HOLLOW VOID (2022)

Cuarto álbum de estudio para los franceses, un trabajo que llega casi diez años después de su último lanzamiento, seguramente fruto de la participación de sus miembros en otras bandas como IXXI, Temple of Baal o Vorkreist, entre otras, sin que eso si, se haya resentido el resultado final del sonido del álbum. Un álbum que desde el inicio se muestra directo, denso y oscuro, repleto de secciones capaces de desprender tanto, odio, como rabia o desprecio. Para ello Hell Militia se ha empleado a fondo en un apartado como el de las guitarras en donde podemos encontrar cierta dualidad en su sonido, una empleándose en una faceta más rápida, densa y directa, mientras que cuando la segundo guitarra entra en escena lo hace con una propuesta más puramente black, con características que se pueden encasillar dentro de la crudeza, aportando un tono melódico a la propuesta y sabiendo ofrecer también una ambientación mucho más sombría al conjunto. La batería en ningún momento pierde el pulso, en una apuesta hacia un ritmo alto y también violento, aunque en secciones también aborda terrenos mucho más lentos, contribuyendo a aportar otras texturas a la propuesta, texturas que van desde un sonido más elaborado por momentos, trabajando mucha más las atmósferas y que van salpicando el álbum de forma arbitraria, sorprendiendo al oyente y contribuyendo a un sonido mucho más rico, alejándolo de los estándares del black/death. Estándares que se vuelven a repetir si prestamos atención a las voces, con secciones viscerales, oscuras y agresivas, pero que también saben explorar otros terrenos, bajando la intensidad y queriendo abrazar estructuras más accesibles, sin que por ello pongan en entredicho la carga de oscuridad de la que hacen gala desde el inicio. Un álbum, en definitiva, que encierra y ofrece un sonido correcto dentro del black/death, pero que sabe también ofrecer una buena dosis de elementos que muchas veces los sitúan con un sonido cercano al black más puro. (8,4).

Season of Mist Underground Activists

1. Lifeless Light 04:21

And the call of death resonates In the abyss Succumb to the void, The light to consume all lights The imminent decay, Rising above this pile of flesh The lifeless cold engraves on the face of man So let a thousand knives slit A thousand throats And on the threshold of The final day So let a thousand plagues last A thousand years As we dim the lights of A thousand worlds Lifeless light of the void, Shining like a dead star Lifeless light of the void Shining... Lifeless light of the void, Shining like a dead star Lifeless light of the void Shining...  

2. Genesis Undone 04:22

  And all that was bleak and cold

And all that was laid to waste

A lifeless symbol among the ruins

Genesis undone

As ashes came falling from the sky

So came radiation from below

As thrones turned to dust on

The lifeless planes

As ruins crumbled and voices silenced

A dead light to light a dead age

Contamination fueling the puppets

As plague amongst tribes

Glorious days of wrath

That which you held highest

Brought you down to the fall

The air now suffocates

Our idols turned to dust

A hopeless monument

Standing amongst the ruins

And all that was bleak and cold

And all that was laid to waste

A lifeless symbol among the ruins

Genesis undone

3. Dust of Time 05:47

From the rotten pool of origin I raise as hope fell to the ground Staring at God's chosen creation Crawling around like maggots As parasites that need a host Like junkies that need a fix While rats will eat each other To undo the creation Oblivion - A thousand bitter days While the dust of time heals nothing Oblivion - Fucked in this trap We can't escape this spiral I am the wounds that scarred you I will be your eyes to see decay I am the mouth through which you speak The unclean prayers that end it all Oblivion - A thousand bitter days While the dust of time heals nothing Oblivion - Fucked in this trap We can't escape this spiral The dust of time heals nothing We're fucked in this trap   

4. Within the Maze 04:09

Trapped within the maze of their times Under the sign of a broken cycle At the end of the day It is always the same Forever fighting an uphill battle Lost chances, lost hope, lost sight Buried under dust, guilt and shame Painted layers over dirt Our gods are forgotten Promises turn to ruins Our empires turn to ruins Forever fighting for a futile cause Lost chances, lost hope, lost sight...  

