Cyberwolf – The Creator

Dark beats, broken hearts

I have to admit, when I first saw Cyberwolf's ‘The Creator’, the say­ing ‘Don't judge a book by its cov­er’ imme­di­ately came to mind. The cov­er art­work put me off – it looks rather ama­teur­ish and almost pre­ven­ted me from listen­ing to it at all. I think that's one of the harshest cri­ti­cisms I've made in a long time, but it illus­trates how import­ant cov­er art­work is for first impressions.

Cyberwolf, the Swedish duo con­sist­ing of Markus Enström (Current One) and Sanne Karlsson (Electric Hydra), has really fol­lowed up with this song: crisp synths and an ener­get­ic beat meet a dis­tinct­ive club sound that ignites immediately.

The duet vocals of Markus and Sanne are excit­ing and give the track depth, although I per­son­ally would have pre­ferred a more intense mood with slightly few­er vocal effects. The lyr­ics reveal a dark side, with lines like "You make me fall­ing into dark­ness" and "A burn­ing fire in your eyes" – which I think are per­fect for the goth and elec­tro scene and, in com­bin­a­tion with the sound, make this track a real highlight.

Lyrics of "Cyberwolf – The Creator"

Staring at your door
Don’t know what I’m hop­ing for
I will run this sick show
And I will let you know

Breathing in the dark
Where our feel­ings used to spark
You are stuck in my mind
And I’m always behind

I hear you breathing
While my heart is breaking
My soul is bleeding
Of the love you’re faking
You make me fall­ing into darkness
You cre­ate a life
With a reflec­tion in the knife

I feel your presence
Everywhere I’m hiding
You are the essence
Of the fear, providing
I’m only fall­ing into darkness
I can see your lies
A burn­ing fire in your eyes

The Creator
The Creator

In your lonely mind
Know that I am still alive
You are in my sick show
And I will let you know

I’m right behind your door
And it’s you I’m look­ing for
I’m hid­ing in the shadows
Forever by your side

I hear you breathing
While my heart is breaking
My soul is bleeding
Of the love you’re faking
You make me fall­ing into darkness
You cre­ate a life
With a reflec­tion in the knife

I feel your presence
Everywhere I’m hiding
You are the essence
Of the fear, providing
I’m only fall­ing into darkness
I can see your lies
A burn­ing fire in your eyes

The Creator

The Creator
The Creator of life
The Creator
The Creator of life
