lyrics

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

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! doive

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
