Embark on the journey of 'Hawaii Suicide,' Diamond Kobra's latest release delving into the tragic downfall of an iconic rock star. This track seamlessly merges 80s rock nostalgia with contemporary dark synthwave, spotlighting the guitar virtuosity of Frank Pané (Bonfire, Sainted Sinners), accompanied by atmospheric keyboards, bass guitar and additional rhythm guitars courtesy of Laines Green.
Laura Scarborough, known for her live keyboard performances with Ghost, and Diamond Kobra founder Otto Løfgren contribute vocals, encapsulating the haunting whispers and inner demons tormenting the fallen star's psyche.
Crafted with chilling melodies, powerful rock, and evocative lyrics, 'Hawaii Suicide' delves into regret and despair, inviting listeners into fame's shadowy aftermath.
Join Diamond Kobra on this profound journey through the dark recesses of the human condition, where redemption seems distant and the stark realities of former fame are laid bare.
lyrics
This is the end
Ablaze
Nothing great will ever happen again
Tonite
You’re gonna die
Rotten in the gutter
Rotten in the gutter
Tonite
You’re gonna die
All the girls, the money, the fame, it meant nothing
Cause here you are,
alone
Welcome to Hawaii Suicide
You’re gonna die
Hawaii Suicide
Tonite you’re gonna die
Listen,
Closely,
I am the voice inside your head that keeps you lonely,
You got nothing,
You're forgotten
Everyone left you cause they figured out you're rotten.
Bright Lights, Long Nights
Oh you lost your star
Look at you in Maui empty pockets at the bar
What’s left? Regret?
Your bullshit?
Tonite you’re gonna die.
You lost your star
You lost your star
Tonite you gonna die
High as a fly
Bright Lights, Long Nights
Oh you lost your star
Hawaii Suicide
Tonite you gonna die
In the end there's is only us
We are Diamond fuckin' Kobra