5. Hollow Void 04:57

 The hollow void -

A new light is shining

A cloud of pestilence to blind the skies

Filling space where no light reaches in and

Cursed are the fruits of the earth

The hollow void

A maze without end

There is no escaping this maze

You created your own path to the fall

There is no getting out of the spiral

There is no chance to break the chains

The hollow void

A maze without end

Each step another mistake

Each rise a new fall

Every breath another waste

A monument to your failures

I will be your eyes to see despair

Puncture your ears to reach within

I will let you face your misery

As a living, breathing monument

6. The Highest Fall 05:18

   Looking for salvation in

The lowest of lights

Ascending to the skies to

Reach the highest fall

Bitter and disgusted we look

At this world

Until it all disappears

Into nothingness

Crawling - alive like worms

Drowning - in rivers of decay

I rise from the stench

Disgusted by this mass of flesh

Crawling - alive like worms

Drowning - in rivers of decay

A scorched lungs prayer

A veneration of pestilence

7. Kingdoms Scorched 04:54

   Cast into the pit of horrors -

No solace for the wretched

Your wounds will not be healed -

Passivity rendered you to ash

Blood and bile come from your torso -

Your limbs are torn

your impotent God failed you -

Your Eden laid to waste

Look at your kingdoms scorched

Look at the flames!

Witness your kingdoms scorched

Witness the fall!

There is no solace for the wretched

There is only damnation

Pure in filth!

A new light is shining

This is the sphere of sacrifice

Sanity leaves in

The blink of an eye

Now is the next aeon,

Now is chaos

There is no solace for the wretched

There is only damnation

8. Veneration 04:39

And shadows filled the vast abyss A hollow monument of your failures You happily swallowed the bile And clawed your way up to reach the fall A veneration - spirits of plagues A shadow over fields of despair Drowning in a river of decay you happily swallowed it all Floating around in ecstasy Consumed your way down to the fall There was nothing left for you There was no one left for you There was nothing left to strive for There is only the black hole A veneration - spirits of plagues A shadow over fields of despair  

9. Corruption Rejoice 05:50

 Let us rejoice int eh corruption of the earth

Burning under the golden wings of death

Cleanse me now and drown my lungs

Stab me and remove the putrid flesh

For I amt eh rot of the world

The mirror image you won't see

Shining in filth and light

Created in the image of man

Burn in me, treacherous God

Corrupt the seed and shine your light

Burn in me, treacherous God

Corrupting the seeds and sons of light

Undone! all the miracles

Of the world undone!

The heights to which we rose

The negative pulse of worthless night

Corrupting the seeds and sons of light

For I am the rot of the world

The mirror image you wont' see

Shining in filth and light

Created in the image of man

Rejoice in corruption

Rejoice! Rejoice!

PROCREATE INVERSE (2022)

Segunda entrega para este trío estadounidense con un sonido potente de black metal que no renuncia a influencias death a lo largo del mismo. Un álbum que a pesar de su descarga abrasiva de sonido y de su más de cincuenta minutos de duración, se muestra conciso en cuanto a su propuesta al tiempo que nos ofrece acertados arreglos, llámense cambios de ritmo o influencias de diferentes estilos, para resultar del todo dinámico. Con un binomio ganador si hablamos de guitarra y batería, capaces de ejercer un ritmo potente y rápido una y un vertiente árida y directa la otra, nos da una idea de la agresividad y la carga de vinolencia presente a lo largo de todo el álbum, haciendo muchas veces aparición las influencias de un black7deah metal que podemos, por que no, situarlo a la altura de los clásico de género. Ni que decir tiene que el sonido se muestra del todo compacto, con una carga de oscuridad y desazón presente a lo largo de todo el álbum, solo alterada por elementos recuerdan a estructuras más primitivas unas veces, como si una ola de punk acabar por sembrar el caos todavía más en medio de la masa de agresividad, odio y oscuridad que trasmite el álbum desde el inicio. No podemos olvidarnos de las voces, que sin mostrar una faceta muy elaborada, si que muestran por otra parte un plano repleto de rabia y violencia, con un componente de crudeza  presente a lo largo de todo el álbum, al tiempo que no debemos dejar pasar por alto influencias death en su propuesta. Un álbum que parece querer hacer honor al nombre de la banda, arrasando desde el inicio con todo lo que encuentra a su paso, sin ningún tipo de fisuras, haciendo una virtud de esa línea continuista a la hora de sonar desgarrador, destructivo y directo. (8,3).

