Predation
05:07
|

A crescent illuminator watches this witching hour
As you run with desperate haste
Beasts not of this world trail the scent
Awaiting the moment you're torn asunder
Voraciously chasing defenseless prey
On this night of untold darkness
They spread their blackened wings
Awaiting their fatal harvest
And the bloodshed that it brings
Crimson seeps from lacerated skin
As you feel every rip and tear
A once-breathing vessel to quench their thirst
Leaving behind a most gruesome sight
Voraciously chasing defenseless prey
Leaving desolation in their wake
On this night of endless darkness
They spread their blackened wings
Awaiting their fatal harvest
And the bloodshed that it brings
You slam the doors and try to hide
But through the mist, cuts blood red eyes
[ Solo - Jacob N. ]
The beacon of the night is a portent of ruin
As they go to the ends of the Earth
Bringing bloodshed and hopelessness
So fear for your life as day turns to night

The Prophecy
03:45
|

|
I have summoned you to carry out my wrath
Those who rejoice in my triumph
Listen a tumultuous noise
As they come from the ends of the heavens
Weapons of indignation
The cruel day is coming
To desolate the land
And destroy those within it
Weep, for the day is near
Every heart shall melt with fear
The rising sun will be darkened
And the moon will not give its light
The heavens will tremble
The earth will shake
As we cease their wickedness
The cruel day is upon us
To desolate the land
And destroy those within it
Weep, for the day is near
Every heart shall melt with fear
Terror pain and anguish
Will grip them as they writhe
The world as you know it
crumbles before your very eyes
As you turn and flee
with those running for their lives
[ Solo - Connor M. ]
As you’re cast down beside those fallen by the sword
Your body joins the pile, trampled and ignored
Weep, for the day is near
Every heart shall melt with fear
Terror pain and anguish
Will grip them as they writhe

Absence of Truth
02:38
|
|||
|
You view the world through a lens so narrow
Locked inside delusion
Dead man’s words ringing inside
Your mind filled with thoughts not your own
Thoughts not your own
We suffer and wither away
In the absence of truth
We find ourselves confined and paralyzed
In the absence of truth
We wither away
[ Solo - Connor M. ]
These words form the walls of your prison
A life sentence you blindly obey
Dismiss any opposition
Silence your mind and fall into place
Fall into place
We suffer and wither away
In the absence of truth
We find ourselves confined and paralyzed
In the absence of truth
We wither away
It takes one spark
It takes one flame
To light the way
Illuminate
We suffer and wither away
In the absence of truth
We find ourselves confined and paralyzed
In the absence of truth
We wither away

Departure
03:56
|

Left with more questions than answers
As I embark for the unknown
A reel of memories plays in my mind
And blinding light calls me inside
Accepting the truth that we all must face
Comfort washes over fear as I slip away
I feel the pull of the other side
Tearing me away
As suffering fades
Vacuous eyes slowly closing
As I leave this world behind
Darkness wraps its arms around me
But in the distance I see the most blinding light
I step inside
Vast and empty
This land of eternity
I try to scream, but no sound leaves
I fall to my knees as emptiness takes hold of me
Time is now meaningless
Forever, my soul wanders this abyss

Into Depravity
03:18

I am death
Darkness manifested
Left without a purpose
Humanity revoked
Horrified I watched my tie to sanity ripped away
Labeled a witch and burned at the stake
Pointing their fingers, they shriek heresy
Mindlessly sinking to depravity
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you’ll come to find
I walk the earth now wandering alone
Searching for answers that never come
How could these people just stand aside?
Watching the innocent wither and die
One year has passed now since that wretched day
This human affliction I will erase
Not one soul leaves this place today
The sins of these people washed away by flame
Cold dead eyes
Staring into you
Tremble and plead
If you think it will save you
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you will come to find
There is nowhere to turn
Now the flames surround you
A hellscape of your own creation
[ Lead - Connor M. ]
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you will come to find
There is nowhere to turn
Now the flames surround you
A hellscape of your own creation

The Adversary
03:23
|

|
Today I rise above
Usurp the throne
Wage war in heaven
And claim my rule
Today the almighty
Falls from the sky
At first light of morning
Your father dies
From this day on
I will be known as adversary
The tops of mountains and clouds beneath me
Paradise lays silent
As time seems to crawl
Speechless expressions
Watching heaven fall
A choir of angels
Weeps to the sky
As the throne lies empty
I hold his head up high
From this day on
I will be known as adversary
The tops of mountains and clouds beneath me
From this day
My name lives
on your lips
Forget not
Lightbringer
Morning star
Abaddon
Lucifer

Imprisoned
05:36
|

|
Am I more than the sum of my fears,
Or will trepidation define me?
Legs chained to the floor
Looking forward, never moving
Locked in a glass cell
I see the world passing me by
Merely spectating
Victim to the passing of time
Will I see the day
When I can leave these chains behind?
These thoughts are binding me
Keeping me from pressing onward
This is the power of fear
Restricting my true potential
Locked inside of myself
My mind is my captor
Staring through the bars
I see my end stepping forward
[ Solo - Connor M. ]
Will I see the day
When I can leave these chains?
Will I see the day
When I let myself free?
[ Solo - Jacob N. ]
I awaken to the sound of shattering
And find these chains undone
An extended hand reaches out to me
I have no choice but to accept

Hype is a funny thing. Usually when I hear everywhere "Dude this shit is 🔥" or even the dreaded and oft-used "AOTY!!" bullshit, I roll my eyes. And I rolled my eyes last year on the hype train for Carnosus. But again, for every thousandth breathless fanboy review I've seen, sometimes the album exceeds the expectation. So I will confidently tell you that, yes, "This shit is 🔥" as I wait for Willowtip to release that sweet Green Ghostly vinyl variant domestically 🤣 Finally a win for my wallet!

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release!
