lyrics
Rapid ascension, brought to fruition
At the expense of the lifeblood
On which we live and which we die
Omit today in delusion of tomorrow
While the dawns beyond seem too distant
To be worth our time
Paving the way on roads we cannot sustain
While we await their imminent collapse
Fading denial
It feels as though I have observed
Beyond the smoke and through the mirrors
To what's beyond, while yet we stand
Impeded by the resonance
Of tenacious, and ever-growing, white noise
Still, I wait for you
Forever beneath your tainted dreams
Praying for the day that you return
So we may then both heal together
Lead astray by sirens most unorthodox
Calling out to us by seductive melodies
Songs of gold and strengths incomprehensible
That entice us too close to the sun
Guitar Solo: Richard
Now as we step upon the stage
To raise the curtain to begin
The penultimate episodes
In a tale of disarray
Echoing cries fall denied
By they who would die
With their heads still in the sand
Still, I wait for you
Forever beneath your tainted dreams
Praying for the day that you return
So we may then both heal together

Hype is a funny thing. Usually when I hear everywhere "Dude this shit is 🔥" or even the dreaded and oft-used "AOTY!!" bullshit, I roll my eyes. And I rolled my eyes last year on the hype train for Carnosus. But again, for every thousandth breathless fanboy review I've seen, sometimes the album exceeds the expectation. So I will confidently tell you that, yes, "This shit is 🔥" as I wait for Willowtip to release that sweet Green Ghostly vinyl variant domestically 🤣 Finally a win for my wallet! bcb723

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