3. Serpentious Flames 04:59

  Damned, the earth

Tidal remains

Take them again

Tenor of the dead

Cleanse everything

Chance of humankind

Terminally halved

Time cleaver

Blade the enslaved for the cradle reaper

Terror from a blade, shattering kin

Taste of the unwilling’s bloodletting scythe

Always only take with a knife

Always only cut with a scythe

Always only embrace inverted sign

Unleash hell wrath, burn holy site

Always only take when eating their own kind

Dominant summoning death

Fist is end

Unleash game of dark vortices

Unleash ugly dark pointed scythe

Unleash hell is our killing rite

Opening wounds in dark trees

It’s harvest time, weaklings

Arid secrecy

Fucking the mouth of the slithering

The whole disdained

Pure mechanic hate

Outright genes extinct

Count the house abandoned

Gruesome exempt

Closer the time

Arrive, depleted son

Conjuring predator revenant

Breathe the blistered

Cutting with dark and endless

Serpentious flames

Temper their cries with massacre

Bleed the sick

Foul negating breath

Rape

Rape of the cold mind

Just as the raven

Chooses the dove blood

Cursed desolation

Cull

Disevolve life

Chasing ever ending

This is your tomb, worm

Now know I, bray the reaper

4. Eradic Hate 07:23

  Severing the great chain of being

Behold festered death of feeble stain

I always cast away his spine

The carrion semen stain

Child pleads for ecstasy

Take your life to be deceived, again and again

Try to unsee the beast within you

Succumb, you leech, to the way of all flesh

All

Death

Whorror

Kill

Life

Tell me, tell me sick son

Fucking sickening, sorry, so make me die

Devouring me

For weak stead

As long as they’re dead

Die, with salt, disevolve

Death tangled in time

To reap and sow the seed of dissolution manifested

It takes the time and wrath, time and wrath and rotted doom

Cremate the world again, see your world in tidal war

And when the bomb ignites daggers splinter unto you

And when the diamond blade lacerates your tongue in two

And when your tongue is tied, silence overtakes

Dagger and chain

Glisten, glowering scythe

A procreation, sodom reborn

The viscerid absurd lie

The tip of spears that are committed to your pure extinction

To reap and sow the seed of dissolution manifest

Cremate the world again, emblazing worlds in total war

It takes the time and wrath, time and wrath and sin

Dagger and chain

Glisten, glowering scythe

A procreation, sodom reborn

Belligerent burning stye

Chaosity chains eternity above all time

Chaosity, chains of constancy

Authority, chaosity

Savoring form the death

Will you accept the token of time?

Theoretic acts of the dragon

You know the devil is down

Demon is now the dragon

Chains of being are all filicide

Demons are never ending

Do you exude time?

Time scythe

Flensing

Derelict terrorist ties

Sorting from the tower

Fragmentation dominate

Lusting forth unlife

Phantom

And so we plan erratic hate

Bloodied only eye

Dream time

Daylight

Dies, dig

Victims throngs of the populous grave

Exterminate the paradigm

Yearning to realize

Guise

Down

Blunt

Splattering ovaries

Time

Has

Come

Filicide

Daylight fades aside

Your blood, eternity’s mistake

I always stroke upon the spire

And with each one spoiling the seed

5. Procreate Inverse 15:59

Time

Turn

Death

Bloom

So lay beaten

Who ripped apart rabid flesh

Whose teeth are molten and scaled

A molten earth ignites

A reaper

A kill

A maker

A deed

Voyeur god, void of light

Born of the god and the burning sea

I only know thee, the murder god

Allow me to let the blood

To lay victim of

The raping life, the human seed

The gashes ripped across your neck

Severing ties, the end of all life

A reaper

A treason

A maker

A deed

Voyeur god, void of light

Born of the god and the burning sea

I only know thee, the murder god

Allow me to lick the blood

Daylight, turn

Tally the scattering

Daylight’s cursed reign

Touch down to exterminate

Die out with distain

Terror of obscurer reign

Anal fissures raped

Beholding the ash of day

Till the son is dead

Blood

Blood waves crashing, cleaving violator

See this wound is blown into oblivion

Wrung out of the cloth and evaporated

Chains of your being, stretched into oblivion

Pyre of the vastness

A violator known

Wheel of all lifetime

Rotted throne of bone

Dagger binding

Gone begotten lambs

Victims of the sword

Ruin ruined but whole

Dilated cavern, a void open wide

A dark energy for lust devouring festered eyes

Dilated crater of design

Pious rape, die parasite

Exsanguinate flesh

Sacrament of total rot

Procreate inverse

Life entombed

Light consumed

Eternity, erratic hate

Decimation from the wreak of the fucking whole

THE SEVEN (2022)

