Abstrakt Algebra

Abstrakt Algebra was a Swedish experimental metal band with influences from power metal and doom metal. It was founded by bassist Leif Edling in 1994, shortly after his main project Candlemass split up. They made one album, but Edling had already started working on a second album with a different line-up. However, due to the commercial failure of Abstrakt Algebra, Edling reformed Candlemass while taking with him some of the ideas for that second album, as well as drummer Jejo Perkovic. There, materialised on the Dactylis Glomerata album. And as such Abstrakt Algebra was over. That second album, called Abstrakt Algebra II, was later included as a bonus disc in the 2006 re-release of Dactylis Glomerata. Mats Levén later appeared as the singer of the band Krux, … more »

Dancing figures of smoke and light 
The jester’s sardonic parade 
Mannequin puppet your limping waltz 
On my bedroom wall 
Keep pretending, keep performing 
The dreamer must stay awake 
Shapeless riddles told by pompous rogues 
Pantomime preachers present 

Empty eyes staring, sunken eyes glaring 
Drowned in a moment of truth 
Hourglass ticking, a childs fingerlicking 
Jigsaw puzzles and clay 
Silhouettoes and gepettoes circling the face of my world 
You point your finger, I break each and one 
A handfull of reasons are gone 

‘Cause you’re nothing 
But a shadowplay 
I am all 
No longer astray 
And I’m sick n’ tired of you 

So get out my house 
So get out my life 
So get out of my head 
So get out of the way 

Taciturned teasers with tattooed tears 
A play of shadows they give 
A blindfolded sejour from Shakespeare to Marx 
Directions vague and obscene 
Comedies and tragedies 
Spastic laughter I sense 
A room, a scene, a private playground 
The front-row ticket I’ve got 

‘Cause you’re nothing 
But a shadowplay 
I am all 
No longer astray 
And I’m sick n’ tired of you 
‘Cause you’re nothing, nothing 
But a shadowplay 
I am all 
No longer astray
