THE BANK’S BITCH – Ombudsfin Belgium. Cinematic Dark Ambient Industrial Horror
A 7 l-minute long dark ambient horror piece unfolds with pulsing tuba and mechanical ticks, woven through metallic percussion, cello, and violin layers, Accordion and harmonium add Victorian hues, while steam bursts and rattling chains enrich the texture, Eerie female vocals rise, joined at 3:00 by a haunted children’s choir over brass swells and relentless, machine-inspired rhythms, Halloween is colored by creepy animal, forest, and ritual chant samples, haunting bells, and distorted bass, Ethereal whispers and choral dread climax before a demonic “Happy Xmas” and monstrous laughter conclude this cinematic soundscape

Lyrics
Lyrics
(Intro – whispered, echoing, distant piano notes)
Your name… echoes in the corridors…
Not justice… but design…
(Verse 1 – soft, controlled, building tension)
Your name is Hans, but you wear a disguise
A velvet mask for institutional lies
Neutrality’s ghost in a paper crown
While truth and justice are bleeding out
You’re not a judge, just a mirrored screen
Reflecting orders from the unseen
A silent cog in a polished machine
Where mercy fades and numbers intervene
(Pre-Chorus – rising strings, breath trembling)
And all the voices… fade to grey…
Inside the system… you obey…
(Chorus – powerful, emotional, soaring)
HANS! — do you feel at all?
HANS! — do you hear the call?
Cold as stone, behind the wall
While broken names begin to fall
The bank decides — you play the role
A borrowed voice, a hollow soul
But shadows rise, and truth will be
A storm the world is bound to see
(WATCH THE SCREEN… WATCH THE SCREEN…)
(Verse 2 – piano-driven, haunting clarity)
“Oral words” like fading light
You twist the day into the night
The debt is gone, the chain remains
Invisible locks in silent chains
You claim no side, you claim no choice
Yet silence screams in your borrowed voice
A gatekeeper of an empty hall
Awaiting echoes of the fall
(Bridge – deep layered vocals, distorted choir)
Dossier… S/SEXY/R…
Access denied…
Neutrality… undefined…
Status… rewritten…
(Soft female whisper layered over choir)
We see you now…
(Chorus – fuller instrumentation, choir added)
HANS! — do you feel at all?
HANS! — do you hear the call?
Cold as stone, behind the wall
While broken names begin to fall
The bank decides — you play the role
A borrowed voice, a hollow soul
But shadows rise, and truth will be
A storm the world is bound to see
(Outro – slow, fading, mechanical echoes, soft piano returns)
The silence keeps… a record still…
Beyond the screen… beyond your will…
(whispered, final breath)
Names don’t vanish…
They remain…
