相关介绍：   Scar Symmetry成立于2004年，当时Kjellgren (前Carnal Forge, Centinex, World Below)、Henrik Ohlsson (前Theory In Practice, Mutant, Altered Aeon)、 Per Nilsson (前Altered Aeon), Christian² Älvestam (前Unmoored, Incapacity, Torchbearer) 与Kenneth Seil决定成立一只全新的融合多种元素、视听者更容易接受的死亡金属乐队。乐队将许多合成器的效果连同变化无穷的吉他Solo一起，融合到了音乐当中。

Volo：之前没给大家推荐过旋律死亡金属，今天特意找了首，旋律死亡金属，顾名思义，旋律绝对差不了，优美的金属旋律，加上死亡唱腔，是我比较喜欢的金属风格，不像死亡金属那样，从头到尾的嘶吼，Scar Symmetry都会在歌曲里死亡唱腔中加入清唱，让歌曲更加优美，大家能接受的就听听吧！

歌词：

Song：The Illusionist
Artist：Scar Symmetry

As an outcast I paced defeat
Seeking comfort in this painful retreat
Made an oracle³ against my will
Word spread of miraculous⁴ skills

Premonitions call my name
I once doubted them all when they came
Now I embrace it and I'll never be the same

Transfixed in the desert sands
Take a look at my once empty hand
See the rose that appears so real
Just like the one you saw in your dreams

Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
The illusionist in everyone

As an outcast I faced defeat
Seeking comfort in this painful retreat
Made an oracle against my will
Word spread of miraculous skills

Premonitions call my name
I once doubted them all when they came
Now I embrace it and I'll never be the same

Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
Illusionist in everyone

What I say and what I do was once potential
Sprung from the infinite place that dictates⁵ the seen

Those who call me avatar
Know not what they're looking for
They just feed their flames with miracles
Just so you know
If you bathe within my light
You diminish your own might
Illusionist in everyone

In everyone!
