lyrics

Countless suns snuffed out up here
as the ages came and went.
Born in defiance of
relentless lack of progress.

We are adrift amongst dead stars and ghosts of light long spent.
Hanging nowhere in the afterglow of happen-stance.
We are adrift; unhappy bi-products of irrelevance.
Insignificant accidents.

Jittering illusions of something resembling meaning.
Whimpering into insignificance
Once the last of the lights makes its excuses and leaves.
By chance we twist and turn here
Broken perception used as a weapon against the roaring night.
Cosmic dissonance warping whatever signals
May have given sense to this failed race.
Not afraid to face the also-rans.
Not afraid at all. Not afraid. Not at all.

Endless orbits
rolling around
in this desecrated tomb,
watching the suns rise,
the suns fall.
At least I imagine we do.

Countless suns snuffed out up here
as the ages came and went.
Born in defiance of
relentless lack of progress.
Tired sparks lining up
to fizzle out as if they never were.

Impatient listeners are weeded out in the opening 5 minutes, while those who persevere are treated to an unforgettable experience. This monster weaves an impossibly dense tapestry of sound with the replay value of a Final Fantasy. Scalding technical metal, rich chamber compositions and some trademark twists provide a great soundtrack to the lyrical concept. This seamless union between words and music creates a vivid and powerful narrative. Amongst the finest works of a one of a kind band. Entheogenesis

US Black / Death Metal. Another brain child of the extremely talented artist Naas Alcameth. This is seriously good destroys anything in its way! The music goes from BM blasts all the way to a near funeral doom with a ton of atmosphere & back again. The entire thing is haunting as hell from the first to the last note. I think it is time for a new album! It has been six years already... :) Highly recommended!!! bmurator
