140 gr black vinyl. Centering around an aquatic theme for this split EP, Alpaca teamed up with Spanish instrumental Post-Metal band, Kalte Sonne, from Lugo. On Alpaca's end, "Drown" emulates the three stages in which one can imagine the feeling of being submerged in violent water; "Breathless", Tranquility", and "Narcosis" make up these stages. On the flipside, Galician band Kalte Sonne (German for "cold sun") have worked out a wide expansive sonic space with "Mareira" in a flooding instrumental track that evokes strong emotion and builds and builds towards a big climax.

	1.	Alpaca - Drown 12:03	lyrics
	Submerged Darkness from above Suffocating Into a wrong belief Staring down Into an empty space Wading through A dark and thick sludge Water floods Waiting for the time to drown I feel breathless Lungs are watered down Heart is pounding In an unknown corpse The crown has fallen Heroes die alone No more suffering Peace invades the soul Water floods Waiting for the time to drown Swamp of feelings Gone away at last Wave across A mirror of reality Tears are falling A cry for help is too late Slow and painful Death will take me away Water floods Waiting for the time to drown My heart is drowning Blackened is my soul Narcosis My heart is drowning Blackened is my soul Narcosis
