Awakening

woken up inverted in silent flight
room of distant mirrors on the horizon
nova radiating death of crushing dark
blindfolded but can see the great dimensions
helmsman at the gate of space awaits
heavy breath, sludge air in your chest awakens
helmsman at the gate awaits
heavy breath, sludge air in your chest. AWAKEN.
patterns of light
secrets find their way
nova radiating death crushing of dark
cerebral map of mind's eye shows the path
room of distant mirror drawing nearer
WOKEN UP INVERTED IN SILENT FLIGHT
BLINDFOLDED BUT CAN SEE THE GREAT DIMENSIONS

Withered
04:32
|
|||
|
king james
with his scribe
of non-sense
written control
with the blood of peasants
holy might
in its judging kingdom
all naysayers
sent to die
the word of man
is finite
withered from the inside
swan song is sung now
thine end is nigh

Self-destruction
04:25
|
|||
|
wicked in descent to destroy
guarded by the tombs of the ancients
unholy saints appear out of darkness
ripping the earth from its axis
watching man evolve for several millennia
reaching the unavoidable, our demise
catastrophic in nature full of hate
human genome set to self-destruct
atom exploding says the glass is empty
ghostly demons arise from the grave
watching man evolve for several millennia

To Create An Apparition
05:43
|
|||
|
spilled blood
in violent strikes
monks surround
in strict silence
sacrifice sent on high
screams sent out
that deafen the bitter quiet
sacred circle on the cliffside
tired eyes of
sleepless children of the night
lifted spirit in black peace
body lowered into darkened seas
separation begins
to create an apparition

Imminent Death
08:02
|
|||
|
in the darkest skies
drops of blood that soak the ground
terrorizer, man of hate
imminent death machine
lost myself inside the sea
changing tides left me adrift
dark blanket enveloping
shotgunned from where i was ripped
cannot see my reflection
sunk into the blackened water
dying to live above
rising on the waters surface
LIVE. OR DIE. THERE IS NO FUTURE.

The Seance
04:08
|
|||
|
rising above raised hands
channeled into darkness
seance of the undead
reborn in the black moon
wicked without color
blackest night of horror
omen scattered lighted way
slip deeper into Satan's gaze
quiet on the open grave
silent come and steal the dead
turning round the ether's chasmic grasp
can you feel the darkness fill the air?

Widowmaker
12:08
|
|||
|
banished on an island
locked in silent stride forever
fire sent high for no man
left to see the hand of death
wind and thunder
water edges closer
calls out below you
six feet under
this ocean grave
in dismal passage
a hollowed corpse
the soul returns to the sun

Filthiest Sludge record I've ever been deafened by!! Riffs are disgustingly heavy, the pounding of the drums is ferocious, the bass is gnarly as shit, & the vocals are pure evil!! ALL HAIL DOPETHRONE🤘

The Belgian band explore heavy psych, tribal rhythms, free-jazz freakouts, meditative drone and the vast, shadowy spaces in between.

This is a difficult album to even begin to write about. I wouldn’t say there are many albums I enjoy more than tyrant, regardless of genre. Every song on here is so massive and so crushing and yet so serene and beautiful too. Fucking chained to the bottom of the ocean feels like it’ll turn my brain into a formless goo that will then leak out of my nose.