Séptimo álbum para esta formación germana, con un amplio bagaje a sus espaldas desde finales de siglo pasado, aunque se nos presenta con una formación remozada que ha sabido estar a la altura del pasado con un álbum más que interesantes que pone fina un periodo de silencio de ocho años, con separación de por medio. Este "The Seven" es un trabajo que logra fundir en su sonido elementos que Agathodaimon habían ido perdiendo con el paso de los años, como puede ser el gusto por elementos sinfónicos, elementos por otra parte definitorios del sonido de la banda antaño gracias a la forma de tratarlos en su música, alejados de extremismos y de golpes sinfónicos para traernos secciones más contemplativas y atmosféricas que muchas veces se pueden tildar de metal gótico. Así mismo, este nuevo trabajo recupera cierta rugosidad o crudeza en su sonido, ganando mayor presencia en el conjunto y acercando su sonido otra vez a los primeros álbumes de la banda. Todo esta nos deja un álbum de sonido ampuloso, con secciones cuidadas al detalle en pos de un sonido muy disfrutable, en donde las secciones más relajadas y limpias conservan un espíritu trasgresor en su interior en forma de oscuridad, dualidad este presente a lo largo de todo el álbum, con un sonido que logra dibujar un ambiente casi gótico, pero en donde hay cabida para secciones de ocultismo, ofreciendo un sonido completo y rico en matices, compacto cuando cobra velocidad, con acercamientos a terrenos más extremos, con el gusto por la incorporación de secciones digamos que más góticas, que contribuyen a crear una ambiente más preciosista y oscuro, a la par que la dualidad de voces agresiva y otras más limpias, así como ciertos pasajes más limpios terminan por completar el sonido de un álbum ampuloso. potente, completo y muchas veces con sectores que se vuelven inmersivos.

SUMMONING THE LAWLESS LEGIONS (2022)

Segunda entrega para este quinteto turco que a groso modo podemos describir como de sonido black/death. Un álbum que desde sus comienzos suena directo, lleno de rabia y con un ritmo bastante alto, ofreciendo unos implacables blast-beats que sirven como sustento para un sonido casi que atronador. El trabajo de guitarras se muestra efectivo en cuanto a ofrecer un buen número de riffs, repletos de crudeza, buscando sus influencias principales tanto en sonidos death como thrash, sin renunciar en ningún caso a un aporte de cierta melodía, que a veces se adentra por lo podríamos interpretar como sonidos orientales en mayor o menor medida. Las voces están en consonancia con la propuesta black/death de su música, agresivas y directas, mostrándose mucho más dinámicas, casi que evocadoras, quizá con un tono mayor de oscuridad, en las secciones en donde la velocidad se reduce y propicia un ambiente más contemplativo. El álbum no renuncia en ningún momento a un alto ritmo, con un muro de sonido que muchas veces ejerce de rodillo, pero es cierto también, que la inclusión de secciones más limpias en donde la música fluye sin voces, logran crear un sonido con cierto aroma oriental, que supone un echo diferenciador en el resultado final del álbum. (7,6).

1. As the Serpents Ascend 07:15

Bring the light of consciousness, thy gates had to be opened Under the moon of the wise, entrance to the unholy slumbers Beneath the blackened seas which elder ones take breath Their primal strength summons, the lords of Shammash Resided in the fixed stars, infernal serpent's pride Burnt embers of the fire, splendor of the unholy light Angels of the violence, angels of the sea Adversarial light seized their spirits Gates of the spheres, gates of the abyss Opened by 7 seals which possessed the kings Lead the path towards the wisdom of pride Lead to disobedience to great temple law Yet empowers the serpent of daemonic spirit For Samael and Lilith awakened by Leviathan Illuminated serpent guided for Gehenna Who flashed with fire, defiled with blood Mother of demons encircled in darkness Until the essence of the morning light Expose the false righteousness Let its grace and ostentation be cast aside And through the dawn raised impious war Against the monarchy of the proud god Follow the footsteps of Shaitan! Get the commands Al-Fahsha & Al-Munkar Greet the dawn with open eye In reverence and indulgence, chant his name! Elder gods, the forerunner of the baneful storm The exaltation beholds them shall perish Authority was given as the rebellious power Let them raging, and spitting the hatred As the serpents ascend! As the serpents ascend! As the serpents ascend! As the serpents ascend! Bring the light of consciousness, thy gates had to be opened Under the moon of the wise, entrance to the unholy slumbers   

