lyrics
the distant rumbling dictates something deep inside
some unnatural culling, some undisciplined calling
some indistinct nature buried within
and although i've imprisoned these desires
with each thundering roar, it rattles these cages ever so slightly more
it haunts my cerebral core, an impartial detour
the atmosphere screams in archaic atrocities
ancient tongues wailing in a discordance of obscenities
a primordial pulsing resonates in deliberate timing
unearthing nature's wroth in the intricacies of lightning
this electricity embodies me, in constant mockery
each new flash of light, another harrowing slight
another welcome contrast to the pervasive night
and as the rain echoes against the pavement in solemn refrain
i begin to recognize the irony in my surname
an inner context as chaotic as the atmosphere
a carnal connection with nature's aggression
an archetype of unbridled passion
a paradigm, an ideal
a boy lost in the adverse winds of his own zeal
as an aberration of oblivion
consorts with a callous charm
oblivious to the wake of his own harm
intrepid indecision improvised to impress the populace
enough of this
desperately defying the draw of seclusion
to break the constitution of our own delusion
tirelessly the hands grasp for genuine praise
as we journey through this fog-ridden haze
venturing deeper into Apathy's maze
in the most enigmatic of ways
as an aberration of oblivion
consorts with a callous charm
oblivious to the wake of his own harm
intrepid indecision improvised to impress the populace
enough of this
desperately defying the draw of seclusion
to break the constitution of our own delusion
tirelessly the hands grasp for genuine praise
as we journey through this fog-ridden haze
venturing deeper into Apathy's maze
in the most enigmatic of ways

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
When it comes to the "atmosphere" in "atmospheric black metal", this release probably succeeds the most in making me feel like i exist within this universe of music. domfabio
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
The San Francisco quartet’s latest effort takes their post-metal to atmospheric new heights, with a resultant sound bordering on the transdimensional. Bandcamp Album of the Day Sep 20, 2018
