I traverse these dark catacombs
littered with skeletal remains,
as I gaze upon the poor souls
who have come to meet with a terrible fate.
Does this same fate await?
Does this same fate await?
A grotesque monstrosity lurks in the shadows.
I can feel its presence stalking me.
A grotesque monstrosity lurks in the shadows.
I can feel its presence stalking my every movement.
Will the hunter snare its prey?
When the creature revealed itself
It was a nightmarish sight, indeed.
8 eyes, 8 legs!
The abomination let out a bone chilling shriek.
Struck with fear, my legs grew weak.
Before I could act I was caught in its web,
surely, this is how I end up dead!
Bound by silk as strong as steel
I dreaded the thought that I was its next meal.
Pincers piercing, mincing my flesh.
Pincers piercing, mincing my flesh.
This horrid beast shall feast until,
until there’s nothing left.
My skin grows necrotic, as I feel the narcotic coursing through my veins.
Paralyzed, yet still feel the pain.
The more I scream, the more it drains.
Screams echo these dark catacombs
littered with skeletal remains
as I hear a poor soul
who has come to meet with a terrible fate.
Does this same fate await?
Does this same fate await?
A grotesque monstrosity lurks in the shadows.
I feel its presence stalking me.

Labyrinth of the Mind
03:04
|
|||
|
The mystification of my cognizance
has begun, I am summoned to oblivion.
This dismal incantation induces
hypnosis,
psychosis.
Malicious is this practice of psychological
sorcery,
witchery.
Descending,
into abysmal darkness.
Hallucinations illuminate a pathway.
I now dwell
this metaphysical realm,
welcomed by
a myriad of horrors.
Doomed to a domain
of discarnate shadows,
condemned to walk the earth.
Bound and forsaken by time,
oh what treacheries lie
within the labyrinth of the mind.
Entrapment of oneself,
enchantment of my cortex.
Imprisonment.
Voices, disembodied
In this ghastly vortex.
The mystification of my cognizance
has begun. I am summoned to oblivion,
empire of eclipsed sun.
A self inflicted wound,
cast by my own hand,
festering within,
Imprisonment.
Doomed to a domain
of discarnate shadows,
condemned to walk the earth.
Oh, what treacheries lie inside
Within the labyrinth of the mind.
Of the mind.

Infernal Ascension
07:14
|
|||
|
Descending into the depths,
the deepest chasms of hell.
Into a wasteland of macabre and phantasm,
where the wicked dwell.
The burning of soot and sulfur fills my lungs.
An aroma of rot fills the thick, humid air.
The sound of screams and cries of despair
echo throughout the corridors of this infernal lair.
As a degenerate dedicated to a lifetime of debauchery,
it comes as to no surprise
that I am banished to the haven of heathens.
Necromancy, conjurings,
sacrificial offerings,
I initiate rituals of flesh.
Pain and pleasure, unholy endeavors.
I must confess this diabolical dominion,
I wish to possess.
I wish to possess.
Bow before me!
Your king to be.
All hail
the lord of fiends!
I forge through fire and brimstone,
to vanquish,
to conquer,
to claim my throne,
to overthrow his majesty, end his reign,
and rule over the land of eternal flame
The beasts they cower,
for they know their souls I shall devour.
Growing ever so omnipotent,
omnipotent!
Seething with boundless power!
Beckoned by the serpent,
at last my time has come
to ascend,
to transcend,
to become a god amongst man.
Beckoned by the serpent,
I shall heed its call.
My fate lies within these chamber walls.
The Demigod stands before me.
I rain down destruction, mercilessly
I cast thee down, with vengeance.
The deity, now dethroned.
Ascending from the depths,
the deepest chasms of hell.
From a wasteland of macabre and phantasm,
where the wicked once dwelled.
Let the hellfire ignite our will!
The blood of the righteous, we shall spill!
Abominations of the underworld, rise!
My Dark army, now mobilized.
Unleashing our wrath upon the earth,
my name, the heavens shall forever curse!

