Embraced by the pleasant stench of ever-burning oils
You walk this path of stone
Ablaze with lanterns, dying
With each breath you cannot shake that feeling
The intrusive sensation tingling around your spine
Who is that creature speaking to me right now?
Search within your mind and call me whatever you like
Heavy rain strumming bare wood
- That is my name
Midnight fire waltzing on the hearth
- That is my name
The feeling when you are to be touched
- And then it happens
That was my name
And I wish you would leave me alone.

A Lamb at False Dawn
06:38

|
Fin de siècle round twenty-one, catch XXII
Conciliation with thy maker through his irritation
Bipolar minds spawned a singular war
Catharsis through the cataclysm
Selective retrograde amnesia
Masses tried by fire, then cleansed by the flood
Idle hands do the devil's work indeed
- Rest no longer
Pound the drum of the global strife
- Hear it sing
The hammer of ungods, too heavy and too cold
See it descend, hear its call
Mouths of the crippled
Spit forth the hangman's hymn
The chorus howls in unison
Of thy closure, praising thy fall
The century of contradiction
Autocracy of force-fed happiness
Gluttony, glamour and rape
Melpomene mocking Thalia
Twisted mirrors distorting each other
Winds of madness
- O, hear them howl
The tombs look nice tonight
The dead glow at night
They are forever
With the light coming from their tombs
So we can appreciate
What comes next
Betwixt tigerish wraiths
In the shape of human shadows
Drug-induced sheol
Forget and be forgotten
Psychonautic tear-stained evangelion
You bet we had it coming
- O, hear them howl.

The Statue of Mirrors

Everything lives reflected
In the statue of mirrors
Every shape grows inverted
In the statue of mirrors
A phenomenon beyond phenomena
The veil beyond the veil
An oracle I have become
An empty vessel, a gap
Yearning to be filled
With the eyes of the first man I see
Dispersed in primordial fogs
Renouncing the values of life
I inhale the bright winds
All the light bleeds distorted
In the statue of mirrors
All the filth thrives rewarded
In the statue of mirrors
Thy karma is the colour
Of what we learn to know as death
We brick up the rooms of the dead
It would be dark, without a sound
Thy karma is the colour
Of what we learn to know as death
Inhale the bright winds
And exhale stale odours of existence
Be gone
Through loose threads you crawl
Be still, be nothing
Be gone
A doppelganger in the world beyond the glass
Sharp lines, raw edges
Frame rate high, expectations low
The pace so even
It caught me by surprise to see you die
Strict divisions between one act and another
Your deeds in a sequence
Delicate movements, minor details
Felt rather than seen
The theme consistent, the arrangement so clear
I wish you could see it, too
Such order of things makes me calm
And so were you
At times
Until you were not
The escutcheon of glass forever hides your wound
The beads of foxfire forever lit the tomb
Thy scars unhealed, thy work undone
Thy demise delayed
As for thy deeds – An epitaph?
Please – be gone.

Some still swear to hear the infrasonic disturbance
The rattle of the seismic waves
Centuries old yet driven firmly
Into subconscious minds of the new offspring
What is
Is what should be
What is
Is what must be
What is
Is what will be
Handmade Suns conjured out of thin air
Gases devouring flesh and crippling minds
Mutations lasting for centuries
The face of the landscape reshaped
For millennia to come
Autonomous unmanned aircraft
Scorching the corpse of the city
Decades after the last man had been seen
In the forgotten works
Let the utter silence of the charred souls
Be forever sealed
In the black soundless sugar.

Non-You
06:59
|
|

Come and see
I know your kind
Too afraid to look
Too curious to leave
Lift them up
The chains of your love
And move forward for a change
The grass feels so nice
Under the heavy footsteps
Its spine bends so easily
Almost as easily as yours - I wonder
Have you ever walked with ease?
Your love for the others
Aiming too far, too high more often than not
Your soft voices
Too harsh to me
Your smile is tearing down my skin
I wonder -
Have you ever walked with ease?
Giving for giving's sake
Caring for caring's sake
Weakness, softness, pain and guilt
You always love to share
First come, first served
Come and see
The sum of all things
The art of hide and seek
You and non-you
The hunt is on
You're what you´re not
The hunt is on
You and non-you
Now wake up
And see us die
A knife, a hand -
And screw the rest
For smaller things some burn in hell.

We Have Proved Death
02:20
|
|
||
|
Primitive yet thriving
Suckers for filth and glory
Every dog has its day
And today is the day
We feast upon the ancients
We have drunk their flesh
We have vaped their bones vitrified
We have spat into the well of life
We have poured our black blood
Into the fucking grail
The earthen world will reek of failure
As long as you keep on breathing
Praise sickness, hail hypocrisy
Revel in fumes of decay
As they emanate from thy neighbour's skin
Sons of oblivion
Daughters of nothingness
- Harken to the manifest
We are the voice of reason
The truth of all truths delivered
- Harken to the manifest
Harken to the manifest of the fearless
Animalistic cravings in the small hours
We suppress not
Terrors of day overcome, pain deified
We mock your brotherhood of suffering
Enjoy your days in the hole
Trapped in the flesh that you wish to rule
To no avail
We leave you here as you are
The debt of life paid upfront
We have proved death.

A band you have never heard of? Why? Following still the same labels which feed you with the same ole stuff? Think about it and think about it again because you stopped to care. Enjoy the pain.

There is no life after life, there's not even life, and there's no souls, there's just this dark matter which mutates and transforms. And devours.

Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore

The excellent French metal band Epectase return with another brain-bender, offering an almost proggy take on black metal fury.
