Jono Schneider Brutal sludge that sounds like it will wash over you and destroy you.

Dave Aftandilian I get the same feeling of being dragged down deep into the muck as on _Slithering Bog_, but with more polish and hypnotic intensity. The added ritual elements work really well on this album; I see creepy visions of slimy half-human beings processing with halting steps, intoning chants in an unknown tongue that buzz in my head like black wasps, as they carry a screaming victim slathered in gore into the black depths of the swamp.

Deterioration Unearth Buried in the wreckage of false burials Petrified relics dripping ancient death Deterioration Unearth Beneath the burden of dark monuments Buried fragments of unremitting stories Deterioration Unearth Survival and it's impetuous pursuit lie feeble in it's own wake Outstretched aeon seething into arcane vision Sonic cataclysm over sentient waters

Alchemical process of self destruction Mirroring archetypal patterns of hermetic memory Cognitive Dissonance Derealization Depersonalization blocking pathways of reflection Onset of psychosis relinquished by laws of introspection Unearthing the tried Black sand desert below azure sky Illuminate inward world

Diseased Martyr Unable to ascend Offers desperate sacrifice In paralysis of sleep Whose dead is this to redeem? In primordial dream remnants of ancient self persist Offers desperate sacrifice In paralysis of sleep, pleading Whose dead is this to redeem? Consciousness stream stray eternal Beneath the weight of cyclical seasons Wander, despot Drudging through a wasteland subconscious Slowly drowning

Dead Rituals 08:53
Slowly fading into obscurity Drifting closer to uncertainty What begins must end All the same in this wicked game Taking up space until we leave this place I can hardly believe what is happening Is this the prophecy? Slowly fading into obscurity Drifting closer to uncertainty All works will come undone for the sake of no one What was is soon to be forgotten Buried within the crypt of time A murky memory is all we're destined to be
