Great album. Strong musicianship with even stronger vocals. Recently discovered this band and I want more.
Favorite track: Venus Lullaby.

This album is 100/10. Nowadays, that a band is from Greece is a guarantee of good rock 🤘🎸

Back from an endless slumber
Across event horizons
Silence where once was thunder
Ashes and rust surround me
I’m breaking
Having seen too many ends
I’m choking
Struggling to let go
Break through the ice
Breathe in the air
Seems like a vice
Wanting to care
Like stars that dot the darkness
Faces I can’t lay eyes on
Still like a twitching muscle
I paddle through the ruins
I’m breaking
Having seen too many ends
I’m choking
Struggling to let go
Break through the ice
Breathe in the air
Seems like a vice
Wanting to care
I decided to care
I decided to care
I decided to care
I decided to care

Venus Lullaby
03:45
|

Lingering sadness drawn deep in my bones
Wandering thirst that no water can slow
Picturing holes in the ceiling above
Through which the galaxy constantly flows
Buzzing in my ears
Urging me to flee
And hunt the great unknown
Like a balloon that’s about to explode
Under the choke of affectionate arms
Hearing the voice of anxiety drone
Prey to the fears I have locked behind doors
Buzzing in my ears
Urging me to flee
Face is cut by tears
Hollowed by the years
Try to let go
Ηave to let go
Break the cages
In my head
Form that maims me
I will shed
Try to let go
Have to let go
Try to let go
Have to let go
Break the cages
In my head
Form that maims me
I will shed

In a house I find myself
That’s the place I crave
In the backyard where I stand
Got to shape my name
Broke my sight in tiny frames
Trying to sense this maze
Bunch of strangers gathered ‘round
What the hell is this
Out of the darkness
Free from these chains
I’ll climb my mountains
Aim for the sky
What was once a happy place
Buried something deep
Running through the dried cement
Crushing on my face
Out of the darkness
Free from these chains
I’ll climb my mountains
Aim for the sky

Nothing but another grain of sand
Even with a thousand lives I’d still
Wouldn’t know a thing
Burn matches in the dark
Blindly throw my wisdom net around
I so crave the precious exaltation
Just without the guilt that comes along
Give me please the liberation
Of not giving a shit
Somehow
I know
Touch the cosmos and you’ll burn
I’m sorry that your plan went wrong
Toughen up, you should’ve known
Some truths we just can’t take
As small as all before
Under dying stars
My delusions comfort me again
A billion billions hold
My hand and show the way
Helping me take another step
Βy now
I know
A snowflake in an avalanche
A billion helping hands will steer
Toughen up, stare down the void
No truth can stand our gaze
Oh when I’m gone
I only hope
I give someone
That extra step

Keep your eyes peeled
Never sleep no more
Always chasing
Wonders through the mist
Fight with time
Never fade
Always laugh
Laugh and cry
Frozen Sand is
Crunching under foot
Found a crack in this
Glass bead universe
Fourth dimension
Really is a bitch
Fight with time
Laugh and cry
Pain
Pain
Pain
With a scream
Tear the sky
Swim upstream
Dive through time
Pain
Pain
Pain
With a scream
Tear the sky
Swim upstream
Dive through time

Like raindrops on the sea
Break stillness and riple the veil
I fall from blackest space
A flailing newborn
Heliacal rising again
More shadows in my head
I left my center back home
A lifetime ago
Whispers through the storm
Calling me back home tonight
shamans guide me through
Vibraphonic dreams
All faces look the same
And yet I feel out of place
I thought I was ready but
Inside I’m at war
No matter the distance I go
I’ll put my ear to the ground
My heartbeat drumming loud
A compass to home
Whispers through the storm
Calling me back home tonight
Shamans guide me through
Vibraphonic dreams
Racing with the wind
But always out of reach are
The places where I’ll find
My footprints from that time
Whispers through the storm
Calling me back home tonight
Shamans guide me through
Vibraphonic dreams
Racing with the wind
But always out of reach are
The places where I’ll find
My footprints from that time

