lyrics

One twin grows, the other wilts. Ascension for the conscienceless .
That which fell deaf never occurred. Autobiographies from the ashes of stillborns.

So comfortably numb, contravention behind the curtain.
Unconscious, unrestricted and metastatic.
Invisible tears, bleach the faces of nameless victims.
Forgotten, voiceless benefactor of this tragedy…

…Those who dare resist the call of autophagy.
Appreciate the anomaly. Sentient commodity.

Serpents pour from eager throats. Venom for the lonely cup.
Marriage with the teeth of envy. Death throws from underneath ten meters of concrete.

This casket is cramped. Claustrophobic, asphyxiating.
I hunger for the flesh of those less deserving.
Suspended in blood, satiated and comatose.
My future blooms like mold from the corpses of my enemies…

…Those who dare resist the call of autophagy.
Appreciate the anomaly. Sentient commodity.

Acceleration. Our transformation.
Association flickering with the flies.
Leaking dreams of light warming their eyes.

Catalyze.

Live as you died, atrophied.
Suicide from within the womb.
Gasping runoff to feed the hive.
Unmatched hunger, verdant tomb.
Drowned in gloom.

The guilt would eat me whole, if I could raise it from the ocean floor.
Cultivating what’s better left unsaid, the darkest attainment of evolution.
Dissolution.

Scryers of the Ibis

supported by 5 fans who also own “Culling Ritual”

Terrifiant, ravageur, l'album vous en met plein la g... pendant plus d'1 heure. A ce titre, il est sans doute un peu trop long, et difficilement assimilable. Néanmoins, cela reste un très bon album sur le plan musical - mais j'avoue écouter très peu de tech-death... baudelagon

It's 2020 and it's been about a dozen years since I've had music make me feel this way. It's good, very good. Taking me back to the scene! Stephen Harrison

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego

Extremely heavy brutal technical death metal with a little deathcore touch to it. Fucking sick record! Andrej Romić
