lyrics

Run, and never come back. The hour is upon you. Never come back. The measure of your failures is the sum of what you are. Where will you fly, child? Far beyond my reach? How will you fly, child, so fast and so far that you might outpace the sun? Who in his right mind would go on with this pathetic labor, long after hope and beauty are gone? You've lost everything. Go, break your back. Grind your face in the dirt. You asked and you'll receive. Here is watered wine, given to you in scorn. Swallow it down until you choke, and die in a corner, a martyr without a god. Who in his right mind would go on with this pathetic labor, after everything? Come, come, surrender to the weakness of the moment. Bow down and become empty. I'll give you all you need, and take everything you are. Raise your head up high. Close your searching eyes, and open your mouth wide. You're nothing but a slave. Who in his right mind would cast off his every dream to go on with this pathetic labor, after everything?

Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius
by Abyssal

Fractured songwriting under layers of dense, suffocating atmosphere, and some amazing riffs that combine dissonance with a great sense of melody. Black Harvest

Vast Chains
by Jute Gyte

Twisted, insistent guitar work that drags you into a forest with very few clearings. Unsettling and unresolved, yet it's a wholly worthwhile journey if you listen with your full attention. Black Harvest

Rape Crisis Actor

A dissonant death-grind project from Kishor and vocalist Nick Cacioppo of LI grindcore band The Communion. Black Harvest

These guy's love the Devin townsend's Epic sound Which sounds as if its from another reality, And they make their own Hyper yet drifting Similar to seeing a comet whizzing by the atmosphere. A joy to witness but over, As soon as the majesty of it all sinks in! John Chaos Alexander