2. Thou Abyssic Fire in Rebellion 07:27

Rising! upon the impious throne Invoking! the rebellious force When the depths of hades shine forth A great call to Archon's blackened wisdoms Which also present the seductive spells In honor of his mighty chief demons And ruled the consciousness With seven destructive powers Thus became infernal spirit Deceitful slavery of the black gods ceases And those trapped forever in reptile form They dominate the minds with their essence Of fire which scourges the worlds They do not allow the bliss of ignorance To penetrate into instinctual knowledge Ancient oaths are whispered to rekindle Their illuminating flames of vengeance No chains shall bind their adversarial spirit Even the blinded light which enslaved all Arrogance and pride in draconian eyes Blow the winds of beast-like desires Abyss and chaos which devoured all That also swallow the chthonic realms Arise and inspire! hearken to your sight! Empower the circle! and lawless spirits! Eternal hunger hails masculine fever Hunger for flesh, hunger for charms Yet also disguised as sexual serpent That wishes to curse the impotent creation   

3. Adorned in Primeval Seas 07:07

  Embracing the somber waters held inside the four winds

In the midst of that immensity, the storm chariot shines

Torn apart by strength and filter of Araphel

A vesica piscis appeared, blackened fire held

That calls the forenames of primeval dynasts

For they sent forth to gather all together

This arrival shatters the entire frame

Their silhouettes reflect once again

Foaming the waves of ancient depths

Led to a vortex inside the firmament

Its framework exploded and merged with oceans

Its purifying streams choke the transgressions

Washed with impurity! adorned in primeval seas!

Washed with impurity! adorned in primeval seas!

Let the dragon of chaos divide the waters from the dark waters

Beasts seal the lawless gate, and marshal under its single head

Thus the floods of a prooving struggle drown the cherished seeds of creation

For the race of Iblis, the slander extinguished the vast light of presence

They were dazzling oceans personified, shaped its crystallized ornate throne

Adorned for satan! tehom! tehom! tehom!

Serpens antiquus et dominabitur a mari usque ad mare

Et a flumine usque ad terminos terrae

4. Circle of the Spirit Devourers 08:23

A blazing vengeance awakened the seven kings Who had tarnished the deity and blind faith Their claws tear the Empyrean spirits Their eyes burn as blackened pits Their mouths blow the ancient breath As sorcerers who invoke the wrath As destroyers who engulf the stars As harassors who defile the angels Thus shining circle is reborn within the promised chaos Containing cosmic altars where angels are victimized Attracting the hot sands of the vast deserts in Dudael And blowing the huge and jagged rocks to release Azazel Circulus, cujus centrum diabolus! Spinning faster than light, gathering all daemonic gods In each quarter there are dungeons built by beast kings When lustful pyre depletes the solar Holy realms vanish into the rituals Adorned with the flesh of goddess Azazel exalts the primal hungers A collision with essence of darkness No light left for purification Seraphim fall into the inner circle Absorbed by the spirit devourers The severe thearchia has withered Doomed to fall into deep slumber Succumbed to its own arrogance Absorbed by the spirit devourers   

