The tragic comedy divine
Paints the way to peace of mind
Leaving shallow lovers far behind
Past uncertainties combine
Bringing tears to sleepless eyes
Memory runs the course of time
Blood runs cold beyond
The violet prison for violent visions
And so the broken record plays
As you throw us away
We're never enough
We're drowning in cliches
So desperate to love
We're twisting every word they say
So we sleep through the days
Within the heat of passion's war
Lust is spilled upon the floor
Staining red the wasted metaphor
The selfish need for something more
Claws in vain at closing doors
Scarring faces once adored
Tracing circles in the
Violet prison for violent visions
And so the broken record plays
As you throw us away
We're never enough
We're drowning in cliches
So desperate to love
We're twisting every word they say
So we sleep through the days
The Birthday Massacre can be describe as a band surrounded with dreams, fantasy, and horror. They have a cute bunny as a logo and their official background color has been Violet from the very beginning. Their main inspiration has been children tales and games combined with the feelings of being alone and desperate for true love while searching for a place to call home.
The Birthday Massacre was formed in 199 in London, Canada, and they were known as "Imagica" until 2002, when they changed their name to "The Birthday Massacre" which was the original title for their song now known as "Happy Birthday". Currently the band consists of Chibi (vocals), Rainbow (guitars and programming), Michael Falcore (guitars), Owen (keyboards), Nate Manor (bass), and Rhim (drums).
They independently produced and recorded their first two albums, Nothing and Nowhere and Violet. Combining music and fantasy with a beautifully atmospheric website (NothingAndNowhere.com), The Birthday Massacre obtained a large and loyal fan base throughout the world. Due to their independent success, in 2005 they were approached by Metropolis Records and so they began its steady climb to reaching a much wider audience with the 2007 release of the acclaimed and wildly popular Walking With Strangers.
A captivating hybrid of 80's electronica and aggressive guitars, curiously fused with a dark cinematic quality of melodic progressions, The Birthday Massacre's soundscapes have continually captivated audiences, earned millions of fans, and placed them inside and on the covers of numerous magazines. They have become renowned for their high-energy live performances, drawing large, mixed crowds through their appeal to fans of a surprisingly wide range of genres. You can enjoy the intensity of their live shows on "Show And Tell" a live CD, DVD record.
