A boot stamping on a face sets the scene
for reality openly obscene
Taught not to question the roles we are granted
quelling urges of thoughts any grander
But I guess that it's hard to see
the horizon of a sullied sea
when ocean's stirred and the current wrecks
and shallow waters cover necks
A manufactured permanent consent
A vision in two definitions
Did Fuller's Spaceship Earth crash and burn?
Was Imagine just a song?
Can currents change their paths?
Withered voices given strength
After being kept at length
- For tacit credence cause the end -
And only then may we ascend
Only reaching far behind
leads to rigid state of mind
It's never-questioned validity
borders on morbidity
So don't look back but fix your eyes
towards wherever change may lie
A vision reborn is means to end
But as of now we just pretend
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
The Italian hardcore group’s latest is a powerful, claustrophobic album that rarely lets up its mathy, metallic assault. Bandcamp Album of the Day Feb 6, 2018
