lyrics
Outcast, waste men
ever unravelling twine
splitting as vines, those tendrils that reach...
Brought at end before the all-crafter
its likeness yet a wordless thought
a final quandary...
What malice sent us on cruel currents
to be eremite among the stars?
And our far-fathers, like us in stance
yet entombed in depths of dirt?
"Many are beneath you, many more ascend
Not in error, each an eyeblink in our everbeing"
"You have innerseeing of the fore, yet not the after.
Accepting your ordained and steadfast deterioration,
yet darkened the site of unmaking."
Ever stabbing at nihil
lithe and piercing our shape
opposite that the molder's
its thin mask of contempt, unconcealing nithe.
"Outsight, insight, curses alike
I placed you in a house of spite
to forever seek, yet drift from truth in seeking"
Grasping the "fathers" awl,
which once belit our hollow amidst the dark
two punctures I make, to undo their gift.
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
Otherworldly psychedelic guitar tone of wah-wah melo-riffing shines here. Unique sound. Unique avant-blackened-death band. Must have... Along with Veilburner - the best bands in genre Dmitry Nevozhay
An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
Suffocating black metal in the Swedish style that mercifully throws in a bit of melody to save the listener from total darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 29, 2017
Tempering death metal riffs with goth rock melodies, the Finnish outfit deliver a commendable, unsuspectingly catchy slab of fury. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 29, 2023
This is my favorite album by Mexican death metal stalwarts The Chasm, by a wide margin. All the meandering, proggy excursions of previous releases have been brutally curtailed in favor of mountains on mountains of riffs, and the result is a release that is tighter and more focused than any of their output in the last decade+.
Consider my interest renewed. Patiently awaiting the next one. Ghuughra
