Further down through the night
On a carriage of phantoms
Beyond the trappings of light
At depths none can fathom
A castle drenched in shadows
Before the lamp of the Eye
Where the grudge in the marrow
Will reach its peak as it dies
Rise up in the Tower
Climb high as they cower
Ascend into glory
With passionate fury
The throes of the spirit
Will carry the strain
From dead womb
To living tomb
Further up through the structure
With a burden of grand fire
Into a selfmade rapture
That none will desire
An act of mad liberation
Inside the lamp of the Eye
That like a pure revelation
Is neither a truth or a lie
Fall down from the Tower
Plunge deep as they cower
And dive into glory
With passionate fury
The crown of the spirit
Is worshipped through pain
From dead womb
To living tomb
I’ll worship the Tower
I’ll maim and devour
The sadness and glory
Of passionate fury.
Nearly a decade after their last LP, the Chicago post-metal trio resurface with a punishing concept album set in an apocalyptic wasteland. Bandcamp New & Notable May 5, 2024
The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 26, 2024
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