Something is gone
I saw it in you
Something has changed you through
This tunnel of fog
This ocean of dust
And all I can do is just
Just breathe
Just breathe
Just breathe
I’m free
I’m free
The secret in you
Will die on its own
And you will be left alone
Preparing myself
For leaving this land
Tomorrow the sun will rise
Again
Just breathe
Just breathe
I’m free
I’m free

Staring down this pale blue dot
Tiles placed there long ago
Swim and count each one of them
All my life
Under water out of breath
Stretching out of fear
Lasting for a thousand years
Will we disappear
Cutting fast through time and space
Reproducing past mistakes
Orbiting but never met
All our lives
Hovering above this frame
Stretching out of fear
Lasting for a thousand years
Should we disappear
Lose this weight
Losing weight see my
Veins like lanes forming
forming lanes in a
microverse
Random game never
Ending game never
End this game never
Ending game

Where’s your crown?
Did you watch it fall?
And break down
Through this vast black hole
Create time and let it
Die above the smoke
You said you would be here for
All that could go wrong
It was a promise
It was a promise
It was a promise
It was a promise
Fire that grows inside me
Broken glass for shell
Thoughts of human flesh that
Suffers in this hell
Trust will never give me
All the things you’ve lost
You said you will be here for
All that could go wrong
It was a promise
It was a promise
Was just a promise
So now i’m on it

I will cross these fields of nothing
Floating over grass and water
Eyes are fixed across the skyline
Meet the trembling light ahead
That leads the way
And makes the moments fall
Like dirt from open hands
Wishing you had friends like mine
That would fight the raging ocean
Just to keep my body floating
Give their lives so I can greet dawn
Shape the world around me like a river
I will jump over this edge to meet the
Trembling light of those who came before me
Nothing left of me to measure
Greetings to the ones that bore me
Lit the flame that gives me drive to
Shape the world around me like a
River eats the barren valleys

about
While nobody argues the importance of a debut album in setting the ground rules of existence for a rock band and the absolute necessity of a solid sophomore follow up record to establish their presence, it’s the third art installment that will either make, or break them. Puta Volcano, after a number of active years, a larger number of adrenaline-high live shows and an even larger number of loyal supporters, have come to the moment that will define their longevity. “AMMA” is the latest offering from the Athens, Greece based quartet and finds them in a deeply reconciling phase between the introspective artistry and the energetic riffage delivery that both have been trademarks of their sound.
This collection of songs reflects the whereabouts of a band who illustrates the well documented character of their craft and simultaneously branches out to new territories, using bits and pieces of novelties, that make the exploration of this album a detailed nit-picking adventure for the listener.
No one in their right minds would fix what isn’t broken, so the already known Mediterranean mixture of heavy alternative tunes, enhanced with forward thinking american desert classic rock sounds is loudly present once again. Now, if the elitist listener might consider that the scale is somewhat tipped more towards the Tool side of the uplifting harmonies in contrast to the traditional Soundgarden straight forwardness, “AMMA” wouldn’t be a record to argue with that.
Produced by Johnny Tercu and recorded at Unreal Studios in Athens, Greece, by Nick Dimitrakakos and Alex Bolpasis, “AMMA” captures the moment for one of the most stand-out Greek rock bands, through the heavy and clear sound mastering by Alex Ketenjian.
A series of EU tour dates is planned out for the spring of 2020, bringing the volcanic rock n roll on the road.

By far I'd say this is the best album I've listened to in the last 5 years. Each song has its own story to tell whilst definitely getting stuck in your head. 11/10 Guys keep up the good work 🤙 (also great to listen to whilst high or on acid)

One hell of an album. Impossible to find a bad tune. I mean the line 'think the sound of a gun is the one that will set you free'. it's such a fine line between manic & fine, sane & resistant. At least you're putting your shit out instead of bottling & savoring that toxicity. I'm not afraid to admit I bawl like a baby almost every time I listen to Them Nights, just so fucking relatable
