Every synapse fires in acceptance of a distant truth
My concept of self, pulled out at the roots
A frail voice inside my mind
Begs for release
Twisting inside of me
The smallest fractures in my body lead to collapse
Falter underneath the impact of careless steps
Pieces of my life defined by loss and regret
Returning moments and recurring thoughts
In a twist of fate
Whispers grow
And cut their way out of my skull
Threatened by the memories
of who i used to be
I search inside myself
And find an empty space
Where peace should rest
Trapped in a dream
I’d give anything to forget
I count the days as they pass
Retreated from the coldest stares
Self descending as i turn my back, Consuming any light
This wild 35-track all-metal benefit album features Mare Cognitum, Panopticon, and more reinventing songs by Tori Amos & others. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 3, 2020
Even for this genre the sheer intensity of this album always manages to floor me. Might not be the most unique album under the sun but it doesn't have to be; the performances are tight and ferocious, the songwriting is dynamic and explosive, the production is crushing, it's just all things to a mathcore fan. napalmsatan
