Conviction
04:40
|
|||
|
Dissimilate,
To dismantle the system of the beast...
Innocent soul, fall to these...
Deceptions,
With time infinite you'll have no,
Redemption...
Welcome to the shadowed dimension,
Everything is upside down (upside down)
The world you know,
Is deceived by the grace of darkness,
It's time, fire from the skies, we're all convicted.
You are chained and hellbound,
Already gone,
Conviction,
Imprisonment for eternity.

New Zeitgeist
02:57
|
|||
|
Spirit of the age,
Indoctrinate,
Natural selection,
Dig our graves.
You are not something you aren't born into,
Don't let the curse consume your innocent soul,
Two is all there was,
Nothing more,
Find the answer,
In your breath.
Seek death.
Your death is our gift to you.
Your death is our gift to you.
There still is time,
To escape this new zeitgeist.

No Formidable Solution
04:20
|
|||
|
It was late on a weary cold winter night,
When I witnessed an anomaly radiating bright,
It's appearance was subtle, gone in a blink,
You and I won't escape the devilish vice,
For we are eternally demoralized by devise.
I will see to it that there is no resolution,
Desolation,
Between you and I there is no formidable solution
It is through the shadows I will retreat,
Never to be seen on this wicked venture..
In my prison of apathy follow the tragedy
Surveillance of the highest order,
Can't be free of the hell I create.
|
||||
5. |
||||
|
I soar on the wings of a vile angel,
Blood and ashes consume whatever desire,
Falling down,
I can't seem to hold on to my own haven,
Mark me with the disposition to rule in hell.
I am the imperator,
Hold me high in your grace,
The nightworld calls again,
Can't rest this wicked soul.
In the dark my legion will manipulate,
Through the plasma images that burn,
Lost apathy, forever an atrophy,
Rise on fear and emotion,
Fall victim to my web of shadows again.

Black Mirror of Fallacy
05:17
|
|||
|
Escape the black mirror,
Your missed misdirection is fear,
Escape the black mirror,
Your misconception is dear
So when death hums near,
Haunting echoes you'll hear.
Mirror
Flashbacks of past demons appear,
To tell a tale that our world is a personal hell,
It is where illusionary dreams entail.
So what will you do?
Will you shatter the illusion and awaken your peers?
Or will humanity forever be enslaved to their black mirror.

Cult Memoriam
03:44
|
|||
|
I am free so free,
A promise for infinity,
With the best of me,
That nothing will stop me,
From being free.
Rest forever those in hypnosis,
A cult memoriam.
Not even the shadow kingdom,
Can keep me chained,
No plague of ideology,
Will change my ways.
Rest forever those in hypnosis,
A cult memoriam.

Aquarius Rising
04:01
|
|||
|
The implications of our suffering,
Casts a shadow of misery down upon us all,
Unity is the key.
Don't fear the woes,
Expanded consciousness, it time we take control,
Eccentric voices guide us through with rebellious spirit,
Aquarius rising.

Dismal Nightmares
03:38
|
|||
|
Don't surrender to the beast,
An infliction of no godly relief,
Wicked dimensional beings reap through,
The portal to the mortal world,
We live out a nightmare,
In the deception of our minds.
You will remember the oath you take,
For if you forget, your soul is ours to take,
So begin now the reaping of humanity,
Archon, let it be you at our command
Feel the anger let it boil,
Long for conquest, of humanity's desire,
In remembrance of a broken spirit,
The innocent will burn in a deathly fire.

Phantom Gathering
04:29
|
|||
|
We stand in the puddle of blood,
As victims of prophecy's doom,
We are in the wake of gloom,
The end of the world has begun.
What is done will be done,
And from tragedy darkness will come,
Twin of shadow haunt my soul,
I will show you the insanity of the world.
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
Wicked vendetta of hatred plaguing a lively world once more,
The dimensional shift has awakened us to explore.
Now reset and rule as one,
The time has come,
Embrace the throne,
In this new shadow kingdom.
They won't let go
No they won't go,
They won't let go,
Of all of their control.
They won't let go,
No they won't go...
Until they rule the world.
The seeds are sown,
And the lie are shown,
Fortify your walls,
Free your soul,
Lead the world to rebel,
From all the deceptions..

This album sounds like it was recorded inside of a dream. Soothing melodies, distant vocals and amazing beats - Endlhëtonëg is simply something else

The second half of the closing piece, Howling' resonates the experience of a mountain hike during a sunny autumn day, the shrieking sounds reverberating against limestone pillars that is what i imagine.

I saw these guys on a tour with Finsterforst years ago. It was the tour to this album. Great performance.

Joseph Hawker subverts the musical and sociopolitical status quo with a black metal triptych that's as incendiary as it is impressionistic.
