lyrics

Lurking, slithering
Destined for the darkness
Entrapped by its snare
Let it all sink in
Let it overcome you
Give in and join me in the depths

Valley after valley
Miles of decay
Does it even have an end?
Withered souls enticed by the shade
Enveloped by looming mist, an ever-present shroud

The struggles I face
I can't escape this hell that beckons me
Drawing me in with its cold embrace
I give in and stare into the void

I feel nothing
A hollow vessel of a man
A vast ocean of emptiness
Overcome by a blackened allure
Tossing all my dreams aside

I thought I knew you but I don’t even know myself
How can any of this be real?
How can any of you be real?

I stare into the void
How can this be real?
I stare into the void
How can you be real?
I stare into the void
I thought I knew you but I don’t even know myself

Destined for the darkness

I feel nothing
A hollow vessel of a man
A vast ocean of nothingness
Tossing all my dreams aside
All alone in a crowded room
Laid to waste inside this tomb
Broken and beaten
Death by misery

Lurking, slithering
Let it overcome you

The struggles I face
I can't escape this hell that beckons me
Drawing me in with its cold embrace
I give in and stare into the void

Wretched Existence
by Before The Harvest

supported by 5 fans who also own “In The Depths (feat. Orion Stephens)”

Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson

Excellent tech death from Canada. Consistently good throughout the album, with strong riffing and musician-ship. Listening to the whole album in one go, I find myself lost in the melodies and it is all over much too soon. 4 out of 5 mangled distortion pedals. King Jonas the Humble