The Culling of Flesh
05:54
|
|||
|
The heavens illuminate,
vacant skies now reanimate,
with beings from beyond the cosmic veil.
From beyond the cosmic veil!
This is no act of divination,
but an intergalactic intervention!
An encounter,
An encounter of the fourth kind!
Detecting disturbances in radio wave frequencies.
Decipher encrypted messages of untold prophecies
of an ancient adversary that lay dormant for centuries.
Beams shine brilliantly like beacons,
cascading from the horizon.
Leviathan, the mothership
blots out the sun.
Like insects, they scatter.
There is no escaping the tractor beam’s pull.
Like insects, they scatter.
There is no escaping the tractor beam’s pull.
You now find yourself imprisoned in the hull,
the belly of the beast.
Like livestock, we are herded
into deprivation tanks.
Slowly arising from cryogenic slumber,
Slowly arise from cryogenic slumber,
unable to break free from your restraints.
Splayed upon the operating table,
let the experiments commence!
They used advanced technology and alchemy
to unlock secrets of the human anatomy.
to unlock secrets of the human anatomy.
Test subjects
poked and prodded,
probed, garroted.
Incised and cauterized!
Injected and dissected!
Mutilation!
Amputation!
Deformation!
Transmutation!
Genetically modified, DNA spliced.
No longer in human form.
Behold, a new creation is born!
Reconstructed for destruction,
with no will of my own,
Mind controlled!

Cerebral Spores
04:26
|
|||
|
Depraved delegates Indoctrinate
their vile, rhetoric of hate.
Will this odious sickness
ever cease to proliferate?
Spew words of malign,
intolerance, the blight of mankind.
Intolerance!
Spew words of malign,
the cancer has metastasized.
Metastasized!
A contagion of contempt,
contaminates the mind.
Submerged in a cesspool of rot and decay,
mongering fear and disarray.
Fueled by fabricated delusions of supremacy.
Fixated on the bloodlust,
Behold the carnage that ensues.
An insatiable appetite of annihilation,
eradication,
decimation,
domination!
Depraved delegates Indoctrinate
their vile rhetoric.
Will this odious sickness
ever cease to proliferate?
Rotten to the core,
spreading your cerebral spores.
Rotten to the core,
spreading your cerebral spores.
Secreting and breeding martyrs of the misinformed.
A contagion of contempt,
contaminates the mind.
This cancer has metastasized.
Metastasized!
Colonies of subhuman scum,
unleashing the pandemonium.
The onslaught has begun!
The onslaught has begun!
Colonies of subhuman scum,
unleashing the pandemonium
The onslaught has begun!
The onslaught has begun!

Starless Empyrean
09:00
|
|||
|
Darkness approaches,
luring the moonlight.
The still sky turns pale,
looming is eternal night.
The siren’s call is music to my ears.
She brings with her deliverance,
from all these lifeless years.
Carry me to endless somnolence.
Endless somnolence!
How I long for salvation
from this mortal coil.
How I long for salvation
from this mortal coil.
Bereft of this world,
enshrined beneath fertile soil.
My one and only desire,
to be laid to rest,
to be laid to rest upon the funeral pyre.
What has caused this abyssal fascination,
this grave infatuation?
This grave infatuation.
A force of nature I once feared,
now becomes something I yearn.
My one and only desire,
to be laid to rest,
upon the funeral pyre.
How I long for release
from this life, oh so bleak.
How I long for salvation, from this mortal coil.
Perhaps in the beauty of nihility,
I will soon find peace.
Carry me to endless somnolence.
The siren’s call is music to my ears.
She brings with her deliverance.
Adrift, beyond the ether,
beyond this earthly plane,
lies a realm devoid of pain,
a place I shall always remain.
The starless empyrean, I now reign.
Adrift, beyond the ether,
beyond this earthly plane,
lies a realm devoid of pain,
a place I shall always remain.
The starless empyrean, I now reign.

Tbh I typically stay away from "tech death" bands. Seems like majority of bands now lack the melody and groove that used to be present when this shit was really gaining light. These guys are tight and technical but very groovy. It's like if Decapitated, Faceless and Soreption had a baby. Great work guys!!!
