About Band
Hailing from all reaches of the globe and re-born in the shifting tides of the Oceanus, Across The Latitudes is an eclectic rock-based collective who have migrated through the Chanel and up the Themes to 51.5171° N, 0.1062° W (London England), their new base of operations.
Striving to prove that any genre of music or background of life is just another note, Across The Latitudes, aspire to submerge the preconceived boundaries of Rock 'n Roll by fusing Blues, Jazz, Metal, Funk and Classical music. Across The Latitudes endeavour to expose the calm within the maelstrom, the chaos within the gentle tide and the beauty and serenity of the storm it’s self.
Tomasz Biec: from 50.7300° N, 16.6600° E (Dzierzoniow/Wroclaw Poland) is a self-taught Bass Guitarist and the co-founder of Across The Latitudes walong with Fluency Grey. An ambitious and meticulous musician, Tomasz's unique form of bass forcefully wrangles the intricacies of Funk, NuMetal and Grunge in to powerful melodies that inspires the music with vibrant through lines of passion and strength.
Amanda Dal: of 59.3300° N, 18.0700° E (Stockholm Sweden) primarily left 59° N to pursue studies in Percussion before joining Across The Latitudes. The Swedish sweet-heart fuels the group with her intense rhythms and eclectic shifts to add diversity and authenticity to each new track. Amanda proves to the masses that the blokes aren’t the only hell razing hard hitters!
Fluency Grey: raised at 45.4214° N, 75.6919° W (Ottawa Canada) formed Across The Latitudes undeterred after the failure of his previous 3 bands in 2010. The self-trained Singer/Song-writing/Guitarist has been playing the least amount of time out of all the members of the band, though is known for his wild stage performances and high energy, aggressive guitar playing.
Paolo Menna: birthed at 45.4333° N, 10.9833° E (Verona Italy) joined Across The Latitudes in winter 2011 despite his credited and substantial academic skill. The perfectionist Paolo, is the 20-year-classically-trained-pianist of the band whose smooth bitter-sweet touch and professionalism instil beauty and longing in to every song.
Now in studio transition, Across The Latitudes plans to begin writing and testing new songs and material in and around 51° N area; so keep your eyes to the stage and keep your ears to the speakers and watch out for Across The Latitudes !!!!

Songs
FAR TO FALL
tell me
i take it in
i let it go
i let it take you away
free fall
i let it drop
i pick it up
and head on back to the start
not surprized i hate this
my love has gone away
left behined in peices
i plan an escape for this realities sake
how far do i have to fall
to feel the pain of it all
A stars shine so painfully bright
my head spins round with the LIGHT!
stand still
running on
nothing left
so get me back to the fray
wait here
not a chance
get some more
i gotta go for the heart
not surprized i hate this
my love has gone away
left behined in peices
i plan an escape for this realities sake
how far do i have to fall
to feel the pain of it all
A stars shine so painfully bright
my head spins round with the LIGHT!
SLIPPING THROUGH
well the earth won't stop to stare as i'm standing still
waiting for the turn
but this wave crashes down on me over everything
that i thought i knew
grip this dust but all i have to show are my stained grey hands
and an image of you
so i stare starstuck blind and deaf waiting for the sand
to slip though my nails
wait i need more time
wait 'cause i'm loosing my mind
never saw you pass me by but i still felt the moment fly
like the ashes in a fall i barely felt you slipping through
(hey- 'cause there's not enough time) x4
CAN'T STAND TO WAIT CAUSE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME! x2
shattered glass and oppertunities seem to radiate
before you feel the loss
a fading face created in my mind just to fill the frame
of a canvas - blank and dry
unsatisfied with hollow hopes and goals designed to fill up space
and ever ending time
but i can't just wait to slip or bide my time after all that's been
so you'll end up slipping through
wait i need more time
wait 'cause i'm loosing my mind
never saw you pass me by but i still felt the moment fly
like the ashes in a fall i barely felt you slipping through
(hey- 'cause there's not enough time) x2
CAN'T STAND TO WAIT CAUSE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME!
wait x4
A MID-NIGHT LULLABY
quand la ciel turne a gris
et j'ecoute tous la bruis
qui ce sonne chaque mid-nuite (at night- when the sky turns to grey)
et je demande qui je suis (at night- when the sky turns to grey)
quand la Ciel turne a Gris
et j'ecoute tous la bruis (at night- when the sky turns to grey)
qui ce sonne chaque mid-nuite (at night- when the sky turns to grey)
et je demande qui je suis (at night- when the sky turns to grey)
THE STORM
i see the storm
and even in the distance
i can feel it in my bones
do i feel lost
within this sea
though i know what's in front of me
trouble is
on it's way
i see the
storm araise
and the
sky turn from white to
grey clouds hang
in my mind
i feel the
trouble near
but i know that some day i will be okay 'cause i'll run away
where is my best
when i need it most
because my hands are bound in ropes
so i'll break free
never once again be
traped by the chaos that surrounds my soul
trouble is
on it's way
i see the
storm araise
and the
sky turn from white to
grey clouds hang
in my mind
i feel the
trouble near
but i know that some day i will be okay 'cause i'll run away x2
BROKEN DREAMS
well i found myself a broken dream
spliced, cut, wrecked fucked all these broken scenes
so will i wake to find some long lost means - or will it
turn out that it's just how the world seems - no
y'drive a lie further in to my back
d'you feel alive while you tell me all that i lack
so where's the dream that i've been hoping to see well i don't
feel awake but keep forgetting to sleep - so
well i'd say that there's nothing to lose
but the hope that you wanted to gain
so i'll fight just to proove myself wrong
AND I'LL TAKE THE DREAMS AND ALL THE SHIT FROM THEM TOO!
MINDSTORM
well we wait- for a chance to glow
but the light- seems so cold to the low
better than your eyes though- cause they're dark let me go
try to run so- fast but we're slow
face the rain that dampense your mind and cheats you into disgrace
feel the fake black tears as they freeze on your face
the rageing wind tries to hold you back tries to keep you in place
SO KEEP THE COLD TO THE BONES
AND KEEP THE ICE TO YOUR VEINS
AND LET YOUR HEART KEEP THE PACE
another lost Chance- chalk it up to a fail
how does the world- look when you can't prevail
there's always light though- in the storm through the hail
you put in the time yeah- but you can't get the bail
face the rain that dampense your mind and cheats you into disgrace
feel the fake black tears as they freeze on your face
the rageing wind tries to hold you back tries to keep you in place
SO KEEP THE COLD TO THE BONES
AND KEEP THE ICE TO YOUR VEINS
AND LET YOUR HEART KEEP THE PACE
soaked through
chilled down
to the bone
weighed down
hearts your
feeling low
black clouds
form on
every thought that you own
mind storm
rain pours
now you're cold and alone
face the rain that dampense your mind and cheats you into disgrace
feel the fake black tears as they freeze on your face
the rageing wind tries to hold you back tries to keep you in place
SO KEEP THE COLD TO THE BONES
AND KEEP THE ICE TO YOUR VEINS
AND LET YOUR HEART KEEP THE PACE
