Guilt

As we were dragged
Out of torment
We both were still alive
Darkness was enough
To see you sleep
Like the dead
Fear poured in when
Night came to bury us alive
An empty, sea like sky
A weighted gaze
Tears through me
Darkness isn't enough
To obscure your convulsing grin
Cold creeps through my veins
Your Hell still watches over me
Each night a new abyss
every stomach turning

Weakness
09:45
|

|
A furtive glance at oppression
As we stumble to the slaughter-row
Our eyes towards the harvest
Like cattle yoked by light
Led wanton to the knife by faith
Scraped against each dull bone
This Cud of humanity
Gnashed against the teeth of our undoing
Led wanton to the knackers yard
Our marrow cast away
Crooked posture
Worn and unfit
To serve a cruel master
Gouge away at our mortal spine
Wringing out the last of us
In a passing glow
Our eyes towards the harvest
Like cattle yoked by light
Spreading of a diseased and buckled spine
Ringing out
The last of us
Bathing in the glow

Grave
10:33
|

|
We have dug
Too deep for solace
Feeling the earth
Swallow us whole
Soil settles around
Our deadened cries
Filling gaping mouths
Always wanting more
Death comes in weeping
Then goes laughing to itself
Back to slumber under that
Abandoned dwelling
We have dug
Too shallow to drown
Out the sorrows ringing
In our ears
Death comes in weeping
Then goes laughing to itself
Back to slumber under that
Abandoned dwelling
This Narrow House of Man

Punishment
09:05
|
|||
|
Born, neck in noose
Forced on your knees
And always asked for more
Your cursed image
Reflecting a wasted life
Just a bored excuse for
Self imposed punishment
Willfully wait
Under the brazen whip
Dragged in filth and
Torn like weeds to
Throw away and
Sow with salt
Death's a saving grace
From this polluted flesh
We call a monument

This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10

Wow, I just had to buy this. All three tracks are amazing, the sound is so full and encompassing, it just envelopes you. I have it playing in the studio when I'm making - it's the perfect album for that - energizing and inspiring.

Thick, grimy, sludgy riffs that will keep you headbanging. The bonus is that it's pay what you want. Dive in.
