: The pleasure.

I had this dream where I could feel
The things that you used to do
Look out as the water flows
Trapped to this time we’ll fade
To want what you can’t ignore
You scream but there’s no one
You scream but there’s no one
Don’t go away
Don’t go away
You scream but there’s no one
You ask for help but there’s no one
You wake up naked on the floor
Alone
You scream but there’s no one
You ask for help but there’s no one
You wake up naked on the floor
Alone
Alone
(Look out as the water flows
Trapped to the time we will fade
To want what you want to feel like you want to
You scream but there’s no one)
You scream but there’s no one
You ask for help but there’s no one
You wake up naked on the floor
Alone
You scream but there’s no one
You ask for help but there’s no one
You wake up naked on the floor
Alone
Alone
