lyrics

When the solitude feels like a warm blanket over the body so tired from the purpose one shall give to an absurd existence, the fear of death visits like an old friend. It feels sickening to nourish him again.
A life of porcelain.
Inscribing meaning and sense into a sculpture made out of skin, made out of glass, made out of grains of sand, made out of stigmatized dreams; indoctrinated the art of perverted ontology, made out make one sick and frightened. Thousands of days to build up on dreams of those who have already vanished. This legacy scars ones skin and shatters all the beauty within. What you made was beautiful, but like everything it will be dead in the end.
And with closed eyes - distanced from reality and from everything that weighs so heavy and makes the walls closing in - the knowledge and undeniable fact, that we all are going to die, feels like the only thing that is for certain.
The mind is infested, yet also chilled by the necessity of how life is going to be.
It’s going to be filth and scum and pain and fears and hopes and dreams and love and loss and senseless fight to survive all of this.
And when the worms feed on our flesh there will be nothing left.

Moral Bombing (Emotive Noise Grindcore from Dortmund) One of the best bands in the hood, the nicest people around and the noisiest shit you've ever witnessed. Straight to your face. Grimheart

Doom Metal has finally realized its unholy fusion with Black Metal perfectly by this point. Annihilation Rite perfectly fuse slow, hypnotic dirges with the grime of nasty Death Metal and the suffocating atmosphere of Black Metal. This band will do great things. 4.5/5 ClassyMusicSnob
