lyrics

Behold, a fire shone a light onto the wretched that walk the dark spreading their plague
A fear fed in our darkest nights, A fear that never rests
Like a sound of cracking thunder, Like a horde that wants you dead

The swarm, it closes in
Takes hold of a life condemned, a mind that spiralled down into eternal damnation
A mindless hunt of insanity, a limbless dance of art
To bear the hunter’s mark in a world that fell apart

A fire burns bright this evening, sets a tone to feast
A haunting melody echos to call their relentless misery
A suffering brought upon humanity, the destruction of life itself
A psychotic retribution to feel the infection spread throughout this world

Consumed to black corruption at its peak
Vicious minds brought a war to see their puppets bleed
As a dying race, as they drop one by one
The reign of night has begun forevermore

Delirium claims your veins, a progressive fate
A life that fought for far too long, a life that spiralled down
For a sense of salvation pray to your deity
For as long as you breathe it’s your blood they seek

This album erupts with technical proficiency and head-swaying good melodies that kept me up for hours. Piper Haqim

A crispy, perfectly blackened serving of melodic tech-death that always leaves me wanting more. Not sure I've ever just listened to this EP once. Great production, great riffs, and fantastic atmosphere throughout. If you ever wished Inferi would lean further into their tech/black inclinations, this is the band for you. Facepalming Panda

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso
