ATME – Whorty of Pity
Smooth
Say
Say it
I've dug this from the bottom of joy
Say
Say it
You're tossing me like a needless rattle
a box of pleasure
seal my eyes for a little longer
Whispers cruising around my neck
laying all complains
My will has been pacified
How repulsive I've became
I'm abandoned copy of myself
You've done here
Wait
where you're running now
Escape from the edge
Invade all my boundaries
It's nothing personal
I'm the shelter for your
socioholic hungriness
I know
It all goes out of control
It all slips out of your might
How exactly did you sneak so close
forced all the locks
Take what's you want from us
Go and play
Who can stop this spinning circle
I see how far you would go
got it now
Embrace this tide fine
Where you're running now
Escape from the edge
Invade all my boundaries
It's nothing personal
You are the shelter from my
socioholic hungriness
You know
It all goes out of control
It all slips out of my mind
You've gone left me wounded
I'm watching the fallen
what they're saying for the goodbyes
I'm telling myself it will be the last time
when I'll let you in
just pull the trigger
Nothing can be more clear
This is how I still can forgive you
I've dodged the light
come to realize
what I care for the most
You're tearing all my hope
Anytime
It crossed my line
I've reanimated my strength
Say
Say it
I've dug this from the bottom of joy
Say
Say it
just sit watch and enjoy the view

ATME - Pleasure Box
She threw herself
into a riverrun
maybe, she'll drift away
living beyond the limits
Hey you
I'm looking for the explanation
unveiling my power to be
to reunify in one flash with you
Hey you
probably the skies will fade
it's presence in your midnights running
I hope that I'm the man who's got it
Hey you
are welcome between my shapes
Don't rush to cut it out
and loose those chains
that hold my nature down
Hey you
we lost its meaning in sanity
we were far from the past
but there's nothing left
just killing question who's your favorite now
After while
The light abandoned its host
You're seeking for the right reactions
but and instead just open my eyes so close to yours
Hey wait
Where you're running all the time
Just stay
and guide me through its signs
This story will match
never like before
I'm closer to Your skin
I'm gone
You're reaching for my flesh
My scars so terrified you tonight
(My scars so terrified you tonight)
Your doubts have filled our nest
(Your doubts have filled our nest)
When You looked inside
(When You looked inside)
after all, I'm pushing
to be released from
Hey you
welcome between my shapes
Don't rush to cut it out
and loose those chains
that hold me down
Hey you
we lost its meaning in sanity
we were far from the past
but there's nothing left
just killing question who's your favorite now
I'm approaching your skin
To fall
You're reaching for my flesh
Inflamed, do I keep my oaths?
It's tossing me like a needless rattle
enjoy your box of pleasure
make yourself comfortable
I'm getting my own view
getting my own shape
I'm getting my own realm, when
getting my own set
I'm trying to remain tough
trying to avoid tail
Closer to tide
Closer to tide
Crossing the waves
closer to tide
I'm done
closer to tide
I'm done
Crossing the waves
closer to tide
Wait for the dusk
make the best to my recollection
I'm closer to tide
That spark could not be recalled again
like the mark you've left
dust seals what was never named and cursed
My ocean is running out
I'll welcome you falling into me
make me real

ATME – Trickster
Descent to sound take on
Brighter faster
as hell
In blue day
descent
in you
Do you really
You really think it matters
Do you know who’s gonna roll the dice
You’ve got my admiration
That one who could shift your world
So tonight don’t decide too long
I’m sneaking to your lust for a while
Encourage to follow
the promise of an endless
Drift
moves you
In hundred
Places
you catch me in many places
They handcuff me to the order lines
Calling me a villain
Average killer of evenness
I’m looking for another way
Endeavor not to wreck the truth
Well at least
what is left in me
I’ll do this
In Trickster’s way
I've got my arms today
So just show me what you’re made of
Feel this Jazz maybe
Shine
Let’s dance
Welcome
to my place
Guess who
will rip you now
Cast The Spell Mold Done Charm Say When I've Been Ready Right Here Right Now
Go
I always
I'm always there
Waiting
I'm still watching You
I'm still watching the spinning coin
Do you feel that shiver
When I stand across the land
Do you think I’m real
Or I’m just an impostor of your dreams
Still, heart brings you to me
Can you push it away
So just show me how you make some tricks
Groovy

