Glorieuse Ordure Plus j'écoute cet album et plus il me plaît. J'apprécie beaucoup le contraste saisissant entre ces grognements monstrueux et la musique sombre et mélancolique.

flightoficarus (Metal Trenches) A very unique mix of brutal death metal vocals a la Wormed with a more progressive and even jazzy approach to instrumentation. Interesting contrast. A little Artificial Brain... but weirder.

1.
By a silent and deep pond’s edge A frog resides, guardian of the pledge I confide my troubles in the echo of his chants Beneath the crescent moon, I release my heavy stance I bear the weight of burdens unknown Imposed by destiny A cruel game thrown He offers a comforting echo A sweet symphony In this secret dialogue My soul finds harmony He provides an echo of truth A newfound calm In his amphibian voice The frog remains An echo I embrace In this fleeting moment, liberation takes flight And within myself The strength to embrace my own light The frog whispers hopeful words to me By the pond’s edge, I find my solace
2.
In the fleeting embrace of the ethereal Time itself surrenders to a silent ballet Pretend, a bit more Smile wide, but it’s thin In the neon lights, I paint another story Drift away on the waves of artificial delight But echoes of emptiness persist through the night Pouring laughter like it’s going out of style Shadows waltz, secrets within the fold Nights wraps me in mysteries Stories yet untold Exploring dim corners Passion veiled in night Where the obscure whispers weave tales in moonlight

Oblivion 04:03
Lost in the rush, each week ends the same Immersed in a shameless world The rhythmic pulse, the raving crowd The only escape from my pride Euphoric dive to the abyss Where pain and pleasure cease to exist This state, my only guide Will my sun rise again A life so cruel, tasteless and gray I need it all to fade away But I sink deeper in the void Where chaos reigns Vision is blurred, senses are dulled I see the world in shades of evil But I still desire, for one night To feel alive before mourning light Lost in the mist, I clutch onto my essence As I dance in the Devil’s presence My senses are dulled, my soul full of corrosion But I keep pursuing this strange illusion They say this gradually drains me That it’s dragging me towards misery But in this fleeting moment, I am weightless Like a bird flying above, fearless How can I resist the temptation Of thornless roses and mind stimulation I know deep inside that this is a cursed deal That kills me more than it heals Yet I keep drinking the divine poison Looking for salvation before self destruction
4.
I stand motionless, feet trapped in the mud Waiting for days that never arrive Illusions are gilded prisons They shine but lead nowhere Mirrors shatter, revealing emptiness Each reflection a lie that tightens its grip I wander through abstract labyrinths Where every turn brings me back to the same place Reality dances around my dreams And I crumble in this endless nightmare I scream in silence
5.
Like a gentle venom, it poisons my veins Reviving the flame of my ancient pains Its deceitful caresses soothe my sorrow A precarious balance that consumes my being Alcohol, like a morning bird Sings its melody Alluring and cruel It carries away my life’s decree The days become a long twilight’s embrace Illusions, mere raindrops, vainly fall Dreams dim, their radiance enthralls A predator lurks In Shadows he resides Devouring promises, where hope subsides My soul fractures, ensnared by deceit In its treacherous grasp, I find no retreat
6.
Ailments of a brain overworked Marked under eyes Wrinkling face warped by negative thoughts Slouched, counting blades of grass Frozen to the core, soaked in stormwater He rises then staggers Waddling in murky water Wandering, aimless as a dog battered Smothered by withering self loathing He talks to fauna and flora Will flowers grace his grave Or will nettles smile to his cadaver Splashing water on his face as purification Like an infant, a being close to unlife And if the silence was the scream that I can’t hear A desperate call Bewildered about what awaits me beyond this night If lights will be brighter after indistinctness
7.
Remain forever in this alternate universe Unwilling to escape the dopamine rush I admit my denial, so it's not denial Let me keep going even if I speak to trees Is fulfilment worth the price of the sacrifices it requires Take the paths to the first sounds Violence dancing in my brain Forgetting myself at water's edge, geese becoming talkative Each light a mesmerizing show I lose myself deep in the forest Whispering secrets to the brustling leaves My thoughts reverberating in the stream Even though the sun caresses my bruised body Tears on my smiling face Do you not see what's hidden within