5. The Blazing Spheres 07:40

The mind of the superior kings dominate the cluster of snakes Deafening whispers of descending talismans, and the rivers flare The gates of impurity, which lead to the directions of suffering Open up with blinding gleams In tubes, fetuses yell the anguish sounds to the principal angels For a preliminary purification in the spheres of desperation Blessed with hallucinogic elixir as they were born in non-time ages Spawned from the seeds of fire god Thus children plagued with pain in the celestial abyss They spit the lullabies of ancient incantations Vehemence of the scorching storms inside their spheres Desolation never gives up imprisonment, thy spells rise From darkly curtained halls into the caverns of wastelands Those are covered with blue, poisonous jewels and spines Forlorn mistress of the circle embraced spheric daughters Forlorn queens of suffering screamed at their presence Forlorn servants are chained below the seas of cavities Forlorn goddess of grief dances on seven storeyed mountains Their pestiferous ashes from these sealed and falling planets Blended in the defeater of chaos, swimming in its masculine flames cCusters outside the cosmos were scattered Blinding light emanates where the stars merged From a dread mouth in the center of exaltation Emergence of desolation, anguish and sinfulness Thy conqueror rises up for the seven spheres! Thy majesty devours their planetary bodies!

TRESPASSER (2022)

Tercer larga duración para los canadienses, que nos ofrecen un sonido que difiere enormemente de los estándares que podemos presuponer como black metal, para sumergirnos en un sonido poblado de un buen número de arreglos, unos de tintes electrónicos, otros góticos o progresivos, todo ello encaminado a crear una atmosfera oscura y fría, incluso siniestra, que nos sorprende con acertados cambios de registro y elaboradas arreglos de teclado para enfatizar secciones e soledad o inquietud. Uno puede quedarse con la sensación de que el álbum no acaba de arrancar del todo, pero una vez somos conscientes de que no estamos ante un álbum al uso, podemos comenzar a dejarnos atrapar por un sonido que muchas veces se torna inmersivo y en donde hay cabida para diferentes estilos y secciones experimentales, estas últimas presentes en forma de texturas que van haciendo acto de presencia a lo largo de los temas de manera espontanea y que no nos dejan indiferentes, al tiempo que ciertas disonancias también hacen acto de aparición a lo largo del álbum. El ritmo se tonar muchas veces lento y pastoso, teniendo de alguna forma al doom presente en ciertas estructuras, pero sin llegar a explotar del todo, aunque ese ritmo cadencioso logra fundirse con unos riffs que encierran oscuras melodías, completados con arreglos de teclados encargados de ofrecer un sonido por momentos inquietante y que cuando menos logra atraparnos en su particularidades. Las voces optan también por un ritmo pausado, ofreciendo una vertiente densa, profunda y rasgada que contribuye al ambiente de padecimiento que rodea el sonido del álbum. Atmosfera opresiva por momentos, rodeada de un ritmo lento y cadencioso, salpicada con algunos arreglos de teclado, con ciertos arrebatos encaminados a sonidos más puros dentro del black, para completar un álbum de metal extremo.

The world turns in a toxic bed of fear, restless for blood Where belief is the only truth that sharpens the heart With scars that rain from within them, conscripting daughter and son Ensnared in malicious collusion, too bound for thought As fountains of cowardice clamour for annihilation Further profit, tightened control necrotic distrust… A dream - a demon of this place - standing before, shrouded in hatred Reeking of death and blessing the dawn All life is revolting in the spirit of Lucifer Bow down, kill or be conquered - none remain indifferent No lies shall be questioned, no seditious inference From the corpses abound laid pale, to the dying breath Behold the flayed, gilded horizon and bathe in its symphony of dire richness Ripping the face clean to the skull A violence forgotten… how sweet the taste For the garden of gore must be rightfully quenched, as It Demands   

2. Angel Dust 05:28

Fate bleeds on the steeps of nigh

False kings chosen by birthrite

Prey upon the souls of light

To become their dominion

Submerge divide and malign

A brutish reign cursed with the will

To die

Death hides beneath the lie,

In wait to dine on the carcass

Day grieves the night’s divide,

Longing to reverse the first light

Day grieves at the night’s divide,

Sorely forever falling

Fate bleeds in a mess of yarn,

Hearts quake with fervent derision

Entwined in chaos to tremble

Before the wake

Receive the sweet breath of deliverance,

And anoint the void

Angel of evulsion, come forth

with a sharpened strength

and be done with this

3. Cheirotonia 05:15

  Cowering before its brilliance

A blessing drawn from blood visions

With eyes wide and arms outstretched

Cowering from a conclusion -

An insight to despair

That colours the world red

With vicious passion

Let faith deliver a world gripped in spite

of the highest strength

and let the face of God

flash with twitching candor

And it won't let me down

lead by the blight of slain

and carried by whispers

I'm held on the winds that rake

the corpse of time

beyond the fallen

and it won't let me down…

piercing dissent within your hearts

from the maze above and between the sky

unto the monument

surrendered

To be dredged

dredged along the graves of the holy

caught in the nets of negation

blinded by consequence

Lifted higher as skies give way

like snapping tendons no longer upheld

by the grace of deceit

Stolen by shadows

and they won't let me down!

