MINNERIKET - Time For Suicide LYRIC VIDEO
“We Need to Talk About the Darkness…” has been the constant thorny theme throughout Minneriket’s “Anima Sola” album. It’s an unpleasant topic: painful, awkward, distressing, uncomfortable… and largely unspoken of. Silent tragedy kept behind locked doors, words left unsaid, memories suppressed.
With “Time for Suicide”, fittingly the final song on the album and the last video drawn from it, the topic is not only dragged violently into the light, but forced to the forefront as the viewer’s eyes are involuntarily pinned open to watch the representation of a jagged, festering wound in video format. Laying open the mind’s fatal infection is the only way to release the purulence and “Time for Suicide” does just that.

Minneriket is the brainchild of vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Stein Akslen, who created the project for as much a philosophical and spiritual channeling as a musical outlet. Akslen draws on influences as varied as punk and goth, yet he remains steeped in the intensity of the early Norwegian Black Metal scene.
With Minneriket, he has fully released the passionate darkness of his mind into a musical format that is both disturbing and fulfilling, a near-psychotic break in the glassy thin turbulent shell of today’s world.
