Out of ordinary perception
Mortal words appear animal
Obsessed: fixated on survival
Notions that languish in the folds
Inhuman worlds are shaken
A few timeless hours - outer inner realms
Directly apprehended, unconditionally
This experience is mine
Boredom - what's your excuse?
So shaped in the hearths our lives
Your eyes through others
For a beat out of time
You listen
Through fields of the world every night
The implacable voice of unreason
Of the same alien doubt
Enduring, demonic, human
Possessed
It speaks
Disturbs me
Open my eyes
Feel the absurd spectre
Examine
Thoughts of one's own death - of demise
That will not be mentioned
Fear - prepare to re-enter
Tectonic shifting sum
Fleeting
Fever reeling - turning higher
Persistence of false memory
Stare us into the deep dark void
Un-constricting reality
Fed on the ashes of what I thought was a lie
Fevered
Pre-scient illusion struggling
Infused with meaning beyond reach
Sublime the catharsis required
Feeding the illusion
Keep the mind away
From what mattered
Until there was no difference
Between laughter and weeping
Between the nodes of his chain
Of desperate moments
Between laughter and weeping
More real than the sun

No will to live, Dream, defy
Loathsome husk
Of what I thought I knew - shadow
A shell
Churned with dread - abject beast
Expunged, thrown
From Moloch passed down - spurious
Into a tomb of existence - delirious
Aching out for you
Always, always
Always been another
Slowly climb
Cycle into the spiral
From despair into mania
The end you'll never
I've achieved that high
Feeding the beasts of time
See through darkness shine
I'm boiling inside of you
With all my strength I struck
And felt the blow
Craving for life
Surging scheming
From birth until your death
Moloch turns fertile futile
Far too close to your contempt
Passed down, grotesque
What you hid so well
Legacy of the absent God
Founder abandoned
To the medium you'll grow
To kill for you
Always been - always been another
Part of you
Fantasy that you don't know
Reckless, reckless
Reckless
Find the answer to these prayers
Learn in the fire
Realising what was said
Edges me further
Moving on from where you failed
When you should have died

Outside

This evil burns me up, consumes me
Swallows me whole
And destroys the light that
Makes everything pure
Outside
A weeping echo of hate soon fades
Amongst the crumbling ruins
Of my shattered coherence
Bleeding, slowly churning onwards
Nightmares unbind
The turning threads of life
Demise of an identity
Moulting into obscure, tortuous convolutions
Locking into me
Throughout my chemistry
This wrath just waiting
Eager to devour
Outside
My saddened soul is noticing
Decay and carelessness
Ploughing wrinkles into the face
Of humanity
Turning
Turning all true will to age
Turning all will to destruction
As we all indulge in one last dance
Towards extinction
Sweet melancholy madness still finds
A tragic beauty to this decaying ensemble
As I reminisce upon the fallen beauty of the past
Its feelings fallen forever
To the starving void of time
Outside

Mirror-Image Ritual
04:38
|

|
I'm becoming further distracted from a view
As if I were ensconced in an evil dream
A prisoner of the accurate articulate inherent
Deceptive
Limitations of reasoning
So - you foster doubt
As to who you are what it's about
Where we came from
What if this is it?
This parody of the human spirit
We follow through
Aghast in the machine
Trapped in the semblance of a dream
Of what he took
Transcendental religious experience
Examine the precarious sutures of reality
When you enter the prison of the mind
The same world and again you will be
Wilful spurious yearning for another
Alien distortion possessing the body
Witness the voice in abhorrent dimensions
Subdue and transform obscene agency
The toll of pain endure the face
In time's illusion
Entranced in future visions bleak
Their blade scars echoes in our sleep
Remember as you enter
Into the age of affliction
The purpose of the will
Is to triumph in adversity
Ritual
Of the mirror image
Of the mirror act
Of the mirror of man

Made Of Beasts

Building the future with our fists and hate
Disturbed by talking heads that speak for us
Enter the brave new age of the martyr
Cabled, televised
Frontiers of civilisations
And arena disappear
In an era of the unfettered voyeur
The clamour crows
Cowards
Determined
Intrusive
To defile
Desensitised by neural lords of mass isolation
Wielding power without control
Surrender to an insidious apathy
Sex class racial savagery
Of cruel and ridicule
Slaughter of man
Honoured time and time again
Skin tout over bones
Of agony
The lie
The churning of the mind
Infuse the I
Ready to create or perpetrate
The new totalitarian ideals
Perpetuated myth will die
Just like any other meme
Made of beasts

Fire - Combustion: a process, a weapon, and a tool
Hate - the angst that brings my blood to boil
The refuge and agony of fools
Termination of lucidity
Poisoning everything
Regression
Turning to the sign of the cross
Frightened delusion of sanctity
Burning the sign of the cross
Heightened illusion of superiority
In you - soon entomb
Betrayal of traits that unify
Betrayal of giving in
For god to even your scores
To a sadistic suffering
Icon of flesh
What if your crime
Polluting innocent minds
Reached another low?
Are you too idle or too thick to deal
With the complexities of what is real?
Ill? Insane?
Vomiting memes:
Gangrene of the mind
Screaming for a beyond
So desolate within
Petrified to the core
Staring into the illusion
Screaming for a beyond
Desperate, never giving in
Incoherent
Bleed for the infinite mercy of god
In the staring faces of those who died
In the faces of dead
Icons of flesh

A Wound That Never Heals
05:32
|

|
Mire of slime
Cancerous purulent goitre
Malnourished souls
Festering pustule lingering sore
Tired of hysterical dream
Of what this all could mean
Gather relish the death
Remaining secrets never kept
Oblivious to what is yet
Future sentience bitterness
Slogans stridently
Out of the grotesque concrete
Boiling blaring
Heinous and total war
Polarise tyrannise
Hone your ideology
No place for doubt or hesitation
Only global holocaust can appease this monster
Shacking unimaginable truth replaces reality
Disguised in the guise of justice
Holy war is the new rock'n'roll
Nazis, feminists
Extremely catholics
Haredim, panthers and homicide brothers
Right/left-wing lawyers
Funded capitalists
Gay righteous activists
Newspeak communists
Fascists, crypto-fascists, neo-fascists
Atheists, creationists
Bible-bashing cartoonists
Ready for the war grinder
All throw their oil on the fire
Nobody gives their life for a cause
It is torn away
Torn
Echoing through desolate ruins
Of recurring nightmares
After the fact no one cares
For the children of this world of hate

I call a saviour to fight
And make sense of me
I've run out of reason
The amber flickers
All the years I've only seen this way
Roaring hearts in the fire of what might have been
I am not worthless - this is not
A cry for help
Nor is it a phase
I am going through
It's freezing inside
What am I doing?
Who are you here for?
Why are we dying?
Where were we?
All my life I've had this void to fill
Blended in with the clouds or buried within
Vain attempts to fight the entropy
Gleaming all of the fire of might yet be
It matters not
If it lasts
Only for an instant
As real as we will ever be
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep with me

DEATH'S TOLL

Death Metal - the osdm way. No messing about. Done properly. Without cutting corners. Getting up at daybreak to go to the riffmine and not coming back until after tea.

A incredibly unique experience. A harmonious mixture of harsh and serene musical influences, manifesting itself into an incredibly solid album. Blackened Death Metal meets almost an Opeth clean vocal arrangement. Highly recommend.

Nel Nome Del Codice

The eerie grandeur of horror film pipe organ music gets an industrial lift on the latest killer from Keygen Church.