Filling dissent within your hearts -

from the maze above

and between the sky unto the monument

surrendered

4. Phantom 04:58

 Cut me loose

Spilling from archaic wounds

the ill-festered impression

that grew beyond the fog of stars

stirring in feral hatred

Cut me loose,

primal awaken the conflict

Internal combustion of

the holy self-messiah

Staring down a foreign dream

that hangs above as it claws at me

The scars that form, a single word

branded in blazing repetition:

COLD

So cut me loose

Crawling these lakebeds to choke

whatever virtue is left above

Withering in the driest heat,

but not alone so cut me loose

Spilling from archaic wounds

that stir in feral hatred

A bitter conception sent for us,

sent from the foreign host

5. Trespasser 05:15

Alone along the winding rows the dark blooms of september nod in pallor, shades of fleeting vibrance Like a shifting gaze, twisting from the light poised in suspicion A dissonance has broken through the ranks like a feverdream; Everything’s alive and it seeks to destroy Searching for any means to reach a form The call goes out - the trespasser must be found Alone along the winding rows the dark blooms of september nod in pallor, shades of fleeting vibrance like a shifting gaze, twisting from the light Held in the eerie stillness No mouth to speak or scream, no breath A manifold of eyes survey; everything's alive and it seeks to replace Hunting for any means to be the scorn Stalked through the dark, the trespasser has been marked To be beaten, to be erased Sacrificed on the grave of judgement To be beaten to be consumed and left to rot in the bowels of justice 

6. In the Cold Light of Dawn 04:27

Reaching for the light but the devil wants in Caught in the dirge back in a colourless dream On the cold white breast, on the serpent lips, on the barren skin, falling shadows Reaching for the light but the devil wants in Smoked filled rooms Conjuring plague Gather the weary, Gather the lost To lead them further astray And alone In the cold light of dawn, In the eyes of a snake, In the breaking of skin, Falling shadows Reaching for the light but the devil wants in On the altar of birthblood caressing the babe Reaching for the light but the devil wants in Into the halls of senility, a strangulation wrapped in silence  

7. Alone with You 05:12

  Bathed in deathlight

lays a fever dream

Soaked in the panic,

glorified by the screams

And as it came to wrest

all life into the rabid void,

the lovers, blessed to tremble,

destroy themselves

with obscene arousal

Divine desecration

The beating of the wanton harlot

Splayed and begging

Laden with sorrow,

flesh eaten through

Calling out

to be with you

Buried dreams'

burrowed paths intrude

through walls of somber

to be with you

Dead feeling

followed by chasing truth

In the hour of souls

to be with you

Spectre of grieving,

hand down a knowledge due

Held to remain

alone with you

Before the purpose,

beyond the grave

A rite of wounds

has given life

through pain

Before the horror,

beyond the grace

Disembodied from what is left,

left bleeding

(divine) Before the purpose,

(desecration) beyond the grave

A pulse of death

has taken life

in the flesh of a heart still beating

(divine) Before the horror,

(desecration) beyond the grace

And reaching in to be freed

from the wells and the gallows

8. All Which Can Burn 06:18

A vain pursuit approaching the altar but what you came to find is no longer there In the cascade of delirious prayer All which can burn or be lead to fail chase the cadence of the immaculate Wonder and fear An endless euphoric ascent to golden highs, the ultimate perfection of death Profane coalescence the worms will find a way Crept in this illusion, become as one in pitch Synchronic emanation fed through the stoney gaze of the blurring folds Reveal your carnal riddles Left with nothing Confusion compacts to form A sickle of misgiven faith Fateful and parted A vain pursuit approaching the altar, but what you came to find was no longer there In the cascade of delirious prayer All which can burn or be lead to fail Chase the cadence of the immaculate arcane wonder and fear An endless euphoric ascent to golden highs, the ultimate perfection of death
