about

In darkness let me dwell is an anonymous poem included in the 1606 song collection "Funeral Teares" by John Coprario.[1] Its first stanza also served as the basis to a song ascribed to the lutenist and composer John Dowland. The second song was published in 1610, late in Dowland's career, and shows the influence of Italian music of the early baroque.[2] It was published in "A Musical Banquet," a 1610 anthology of songs for lute and voice from England, France, Italy, and Spain compiled by Robert Dowland, John's son.[3] It eventually became more famous than the Coprario setting, and was recorded by many artists, notably by Sting and Edin Karamazov.

This is the brainchild of Violen and Salyara. Creating the world of Industrial Opera. Drawing on such influences as The Sisters of Mercy, VNV Nation, Switchblade Symphony and Nine Inch Nails.

All tracks will always be free, but donations are appreciated as they will help pay for recording gear and performance gear. As well as our invested time in the project.

lyrics

In darkness let me dwell; the ground shall sorrow be,
The roof despair, to bar all cheerful light from me;
The walls of marble black, that moist'ned still shall weep;
My music, hellish jarring sounds, to banish friendly sleep.
Thus, wedded to my woes, and bedded in my tomb,
O let me living die, till death doth come, till death doth come.

In darkness let me dwell.
