about
Vocalist/guitarist Andy Clarke comments;
“I became so frustrated over the last year; i felt like our whole existence had come to an end; the endless cycle of nothingness was overwhelming. We began writing Sparrow, a tale of not fitting in, and the purposeless of being."

lyrics
Beautiful to see
Long red flare
Strong red stream
Skin like bleach
And eyes for me
I Sparrow
I Sparrow
Not ready to leave
Yet knowing i can
Come with me as one
I know the way home
Understand now
Glare at my failures
This rotting meat
Smells like bleach
I Sparrow
I Sparrow
Joy or sorrow? I simply can’t tell
Engraved lies that seemed to please you well
Continue to breathe, the blood that follows me down
Take me sparrow, and take me now
Long red flare
Strong red stream
Skin like bleach
And eyes for me
I Sparrow
I Sparrow
Not ready to leave
Yet knowing i can
Come with me as one
I know the way home
Understand now
Glare at my failures
This rotting meat
Smells like bleach
I Sparrow
I Sparrow
Joy or sorrow? I simply can’t tell
Engraved lies that seemed to please you well
Continue to breathe, the blood that follows me down
Take me sparrow, and take me now

about
The Crawling Lisburn, UK
The music created by The Crawling is a result of a trio of music fans that have enjoyed, and participated, in the local
music scene for decades.
The collaboration has resulted in a heavy, slow-death ensemble, forged against a back drop of misery and contempt for the world that surrounds us.

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellrippersupported by 15 fans who also own “Sparrow”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

The Blinding Light Of Faith
by DE PROFUNDISsupported by 12 fans who also own “Sparrow”
I missed out on this gem of an album by this Awesome band the first go around. However, with the Awesome newest release I had to check out the back catalog. Thank you De Profundis for the great METAL and to TO for bringing the music into the hands of us crazy METALHEADS.
