lyrics

They came, compelled and enlightened my will to kill
They came inside, forced in dictated rituals
These dreams, they drowned me in seas of uncertainties
Their murmuring mesmerized my unsound mind, seized

What if I’m just a pulse within an empty shell?
What if my purpose, my powers, were to possess?
What if bliss’s blessings could spread only through pain?
What is liturgy, if not the wholeness of me?

Ingraining within, pulsating, binding me through
It’s slow rooting in, it’s held over my being
My love for lives, for sacrifices is pleasing
I’m not myself now and I’m looking to find you

Arouse me my muses, cry for me; bleed for me
Your agony inspire me notes so lovely
Let loose to compose my mellifluous rapture
Whence stem the climax of my will, my soul’s scripture

They are you and I am them hence we all are one
In a symbiosis of spells, spirits and corpses
Blood mixes my cum as I cut you, cut myself
Blood tied, lied down, my semen flows through and on you

Emptiness fills The Void
by Stortregn

supported by 7 fans who also own “Ritual”

Swiss Melodic Black / Death Metal. I never wrote anything about this & given that I listen to it time & again, I really should! This is incredibly technical & amazingy good! I am having multiple eargasms & goosebumps for the entire duration of the album! Plus they have a new album coming out in a couple of months that I cannot wait for! A criminally underrated band... Stortregn rule! Highly recommended!!! bmurator

Adversary Omnipotent
by Enfold Darkness

Adversary Omnipotent should be in the library of every extreme metal fan. It’s been a favorite of mine for a while. The blackened aspects make it far more appealing than the average tech death record. On another note, if you love this album you should be listening to XUL as well. Metallurgical Fire

I usually don't even like low growls that much, but this record is something else. The guitars sound great. The album flows really well and all the songs are easily distinguishable. Easily one of the best albums of the year. lowpassportion
