I have been here for millennia
This life is not my first and it is not my last
Tortured by immortality
Plagued across my many lives
My future is destined to mirror my past
Visions of my death haunt me
I know exactly when, where and how I will go
Cursed to remember it all when I return
Shadows follow my every step
Forever in darkened days
Separating memories from reality
Why can't I stay here?
I'm finally content with my life, the life I have built
Why must it end?
Why must it fucking end?
Plagued across many lives
My future is destined to mirror my past
Please let this be the last
I'm ready to leave this all behind
I'm ready to let go
I'm ready to be free
This disease disguised as a blessing
Oh, how I hate it so
Release all that I am
With every waking moment, I'm eaten alive by guilt
With every passing day, I begin to wilt away
Everything I have amassed will amount to nothing
All that I am, tossed to the wind
My lament defines me
I’ve been failed by time
My time is near
I will meet my end once again
Please let this be the one to end it all (to end it all)
Death comes for me
Fuck, I knew that this wouldn't last
I am reborn for the hundredth time
This life is not my first and it is not my last
Plagued across many lives
My future is destined to mirror my past
Perpetual, I will never end
Everlasting, I will never end
Let me go
Let me die
I’m ready to leave all of this behind
Let the visions end
Let the memories fade
Take away the pain
My lament defines me
Why have I been failed by time?
Perpetual, I will never end
Everlasting, I will never end
Let the visions end
Let the memories fade
Take away the pain
Just let me go
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
Chicago deathcore outfit Into the Silo torch everything in sight on this searing new LP with riffs that will leave bruises. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