ATME - Interrupted Call
Hear the roar of thunder
his presence
his guidance
Let the sound cross the moonbow
Before I'll be gone
and imbalance will poison your spine
my trust in you
It's so solid
It may be the promises
From one gate to another
Why're they turning me
from Core
and the questions get started
as we read the same signs
Look beyond its surface
can you imagine
As we summon it voice
name it as you wish
and slay that shame of ignorance
It can conjure as an unknown guest
restrain the ego I hope you understand
Don't let the grief be escorted by hate
name your path
It's just a ride
I'll do my best
I take this single shot
the rite will do the rest
it wasn't the right place
wasn't the right judge
you say it when you slip again
Sometimes is true
but sometimes you feel strange in your own dreams
With no answers to your prayers
I see your faith fall into pieces
You've paid the price and cried as we stood before
It is a simple task
heaven can wait
and I've tried
as I've cried
Time will heal your wounds
without a mercy
clear a sight it will come
let it go
let it go
let go
It is a simple task
Looking into your eyes again
This is our body
What do we need it for
once again
Looking at the horizon these days
The dazzle of stars that circle around my nothingness
I've spent my life concentrated on the loss
these were the broken lands
Lonely night walks cleared my mind
Now I'm taking the high roads
getting my own salvation
what do we choose
If could I fly away from this body
Don't be afraid to ask
How can I quit from myself
So much struggle
If You have a soul
Let it go
It's growing again
growing again
and it's growing again
and I cannot stand
Your wall
so I fly again
Let the rain wash away the things
you're holding tight
We'll rise
Like we always do
This is why
it's tearing me apart
place us in such unknowledge
where the eyes and ears are hidden from it
where the hell you've gone
It's flowing away
It's flowing away
How could I quit from myself
I can't quit from myself
I can quit from myself
You can't quit from Yourself
You can quit from Yourself

ATME - Pecto Drill
Crashed once more
Sweet Genie take this globe from me
Stone after stone
Take me with you please
And it goes like this
Sweet Genie where I lost my jokes
The bargaining of the separated minds sounds familiar
Speaking the devil
I verified fury
It's more than a mess
Why I still want to leave you
Why from all of them it’s my first wish
it can’t be undone
It’s time
To stand
Face to face with you
When we get to the Ghost Town
My Dear
I haven’t said
Let this hit combine with your threats
When we get to the Ghost Town
I haven’t said
a word about You
Little games that You wanna play
In cruel puzzles so good You are
We collapse in intensions instantly
It is so predictable
Running words from your mouth
These goodbyes leave no chance
Closeness bursts like bubbles
it’s so simple just don’t pretend
it can't be undone
Let’s talk
This time
Something between us
goes wrong
My Dear
I haven’t said
Let this hit combine with your threats
When we get to the Ghost Town
I haven’t said
This uncomfortable situation
leave’s my sense of purpose damaged
still, you don’t find
method to beware of this harmless bullshit
by fake glance, you make your puppets
you leave’em
dump them blind
Blur of things that were pure
Blades of grass dancing at the wind
You can finally kill that maniac inside
Some madman whispered me too
Damn!
It was just a vision dragged by
a full hallucinated discovery of your body traps
You can deny it
Drills in You
All my senses seem to be on exile
It drills in you
drills in you
drills in you
When we get to the Ghost Town
My Dear
I haven’t said
I want to face the wind
I wanna change the channel
You split the perfect ignition
Correlated with switch I won't say
Holy bloody damn you

