lyrics
This is for the man who smiles with assurance. No hint of feigned composure. He breathes the same stale air and breathless cold, I level my distrust. In they way he lacks concern, for himself or growing old, is this just delusion? Bred of restlessness and fear? This is resentment of every insecurity. Longing seems to drive us all, the unfulfilled grasping for something more. Helpless desperation, curse us all. Endless spiral of doubts upon doubts. Selfish deconstruction, are you all my own? Descending inward within myself. Blood runs thick but it runs through us all. Are you heartless? Aren't we all? I am heartless.
Murky, bottom-heavy doomy metal that sucks you in and swallows you up. I love how the album moves from swamp as metaphor for the self-delusions that hold us back to bogs and the ancient remains they conceal within as pathways to deeper, terrifying spiritual awakenings that reveal the primeval horrors that lurk just at the edges of our consciousness. Dave Aftandilian
On their ferocious self-titled debut, the Australian punks pit d-beat percussion against gnarled, metallic melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 3, 2024
