lyrics
SHACKLING THE LONG USURPED
Caged in barbed wire
Like animals penned
Trapped in "safe" havens of human dissent
Dumbfounded that it's come to this
All that disdain for the so called insane
Dragging the corpse of your "so sure" reality
Completely fucked in this nightmare
Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch your children starve
Crawling through the dank shit & despair
Praying to your god
The tragic flaw of your imagination's figment
You've denounced all the signs & now you plead "why?"
Shackling the long usurped
In shame you grovel on battered knees
Your soul a petty coward
Betrayed by the hollow depths of your beliefs
And their worthless promise
Choke on the words of your barren honored pride
Your failed insight is death deserving
Embrace your punishment, drown in the cruelty
As your "hand me down faith" collapses
Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch you children starve
Crawling through shit & despair
Praying to your god
The tragic flaw of your imagination's figment
You've denounced all the signs but now you realize
Shackling the long usurped
As time harvests the worthless & weak
Drink the fluid of agony's spoils
You chose safety over liberty-Dark Force Fodder - Dark Force Fodder
Pure torture soaks the carnal ground
Fear & anguish the very air to be breathed
Chains from conception materialize-Dark Force Fodder - Dark Force Fodder
Impaled on solution
Stabbed with decline
Force fed with darkness
A shattered spirit crucified
Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch your children starve
Crawling through stagnant shit & despair
Turning on your god
Still sure to blame something nonexistent
You denounced all the signs but now you realize

Distilled death metal with catchy riffs and well written songs. It's not reinventing the wheel or anything but it's osdm, if that's what you want look elsewhere. grahamy

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic

This is the most personally appealing piece of music I have run into in a long time - from the beautiful lyrics and art and the crushing, non pretentious gorgeous heavy music. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, crushing - are there are other words? Gorgeous, exquisite.... sock4never