ATME – (un)cut Thoughts
You need to
Wait through this clamor
That's reaching as far as can be
Is diffusing and diffracting your voice
So please be
Calm with things that I hear
Couse of them I lose my sleep
You don’t want to listen anymore
Anymore
Old sharp shapes that you know
I’m cutting them
Reforging into new ones
I hear voices coming from everywhere
but something inside me is keeping me away from creativity
enough strength to rolling on
I’ll still try
I keep it in subconscious
thoughts that program my sight
I can return to your womb
He claims that is not real
While I breathe there is connection
I feel it is possible
And so I bear this divine
Essence of a mind
Crossing in the midst of the stream of thoughts
That feel of embracement
Like chasing this cold flame
If you can feel
I go bravely through the storm
Come and join me
We could be one
With You
You need to
Wait through this clamor
That's reaching as far as can be
Is diffusing and diffracting your voice
So please be
Calm with things that I hear
You don’t want to listen anymore
Anymore
Old sharp shapes that you know
I’m cutting them
I hear voices coming from everywhere
and something inside you it keeps you away from creativity
enough strength to rolling on
I’ll still try

ATME - Hotel of the Transfiguration
Floor is becoming little scabrous
I opened the journey book on the last log
Nothing left to hide beyond the mirror
That look foreshadows what may come
Near
Find the way to the next stop before ground moves under your feet
Come to see this Hotel, change is easier than trying
Fine
Morning breeze is less heavy than
inhale
Action is worthless here – glitch
Fly into rage
Which true doors
Witchcraft phantom corridors
Entering into this madness is
obvious and necessary
This cold remains open
entries consumed my will
This is how the play
it repeats
Over again
It’s more than a maze
You got this all inside your head
And It burns
Everything you know
Stay on path
on a destination of unknown
everything you know
Maybe I’ll ask somebody for the road
It’s time I saw it in us
Desk Clerk smiling widely, wishing me a good stay
Full-service Sir - on the house of course
I see windthrow outside
but there is no air to breathe
How long I’ll stay here I don’t know
I took many things with me here
And now she’s coming from time to time
She's passing through doorstep, she’s stopping for a while
She left me a message on the wall
in the left corner of my mind
How could I forget this
How could I forget this moment
How could I
I feel
Take this when you're loosing your control
Finally, I can stand at the crossroads left behind me
Shades reflect echoing in
in all the drops of life
All those bridges that you’ve burned
now change in wraiths
set you in hollow
emotion
Now breaking the silence
diving in the ocean of will
it will be brighter here
you didn’t think it would come true
So enough of suffering because
from this point, you can take more
In such a perfect moment
such a perfect moment

about
“State of Necessity” is a debut album from ATME, a Wrocław based rock band. Together with their EP “Forgiving Myself” released in 2015 it is the second fully mature collaboration between ATME and the producer Mark Dziedzic from Uniq Sound Studio. There are 12* tracks on the album, most of which is the sum of previously created compositions and inspirations collected since the band was formed, while the rest is the effect of work and ideas that appeared during the recording process. “State of Necessity” is characterized by strong and heavy sound combined with spatial melodic parts of instruments and voice. Guests invited by ATME to collaborate on the album additionally enriched the music with instruments such as saxophone, gongs, Tibetan bowls, koshi, didgeridoo and even concha.
As musicians themselves claim:
“ATME is an experience of space. It’s the beginning of the journey to the roots, to unity with oneself and the world around.
"State of Necessity" is not a concept album, however, we've put some concepts into it, some are hidden, some are easy to see and grasp. Each of our songs was created separately as an individual idea/concept. Every song has its own story and is touching on different aspects of life and musical influences. However, when we've decided to record this album and put all the songs together, it was very important for us to create the main idea, a code, to sort out the way it works the best. It was more about how it feels and how one track leads to another. In our case, we have used the concept of the Chakras, so that every one of our seven main songs was assigned to particular chakra that fitted its overall vibe and energy and in some cases, even some of it’s meaning. The main seven where then connected with additional shorter forms of music that glued the album together and created spaces ”to breath” between the more complexed tracks. The other concept is the title for the album, which comes out after the final decision to record it, it references to our musical road and even the name of the band.”

As has (rightfully) already been said elsewhere, this band and album are "absolute fire." Despite the doom-gloom cover art, this type of rock music is a positive force. Especially without vocals, which for me is a bonus.
