Thoth’s Girl Wowee !! Let me just say I drove home from work in record time ! This album is off the chain my friends ! It’s frenetic tempo is infectious and you’ll be screaming alongside them in no time. What a joy this was to listen to 💙 I’ll be purchasing their other two albums right now. Favorite track: A Shade Darker Than Black.

Constant_Jay This is one of the few albums that benefits from being short. Perfectly crafted from start to finish.

Mountains that would block the sun Leave the land in dusk till dawn The withering of hope's last leaf Signifies the decline Beasts circling, sensing prey Smelling turmoil and dismay Carrion assemble just in time Just in time for the feast Unable to tell night from day Those cast in shadow start to pray Believing to be last in line The chopping block so far away She seems to be fast asleep Somber and black Is this death or just a dream? Delusion takes control Obscure the truth within the fold The brightest light that shines above us Enveloped by this hole Gazing up searching for light Lost inside this raging blight The last sun that set upon this land Would be our final peace Left behind these husks remain Casting shadows upon the plain The maw of death hath opened up Its voracity won't feed to glut Cry out to the void, wait endlessly for a reply Waste away day in day out barely kept alive It was on that day thousands of years ago The light left never to return to this fragile world The answers aren't forthcoming, but perhaps that is answer enough. Did we deserve this? Perhaps this is what's left, and all there'll ever be Mountains that had blocked the sun Left our land in dusk till dawn Long ago hope's leaf withered and dried up Though one day the sun would rise And cause the filth to raise their eyes In the spring time the flowers bloom once more, But they're bleeding inside Is this somber dream a shade darker than...

Fiery the angels rose, and as they rose Deep thunder rolled around their shores Indignant burning with the fires of Orc Is this somber dream a shade darker than black? Gears underneath Tell me what you've seen Your vibrant eyes, a product of my conceit Planets crossed to hold this communion Do androids dream of electric sheep? Crossing abandoned caverns of a fading city I can feel the rain against my racing heart It's not easy to meet your maker, But that's what it is to be a slave Scrambling hands desperate to find purchase over a bleak landscape Soaked with what they would later call a second chance Soaked with what would be the last breath of a fading apparatus There exists sights beyond belief But they fade, left in their wake Attack ships off the shoulder of Orion C-beams glitter near the Tannhäuser Gate All those moments lost in time, like tears in the rain Time to die

Assembled in parts, a creation from the darkest of arts Lonely and abandoned, nameless faceless don't know who I am Wretched and disgusting, cast out from the temple left to wander the land Purposeless and left to die, my raison d'etre? Revenge comes to mind Dead flesh given life, but this life wants to die Playing god was the sin, that night a man was contrived Put on trial, kindred we may already be Pious? What's the difference? What's my god ever done for me? Righteous yet condemned Can't see past what they believe Thy adam I should be, Satanic daemonic voices speak through me Just sitting here fearing to live This man - unafraid to die Examination of a life To the last breath we will fight Stumbling upon the path. Is this truly the way? Waiting so patiently for the gate of mysteries Strip yourself of worldly feelings blind your eyes, deafen your ears This somber dream that's reoccurring paints the world a shade of black The flowers bloom - the lifeblood of the world will drain away But I'll remain, I'll carry on towards a shining day This existence, worthless scraps of metal Alchemy will turn this worthless corpse to gold, recalling a self most true But I will be reborn Embrace a greater form Heaven's millstone, forsaken for the stars Another kind of reckoning Revenge isn't the key to a life worth looking to lead Let the bastard live what is he to me? Ascension to new heights is what's been achieved A monster no more with purpose I've discovered the he
